Toasties are delicious and like 30 baht I ate at the Capella hotel when I was in Bangkok last month ,6000 baht including wine I would prefer buying some toasties and buying a bottle of wine 🍷 and sitting in Lumpini park

But I'm not sure if I could bring a boy back without raising an eyebrow... Yes, I stayed there. I took a boy back, no issues. Oh wait... I'm thinking of a different place @21 Saladaeng
November 26, 20241 yr 6 hours ago, vinapu said: almost twice ? I 'd say three times bigger I usually stay in the room with bathtub in the Quarter which is bigger than the other rooms. It's listed on agoda as 27m² whereas the grand deluxe room at the Raya is listed as 50m², so almost twice is correct 🤭

But that was during the last Christmas Holiday period. Yeah, the rooms are lovely and large. Alot of space, and as you say, like an apartment

Drinking is not permitted in the park, according to the BiB who pounced on me on one occasion for possession of a beer can. Fortunately it was empty, I was just looking for a bin to dispose of it.

Anyone been there? I’ve been during the summer. It was great. Reasonable price, lovely rooms and breakfast. The pool on the ground floor was much nicer than the one on the roof. Really friendly staff as well.

I can see that the rooftop pool is small, but I have never seen anyone in it!

Anybody ever stayed in a hotel where this actually was a problem? Tarntawan was no problem bringing a boy back but they had to have id. One thing I liked about the Raya was not having to think about the id as the lift from the rear car park avoids the staffed reception.

The same convenience is afforded by Red Planet, ground floor lift goes directly to your floor bypassing reception on 2nd floor ( 1st for Europeans)
June 24, 20251 yr Popular Post On Sunday night I tried new Nishitetsu Croom hotel by soi 4. Ultra modern but minimalistic design. Window only in the bathroom. Very clever safety deposit box fitting drawer. I quite liked it but truth needs to be told , for half price I have room at Raya twice as big and everything is working as well so I guess I leave Nishitetsu to more affluent guests than poor , hand to mouth pensioners

They are all fairly good with positive comments about the staff. Not surprisingly they appear to cater to a Japanese clientele. I put “gay” into the search function but so far no results.
