Grand Thara Hotel, Surat Thani

Grand Thara Hotel, Surat Thani

The Grand Thara Hotel, Surat Thani comes in sight almost every time we visit downtown Surat Thani, that's how centrally located this hotel is. It's at one of the corners of one of the biggest crossings in downtown, opposite the City Pillar and a bridge, it's kind of hard to miss.

It's also located within walking distance from many eateries and shops, very convenient in the evenings.

The hotel is old, and it comes with stunning 172 rooms and you will be treated to a nostalgia trip with all its ups and downs. The rooms are big and still clean, but the furniture is straight out of a 1970-tees movie. I must admit I like these kind of hotels, to a degree. The Grand Thara Hotel, Surat Thani is good enough to not get turned off and they have a surprisingly fair breakfast buffet in the morning.

For a central location in downtown Surat Thani in olden and in an long gone by style, this hotel is good for a transfer to or from the Gulf islands and it comes with a very decent price tag.

Cheap But Hooker Friendly Hotels in Bangkok Recommendations 2015

With the High Season for Bangkok Hotels Around the Corner...

On my last post I recommended 3 names of four star hotels with some serious discounts. For this post I'm going to focus on some names of hotels in the two to three star range that are nice and just right for a vast majority of sex tourists.

Two to three star hotels in Bangkok are great for those who just need a clean room, good location, perhaps a free breakfast and a comfortable bed to screw hookers. A vast majority of such hotels are dotted all over the Sukhumvit area near Nana Entertainment Plaza and Soi Cowboy.

Patpong red light district has many cheapie hotels too but I highly recommend staying in the Sukhumvit area. That's just my preference. Feel free to check out. I will be coming out with recommendations of guest friendly hotels in Patpong soon.

One of the best cheapie hotels I've ever come across is the Paradiso Boutique Suites located on Sukhumvit Soi 10, it's close to Thermae Bar and Coffee for freelance hookers and ladyboys as well as Soi Cowboy. And the Paradiso is just a short stroll to Lollipops BJ bar. Need I say more? Okay, well a standard room at the Paradiso cost around 1300THB and you can find the discounts here.

But if 1500THB is your daily hotel budget you might enjoy iCheck Inn Nana Hotel located on Sukhumvit Soi 7/1 so you're just a short stroll from Nana Plaza with plenty of street hookers to keep your head spinning at night. It's cheap, the location is great and the hotel is just a few years old with many positive reviews.

The cheapest hotel I can recommend on this post that has clean room with a superb location which is next to Soi Cowboy is the Wellness Residence Bangkok with rooms ranging from 1000THB to 1200THB. Though those cheapie rooms have no windows which I know won't bother many.

These three cheap yet hooker friendly hotels have decent reviews and as much as I recommend them I always tell my readers if you can pay more money for a hotel in Bangkok then do it. However, I know many perverts don't want to spend too much cash on a room but more on Thai hookers, well more power to you.

Paradiso, I Check Inn and Wellness Residence are all decent 3 star hotels right in Sukhumvit and I know you'll enjoy your stay in any of them.

Bangkok Hotel High Season Has Begun

But That Doesn't Mean You Can't Find Hotel Deals in Bangkok

I've always said and I'll say it again. Bangkok has hotel deals all year round. Plus the recent incident in central Bangkok has scared away a lot of tourists, many hotels are trying to win back visitors by slashing their hotel rates. So today, you can find better than usual rates.

And it's always good to stay at a hotel near the red light districts. Though on this post I'm going to focus on which 4 to 5 star hotels in Bangkok close to hookers and are guest friendly.

First up is one that I've always recommended and never had anyone complain about it afterwards, it's the 4 star Phachara Suites Sukhumvit and they have a 55% off discount. Last I checked you can get a deluxe room at the Phachara for around 2200THB. That's a bargain!

Another 4 star hotel I can confidently recommend is the Continent Bangkok Hotel which is very close to Soi Cowboy. The Continent has a deluxe room offer for 3600THB.

Finally another 4 star hotel I've been recommending for the longest time is the Majestic Grande Sukhumvit which was renovated in 2013. You can snag a Grande Superior room for around 2500THB.

All 3 hotels have really good reviews and the rates are as good as they get for now. So it's best to reserve your room as soon as you can.

Escort Services in Bangkok or DIY? Which One Is Right For You

It All Depends If You're a Lazy or Adventurous Sex Tourist

First timers arriving into Bangkok will feel their adrenaline running and their hearts beating a mile a minute. They might even have a hard on too. Swear to god; saw it once with a bunch of other people on the airport public taxi queue.

Even a well planned DIY night out on the red light districts from my website www.bangkokredeye.com I know a lot of guys still can't decide if they want to use an escort service or go out on their own to hunt for pussy.

Pros and Cons of Escort Service Girls

When I first started messing around in Bangkok and Pattaya I've always had a lot of vacation days. So for me I was never in a hurry. I had plenty of time to spread out and never in a hurry.

For guys who really don't have a lot of time vacation time or on a short layover maybe an escort service would do. If I didn't have a lot of time I might've gone for an escort service. Just give one a ring and have them set up a lady for me and meet me at my hotel lobby or something.

But there's a price to pay of course for escort girls. Girls from these services, depending on the agency, cost more for their time. However, chances are escorts can speak a decent amount of English. Most agencies know this is important to their clients besides their looks.

Also probably by now you've searched through a bunch of escort service websites and see many hot women. And you've written their names down somewhere while doing doing your research and probably jerked off to a few pics.

But are those real pics of the ladies? Have they been touched up with the ol' photoshop? As I mentioned, I've never used escort services. But I have many pervert friends who have tried. And I asked them these questions and they say in most cases photos are of the actual girls. And the photos are always touched up to make them look more attractive.

So, they will look "different" from the actual pics. A few friends who have used such services before have had a totally different girl show up at their doorsteps. And to turn them away you have to pay a 1000THB note. That kinda sucks. So choose your escort agency wisely.

That said, I do know a lot of guys who've had nice and pleasurable services from escorts. As I mentioned, most of their ladies can speak a fair amount of English. And they even know the city well so they can provide guide services so you can confidently tell your friends and family back home you've visited a couple of temples and musuems instead of BJ bars.

DIY Pussy Hunting

If you have a lot of time I highly recommend going out on your own to the bars, clubs and massage parlors. My website has a bunch of maps to pinpoint the way and Bangkok's red light districts are linked via the MRT subway and BTS Sky Trains.

Though depending on the popularity of certain places you may find that it's difficult to find someone you like. Or maybe you're the picky type. But there are a lot of women working in the sex industry. Chances are you'll find someone you like. It's the laws of probability.

Be sure to have a cell phone on handy. Take down phone numbers if you're busy with another bird. Never be shy but don't be a dick either.

Okay, So I've Been Away For A Long While...

Lots of things have happened and there are some changes to be made on my website www.bangkokredeye.com and www.pattayredeye.com is still on the way.

Meanwhile, for all you newbies here is a video of some of the soapy massage parlors right when you exit the Huay Kwang MRT station.
