The Notorious Nana Hotel

 

if you have anything interesting to share about it then go ahead

I wouldn't live anywhere else. It's got everything I need. 

 

I'm on a health kick at the moment, lots of chicks to checkout on my morning jog. 

All the girls in the area love me, they call me sexy man. I've still got it. 😎

My very first night in Thailand was in Bangkok, I stayed in the JW Marriott, I remember I was on the 16th floor overlooking the Nana hotel and Nana plaza, WTF is going on down there, I didn't know at the time, the time about about 3 am, I'll check that out in the morning, That coffee shop was open, within an hour I had picked up a half Thai/Japanese girl bought 2 watches, I think I'd better get out of here before it cost me anymore, I need to get my bearings I'll be back later, 

That area was dangerous, wall to wall pussy, I did end up renting an apartment down Soi 2, I did some damage in the 18 months I lived there, but happy days,

I've stayed at Nana Hotel twice in the past year.  It surprised me. Value for money.  Good location, good breakfast (including bacon), big pool, the rooms have all be renovated with nice beds and bathrooms, lots of elevators, friendly staff, and the rooms are quiet.

I never stayed there because I was afraid of hearing sex sounds from the next room over. I was also afraid of the mattress.

[proton]

Was there last in the 90's when the skytrain was being built and all through the night, thud thud thud. Screaming girls, people knocking on the door, must have been for the previous guest. About 2 am another knock- room service, all this food outside I had not ordered. Went to the crappy disco once, horrible music. Think it was about 1200 baht back then. Soi 4 is not the place to stay.

I was watching hotel video's last night. The Nana looks pretty run down. 

 

The breakfast looks dire. Coffee mate instead of milk for coffee. I can't think of another breakfast buffet where they don't put out some milk. Not even little Coffee Mate packets, just a big bucket of dubious white powder, Probably not even real Coffee Mate.

 

Back in the day, when such things mattered, I used their travel agency, which was reputed to be one of the best.

It is not aimed at your posh demographic. It is for povos that want sex.

Back in the nineties, the coffee shop used to have pretty acceptable food serving many of the typical Thai dishes made to order. Believe it or not, lunch time on weekdays and the coffee shop was packed with office workers eating in groups or 2-4 from the surrounding office buildings.

The thought of you guzzling down grade Z, bootleg Coffee Mate and then thumping yourself on your back over your "thrift" delights me.

Wow, nearly sixty years ago. The lobby probably looks nearly the same today as it did back then. I'll bet there are possibly a few staff working at the front desk who have been there since at least the eighties.

It looks like a dump. I stay in better places at half the cost. I always have real milk with coffee.

It's actually the pillows you need to worry about, not the mattress. Pillows are where you have your head and mouth.

 

The core pillow is never changed, only the cover. People use the pillows to prop the body during sex, especially if it's a larger foreigner and a small lady. For example, placed under the hips in a frog thrusting position (or a doggy style support for the lady) and other worst case scenario positions as far as body fluids are concerned.

 

The reason I only mentioned the mattress is because I bring my own pillow to a lot of places. Especially, if it looks like a venue of ill repute where "dirty deeds done dirt cheap" -AC/DC

1997, never stayed in the hotel but used to have a few beers in the bar, was always a bit of fun, and were always plenty of ladies looking for company.

Best sex poster in the history of the board? I think so.

There are short-time rooms inside (apparently🫣🤭)

500B were all sold out and only had 600B when I (I mean a guy I know) recently went.

Is that a fact that they offer short time rooms? I was never aware of that. In the eighties and nineties the rates were something like 800 Baht for the whole night. It's now listed at about 1,300 Baht a night on Agoda. But back then the USD exchange rate was only 25 Baht to the dollar. Given the current price and the current exchange rate, the room cost is still about the same 30 years later.

1300 is high for that quality. It looks like a 400 baht room.

They have renovated some things since the nineties it seems. Sadly the same can't be said for the lobby.

Why do you keep babbling on when you admitted at the start of the thread you have never been there? You lose all credibility when you just post to post.

Nothing to do with the new and the old. That Hooters place could be losing money. It's a large space, presumably high rent, and never has many customers. That space used to be partially used as an outdoor Nana Hotel bar, which was often quite busy. The other half of the Hooters space was part of the coffee shop which was thriving throughout much of the day and night. Many of the office workers from Pacific Place, Ploenchit Center and some of the other office buildings in the area ate lunch at the coffee shop. It was bustling on the weekdays.
