[QUOTE=Dorrty;1244301]Does anyone have any experience with Phachara Suites in Soi 6? It looks good on the website and I'm planning a long stay so there is a pretty good rate for 30 days. I'd be interested to hear opinions from anyone who has stayed there.[/QUOTE]I stayed there and like it. The price is good, the location is great and totally GF.
There have been some reviews complaining about thin walls, noisy hallways, unclean rooms, and exterior noise. Get a high floor room.
[QUOTE=Chill Out;1244482]Actually I've done it before. I just called the reception to arrange it. I asked the girl (who I already knew) to get the card from the reception and wait for me in the room. No problem.[/QUOTE]That is different, it is someone you knew before and could identify to the reception.
Johnvi mentioned "a girl" and I got the impression it was not someone he knew already.
[QUOTE=Johnvi; 1244108]Hey guys,
I will arrive at Bangkok airport on a Wednesday early morning at 1. 30am. Is there any way to book a hotel beforehand where a girl could be waiting for me (at around 2. 30am)?
Or what is the best option to get a girl for the night when I arrive? Till 8am.
Thanks in advance[/QUOTE]Yes, You can arrange a girl to wait for you in the Lobby. You can do this through some personal contacts or through escort sites.
Hotel will not allow the girl to check in unless her name is on the reservation and the room is paid for or girl puts the deposit.
If the girl is known to you it is ok. I have done it many times with my girlfriends. But always paid for the room in full and they have let my gf check in and wait in the room. Ofcourse there are some strict desk people who will not let any local single ladies check in by themselves unless accompanied by the foreigner who primarily booked the room.
If your flight arrives at 1. 30 am you will not be in Nana area till atleast 3 am or later. You will be extremely tired and I do not know why you are in a rush unless you are staying only one or two nights.
I have seen many girls hang around sukumvit and patpong area till 4 am. After you check in stroll around and check. There are also massage places which are open 24 hours. Yes, you can take a massage girl to your room paying barfine.
Most good looking girls will not be available late. Either they are already with somebody or they have made enough money for the night.
You can try your luck at biergarten. I believe it is open 24 hours- not sure now.

The location is superb, just steps from Soi 4 and then a few more steps to Nana Entertainment Plaza. The blocks in between are full of beer bars, food carts, restaurants and pubs, so the evening scene is lively and you'll have plenty fun when out and about. The hotel is also very close to the Nana station for the BTS. There is a 7-11 across the street.
The hotel is contemporary and clean, with the usual amenities you'd expect in a 3-4 star property, like wi-fi. 24-hour front desk, comfortable swimming pool with towel service, etc. Absolutely girl friendly. There are seven different room types, but even the most basic (the "studio deluxe") features a sitting area separate from the the bed, a kitchenette and plenty of storage space. The larger suites have balconies. And for the ultimate experience, check out the "one bedroom premier executive suite," with a huge outdoor terrace and a commanding view of the city. (See attached photos.)
Highly recommended. I would stay there again.

Bunky[/QUOTE]Quite impressive rooms! What about the price level?
Thanks Bunky and Luvpuss I might just go for it.
[QUOTE=Bionicman;1244689]Quite impressive rooms! What about the price level?[/QUOTE]Average price for what it is but they have some pretty nice deals on their website for long stays, that's what got me interested. I'm after a place for a month.
[QUOTE=Bionicman;1244689]Quite impressive rooms! What about the price level?[/QUOTE]You can usually get the standard (45 sq. M) for $65 and the next size for around $75. It is a good price for the quality of the place.

They are also willing to give long term rates for shorter stays then 30 days to returning customers. I had a double room 58/65 sgm room for THB 2. 000 per night including internet. Totally girl friendly. See there logo to the wall.
PM me for more info.
[QUOTE=Bionicman;1244689]Quite impressive rooms! What about the price level?[/QUOTE]I stayed in the "One Bedroom Premier" suite.

This is their best one-bedroom suite, and it was about 5,000 baht per night. Very pricy indeed, but it was only for a few nights and my holiday spending had been lower than planned so I splurged.
If you are interested in the one bedroom premier suite you should book far in advance. I gather from e-mail correspondence with the hotel that most are booked by long term guests and they rarely come available. In my case, they were only able to confirm the booking just a couple of weeks before I arrived.

I will be staying there for a low price of 780 baht plus tax per night. I hope it is a nice hotel.
[QUOTE=Big Joe 11;1245777]I will be staying there for a low price of 780 baht plus tax per night. I hope it is a nice hotel.[/QUOTE]Yes it is a decent hotel (4 star) , but is there a typo on your rate? I cheapest I have ever seen that place is about 1700 a night.
I've stayed at The Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit many times and never had a problem taking a girl to the Hotel. No giving I'd Card to the Reception. Straight to the room.
I am planning of visiting again soon. Getting bored of this Hotel. Has anyone stayed at The Fraser Suites Sukhumvit. Pricing is very good and the Pictures of the Hotel and room seem to be good. What I need to know if this Hotel is girl friendly.
[quote=irv washington; 1240085]can anyone let me know how common "laundry shops"/laundromats are in the sukhumvit area? preferably laundromats with staff service not self-service.
i'm planning 7 to 14 days in bangkok sometime this year. lots of great hotel info on this thread thanks to many great posts. but most of these places wouldn't have a washing machine and dryer in room.
i'm wondering if i should get an apartment with washing machine (at adelphi suites for example). or, are "laundry shops"/laundromats common in the sukhumvit area? in which case there's no need to get an apartment with a washing machine.
irv[/quote]i go to hispeed laundry on soi 13 but its a bit of a walk down the soi. [url]http://www.hispeedlaundry.com/[/url]

If you have been to BKK "many times", why don't you tell us a little about your experiences? Did you try searching GF hotels yourself. Obviously not.
This is info on GF hotels in the area.
Fraser Suites is and has always been.

But, I don't see the need for the nasty personal remarks. I don't find the questions stupid. And secondly, what has this question got to do with what I have posted in the past.
