A Piece of Pattaya History Quietly Gone

Never mind so much about those bars that are no more but what does matter is the attitude of the gals in the new places that it is all about the money and drinks, if you don't pump them with drinks and games constantly, they desert you like you have the plague.

I have a solution for your serial barstool solitude. Pump the girls with drinks and games.

 

I'm a bit surprised you hadn't worked that out for yourself already.

It moved to Thappraya road. Now named Sun Sabella and seems to adjoin the Sugar Hut. Leaving Pattaya along no.2 road towards Jomtien, go up Thappraya road until you reach the traffic lights at the top of the hill. It is just past the lights on the left behind a high wall. 

Probably all owned by the doctor who formed the International Hospital.

That's life. I used to like Ao Nang. It's terrible now. Also Bangkok has gone downhill. Rather be in Chiang Mai.

 

My friend loves Pattaya. Maybe I should go see what happens there. Might skip April/May though.

That’s what happens when you get older. Places you once enjoyed start to suck.

You seem to know agogos well.

I've been trying to remember the name of a place that I went to once 10 years ago. But my memories are too fuzzy.

It was a place where you had the gogo area downstairs and upstairs you had rooms with baths and things like that. As I remember it, it wasn't very big. It seems like they had some sort of VIP concept... I don't know, man. It's honestly driving me nuts.

They also had a Youtube channel with pretty good vids.

Any ideas ?

it wasn't Kittens was it? they had rooms for rent with jacuzzis and this weird airport limo service that works pick you up at Swampy with two kittens already in the back. 15k I think it was ????

It was devils den, but maybe others too.

Yeah that's it. Never used the limo service but went to their club and they had some of the most beautiful girls I've seen in Thailand

Kittens Club definitely had the services I mentioned. I went there once to check out whether or not it would be worth it for my next trip but when I got there it was lame and overpriced, like most go-gos in Soi Paatayaland at the time. The Kittens didn't float my boat either.

 

This was many, many moons ago though, when Devils Den was just a twinkle in its father's eye ????

Lucky you, when I went there the one time I wasn't that impressed by the Kittens. Perhaps because they kept their bikinis on ????

I think that I'd gotten used to some of the more raunchy stuff that happened in say, Vixens on Soi Diamond or Hot and Cold on Yamato(?) so the "tame" Kittens were a bit of a letdown ????

Tops supermarket , on the corner , Pattaya Glang , now gone . Wonder what will replace it ?

Patts seems like a very dynamic environment , always lots of change and development . Central / Hilton seems successful , although I feel sorry for the independent food outlets - the food court in the basement must be taking away a lot of trade for them 

Tops Supermarket wasn't that old when it closed down, I remember June 2000 I was staying over the road in the Queen Pattaya Hotel. They were in the process of pouring the foundations and the noise was deafening.

If all you care about is raunchy stuff, then nothing more to discuss, really.

Don't recall Kittens having any such service. Devil's Den did, as @JimTripperpointed out.

Kittenclub doesn't exist anymore but I found an old URL and use it on Wayback Machine to access a cached version of their website. Couldn't find any information about a limo service so you might be right about that.

 

120THB for a beer, 145THB for a lady drink.

That was pretty expensive back then...

the marine bar has now gone ,the choke point at the bottom of the stairs was very good for  meeting the gal of your dreams many times over

Even better than downstairs were the sofas that lined the upstairs entryway.  You could sit there in relative quiet and catch the best as they came in.

Pickup service is there way at the bottom. It looks half hearted though and not a real stand out special vehicle, just a suv or sedan or whatever you pick.

 

It does not look oriented to “doing anything in the vehicle on the way from the airport ????????‍♂️” the way devils den is.

So they are still in business ?

It popped into my head suddenly !

The place was called the Kitten Club

 

I just found their channel on Youtube and it was indeed located on ground floor @ Penthouse Hotel.

 

Does that place still exist ?

 

Pretty old vids (2011). More than 10 years already.

I'm wondering where all those dream girls are now...

Re-watching that makes me realize how much the girls have changed over the past decade. Makes me smile for some reason.

 

 

They actually installed a cctv system that you could watch from your hotel room upstairs & so you could just ring room service & order up whatever you fancied.

They also had themed rooms with swings, big jacuzzies & dance poles etc.

Girls with that kind of talent now work off the internet

as for gogos, how about Carousol, or the Sea.  Very friendly in their days.  As for Pattaya in general.  My first trip was 2004.  Full English breakfast at the Pig and Whistle, big owner Graham.  I miss Carre 4 now big c on pattaya klang.  Better choices.  Butcher Arms Pub soi bukhao now gone.  The Domocile Austrian restaurant now split up and moved around.  Brauhaus German place right next to it now closed?  Peppermint with the multiple stages. Man that was nice.  Topps market as others mentioned . I almost bought the little internet area there that had 5 or 6 computers.  Boy that would have been a money pit.  Bowling alley upstairs too was nice now and then.  The little used book shop was worth a browse.  Soi Yume up behind Big C before it got all paved and developed was a nice quiet area.  Nantana gardens hotel was a favorite of a buddy of mine.  Remember getting a cd burned at the photo shops for you new digital camera images? 

 

  And let's not forget when there used to be definite high and then low seasons.  It really was different to experience.

Yeah I recall pretty one from there.... sent her home early as she kept trying to get me into shops and asking me how much money I would give her. Perhaps she still owed on the boob job, very mercenary.

I remember seeing ads for a gogo that advertised rooms upstairs - rooms to stay in, like a guesthouse, but with, as you say, a jacuzzi, nice decor and a 'VIP' vibe...

Can't recall the name though ????

 

Secrets?
