I know this has been done to death but a report on tridadvisor said that they don't like middle eastern or Indian people, I made a reservation there and I don't want to be turned away b/c I'm indian, although I'm from Canada. My friend looks east indian but I don't, so should I switch the reservation or is this guy just exaggerating. The following is his post on tripadvisor... "I stayed at Nana, Sukhumvit Road, Bangkok for three nights in late July, 2009. I got the reservation through a friend of mine from England who booked two rooms for us. When we both arrived at the hotel, the male receptionist was amazed to see me, a colored person, with a white English man. He told my friend that there was a room available only for my friend. After a bitter argument, he agreed to give us the two rooms that my friend has already reserved. It was an extraordinary and weird situation; none of us could believe that in the 2oth century, there is still prejudice against a particular race and where, in a tourist country like Thailand. The next day, when we met the person in charge, supposedly the manger in the lobby, and my friend complained about the behavior of the male receptionist, the manager said it emphatically in his pidgin English: 'we no interest in people from Middle East or India.'"

Wow, thanks ozfatboy, this looks really nice. For a couple nights the price is not bad, about $100 CAD per night, and much nicer than the hotels you can get here for that price. Thanks for this post, I will seriously considering this hotel when I get there.
