[QUOTE=Steve9696;2388370]Thanks for this. I think tho since we are officially staying elsewhere and this is just my "girls hotel" I will try to keep it to under $100/ night.
Given that I won't be sleeping there so street noise etc doesn't matter I am leaning towards Soi 11 because so much going on but close to Nana and Thermae. Considering The Eleven, Mercure, Aloft. Anyone care to weigh in on Soi 11 options under $100? (But probably over $50. I want it to be nice) thanks.[/QUOTE]Mercure is a great choice on Soi 11. Very modern, huge bathrooms with separate tubs and showers that easily fit 2 people. Girls love this place. Join the Accor frequent guest program. I sometimes get cheaper rates and usually get upgraded to even bigger rooms here. Several of us have made some detailed reports about this hotel in this thread. All the reviews here are positive.

The tuk tuk they offer to guest is not that convenient because you have to wait. You can also check out Dynasty Grande. Thermae girl will work to the hotel. It is pretty clean and spacious.

I frequently stay at the Aloft and don't find the walk burdensome. I have walked to Soi 24 from there.

Looking for a nice hotel maybe equidistant from cowboy and nana since I don't know where we will play yet will try Thermae also. Looking to spend about $100/ night but somewhat flexible. I am with a buddy so having a two bedroom suite and $200 ish a night would work good too. We won't actually stay here it's just for girl activities.
[/QUOTE]If you are wealthy then fine. However, it all sounds a bit strange if you are not going to stay there and only there for 1 hour per night. Are you thinking to impress these hookers with fancy accommodation? No I think not.
You have option to go to a massage shop and do the girl in house. No hotel needed. E. g. Doki Doki.
Most gogo bars have nearby ST (short time) Hotels for 300 baht per hour. On a non busy night I get to go over time at Asoke Place.
Some ST Hotels near Nana have a pricing option for 90 minutes or 2 hours.
I don't quite understand the need for fancy accommodation if you won't stay there and have a hooker for a very limited time. If you want to party a bit, with more than two persons in a room, ST Hotels can accommodate you. The advantage is you just take a room when you need it.
The big advantage of ST Hotel is it is in easy walk distance from the bar. Girls know where they are. Soi 7/1 has a ST Hotel too. Sounds like your time available for mongering is short. BJ bars can be suited to guys wanting a very quick experience, with limited time available. I usually wanted to fuck the girl as well (onsite room).

(Asoke Place online reviews usually say that it is on the low end, I would prefer a room that is a bit on the nicer side and a big bonus if they have mirrors.).

I don't know if I'm wealthy but I generally budget $2000-3000 a week when I do a girl binge and Thailand is super cost effective so I consider the room just a part of the budget. I really like the whole "take out" experience where you go back to the hotel and maybe even do some doggie at the window with a view. LOL. So I think I will do one of the Soi 11 hotels.
Thanks everyone for the advice! You guys are the best.
Hey guys,
Looking to interrupt my Phnom Penh Cambodia trip with a quick 2 night jaunt into Bangkok. I love the Nana area and was thinking the Nana hotel for convenience and location. I understand a few updates have taken place but if it's still a stinkhole, I will need something else. I just need simple, clean, and a decent bed. Talk me into enduring it for 2 nights or please suggest a similar place for $50-$70 for a Wednesday and Thursday night. Thanks in advance!

[QUOTE=Steve9696;2389373]Can't vouch personally but the Grand Sukhumvit and the Dynasty Grande are both at the high end of that but look super nice and right by Nana.[/QUOTE]Grand Sukhumvit is reported as not joiner friendly.
Dynasty Grande was OK last I stayed (3 years ago) but was getting to the "in need of a refurb / refresh" and their rates got to be uncompetitive.
Other options:- Citrus Suites (pretty new) or Phachara Suites on Soi 6, both good and joiner friendly but maybe above your budget depending on travel dates.
SM Grande Residence on Soi 4 just down from the Soi 6 turning had ok serviced apartments, although slightly aging. Far better value than Omni Tower further down.
Ibis (between The Dawin and Omni Tower) rates seem to have dropped a little. I guess the newish Novotel and Ibis Styles (same group, Accor) may have cannibalized some of their trade. Plus point, it's an Ibis so you'll know exactly what to expect. Negative point, it's an Ibis!
Lohas Residence should be avoided. Used to be very good but has now become the "go to" for our Middle Eastern friends when they want to behave in a fashion which would not be tolerated around Sois 3 - 5. Management couldn't care less.

I prefer Asoke Place for subtle reasons. Did not notice mirrors. Soi 4 and Soi 7/1 Aspira have ST rooms, as does Ruamchit Hotel at times. I really down know much about mirrors.
Yes Asoke Place is low end. It has a bed, aircon, bathroom, toilet. As long as I am not stabbed by bedsprings poking through, or a very smelly drain, I am okay I have seen absolutely foul ST Hotel rooms in the past elsewhere. There are probably higher class rooms elsewhere. Maybe PB Hotel (sub soi off soi 3) is a good one to try and ask for mirrors.
You can't meet all your requirements for standard and nearness and still be ST prices. If too fussy, take a normal Hotel.
[QUOTE=Nounce;2389711]There is one on the second floor of the restaurant across the street from Baccara.[/QUOTE]Is the restaurant The Old Dutch and is on soi Cowboy? Does the ST hotel has a name?
Hi guys,
I usually stay at the Pullman Asoke and go to Soi Cowboy but this trip have a one nighter and meeting friends so first going to Hooters Siloam then Nana Plaza for girlie bars. Is Crowne Plaza Lumpini cool if I turn up at 4 am with 2/3 girls or any recommendations within walking of Nana. Looking 4 Or 5 star. Thanks in advance.

General mongering or over the top rowdiness?
I like the location, it is quiet and although the address is Soi 2 there is a pedestrian entrance from Soi 4 just past Omni Tower.
Thanks.
