Advice needed!
 

Hi All,

First timer going to Bangkok in December (Nye) for 3d2n alone and needing some advice!

Option 1:
Stay somewhere in Asok (any recommendation for hotels that's girl friendly in case I get lucky? )
I chose this area as i want to b close to train station. Also it's in the middle of BJ bars in phrom pong, soi cowboy and about 25-30 mins away to huay kwang for soapy massages.

Option 2:
Havent really researched this but saw a thread of another bro recommending to go to pattaya for a day trip. Or should I just go pattaya?

Thanks!

Yeah, fair enough. I thought 3 months would be enough time to ask for advice as I am looking to book hotels now.

Thanks for your input.

Book this hotel "Sukhumvit Suites" which is just beside the BTS n MRT stations and also a 2mins walk to Soi Cowboy n Terminal 21.
Nice modern boutique hotel n girl friendly.

Re: Advice needed!
 

I normally book park plaza or maitra at soi 18. Around 5 mins walk to asoke btr. Also can walk to soi cowboy.

This S Sukhumvit Suites I was referring to is about S$85 per night according to Agoda website. Decent size modern trendy room. Location is the best compared to the rest.

Thanks mate! Yeah I was looking at airbnb now and they're almost the same price as hotels now.

I'm reading up that it's somewhere in between 5000thb to 8000thb for LT if i wanna bring girls back. That's a bit out of my budget maybe i'll just stick to RNT and the BJ bars. It's also my first time traveling without my SO so i'm quite excited but yet nervous. Wish me luck!

Thanks man. I was looking at this too. This is high up on my list to book. Thanks!

I am taking that you are looking at such hotel. S$85 is a good rate if it includes the tax. Troublesome, you take lift to level 2 to ask her to surrender IC to recep. Make this mandatory for safety. Then take lift again to your room. Check out time, they will ask you to fill a survey form. Alamak sometime needs to rush to airport, where got time?

A cheaper option is Taipan slightly further down. Girl must surrender IC so it is 'safer'. Another very much cheaper but slightly lower class (decent standard) is Manhattan in soi 15. One disadvantage is too overcrowded by a certain nationality. Used to stay many times previously a year ago but no longer now.

One disadvantage of airbnb is most likely no safe. For me a safe is a must, don't know about you.

Enjoy yourself.

:D

I feel you are one who can have a decent discourse.

Different people has different comfort level hence some goes for 1 to 2 stars hotel while other goes for 3, 4 or 5 stars hotel.

You mention with CCTV etc no way people want to steal your things. Why do you still use pad lock? Nothing wrong, just following 不怕一万 只怕万一. I believe it is because a pad lock is your minimum acceptable risk level, just CCTV is not. Like comfort, different people has different risk aversion level. Mine is a safe. We do not know Beldoeri risk level right?

I am very concern about having a safe is primary because of passport. If my luggage padlock is broken and just money is taken, not an issue. I treat it as a scam. If my passport is gone, it is troublesome and I may miss my return flight. Isn't it a fact that that placing inside a safe (of course bolted to the wardrobe) is so much safer than lugguage with pad lock. Even in burglary situation, I sincerely doubt he will try to break into a safe vs breaking a pad lock.

In general advice given is usually lock your valuable in a safe, check in a girl etc. Where do you ask the girl to leave her ID if in condo? In Beldoeri context, he is new, so girl he bring back to accomodation will be unknown. If he brings in freelancer, street walker, from wechat etc. then depositing of her ID is to an extent 'mandatory' isn't it? Even from joint such as bar, AGG etc, it is surely preferred. For me I will surely ask her to deposit her ID. There is another reason too (hehe) for doing that.

For travel insurance anyone travelling more than 10 times per annum for a 4D/3N trip will be better off buying a one year plan. Just purchase once per annum, no need to buy for every trip. Based on where you come from, insurance is secondary because mine does not cover robbery, burglary, theft or loss of cash. Does any insurance cover that?

Condo has homely feel compared to hotel and I book it as many time as I book hotel. However I book condo only when I am going with a lady partner for holiday, already known to you hence no need to deposit her ID and the risk level can be lowered of course.

Sawadee Kap brother,
Your 3D2N trip to Bkk is too short.
Bkk is usually very hot and traffic was very slow .But December will have more rainy days.
Do not go to Pattaya.Just enjoy your time in BKK.
Attached is the website for massage parlours near Phrom Phong BTS Station for your reference.

Thanks bro! I was looking at this website earlier. Will definitely check out those places!
