My hotel choices in Bangkok

[toni.gega]

I will staying in the Sheraton Sukhumvit, the Okura Prestige, the Sukhotai and the Capella Bangkok.

If there are guys who stayed there previously, please let me know how it was...

I think more information is in order. Will you be going after the bars open back up? Will you be ordering in via Thai Friendly? For instance, while the Capella is upscale, it's near the river and nowhere near where the clubs and bars are on Sukhumvit. Sukhotai isn't near the main drag either, but maybe that doesn't mean as much if you're going when clubs and bars are closed.

Ordering through Thai Friendly, one remark though, I find it astonishing how few profiles are there on this site if you know Bangkok is a city of 8 million people.

I like to stay at the Grand President on Soi 11 whenever I am in Bangkok.  I did find another hotel that I like that is also on soi 11 quite a bit closer to Suk; it's called "Eleven Avenue Suites."  It's next to the Taco Bell.  'a little cheaper than the Grand President.

I like Grand president too, nice big rooms, the suites are spacious and not too expensive with full kitchen and big living room.  There are two main towers, tower One has the lobby and front desk, so I avoid that as the lobby is always busy and I don't like bringing girls right past the front desk if I can avoid it.  Tower 2 across the driveway is nicer and much more discreet for bringing a girl or two back.  Never had anyone ask any questions. Across Soi 11 is another tower with smaller rooms, it's fine too, no problem bringing anyone back.  

And the location on Soi 11 is right in the middle of everything.

I always stayed near Nana Plaza. Easy and quick to bring girls back to my hotel.

Majestic Suites on Sukhumvit Road, just around the corner of Soi 4 is my pick. However, the rooms are very basic. 

More upscale is Majestic Grande in Soi 2. Now it's a Hilton Hotel I think. Rooms are nice and way more modern than Majestic Suites.

How I miss being there and fool around in Nana Plaza 😞

The Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit is one of my favourite hotels in Bangkok. I stay there every other trip. Decent gym, club house-style facility and lagoon-like pool area (though the water isn't heated). However, the Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit is expensive. It's a luxury brand (in Asia) after all.

You don't have to register girls, but the hotel makes you sign a waiver each time you have a girl go to your room. The waiver is you acknowledging that you take responsibility for the guest. A staff will escort the girl to you room and you have to sign the waiver at the door.

Hotel's for Nana Action:

There is Alt Hotel Nana, it's on Soi 2 at the end of Soi 4 Nana. They have shuttle service (back and forth) directly to Nana Plaza. They have two Buildings A and B. In B there are also some freelancers (incall). The rooms are standard. Building B has also monthly rental options and isn't that expensive.

Teja Hotel. It's near Alt Hotel Nana, a little bit hidden on the opposite street. Rooms again standard, but also has shuttle service (back and forth). Walk to Nana maybe 5 minutes.

 

Hotel's for freelancer Action:

Amora NeoLux Hotel in Sukhumvit 31. Rooms a little bit above standard. FL don't need to go to the reception and can enter the elevator without problems. It's also near Sukhumvit Soi 22 (Massage and Bars).

Solo Express in Sukhumvit 81. This is perfect for all the freelancers near OnNut. Rooms are a bit under standard and could be modernized. So for holiday and relax maybe not the best action, but just for meetings it's perfect, but it's also super cheap. FL don't need to go to the reception. This is true for both buildings.

Surely that’s going to be a massive turn off for everyone? Especially when there’s loads of 4.5/5 star hotels that let you just walk in with girls without any hassle

Never had this happen to me in my 14 stays at the hotel.

Or do you mean your in the room and the girl comes to your room escorted by the staff member?

I really like The Grand President; it's really close to a lot of action; not too far from Nana or Soi Cowboy if that's your thing.

A Sheraton staff will escort the girl to your room. He will have a waiver in hand, give it to you to read, agree and sign to. This was February 2020 the last time I was there. It was a total surprise to me as the Sheraton Grande had never done this before. I asked girl I got about this and she told me that this wasn't unusual at some of the international chain hotels. I was also there in September 2019 and this didn't happen.

It does turn me off from staying here again but who knows. Things could be completely different whenever tourism opens up.
