  1. I agree with Herrby. I live in a large one bedroom in 50m from the Phra Khanong BTS and absolutely prefer it to Asoke/Phrom Pong. Month to month rentals can be very difficult to find and it will be more expensive.
  2. We had a great time. The bar area would be a great place to watch an event (like today's Melbourne Cup). Really enjoyed it
  3. anyone know a shop that might sell moissanite jewelry?
  4. what's better than showing up at a hotel and the room is much larger than expected? can confirm, Grand President has huge rooms and great area to stay
  5. gf took me for my birthday. she made reservations and we stepped out of the taxi and basically went straight to our table. Jay Fai cooking was fun to watch, the food and people watching were very good as well. because you need to make reservations well in advance or wait in line for hours i'm not likely to return but it was a great birthday surprise (especially when gf paid!). 10/10 great meal/BKK experience
  6. I used S44ROOM Sukhumvit Soi 44 this week. One soi away from Sleep with Me that i had been using but larger room, much cleaner and a better bathroom. paid 600 for a room with a balcony (but my gik wouldn't play out there). https://www.facebook.com/S44ROOM/ 100thb more than Sleep with Me but well worth it. i expect this will be my new go-to. You are renting the room for the night so no time limit and they had a key drop by the side door so you do not need to return to the front desk when you leave.
  7. i use Booking.com for Sleep With Me. never used LINE to contact them. i used booking.com and paid 500thb for Bedever Hotel at Phra Khaong BTS is afternoon. be sure NOT to book the loft rooms at Bedever. Fabz LINE: FabzClub
  8. i returned at 8pm that evening and the gate was locked and it was very dark. i sent a LINE msg and they responded at 9.30PM that all the ladies had full booking. i have not yet been back
  9. Yes. i am afraid the wife will have a tired husband who has been drinking all day for her Valentine. actual kickoff will be a bit after 7am i am guessing?
  10. "Sleep with Me" hotel Phra Khanong is not a short time hotel but at 400thb per night i use it like one. nothing fancy, just everything you need.
  11. good stuff thx you. can i say, the Soviet Room at LOVE VILLA HOTEL was... unexpected
  12. hoping to jump-start this topic. a list of ST Hotels would be very useful at this time. 39 Inn Hotel is not terribly near Sukhumvit but it has everything you need: https://www.instagram.com/39innhotel/ https://foursquare.com/v/39-inn-hotel/4c66db289cb82d7f8ed191d2
  13. looking to update to the new Samsung Galaxy watch this evening. where is the best place to shop?
  14. I have HBO GO and want to watch Hard Knocks which appears to only be offered on HBO MAX. Do i have to VPN to US and pay or is there another possibly FREE way to watch? https://www.hbo.com/hard-knocks
  15. I am dating an impressive new woman and struggling to find interesting things to do for dates when she asked if i would have a Christmas tree. i showed her the scene from Goodfellas where Henry brings home the tree ("Karen! I got the biggest one they had") and she told me about a 3 story Christmas super-store near Bang Wa BTS. We had a great time and the prices were really good. I paid 700thb for a 4ft / 1.5m tree. she had the best time getting drunk and decorating the tree. 10/10 would do again. I am attaching a scan of the map/contact details they gave and a picture of my Goodfellas Christmas tree (ordered a topper from Lazada which will arrive this week). Merry Christmas all Christmas tree spot .pdf
  16. The lovely and talented Dr Pavineee Didron at Smile Center Dental Clinic in Phra Khanong did excellent work for me. Super modern equipment (her husband is, or was, head of SE Asian operations for the largest dental supply company in the world so she has the most modern equipment) and good staff. highly recommended. I know she works from several locations but the clinic i visited was at Taisin Square between Soi 67 and Soi 69 next to the Phra Khanong BTS. 02-392-2953
  17. Looks nice. Have you stayed here? Just discovered Bourbon Street and i had a great dinner. really enjoyed it. i hadn't even thought of it for breakfast. i will have to check it out.
  18. What ever became of the proposed Rama IX Super Tower? i can't even find any information online about the status of project: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rama_IX_Super_Tower
  19. on my first trip to BKK in 2000 the BTS was recently opened. I remember being told repeatedly that it was built "for farang / tourists" because the average Thai could not afford to ride it and the wealthy would continue to drive.
  20. I have a buddy staying at seasonsboutiquehotel.com He got a great price and it is a great location. Ck it out
  21. The closer to Asoke the better I think. I have a great condo in Phra Khanong and everyday I wish I was just a few BTS stops closer to Thong lo/Nana etc. taxis are great in the evening but during the day BTS is the only way to travel. Traffic makes daytime taxi rides torture. If you need a hand I know a great Agent to help you find a place. Perfect English and French (and beautiful too).
  22. Great / in-depth review. I miss Mexican food so much. I will check this out. Do they have Chili Verde??
