    oliver17 got a reaction from carbonara69 in Good sushi place in sukhumvit area   
    In Terminal 21, there is Sushi Express on the floor 4 or 5. Quality is decent and they have the conveyor belts, which is a kick. It attracts some
    Japanese folks, so they are doing something right. There is another place called Fuji in the food court. They serve sushi, but it's more
    like a Japanese fast food place. Fuji is a ladyboy favorite, for what that's worth. Two different girls had me take them there for lunch.
     
    Down in the basement at Terminal 21 is another Japanese place - cannot recall the name of it - they serve sushi, but the prices put me off a
    bit and I didn't dine there. It was also attracting Japanese customers, so they may be worth a try if you can locate them.
     
    I have also seen several Japanese places on Soi 33, but haven't dined in any of them. I am not sure they welcome farangs / gaijin.

    I work in this industry. And technically he is not wrong. By contract if the hotel allows online travel agents (agoda, expedia, booking.com, etc) to sell their rooms, neither party is allowed to reduce the stated price but they are allowed to offer extras such as free wifi, free executive lounge, free upgrade, etc. The way agoda and booking.com attract their customers is by loyalty discounts. If you are a member of either of these online travel agents and use them to book frequently, they will occasionally throw in some sort of discount. This is not breaking the contract at all because the base price of the room is the same, but because your account has been credited some sort of discount, allowing the price to be cheaper than the website.
     
    When I book hotels, I very rarely use online travel agents and only use booking.com for price and location references. What I usually do is to email the hotel or give them a call, let them know my travel details and tell them that I will book directly with them if they give me a discount. This works occasionally because the hotel knows that if I book through an online travel agent that the hotel will have to pay 5% to 15% commision to the online travel agent depending on their agreed contract. By asking the hotel to give me a 10% discount or something of the sort, the hotel still makes more money. Ask them to throw in some more benefits like airport transfer, executive lounge, etc, and this is the reason why I always book with the hotel website.

    The survey enables any airline in the world to be nominated, allowing travellers to make their own choice, underlining the brand as the Passenger’s Choice Awards.



    19.87 million eligible survey entries were counted in the final results, and 105 nationalities participated in the survey from August 2016 to May 2017.

    oliver17 reacted to jeimii in D Hotel Pattaya   
    http://www.dhotelpattaya.com/

    Ok so I know this in the Bangkok forum but I thought it might be useful to post a hotel review of a place in Pattaya for those who are interested.

    For the size of the room, the cleanliness etc the place was pretty cheap I thought. Below are the standard rates but was a bit cheaper online.

     
    There is a 2000THB deposit when you checkin, to be honest I had completely forgotten about it when I checked out and they reminded me which was nice.

    It was very ladyboy friendly, I only ever took one at a time and there was no fee.
     
    The room service (food) was ok and it was close to all the action on Soi Buakhao. There are frankly ladyboys everywhere in this area.

    There is a laundry directly opposite the hotel (it was cheap enough but not as cheap as the one on soi 4, Nana that charges per bag instead of per item).

    You get a couple free bottles of water each day, and if you get up too late for room cleaning they leave fresh towels and more water outside your door.

    There are a couple of convenience stores nearby, as well as a Tesco and TT Exchange place.
    It is actually hard to think of anything negative.

    I didn't use the pool so can't comment on that but looked good.




     
    Shower is electric but was fine:

     
    I stayed in two rooms at the hotel and both had a balcony with a table, chairs and ashtray that could be taken outside(I don't smoke but useful if you have a ladyboy that does).

     
    No mini bar but coffee...


     
    Free Wifi was fine.

     
    Safe was big enough for a laptop:

    Hi all,
     
    I thought that it might be my turn contribute towards the forum.
     
    I arranged a short time with a now favourite of mine, however struggled to find a nice short time room which i like, rather than the dirtly broken down room in some places.
     
    I came across hotel 99, which has been around for a while however to my surprise stil in good shape aspecially the condition and the layout of the room.
     
     
    To get there from the main road, you will see the hotel 99 signs with the arrow, on the roof lining.
    From the rear is accessed through the laneway out the back.
    I found that there was no problem eitherway.
     
    The room was entrance to the room was one the road level behind the curtance.
    Once inside, i found the rooms clean with lots of mirrors and the round bed, with the fun chair being a special touch to the circumstances.
    The shower rooms were good and pleasant to use.
     
    I can keep on talking about it however i will let the photos give you a general idear of the place.
     
    Would i use the place again, hell yes, i would reckonmend it, but that is just my thought.

    I stayed there in January. The elevators do require a room key. BTW, the elevators play only one song, Eric Clapton's "I shot the Sheriff" (One True Saxon will verify this). I don't know about smoking rooms, but I do remember ashtrays were readily available all over the property, so I am guessing the answer is yes.
     
    Galleria 10 is LB friendly, and the staff treated all girls I took there very well. They have a fun pool area on the roof with a pretty good bar / restaurant up there as well.
     
    I stayed on the club level. The rooms up there have a decent view of the City, but really nothing special. I think it's probably a little overpriced. For about the same cost you can stay at their sister property Grand Swiss on Soi 11, which offers more bang for the buck.

    Both times i booked a package on their website, that included: 2nights, breakfast buffet, early check in, and private transfer airport-hotel.
    Sorry for not remember the exact price i paid.
    The room was very quiet, and this is very important for me.
    ID check, and phone call when your guest leave.
    Breakfast buffet was good with a big choice.
    Unfortunately no swimming pool nor gym.

    Qatar Airways is taking on the US government's ban on large electronics with a rather ingenious solution: loaner laptops.



    On Thursday, the Doha, Qatar-based airline announced that business-class passengers aboard its flights to the US would have access to loaner laptops beginning next week.



    "By providing this laptop loan service we can ensure that our passengers on flights to the US can continue to work whilst on-board," Qatar Airways Group's CEO, Akbar Al Baker, said in a statement.

    "This unique ability to offer 'business as usual,' above and beyond the competition, is yet another example of Qatar Airways justification for being the 'World's Best Business Class.'"



    In addition, business-class passengers will have access to complimentary Wi-Fi.

    Qatar Airways has not announced which type of laptops will be available.



    The loaner program will not be available to economy-class passengers. At the same time, Qatar Airways has moved toward a two-cabin class configuration, which means the airline's flights to the US operate without a first-class cabin.



    The laptop program is the latest reaction by one of the nine airlines affected by the US laptop ban. The policy, which took effect Saturday, prohibits passengers flying to the US from some airports in the Middle East and North Africa from carrying-on electronics bigger than a smartphone. The US government has said it introduced the policy in response to fears that terrorists could hide explosives within electronics, though it has not mentioned any imminent plots.



    While all of the affected carriers have made it clear they plan to comply with the ban, they have also come up with a series of ways to work around the US government's new policy.



    On Wednesday, the Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates-based Etihad Airways announced that it would offer first- and business-class passengers free Wi-Fi and loaner iPads on US-bound flights beginning Saturday.

    Earlier this week, Turkish Airlines announced on Twitter that passengers who turned in their laptops and tablets at boarding would receive free Wi-Fi on board. Last week, Emirates implemented a laptop handling program allowing passengers getting on US-bound flights to have access to their laptop until boarding. The Dubai, UAE-based carrier has also hinted that it may offer loaner laptops.



    According to Emirates' president, Tim Clark, the US government's laptop ban has created logistical challenges for the airline and the airports that handle its flights. Thus far, the short-term effects have not been as dire as anticipated, while its long-term effects won't be clear for some time, Clark told Business Insider. Not having access to laptops, however, is still an inconvenience to the carrier's passengers.

    I wasn't sure where to place this thread, so it may get moved to the "Hotel Review" section. Anyhow......
     
    A BM here recently asked about the ladyboy guest policies of a BKK hotel. This gave me the idea to email various hotels around lower Sukhumvit inquiring about their guest policies and whether ladyboys are welcome as overnight guests. The hotels I contacted are all within walking distance of Nana Plaza, CIB, Paradise bars as well as other LB venues such as Nuch Salon. I focused on hotels located on the odd number Soi side of Sukhumvit since most guys are already familiar with the policies of the hotels on the even number Soi side such as Marriott, Phachara, Heaven@4, etc.
     
    They all received an identical email from me:
     
    Hello,
     
    Can you tell me what your guest policy is? Can I have a ladyboy guest stay in my room overnight?
     
    Thank You,
    ******* *****
     
    The hotels I have received replies from so far are listed in the order they responded, along with their Soi location as well as the per-night price for a standard room. I contacted places ranging from budget hotels on up to higher end properties like the Sofitel and the Westin. The replies are all verbatim. If you need clarification, their email addresses are on their websites. As they respond, I will continue to update here. I will also be emailing other hotels for the purpose of determining what their guest / ladyboy policies are as well.

    So, lets try to give my first review
     
    Located at the head Sukhumvit Soi 10, next to Chuwit Park and TheLollipop1.
    A nice and clean hotel, with a small, friendly staff.
     
    Some people found the standard rooms a little small, so I took the Deluxe room.
    Control panel next to your bed for light, airco, time etc. Very handy.
    Rooms are clean, a big bathroom comparing to the bedroom.
    Bath/shower and toilet are diveded by a glass door, so you don't have to wear your boots when you come out of the shower.
     
    Front

     
    Room

     
    Bathroom


     
    Breakfast is very limited (3 choiches), you have to buy that seperate when you're checking in.
     
    Guestfriendly: didn't take anybody up there, but I think so.
     
    Rooms and prices (according to their site)
    Standard - 1500 Bht
    Superior - 1700 Bht
    Deluxe - 1900 Bht
    Suite - 2500 Bht

    I am not flaming you here, but this sentence is confusing. If you aren't ashamed to be seen with a ladyboy, then why do you care what people say or think when you are seen with a ladyboy?
     
    If some stranger disapproves of what you and another consenting adult are doing, that's his problem and not yours.

    You can only do one or the other. Of course, there are splitter adapters available allowing you to listen and charge at the same time. The one I saw was a Belkin model for an obscene $39. I think I will pass on that. I am also not interested in investing in wireless headphones right now.
     
    The adapter that comes with the phone works fine. You cannot discern any difference in headphone sound while using it.

    Mine arrived yesterday. I upgraded from a 6s. The 7 has a matte black finish. I think it looks pretty sharp. The hoo-haw about the home button radically changing seems to be total BS. It still functions pretty much the same way as previous versions with fingerprint activation, but still needs to be pressed to move between apps. I can't tell any difference myself.
     
    The thing you notice immediately is the improved display. it's much brighter with more vividness in the colors. I really like the display upgrade.
     
    I was playing music on it last night and it seemed to be chewing through the battery charge at a faster clip than on my old iPhone. It does come with an adapter for your headphones to be used with the lightning jack. I haven't tried out the earbuds that came with the phone.
     
    I took a few pics with the camera, but not enough of them to form an opinion about its abilities. It too is supposed to be an improvement from previous versions.
     
    I haven't dropped it into water yet to see if it really is waterproof. I will take Apple's word for it.
     
    The setup went smoothly and everything transferred from the old phone with no issues.
     
    If you are moving up from an IPhone 5 or 6, I would recommend getting this phone. If you currently have a 6s, you should probably just save the money for your next ladyboy expedition.
