My thinking is to stay away from the tourists and families, not necessarily the monger/punter. So closer to the sleeze seems to be the logical because I'm thinking most regular people won't choose to stay there. Having said that, I think the plan to stay in a smaller, less known hotel would be best. Money is not an guiding issue. icebergjr., I will check into Heaven@4.

Thanks ohioguy for your comment, though my issue is not with the hotel itself. It is whether that hotel or other nicer class hotels in the Nana area are attracting more regular toursits there so the chances of me bumping into someone from home are greater than if the hotel was mostly a punters hotel like Nana. I just don't want to stay at the Nana after looking at the photos and reading the reviews. I'd rather spend more money on a nicer hotel since I'm able to, but keep a low profile and stay away from all of the tourists. The Phachara Suites maybe my answer.

Thank you all for your comments. After reading some of the other posts, now I'm leaning towards staying at the Phachara Suites based on some of the comments by other punters here. I would tend to think some of the bigger and nicer hotels would indeed have more tourists which I don't want to chance bumping into people back home when I bring my luscious LB back for some LT seedy sex. dav662, thanks for your suggestion of the Aspen Suites. Looks nice but I noticed in the agoda website that the number of reviews by couples (81 when I last looked) is almost has high as solo travelers (86). That's got to tell you something even though it's less than scientific. valsven, I have to agree with you that the chances of me bumping into someone I know is so friggen low, but guess I need some experience under my belt until I feel comfortable. In the meantime, I want to lessen the chance for an unexpected encounter if I can.

This is good to know. I was hoping to stay at the Majestic Grande which I hear is a bit nicer. Any comments on the tourists there?

I pretty much have settled on the Majestic Grande as the hotel I plan to stay at in BKK, but my question is not whether they accept LB or not. My question is how popular are all of these major recommended hotels (Nana, Majestic, Majestic Grande, Dynasty, DG, etc) for regular tourists visiting BKK? I just don't want to run into people back home that are staying there because it's a great place to stay, not because it's near Nana. I got no problem being with a LB out in the open or taking her back to my room, but not about someone that knows me from home and they see me in the lobby or in the elevator. Any suggestions? Any of these hotels strictly for punters? I wouldn't mind staying in a nice hotel while I'm there.
