Carmine6 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 There seem to be lots of free days promotions. Not so much discounts on the actual rate. So stay 6 days, get the 7th for free. Or the Compass Group (President Park, Grand President, President Park) has a 200 baht credit/day for use on services at the hotel. Rate is the same as before at 1999 baht for the base room. some of these are available direct through the hotel's website, but not the resellers. Others are.

Just one example: The hotel I liked staying at in Jomtien tripled prices over the past two years. Now they have very few customers.........but the owners refuse to drop the price (saving face? stupid?). Of course, we all know what happens when you do this sort of thing: You go out of business.

Exactly! ...just another example, the "Sky Bayioke Hotel" in Bangkok(tallest building in Thailand), you book a room at a x price, then you go there and they just try to take TWICE that amount of money with all possible (false)excuses, when you ask them to actually take responsibility for their actions by putting what they say in writing they obviously refuse, bloody scammers! yes Thailand keep going on that way as you are surely doing yourself a big favour!

trogers Posted April 16, 2009 Share Posted April 16, 2009 Try searching Vacation Rentals in the classified ads of ThaiVisa - a week's stay cost you the same as 3 days in a hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
