SUKHUMVIT ROAD:
Lots of Hotels, market
stalls, women
& pretty lights.
PICK-UPJOINTS:
Beer Garden
Sukhumvit Soi 7. Great meeting place for
expats with a large circle
egg shaped bar & the place for visitors to Bangkok. Loads of girls
in the afternoon with more coming in at night. Indeed no shortage of
women here. There's a few other bars in this Soi (street) with a new food
& beer bar area opposite, plus the New
Wave Bar. The food's Ok & watch out
for the cockatoo--it squauks. Owned by a Thai now and boosts an upstairs bar as well? if you want to play pool then head
across the road & Thai food served. Lots of girls hang around the street &
there's a
couple of good open air bars in the Soi (street). All around this part of
Sukhumvit there's just loads of girls hanging around and more
surprisingly when the daylight turns to darkness. However it starts at 10am right thru till 2-3 am & a definite start to
a Bangkok siesta of fun. Ask the price before you leave as there have
been a few foreigners drugged & also they may charge 2000 baht but recently the girls moonlight from day jobs while many are the usual ones who frequent the place. As of July 2007 haven't heard any bad vibes from here & its totally safe to drink and have fun. Salads 60-80baht and mains around 120-150baht..
The Thermae
Soi 15 Sukhumvit, bar-girls are everywhere but this is a place thats different. One of he most popular pick up
joint late at night is The Thermae Coffee Shop, a basement bar area in Ruam Chit
Plaza, where girls congregate from early 5pm - late now and thanks to the interim government the late night closing is backm in vogue 2am. .
Go there late as there's plenty of other places to go and see before you
head to this bar-den-jukebox - whatever you call it. It's worth seeing everyone around a big hall
staring at each other and it closes at 2.00am-- ideal if you are really desperate but it's amazing who you see
there and some lovely yound talent as well as olds for the oldies. Many girls are either unemployed, or moonlighting to help their
mothers & grandparents back in Essan but the place fills with girls
who stop by after leaving their other places of work and fun; namely the go go's
and bars where they haven't been able to pick anyone up. But I have met many who have day time jobs. Very safe and never ever seen a fight there. A bunch of
oldies walk around selling you drinks
Nana Hotel & Golden Bar
& Angels disco in Sukhumvit Soi 4,
opposite Nana Plaza with outdoor Golden Bar always full. This has been a popular after hours meeting place
for a long time now and it still gets really packed. No entrance charge
& the disco has loud music & lots of girls. Outside on the street
there's a bar and all day the girls hang about. A lot of foreigners stay
in the Nana Hotel which is OK at 1200 plus baht a night. There's loads of
girls here & it's not that far to your room. The Hotel is an OK
place to stay and an eye opener for couples. It pays to book during the November-March
rush but its an easy taxi ride from Don Muang Airport. The Lobby itself
has bars and restaurant plus a booking Office for ongoing travel to
wherever you want to go. The Front Golden Bar is oopen by 10am and fills up but a nice spot to watch what goes by each day. Watch out for the ripoff touts shoe shine for 50baht & the RESCUE SQUAD LADY AND MAN IN BLUE UNIFORM WHICH IS A SCAM AND THEY ARE THERE EVERY DAY. They are after donations but really are only collecting money for themselves ---another scam.

One of our friends had his shoes shined for 50baht who loiter ariound the Golden bar here outside the Nan Hotel. Avoid them as its a complete rip off and if you have Italian footwear watch them as they ran off one day when we were having a beer complete with an Aussies nice new shoes??? You should have seen the guy trying to run after them after his shoes. Funny thing he got them back and the next week he was drinking there the same girl asked him for a shoe shine again. DO NOT ENCOURAGE THEM AS THEY ARE A NUISANCE.in the land of smiles.
Nana Entertainment
Plaza,
opposite Nana Hotel, is a three-story building with an enclosed courtyard. The entire building and courtyard are full of
bars run by the Crown Group but no relation to the King Group of
Patpong. here its foreign owned. Most are of the go-go (aka "a-go-go") type with female dancers.
Lady boys (transvestites) work in one bar on the 2nd floor
(which in the west is the first floor) & there are no gay bars.
The drinks are dear 125 baht for a beer & around 90-110 for a
coke with a lady drink the same so watch your pocket and check
your bins to make sure they aren't overloaded especially if yourve
had a few to drink. Bar fines are 600 baht on top of the 2000 baht
they may want. Make sure when you give a 1000 baht note
that you tell the waitress what youve paid. Theres a restaurant (Woodstock) and two short-time hotels (Spirit House and Taboo).
Nana starts around 8:00 PM till 2am which may change to even
shorter hours. The Nana Complex is dirty, run down and watch out
for your wallets. The place has changed as at August 2004.
Bamboo Bar Soi 3 Nana ,
opposite Grace Hotel, has a band plays at 11pm??? miles late and the drinks are too expensive. 200 baht for a Bacardi Breeze (53baht in the 7/11); 100 baht for a Diet Coke and 75n baht for a can of coke. Totally outrageous for a pub?? Not recommended by us apart from pool and the band & a few girls. Theres definitely better places to go and see.
Feb
19th 2004 in the Carousel
Bar on the 3rd
floor one of our readers was robbed of his Australian cash when he
took a girl home. Some girls are desperate but not all. We visited on this night and there were only 4
foreigners in the joint . A warning to everyone who takes a girl
back to your Hotel. Let her have a shower first then hide your
wallet and camera etc as you may find the girl missing in the
morning and your cash? 
THE
Good News: the next night he went back again to the bar
and the lady Thai owner made the girl pay most of the money back
--- lucky for him as the Thai owner used to live in Australia
& our friend was an Aus --- so remember you guys who come
here.
Rainbow 2000 is on the first floor of the building directly opposite the Raja
Hotel just 500 metres down Soi 4 on the same side of the road as
Angels. More of a disco than Angels, Rainbow gets very full around the
early hours. When I say that 1am to 2 am is starting to crank up.
Like most Thai joints the music is full on but the service is Ok. Worth
a look if new to town.
Soi Cowboy
& Nana Plaza are the strip joint places where the drinks are a little on the high
side yet the entrance fee is normally free. You can ask the waitresses
if you desire the company of the "fairer sex" & the girls have a
number from which you select. Ok but the night but it can be dear
between 1000- 2000 baht & a bar fine of 500'-600 baht. Don't pay more
than the 1000 baht because the night is young and there's plenty of other
places. When
you go into one joint you will notice they get worse as you head along
to the back one especially in Nana. The small amphitheatre has
more go go bars upstairs but after awhile it all looks the same--the
girls I mean??. So, why pay a pickup fee of 500 baht and cart the girl
around when you'll probably meet them in the Thermae after 3pm !!!!! Soi
Cowboy is located (between Sukhumvit Soi 21 and 23). The best
place is Long Gun II, which has special shows, including a 'dart'-show.
Other places are Black & White and Tilac.
Clinton
Entertainment Plaza (or Clinton Plaza) is
a new complex, first opened '99 between Sukhumvit Soi 13 and 15.
It has a couple of GoGo bars and beerbars (all outside surrounding
the main building). This area has picked up a lot lately and is
almost on par with the other areas, but is still too small. Prices
are similar to Nanaplaza.
Grand
Hyatt Erawan Hotel: Tel
(02) 254-1234 has a joint called Spasso's in the
basement. Meals are OK & girls are forever present.
Don't be fooled though, these are the same girls that you see dancing in
GoGo bars, but there prices have just increased somewhat.
GRACE HOTEL: 12
Nana Neua (Soi 3) Sukhumvit Rd. Tel (02) 254-9021
550
rooms around 1000 baht per night. It is now a Hotel taken over by the
Africans & Russian's but owned by an Arab. You may find a different type of hooker
there if you decide to check it out??? I mean not the Thai ones but the
Grace is san OK Hotel. Try the coffee shop in the grace but watch
out theres a lot of strange Arabs etc but lots of painted girls as
well. Most of the Russian girls seem to freelance
around Soi 11 around Suk ii and Charlies
Between Soi 4
and Soi 2 there is the Ra- Jah Hotel.Annies Sauna & Massage
Parlor is located adjacent to it.18 Sukhumvit Soi 2-4, Bangkok
10110, Tel.: 251-5680; 255-0040
Coming from Soi 2 it is easier to find .khun
A or khun Jackie. They speak
English will make you feel OK. Cost 1000 baht pays for all
& girls are behind a big glass screen. Open noon till midnight
but worth a look.
EDEN
CLUB
Soi 7/1 Sukhumvit Try it if you want a couple of girls at once.
Worth it if you can spare the 3600 baht the French owner charges.
A must if you haven't seen what these girls can do?????? theres a
good English owned bar about 3 doors past the Eden which is really
good, quiet no hassles and great English owner. Try it.

PATPONG
RD Try
the King's Castle 1 and King's Castle 2. Patpong takes up 3 sois.
However, in the last couple of years the nightmarket (selling fake
Rolexes & Amanis,Nikies, etc) has basically taken over
the footpaths,& loads of tourists. It has become the place
where all the tourists go to have a look at the bars and to get
ripped off at the market. Its always crowded and more expensive
than other areas. The touts at most of the bars have also become
very 'aggressive' in the way they try to get you inside. The bars
on the ground floor are OK. There is not a lot of nudity in these
bars, although there are some pretty erotic shows on the second
floor.However ask how much the drinks are first as they will rip
you off. Patpong has lost its charm. Forget about barfining
though, the girls may be very attractive, most girls ask
exorbitant prices (2,000 Baht shorttime or more ). Have small
change not 1000 baht notes when you drink in bars and watch the
waitresses who may say you never gave them the 1000 baht so maybe
if you have high notes tell the waitress or waiter so they know
what they got. Keep away from upstairs bars who will try to rip
you & watch your wallet ---- there are many katoeys (trannies)
who work in pairs who just love mobiles & wallets. The King's
Group seem the better bars to visit.

GAYS
OOps! I nearly forgot about you darlings. If its
boy's your'e after then you'd better stay at the Malaysia
Hotel & check around Patpong. The
Malaysia will put you right as you only need to venture into the
Restaurant to find the boy of your choice. This sounds all to easy in
Bangkok, & indeed it is. Have fun honey and dont worry your wife won't catch you over here in Bangkok as this is a fun place for all, that is unless the PP Party gets in and starts shutting everything sordid up this year 2008 we will be back to 12 oclock closing and no beer and cigis in the 7/11 all day!!!. Oh hell then its off to never land once again.
