sirchai Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Hello, I posted this here, as I'm pretty sure that some members know Bangkok and some locations better than I do. here's my "problem." I've got an appointment at my embassy Monday morning. Then I'll have to find a hotel that's not too far TCT ( Kurusapa), cause i want to check which documents they want to see to extend my work permit, visa etc.... The hotel shouldn't be on the other end of Bangkok, or let's say not too far away from aeeh a place to make some sightseeing. Living here for over ten years and not knowing Patpong and similar places makes me wonder if I shouldn't give it a try. Any suggestions will be appreciated Wish you all a great weekend.--- .

Morakot Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Waste of time! Go for a pleasant stroll along the river instead. Or take a boot ride in the afternoon! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David48 Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 So are you asking for a Hotel in the Lower Sukhumvit area, maybe near the junction with Asoke Rd? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlyAnimal Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 I'm going to move this to the Travel in Thailand forum, as it doesn't seem to belong in either the Teaching or Isaan forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post rgs2001uk Posted February 15, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted February 15, 2013 Theres only one worth checking into, The Nana, has everything you need right on the doorstep, or in the car park. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
asanee Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 WHy the heck cant you simply provide FULL info. WHat embassy? Where? And thats supposed to be a teacher (as its kru, nah?)? Kru Sapa is NOT at all near that maligned lower Sukh-its in Pra Nakorn, pretty close by Khao Sarn in fact, in Dusit area. It has its own lodging-mainly for Thai teachers, and there is a decent normal lower-mid-class HTL, again mainly aimed at Thai across the road (Prachathipathai=democracy). The KSR bekpek area is just 10-12 mins walk away and very well situated for the NORMAL non TV-girlie sights BKK has to offer to the general tourist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
enyaw Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 Have you looked at the locker on Khaosan it's not got any facilities and is in fact a locker to store luggage but you can sleep in them too as there is a latch on the inside of the locker door. I don't believe they have a policy which doesn't allow prostitues to also stay over, it's only 80 baht a night. (tip) Bring your own bottle of water as because officially it's a locker to store luggage this is not provided for guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Looking at agoda.com, there's not much coming up in that area. This looks like the best bet if being close to TCT is imperative. Royal Princess Larn Luang Hotel 269 Larn Luang Rd. Watsommanut, Pomprab, Khaosan / Grand Palace, Bangkok, Thailand 10100 £34/night. This one is even closer... like walking distance. Baan Tepa Boutique House 245/1 Soi 9 Sri Ayutthaya Rd. Dusit, Khaosan / Grand Palace, Bangkok, Thailand 10300 £22/night Otherwise, I will be in the Nana parking lot.

Must be "American breakfast" then. Will stay at Royal Princess as they have a pool and I'm near the TCT. Thanks a lot for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please stay inside, there's already too much trash on the roads. Edited February 17, 2013 by sirchai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
