Are you traying out all new hotels in the area? Nice!

I personally love new hotels. But nowadays, unfortunately, it is often the case that while everything looks very beautiful and modern, there are still major downsides. Such as virtually no sound insulation between the rooms or between the room and the hallway. Or certain designs that are not practical. Like the fact that when you take a shower, the entire toilet gets wet.

I am curious to read your experiences in the new hotels alongside the photos.

A closet...maybe even an elevator 🧐

I'll wait for the room size queen review....

maybe  like me with a twink top in Jomtien 😉

Has anyone tried the Magic Touch massage shop - that is displayed in Vinapu's above photo?

@jimmie50 posted a first-hand account of a visit in May this year. 

Personally, I have never done business in that shop, though in 2019, I thought I had visited. https://shamelessmacktwo.travel.blog/2020/02/12/the-full-gay-works-in-a-girlie-shop/

My next two walk-bys were also written up: 
(2024): https://shamelessmacktwo.travel.blog/2024/09/21/magically-in-business/   and
(2026): https://shamelessmacktwo.travel.blog/2026/04/19/magically-still-in-business/

My posts are meant for visits; I rarely post about mere walk-bys. The fact that I wrote this shop up on two walk-bys says a lot!

If anyone wants to be an intrepid reporter, I'd suggest a visit after sundown. Things may be different from what's been reported by @jimmie50 and me in 2024 and 2026, which were afternoon occasions.

Yikes - thanks for sharing those reviews.

Before I posted my above post - I had searched for this place in the Massage_Insider Telegram forum but there were no returns - so that should have been the first clue that this place is not in demand.

OMG...absolutely my worst experience ever...anywhere.  Based upon my experience I would avoid, but some adventuresome soul might enjoy the challenge.

Keep in mind this is Arni Hexa hotel thread, not Magic Hand massage one  so whatever opinion you express please be specific if  you are relating to hotel or masage.

Apologies @vinapu...thanks for that reminder.  I was just responding to post by someone else and didn't stop to think what the actual topic was.  Yes, I have never been to Arni Hexa hotel.  My comment was specifically directed to Magic Hand massage shop.

I just left that hotel this morning and was somewhat shocked by strong statement about it until 5 secs later I realized you  were referring to massage shop

It was bit wait for that hotel to open as it looked almost ready when I passed by in January. 

There are 2 buildings, reception is in one tucked in the alley, café is in brown building right at soi Wat Haulampong. Entry by card to both, so very discreet, at least if you are in brown building. No elevators, safety deposit boxes on reception only. Close to bars as it's behind Rose hotel and even closer to Sam Yan MRT station. 

Not for room size queens as room was fairly small and shower fitting just one at the time. Kettle, coffee and tea provided but no sugar. Very quiet area so good choice for budget conscious who try avoid street noise. Similar standard to Red Planet, now Earth Planet down the Surawong minus elevators  safe box in the room but much closer to the bars.

Shower not big enough for two people? Definitely out for me!
