Bangkok Hotels

[QUOTE=BananaBoi;2489496]I booked a Bangkok hotel yesterday. Couldn't believe how cheap they were. About 30% of the usual prices. Even places like Intercontinental beside Erawan Shrine were about 90 USD. Amazing.[/QUOTE]For what month did you book? Still seems like Thailand is still far from allowing people to enter the country.

[QUOTE=DannyDuck;2489668]Vegas hotels are so cheap they are attracting Hoodlums from all over the USA. Violence is up big on the Vegas Strip.

You got FBI walking Casinos now.[/QUOTE]On my last few trips pre-virus I stayed at Rio. Cost of the room (Mon-Thurs) was $0.00. Couldn't believe it. Of course there was still that damn $32/ night resort fee.

[QUOTE=Allover;2490036]For what month did you book? Still seems like Thailand is still far from allowing people to enter the country.[/QUOTE]In calendar year 2020. I'm working on a few things to try getting in. Remember I'm not a typical tourist. Free Cancellation on the hotel until the date of arrival so nothing to lose booking now.

I usually stay in an AirBNB towards Henderson to avoid ridiculous resort fees. Really want to go to Vegas but without buffets that takes a bite out of my desire to be there. Can only spend so much time in the Rhino and Sapphire VIPs.

[QUOTE=Qeast;2490288]You know that the Rio is still closed. The whole resort complex has not re opened.[/QUOTE]Is it still closed or Its re opened.

Was still closed first week of October when I was there. Also pretty much all the clubs closed, Sapphire I think was doing daytime pool party thing, but closed at night. Honestly vegas is trying and I commend the effort, but it's not much fun right now. You have to wear a mask even at the pool unless you have a drink in your hand. Put the drink down to txt and you get asked to put it on. It's cheap for the hotels, Mirage was $45, but of course the price doubles with the resort fee. You can go to any restaurant without a reservation though, but those are still full priced. So you are saving a lot on the hotel but that's it, everything else is still full priced and about half the restaurants are closed either all week or during weekdays and sometimes it can be real pain. At the cafe for example due to the spacing despite no guests there was a 40 min wait for breakfast. Didn't see any price reductions from the girls either.

Hyatt Regency Sukhumvit Soi 13 in Bangkok is offering a 1 year stay for 1 million baht. This includes 200 k baht in food and drink credits as well as access to the Club Lounge. If you discount the food and drinks, this works out to under 2200 baht per night in a nice hotel in a very prime location smack middle of the RLD. Personally I wouldn't go for it because I like to travel monthly when living in Thailand but some who only want BKK this is a steal.

I am in LOS and went in to talk to them about it. What you read is sometimes not what reality is. It is as noted. But as you pointed out one really needs to be in BKK for a whole long time. I wander to much to make it cost effective. But interesting.

Wow, so amazing thing Buddy I am a traveler and my next trip will be to Bangkok thanks for your info about Bangkok hotels thanks for everyone.

Its been a bit over 1 year that I made my 6th trip to BKK. I got so damn lucky. Just 6 months after I came back the damn virus hit. Had a great time as I usually do at my favorite massage places and the girls were great. It sucks that Annie's is gone, that used to me my favorite spot as it was for many of us. Question for whoever is there now: What's going on around Nana, is the area as dead as a morgue or is there activity?

Guys, adelphi suites or mercure Sukhumvit 11?

[QUOTE=Golds;2560781]Guys, adelphi suites or mercure Sukhumvit 11?[/QUOTE]I vote Mercure. Nice modern rooms with big walk in showers for two. More action on Soi 11 and I find the even numbered side of Sukhumvit more interesting. If the prices are about the same between those two hotels, I would choose Mercure.

[QUOTE=Golds;2560781]Guys, adelphi suites or mercure Sukhumvit 11?[/QUOTE]I prefer the Adelphi Suites. Good sized rooms especially the one-bed suite and one-bed premier suite, but the studio rooms are adequate too. And Monsoon restaurant and bar downstairs does an excellent buffet breakfast and is a great place in the evenings too. A good mix of clientele and great for people watching if on your own. I like Soi 8.

Or rather, I did when everything was open. Calmer than Soi 11, so quieter in the evenings. Easy access to Soi 6 past Lolly's and Kassalong, and on to Soi 4 for entertainment. Escalator up to Nana BTS station just around the corner on Sukhumvit.
