A Quickie Post...

Heaven@4 Hotel on Sukhumvit soi 4 has a stay 4 nights and pay for 3 discount again. The hotel is in a great location and I've written a post here with a map showing where all the hot spots are nearby as well as the guest friendly confirmation.

So the deal is book 4 nights, pay for 3 and each night cost around 1125THB, just a little over $32 bucks. As you can imagine it's a really popular hotel and even though it's only 3 years old it's seeing some signs of wear and tear already. But because of the value and location I think it's still worth staying there. It's a limited deal so if you're coming to Bangkok soon you should book ASAP.

This Week's Best Hotel Deals in Bangkok Oct. 29th, 2012

As usual there are many hotel deals even though the high season is rolling in. But discounts can be found and money saved for hotels in Bangkok. I've sorted out some of what I think are fine hotels near Nana and Soi Cowboy right in the Sukhumvit district.

So choosing any of the hotels below means that go go bars and beer bars are in walking distance. And these hotels are close to the Nana BTS Sky Train station so you can check out the oil massage parlors that are only a few stops away near the Phrom Phong BTS station.

Recommended Hotels with Discounts


President Park Hotel

If you're planning on staying in Bangkok's Sukhumvit district for at least a week and want to stay at a 4 star quality hotel then you should check out President Park Hotel.

Currently there's a stay 7 nights get 30% off discount. With taxes and a free breakfast you're looking to pay about 2000THB a night for a standard room. 

Not only is that a real bargain but you'll also have plenty of space. A standard room at the President Park is 36 square meters.

There's no rush to make a reservation, from what I see so far this discount ends December 2013.

Only drawback is that the hotel is located quite away down Sukhumvit soi 24, about a 10 to 15 minute walk. However, you're still going to be near many oil massage parlors that provide happy endings near the Phrom Phong BTS Sky Train station.

Centre Point Sukhumvit 10

I wrote a recently post about where to stay to have threesomes in Bangkok. And I pointed out that serviced apartments are the way to go when you want to bring back a few ladies to your room at the same time.

Well CP on Sukhumvit soi 10 is a serviced apartment. So you can always arrange a couple of ladies you've met working the streets to come to your room. Or you can just bring them along with you hand in hand and the CP won't even blink an eye or demand a joiner.

The special discount rate for now is book 2 nights and you'll get 47% off for a deluxe room. With tax and free breakfast it comes out to 2200THB per night. And a deluxe room at the CP Sukhumvit 10 is big too at 38 square meters. So there's plenty of space to mess around during a threesome.

The special discount ends on December 31, 2012 so I wouldn't wait too long to reserve a room.

Citichic Boutique Suites

I really like this hotel even though I don't mention it as much as I should. 

So the Citichic is in sort of a particular quiet location down the far end of Sukhumvit soi 13. However you can easily skip over to soi 11 at night for partying in Q Bar and other various club/bar venues.

Besides the fact that it's a very well maintained hotel with professional and courteous staff the location has a very laid back vibe which I truly enjoy.

Though to be honest the price is a bit high considering the location but that's not really a big negative. As of writing there is a 50% discount for a deluxe room so the cost is around 2100THB per night with taxes only. Can you get a hotel on Sukhumvit with similar quality and lower price? Sure, but as I said the location is very laid back, peaceful and not crowded at all. So it's still a good bargain.

Aspen Suites

Located on a quiet end of Sukhumvit soi 2, Aspen Suites is a nice little gem that's not far away from Nana Plaza, just a 10 minute walk.

Though you can always make use of the free tuk tuk ride provided by the hotel to get to the heart of the action.

It's a newish hotel at only 4 years old so the condition of the property is still fresh. And a superior room cost about 1900THB with taxes after a 50% discount. And the rooms are about 30 square meters so it's big enough for a comfortable stay.

Find rates and read more reviews for Aspen Suites.

I particularly chose all of the above hotels because they have many positive reviews from guests. And I realize that the rates are still a little high for some even though the discounts are deep.

So for guys who would rather spend more money on booze and bar girls then I suggest staying at the highly recommend Sam's Lodge Hotel. You can book a standard room that's 20 square meters for around 1000THB plus taxes. The hotel is located near the corner of Sukhumvit Soi 19 right by the Terminal 21 shopping center which means Soi Cowboy, the BTS and MRT stations are within walking distance.

Where to Stay in Bangkok for Threesomes


Having a threesome is a once in a lifetime experience I know most guys think about. And in Bangkok such desires can easily be fulfilled.  And even though there are many hotels in Bangkok that are guest friendly and allow you to take one girl to your room at a time; the question is how can a guy take two girls to a room and still avoid the dreaded joiner charge?

Now there are a handful of nightlife establishments that provide threesome services. Eden Club is one of Bangkok's most well known spot where you choose 2 girls, in which one does anal. Most oil massage shops that provide happy endings also provide some type of 2 girl action on their menu for customers.

And of course you can always hire a couple of Nana hookers on Soi 4. Which is where most guys go when they want to organize a threesomes. Getting a couple of girls from a go go bar and paying those bar fines is just too costly. Although most Thai working girls are not bi-sexual they sure will oblige when the amount of money offered is just right.

Now if you've read my post quite often you would've learned that most hotels with a guest friendly policy typically allow one girl to your room at one time. Otherwise you'll have to pay a joiner fee for the second girl.

Alas, all hope is not lost for those who fantasize about getting it one with 2 ladies. What you should do is stay at a serviced apartment in Bangkok.

Most places to stay in Bangkok operating as serviced apartments are usually in the 3 star range and can go up to 5 star like the Grande Centre Point Sukhumvit by Terminal 21 at the Asoke junction. There are a lot of Centre Point serviced apartments spread around Bangkok, but the one I mentioned is in a great location and built right into a new mall.  Also the BTS and MRT train station entrances are very close. Plus Soi Cowboy is a short 5 minute walk across Asoke road.

There is another Centre Point Sukhumvit Hotel on soi 10 to check out too. It's slightly cheaper because it's an older property but still well worth the money and an excellent value.

Another popular serviced apartment group in Bangkok are the Citadine properties. And you can find several of their properties right between Nana and Soi Cowboy red light districts on Soi 8 and Soi 11. Both Citadines properties are also in excellent locations, though the one on Soi 11 is closer to a lot of popular bars and clubs.

Another serviced apartment worthy of mentioning is the Omni Tower Serviced Residence on Sukhumvit Soi 4. Their rates are reasonable with big rooms and the location is really good for picking up street hookers up and down Soi 4. Russian hookers have also taken up residence at the Omni too.

Though Centre Point, Omni Tower and Citadine properties are labeled as apartments, they are also hotels so you can stay just one night or as long as you'd like with no lease to sign. Most serviced apartments are at least 28 square meters in size and typically include small kitchenette with a sink and microwave.

If you're thinking about inviting more than 2 girls, ladyboys or whatever back to your serviced apartment room I recommend doing so discreetly. You can bring two girls up to the room first and then head back down and get the rest. All serviced apartment rooms have an electronic safe located in the closet. So you can and should lock up your valuables.

From my experience Centre Point Hotels do not require any ladies that you wish to bring to your room leave their ID cards with security or reception. Citadines and Omni Tower for some reason only ask for ID cards from the ladies sometimes. So please make sure somehow that anyone you invite back to your room is 18 and over.

And of course whatever damages to the room your guests may have inadvertently caused is your responsibility. So keep everything in check to avoid any problems.

Pattaya's Beach Road Hookers


Pattaya’s red light district has a big freelance scene too which is mainly focused up and down Beach Road, from Soi Diana to Walking Street. It’s a favorite place for punters looking for the company of Thai girls and escape paying bar fines and spending on overpriced lady drinks.

You can find the ladies sitting or standing around in groups under palm trees. And the usual Johns are not too far away often mingling with the ladies. They are all on the sidewalk by the beach which is about 3km long. Though most of the girls hang around on from Pattaya Soi 7 and up to the entrance of Walking Street.

Prices for freelancers on Pattaya’s Beach road can go as low as 500THB. Can it go lower? Sure. But like anything else you’ll get what you pay for. And a 500THB hooker in Pattaya means you’ll be shacking up with lady with the least desirable looks. So you can imagine what a 200THB hooker will probably get you a souvenir.

So are there good looking girls working the freelance scene in Pattaya? Well, I do believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. From the times that I have spent time on Beach Road I’ve only seen a handful of girls that I’d actually want to take back to my hotel room.

I’ll probably catch a lot of flak for saying that because I know there are a lot of guys who think Pattaya’s street hookers are comparable to the birds in Bangkok or even better. But so far in my experience that’s really not the case. Sorry, just being truthful. A lot of the girls on Beach road are worn around the edges. And many are even on the last leg of their long career as a prostitute.


Good news is, well at least for guys who love visiting Pattaya’s red light districts is that Beach road hookers are quite flexible in regards to how much they charge. In Bangkok, say for example hookers in Nana you may be hard pressed to find a decent looking lady spend short time with you for 1000THB.

In Pattaya you have a much better chance of scoring a short time date for 1000THB with a half decent looking lady. Thanks to the fact that the cost of living for Thais in Pattaya is lower than it is in Bangkok, the ladies are more willing to work on how much they charge.

Long time rates are just as flexible it seems. I was taking a stroll with a good buddy of mine and he spotted a decent looking girl. She was in her late 20’s, with jet black hair, big eyes and a nice body. He struck up a conversation with her which eventually led to him asking if she’d agreed to a 3000THB long time price. This was at around 9pm mind you which was early in the night. And he told her she could leave at 9am. Surprisingly she agreed with no hesitation.

Pattaya pretty much sums it up as a budget sex tourists dream locale. And with so many affordable girl friendly hotels near Beach road I can understand the attraction.

Now I’m always the suspicious type. In my mind I was wondering what’s wrong with her. She had all her teeth, toes and fingers. And my friend’s a seasoned veteran of Thai whores. So he knows what he’s doing and what to do if there are any red flags. And no matter what you always know you’re taking some type of risk when you’re in the company of street hookers.


She spoke a fair amount of English which meant she’s been a working girl from some time and for the few hours I’ve hung out with my friend and his date she showed no signs of why she would sell herself so short.
You can imagine how anxious I was to find out how everything went the following morning. At 9am on the dot I called him expecting him to tell me he had a nightmarish experience of epic proportions.

It turned out he had a good time. The only real quirk he pointed out was she padded her bra to make her tits bigger. Most Thai working girls do that anyways so that’s not a big deal. And she definitely had a baby or two judging from the stretch marks on her stomach. But overall, he says he’s had better.

So even from previous times when I’ve been out around Pattaya I usually ask the hookers on Beach road how much they would charge from long time. And if I average out the rates it would come out to about 4000THB. There are girls who ask for 5000THB and when I do hear that I try to contain myself from laughing. Judging from their looks and age I believe they are a few shrimps short of a tom yum gung.

To date I’ve never picked up a hooker on Beach road. But I can see why so many guys on the prowl in Pattaya do. Because there are a lot of ladies in that particular area throughout the night. And no matter how much they have in their pocket

You can find hookers working Beach road from sundown to sunup. Not surprisingly even African prostitutes are beginning to make themselves comfortable among their Thai sisters. Russian ladies are not quite yet on Beach road since they're probably making loads of money in the bars. But I too wouldn't be surprised to see ladies of the former Soviet bloc making an entrance on Pattaya's freelance scene in the near future.

Soi LK Metro in Pattaya: My Favorite Area to Stay and Play

Entrance of Soi LK Metro on Soi Buakow

I get asked a lot where I choose to stay while I'm visiting Pattaya's red light districts. While there's no 'real' disadvantage by anywhere near the vicinity of Walking Street or up and down Beach Road, there is one area partuicular are I prefer. And that's Soi LK Metro.

Soi LK Metro is right in the middle of everything and less than a 10 minute walk to Beach road. And I usually walk through Mike's Shopping Center just to soak up the air conditioning. LK Metro is an L shaped Soi with entrances at Soi Diana and Soi Buakow.

So why do I like staying there? For starters Champagnes a go go, one of my favorite Pattaya bars is right there on the corner of Soi Diana and LK Metro. Besides having mostly fine looking ladies from afternoon to night their prices for drinks are quite reasonable and the atmosphere is friendly. And on Wednesdays and Fridays 9pm to 1am there's free pizza!

There is a new go go bar that opened just a few weeks too called Showgirls. Be sure to check out their cuties working the doors as well as the dancers inside. I made my first visit there just a few days ago and really enjoyed myself. There's 2 floors but it seems like the 2nd floor is much livelier with a stage where the girls pole dance. I met a couple of cute and friendly ladies and had a great time. I'll be sure to visit there soon.


The Devil's Den Pattaya should not be missed if you have a porn star wish to fulfill. On the menu are 2 ladies for 3600THB with 90 minutes of playtime. And you can finish as many times as your body is able too. There rooms are pretty cool too with a big bed, plenty of mirrors, porn on television and even a sex swing. Devil's Den girls perform lesbian acts and anal too if that's your thing. And for 3600THB it's really a bargain if you think about it.

And that's not where the fun ends. MASH and Office go go bars are worth a visit too. And around the corner on Soi Buakow, Sugar Sugar and Club Oasis are also worth a drop by.

Bar fine cost in the go go bars of Soi LK Metro are 600THB. Short time prices range from 1500THB to 2500THB depending on the girls looks for course. Long time rates can start from 3000THB. And drink prices are reasonable and the happy hours are a bargain.

Areca Lodge entrance. In the background is Keerati Hotel

Where to stay in Soi LK Metro

There are two hotels that I highly recommend and I've already made reviews. The first is Keerati Homestay and the other is Areca Lodge Pattaya. I like both of those hotels not only because of the location but because of the convenience and cleanliness. And yes, both are confirmed as guest friendly so no worries about taking a lady back to a room and getting hit with a joiner charge.

The Keerati cost about 1000THB ($30USD) per night though just remember to pick a room in the back to avoid the noise. The Areca cost about 1500THB ($50USD). And both hotels have access to swimming pools and a fitness center. Which to choose? If you're on a budget and don't mind blaring music from the bars until 2am Keerati Homestay is the pick.

And those songthaew baht buses run along Second road so you can easily get to other parts of the area for 10THB. Don't even ask the driver how much, just hand the 10THB or else you'll hear a higher fare price.

So those are just two bar girl friendly hotels I recommend in Pattaya that I personally stay in. Just like my favorite hotels in Bangkok's Nana red light district the Keerati and Areca are the first hotels I tell my friends to stay at.

Sure, we all know Walking Street is the mecca of go go bars with a lot of hot Thai bar girls. But when the sun comes down it's crowded with all kinds of tourists. And I do mean all kinds. You'll see families and grannies walking toe to toe along the punters. Is Walking Street becoming the Patpong of Bangkok?

Soi LK Metro entrance from Soi Diana

Don't get me wrong. I love the entertainment and especially the company of women found in the nightlife establishments in Walking Street. And the quality of the ladies there and fun factor is light years compared to Patpong.

But if you want to be in a place in Pattaya where you can find beautiful and friendly bar girls with affordable hotels then Soi LK Metro is where you should stay.

Beck's Resort, Koh Phangan

This resort is located in Nai Wok Beach, within walking distance to Thong Sala and the main ferry pier and it's directly at the beach, albeit a very shallow beach and no pool. The rooms are ok, mainly fan but also a/c bungalows are available.
It's a very friendly place and the beach bar tends to attract all guests in the evening to hang out and have fun together.
The 30 rooms here are tranquil but still close enough to Thong Sala to be convenient and everything is within hand reach.

Nice and basic but good budget value.

Pattaya Girl Friendly Hotels with Discounts

Currently I've been receiving more request for the names and reviews of hotels in Pattaya that are guest friendly. As well as requests for more information on Pattaya's go go bars, beer bars and soapy massages. I'll certainly do all that soon in due time. Thanks for the patience and understanding.

So for now, below you will find 6 places to stay in Pattaya that are either close to Beach Road for picking up hookers and Walking Street for go go bars. And better yet, all of the hotels have some kind of discount rates going on.

My Recommended Pattaya Hotels


Ibis Pattaya Hotel
The Ibis Pattaya is not exactly close to Walking Street for go go bars but remember, that's not the only place where you can find bar girls. There are lots of go go bars within central Pattaya as well. Besides, you can get to Walking Street quickly with a ride on the Baht bus for just 10THB.

Normally I recommend hotels that are in walking distance to the action that guys desire. However, I know that the Ibis is a very popular hotel group which is why I'm recommending it here.

And besides, there's a good discount going on. Book 3 nights and you get 33% off. So the price comes out to about 1170THB ($39USD) per night with taxes. Though keep in mind the special rates applies only for rooms with twin beds and this deal is valid until November 11, 2012.

Check current rates and read more guests reviews for Ibis Pattaya.

Eastiny Hotel
Moving on to central Pattaya's part of Beach Road, the Eastiny Residence Hotel is having a stay 7 nights and pay for 6. To sweeten the deal, breakfast is included on all days too.

With taxes the rate for each night comes out to around 1175THB ($39USD). This deal is valid until the end of this month.

It's not a new hotel mind you, but it's still very well maintained and clean. And they have a lot of well deserved positive reviews. Besides, it's not expensive and it's located not too far away from the beach.

Check current rates and read more guests reviews for Eastiny Residence.

Citin Loft
Citin Loft Pattaya is not exactly right by the beach, which is only a 10 minute walk. And you might want to catch the Baht bus to Walking Street.

Or you can just head over to Soi Buakow or around Soi Diana for go go bars and beer bar action. Another words, you're not far from the company of a Thai working girl.

It's still in a decent location in central Pattaya. And their rooms are clean and modern since the hotel was built in 2009. And right now until the end of this month you can book their superior rooms for about 1300THB ($43USD) per night with taxes added. That's a savings of about 25%.

Check current rates and read more guests reviews for Citin Loft.

LK The Empress
The LK The Empress is a brand new hotel directly across from Beach Road. So if you want a hotel where you easily head across the beach with a wide choice of prostitutes to invite back to your hotel the LK Empress is it. It's rated as a 4 star hotel and I've been hearing a lot of good reviews.

And the location of the hotel is in easy walking distance to surrounding go go bars and beer bars. Plus there are a lot of shopping centers nearby to waste the day away. Mike's shopping center is around the corner from the hotel and a good place to pick up souvenirs and knick knacks.

The LK hotel names are all over Pattaya and what I particularly like about staying at any of their properties are that their rooms are well designed and spacious. And they usually include a terrace or balcony space. Right now there's a 30% discount for a modern 32 square meter room which comes out to 2400THB ($80USD) per night with taxes. This discount is valid until December 22, 2012.

Check current rates and read more guests reviews for LK The Empress.

There are two more girl friendly Pattaya hotels with discounts I recommend and I've blogged about them previously. The first is Golden Ville Boutique Hotel and the other is Sunshine Hotel and Residence. Both of them are in central Pattaya and relatively close to the Beach Road.

So that's pretty much it for this week. All of the places I recommend above are well like by frequent Pattaya visitors so I hope you enjoy! And check back in a little while. I'll be writing up a bunch of posts on Pattaya's red light district.

Hotel Mermaid Bangkok Review

Hotel Mermaid on Sukhumvit road soi 29

If you're looking for a new hotel in Bangkok in quiet area but still close to Soi Cowboy then consider staying as a guest at Hotel Mermaid on Sukhumvit road soi 29.

The Mermaid was completed in 2011 and just a 100 meters from Sukhumvit. Walking to Soi Cowboy would take about 10 minutes and if you walk the opposite direction on Sukhumvit towards the Emporium Mall and Phrom Phong BTS station and you hit up on a lot of popular body to body oil massage shops in 10 minutes too.

It's a nice medium sized hotel in an residential area so yeah it looks like a family friendly place to stay. But the Mermaid Hotel has a policy of allowing guests to invite prostitutes for overnight stays. So for solo travelers who enjoy the company of Thai girls don't have to worry about paying joiner fees.

However, since the hotel is on Sukhumvit soi 29 some ladies working in bars and on the streets might be hesitant to go with customers on short time. It has to do with getting back to where you picked them up. Remember, a vast majority of Thai street hookers are in the Nana red light district. So if you plan on heading down there to short time a prostitute and get back quickly to the hotel, your option is to take the taxi or motor-bike.

And even though Soi Cowboy is the closest go go bar area to the Mermaid Hotel, bar girls might be reluctant to take a 10 minute walk to a hotel.. 

So if they do agree with going with you on short time you might expect them to ask for some taxi money. Obviously you shouldn't have the same issue if you're paying for them to be with you for the night.

Studio Room

The price for a room at the Mermaid is quite reasonable. A studio room cost about 1700THB per night with taxes. It's about 30 square meters so it's spacious for 2 guests. And since the hotel is still new everything from the floor to the linens are in good condition. Free Wi-Fi internet access in the rooms too.

Though the hotel is rated with 4 stars I can't really see it. There's a nice pool, no gym though but the hotel staff is friendly and professional. In my book, it's a 3 star hotel.

As of writing, there's a really good discount for the Mermaid Hotel. Book 3 nights and you pay for 2. So the price breaks down to about 1450THB ($49USD) per night including taxes and breakfast. And that's a sweet deal. I'm not sure how long this deal will last so you should check rates at Agoda.com.

Check current rates and read more guests reviews for Hotel Mermaid Bangkok.

For your reference here is the hotel's guest friendly confirmation:
Dear Mr. Jim Hunt,
