I will be travelling to Hong Kong and staying in the Eaton Smart hotel in Kowloon. Do anyone know if this hotel is girl friendly?
[QUOTE=Purple 2006]I would be in HK next month.
I have tried the 141 a few times in TST and MongKok.
141 standard package is usually 75min with 1 pop.
I see that some of the 141 gals talks about overnight service (0:00 hrs to 8:00 hrs)
Has anybody got any experience / feedback on this O/N service by 141 gals? Is it worth it?
Will they allow multiple pops in these 8 hours O/N?
Purple[/QUOTE]Rule of thumb for both 141 walk up and HG is 45 mins, never 75 mins!

All hotels in HK are GF - the bigger the hotel, the better. Just dont have them coming in looking like what they are during the daytime when there are families etc. around and you will be fine.
A funny thing happened to my air reservation. Continental Airlines cancelled their entire flight scheduled to leave Newark on Feb 4 arriving in HKG at 8:30pm Feb 5. Chinese New Year’s or somebody big bought the entire flight; I don't know. The rep could give me no explanation. But all's well that ends well. I am now booked to leave a day earlier and so I get an extra day in HKG. I have a free night coming from Marriott Rewards so I booked the Renaissance Hong Kong Harbor View Hotel for one night. Wanchai here I come. Is anybody familiar with the Harbor View?

Sounds strange somebody can book a whole flight
Might well be a reschedule due to aircraft rotations/maintanance, sometime it happens.
It does'nt seem you are complaining much! lol!
lucky you
On te way back to Europe from China via BKK at the Iceland volcano ashes time, I was already mouthwashering at the idea of 2..3...or more days forced stop over in BKK. Unfortunetely they put me on a back up flight taking me to Europe with not much delay: shit happens! lol

B Man, I am lol all the way to Neptune 2. Last year in N2 I met 3 very sexy Vietnamese girls. It was tough picking one of the three, especially when they took seriously my intended joke that all 3 girls come back and play with me in my hotel. I have never tried ménage a quarto; maybe I will this trip in AC or Penh. I know two girls can be great. Anyway, that night I picked the girl who was the most demure of the three and had a great time with her. She was my first Nam girl.
Now there are three months left until my 2011 blast off. I can’t predict all the adventures in store for me, but I know it’s going to be wild. Let me know if you are going to be in HKG or Macau then. I will buy you a drink.

Happy to' read your good luck with the Nams girls. Debated elsewhere already they can provide the best experience or the "worst" (or about). I have enrolled in the latters.
With one exception: a sauna girl at Emperor in Macau.
We also know it is harder for girls to be rushed at saunas.
I shall have 3 nights in macau in the second half of november.
As usual saunas are my entertainment targets.
Contrary to usual I will not stay at the Rio. It is so "comfortable" just to' take a lift and get into the fun. Emperor will probably see me there but one for the team has to go to Rio.

Natty,
I Usually book my flights 2-3 months, or even more, in advance and lately I have had a few such changes. Part of it is due to the Continental take over by United. Also had a HK-Detroit flight by Delta completely disappearing and was re booked to Detroit via Tokyo.
I used to stay at Renaissance Harbourview before I got an apartment here. It is a wonderful hotel with great view of harbour if you are on the right side. I actually watched 2 fireworks from my room on 2 occasions and had made a few fireworks of my own. The access to Wan Chai is easy and the place is GF as long as your date does not draw attention. There is also easy access to hotel via free shuttle from airport express and going back to airport you can book Hotelink shuttle that would pick you up in front of hotel and will drop you at T1 or T2.
Have fun and be safe,
APAC Man

No card swipe in lifts so access is easy.

Few minutes walk from N2, Amazonia...etc. Very GF although lobby patrolled at all ours never had any problems. All companions are treated like your wife! So so gym but very good pool/spa rea.
Ok, gentlemen, I'm new to the site, never knew anything like this existed in my wildest dreams. I've been RTTF for days now, and I feel like I've been drinkin' from the proverbial fire hose; quite enjoyable reading, I might add, and some of you clearly missed your calling as world class travel journalists.
To the point, even with all my homework done, I still have two quick questions of our more experienced seniors here, if I might. I will be in HK for two weeks the latter half of this month. For tactical reasons I have to keep my punting restricted to mostly daylight missions.
1) Is the run up to Shenzhen worth it for a day trip from HK? Multiple entry visa into PRC makes this do-able for me, and cheap mongering certainly has its charms but I wasn't getting much of a feel regarding the logistics of such a run from the SCZ forum. I realize answers to my question will simply be your opinion (quality vs. Price, etc), but that's OK.
2) I will save some of my valuable 'night time foraging' hours for a couple of runs to Macau, but am curious, do any of you more experienced HK mongers know if the better places (Rio, Massegem, etc) are open by noon or 1:00 PM on weekdays?
I've been 'trolling' for years throughout the Western Hemisphere, but other than a trip to PHILS, this is my first time to do some 'site-seeing' in Asia. If the fishbowls of Macau are anything like what I've experienced in Manila, (and as I've heard described here) this ought to be heaven on earth.
Thanks, in advance, for any input, and there will be in-depth FRs on my return.

[/QUOTE] The saunas are open 24/7. For a decent lineup in early afternoon, forget some of the smaller ones such as Massagem and stick to 18 and Rio (I would do 18). The smaller ones like Sanado, Golden, East etc. wont really have a good lineup until around 5pm except for perhaps Saturdays. I personally like the smaller ones better, but if f.ex. I had time between 1 pm and 6 pm, I would stick to 18 or perhaps visit Darlings (fishbowl place but not really a sauna as you leave after the deed is done).

Can't help you too much with Macau and Shenzhen. When in Shenzhen I have used the hotel saunas and the hotel in which I am staying to provide "entertainment". I have also gone into the dark alleyways at Siebu (take a deep breath if you are on your own) but I don't know if the barber shops are still operating.
However if you are restricted when in HK you might want to consider using K Pressure or 37 Dundas St. during the day. There are also the 141 girls etc and, if you are able to arrange it, hotel reservation girls are a good bet. I have never been let down in this providing you make your wishes known in advance. Get the girl to come to your hotel. An alternative if this is not possible is for you to go to their hotel. You might just be surprised at the "quality" hotels they use.

141 hotel reservation girls are a very good afternoon option. Tsim Sha Tsui and Causeway Bay have the best selections. There is a lot of info in this forum on how to make an appointment. There are some lovely Chinese girls available at the 700 to 900hk price level.
37 Dundas is definitely a must for your first trip. The service and prices are great, but the joint is a little dingy. No matter, you have to try the place. It is outstanding.

The lineup gets better as day turns to night. I always hold off until at least 4:45pm. If you can't wait Rio and 18 would be your best bets.

You got that right. The Macau high end saunas are pretty incredible. They don't call it Man's Paradise for nothing. But, as much as I dig Macau, my favorite watering hole is still Bangkok, the big mango.
I have a filipina friend coming to meet me in Shenzhen. She has a China visa already, but she can only fly into HK. She has been denied entry into HK before. I know its possible to go from Shenzhen to HK by ferry airport without going through immigration. Can she do the same in reverse?
