    The pictures are from a village called Baan Nong Khit ( spelling ) and it's just outside Khon kaen.

  3. Hi Guys !

     

    This is an old report, but maybe the rooms looks the same today.

     

    The last days of my trip in april 2008, I stayed 2 nights at the Baiyoke Sky Hotel in Bangkok. I booked via internet and paid 6400 baht ( tariff rate 13000 baht ) for a Presidential Suite Room ( one bedroom ) located in the Space zone ( 70 - 74 floor ). The room I got was on the 71st floor and had a great view of the city. B)

     

    The service in all parts of the hotel, except for the reception, was good. I think the people working in the reception never heard the word service before. I was suposed to get a free dinner for 2 at the Crystal Grill restaurant, but had to ask for the voucher 4 times before I got it. When I was checking out, I had to wait 40 minutes for them to check my minibar that I hadn't touched. All in all, an OK hotel, but a bit expensive. :mellow:

     

    The location is great if you like shopping. It's in the middle of Pratunam area and the Pratunam market. It's a bit far from Silom and Sukhumwit. :angry:

     

    Here's the website:

    Here's some pictures from the room I stayed in:

    Call the Thai Embassy in your country and they will tell you what kind of visa you need or if the visa is free. :D

     

    Cheers :o

  5. Hi Guys !

     

    I have also done like that.

     

    I wanted to stay at Pullman ( former Sofitel ) in Khon Kaen.

     

    I walked in and asked for the price and got a higher price than the internet rate. When i asked if I could have the internet rate, the lady in the reception said: it's only for internet booking. I asked her if i could use their computer in the business center and she said yes. I walked 5 meters, booked the room, printed the receipt and walked back to the reception and she accepted it and I got my room much cheeper.

     

    Cheers :lol:
