I've recently stayed at the Styles. Here's my personal, subjective review:
The Styles hotel is a relatively new  addition to the accommodation market in the lower Sukhumvit / Nana area. I think it opened in late 2017.
It's a nice three stars hotel. As it's located in the same building as the more upscale Novotel, you don't feel you've booked a cheap hotel. It rather feels you're staying in a standard room in a quality, upper middle class hotel.
Also, despite being located so close to the naughty nightlife scene, the majority of guests are "regular" people visiting the "normal" tourist attractions of Bangkok (Wat Po, Wat Arun... ). It doesn't give you the feeling of being in a "mongerer hotel" such as the Dynasty Grande or perhaps the Nana hotel also. Seems many guests came from places where smaller room sizes are more common than in the US for example, such as Japan and the European countries.
There's a free shuttle service from the hotel to BTS Nana that departs every 30 minutes from the front entrance. Though it's only a 7-8 minutes walk it can be useful when it rains (and it does so occasionally in Bangkok I've heard...) or during midday heat.
You can use the "inbalance" gym of the Novotel on the 7th floor. I didn't venture in so cannot comment any further. On the ground floor there's a lobby bar and the "food exchange", a good looking restaurant.
The standard room that I had booked looked spacious, at least bigger than the official 21 sq. m. it supposedly only had. It didn't feel small. When I'm in Bangkok I basically need a room only for sleeping and going to the bathroom, taking a shower etc. The rest of time I'm out and about. For this purpose the room was absolutely sufficient.
Everything you would need or want is there: bum gun, electronic safe, quiet a/c, queen size bed (upon request), mattress not too hard but also not too soft, hairdryer, liquid soap and shampoo. It also had a small fridge (empty). The big screen telly had a million channels or so (IP TV). You get daily two bottles of water for free. Everything worked except for two sockets (no power). But that was quickly fixed by hotel maintenance.
Once you get used to the characteristic, unusual style and decor of the room, it feels almost like home away from home.
Its main advantages are:
- Hard to beat location just 5 minutes on foot from NEP, the gravitational center of the ladyboy nightlife universe.
- Great value IMO: price range depending on season, demand and day of the week: standard rooms (21 sq. m.) with queen size bed go for I think about 2000 - 2500 Baht, superior rooms (26sq. m.) for about 700 Baht more.
- It is almost new: it shows almost no wear and tear (yet).
- It has a fantastic infinity pool and an exciting rooftop bar that you "must" visit with an awesome view of "downtown" Bangkok
- Wi-Fi worked without a problem in the room as well as in the rest of the hotel.
- I didn't see any tour groups...
- Breakfast was included in the room rate. Breakfast room in the "strEATS" restaurant on sixth floor is for Styles guests only (not for Novotel guests). It is open until 10:30 h. Food is good for a 3 star hotel. There's no egg station. But your stomach will get full, don't worry.
- Girl friendliest as can be (can also be a disadvantage...). If you despise the walk of fun and shame, you can enter the hotel through the entrance of the (often empty) "food exchange" restaurant or through the carpark which is located on floors 2-5. That way you'll avoid walking right through the front desk areas (which however is also no problem at all). I personally prefer ST rooms anyway and take back girls to my hotel room only occasionally and only if I know her well enough and only for LT. So this aspect of the Styles was not so important to me personally...
Disadvantages:
- I didn't notice them proactively checking girls' IDs. If for security reasons you want to register your LB, you have to walk up to the front desk (there's one for the Styles and one for the Novotel) and have her registered. One night I saw a middle aged Japanese man trying to sneak in a girl, telling her to stay close behind him so that no one could see her. That was hilarious as I think no one, I repeat: no one, neither staff nor guests, could have cared less... You get two room key cards so you can give the extra one to your LB girlfriend...
- The hotel appears to be in high demand, so might be sold out by the time you book...
- As I had an early flight out of Bangkok, I went to bed earlier and until 3 o'clock in the morning could hear noise from the street...
- The tears you will shed on the departure day when you have to leave this fine hotel...
You can book on the usual sites such as sexpedia, so sorry, Expedia, Agoda but also on the Accor site
I am a sucker for nice swimming pools. I don't want to visit the tourist sites and shopping malls so much anymore (ya know: been there, done that...). I'd rather now stay by a nice (!) pool and recover from the previous night's debaucheries and get some rest for the next wild night ahead. So that infinity pool was particularly important to me... 
On previous trips I'd stayed at the Dynasty Grande (DG, a **** hotel) and the Citrus Suites Soi 6 (CS6, also a **** rated hotel), both just a minute away from the Styles. Both are fine but the DG's pool is cold and most of the time in the shade. The CS6 is much more modern but also more expensive than the DG as it has recently become more expensive than it used to be (I think) - and I don't like their pool...
I personally clearly now prefer the *** Styles when I want to stay in this area of Nana with it's excellent PVR and would not go back to any one of the other ones mentioned - unless the Styles was full.
Even though it's just a 3 star place it didn't feel like a downgrade from the two 4 star hotels mentioned, except for the room size.
BTW: This was not an attempt at writing an objective review. It was just my personal impression of the hotel that I wanted to convey... It's not even meant to be a recommendation, just a review. Okay?
Thanks :-)

Indeed mate I love place. Stayed there half a dozen times now.

Without knowing what your budget is, if you are looking for big room( suites are 55 sq m) at decent rates, you may want to look at Citrus 11 on Soi 11. The suites can be had late may for about 2100 baht. They have 2 full bathrooms per suite, which comes in handy when you bring 2 girls with you. I know One True Saxon has stayed here as well, and I think he liked it just fine.

Below are some pics from my stay a couple of years ago - Amy from Cascades showing her ass and Stephanie from Casanova showing her tits.
 

 
 

Just get a cheapo room at Heaven @ 4 or some such place that charges 700 - 1000 baht per night. There are many such hotels around lower Sukhumvit. There is also a modestly priced hotel across the alley from CIB on Soi 10, some BMs stay there on occasion.

i can tell you where not to stay ... the Ibis.
 
very small rooms, dirty, moldy, shit Internet, staff won't motivate, horrible food ... did i say very small rooms?

they are uncomfortable with it. maybe they feel they have no control. others love it. who knows what they are thinking a lot of the time. that has been my experience. i do not ask them twice or push them to do it.
 
 
yes that is nadia.
 
 
exactly.
 
 
that is Nadia from Cascade fame.
 

 
here are Nadia and Toei in a video together:
 

 

 
here is nadia in all her glory:
 

 
here is her Thaifriendly link, note that she now lives in Kanchanaburi regardless of what her profile states. i confirmed this a few days ago. she will drive down to meet guys. also keep in mind that she is now 30 and not the same look. but she does have all that experience and carnal knowledge to tap into: https://www.thaifriendly.com/nana2010
 
still well worth a spin and she can really take control if you like that sort of thing.

yes but if you are someone who does not like smoke most rooms reak of it and for ST not so bad, but day to day up2u.
 
also, the LT rooms are upstairs on the second floor and they do not have the chair if that was your motivation. unless you have spent a lot of time incarcerated or working on a fishing boat, the size and condition of the ST chair rooms could make you a bit stir crazy. NO WINDOWS,.
 
there are LT rooms in the very back hall 2nd floor that are huge and have a couch and larger fridge, but i have only been able to get one of those twice in 15 years of going there. they also lack decor and the kind of comfort yo might want for LT stays.
 
another factor is the lack of good wifi, limited menu, and shit TV.
 
i have had a lot of LBs who will not get in the chair, so if you are a TOP or looking to do that often, the chair may not offer you what you seek.
 
but for a ST session in a seedy hotel with all that brings to a session. PB cant be beat.
 
one last thing to noite. the hotel building is U shaped. the wing on the Soi 3 side is run by one company, and the wing on the soi 11 side by another, who also runs the upstairs, the 3rd floor is unoccupied and closed off.
 
also, the soi 3 side DOES NOT HAVE THE CHAIRS.
 
the people who work the soi 3 side are asshats and MFs IMO. they also give you a lot of shit about having more than 1 girl which is just a ploy to jack you up for a tip, yet they wont even give you another towel for that.
 
the soi 11 side they are all OK and polite and they have never given me shit about extra girls. if i want an extra towel for a 3rd or 4th joiner i simply hand the room boy 100 baht while asking for that. never had them say no.
 
there are so many good cheap hotels in BKK that to go to PB for LT IMO would be a waste of your time and money, again, unless it's all about the chair for you.
 
for me it's the convenience, price and the seediness .......... further, i tend to call girls mid-day or late afternoon and have them meet me there before they go to work, and they all know where it is and never get lost.

regardless of your intentions, many hotels follow the laws set down for hotels that require every guest to be registered. the number one reason is safety in case of a fire or some other calamity. this is the primary reason why most hotels ask for the "joiners" ID/TH Card.
 
another reason is if it is a hotel that charges a joiners fee, they want to get it.
 
but most importanlty, any decent hotel will take the ID so that the girl most go and retrieve it. then they will call the room to see if you know she is leaving, and if you are OK with that. this gives you a chance to check your belongings, etc and if there is anything wrong like a missing cell phone, laptop, wallet, passport, empty mini-bar, etc, they will hold her at reception for you.
 
they also want to make sure you are still alive and well. that may sound over the top, but too many crazy episodes over the decades with girls and guys fighting or worse.
 
granted, all of this negates what you are trying to accomplish.
 
needless to say every hotel/guesthouse is different, and they all apply the rules as they choose (or whoever is on duty chooses), and the interactoin with the staff and other guests that may be around can be aggravating if they choose to offer their opinion of your choice of partner.
 
when i worked the hotels in Pattaya back in the day as a department head, there was a security guard that was found to be harrassing the guests with joiners. he was not only being an impolite ass-hat, he was telling them they had to pay a joiners fee, and he would then pocket it. not only was he fired, they changed the security company soon after that.
 
if what you say is so
 
 
you should bite the bullet and make sure the girls register. its for your own safety, and it really can keep the crazy drunk/high thieving ones in check. most of all, it will be a great deterent to theft.

spot on.
 
 
my hotel of choice for several years, i wish all hotels functioned like this one. has a lot to do with all the Filipino staff that work the front of the house. good communication, a real desire to please, and NOBODY will look at you sideways for your mongering habits.
 
i once had three LBs parade through the lobby consecutively over the course of an afternoon and evening. all were stopped at reception, treated respectfully while providing their ID, and when they all left i got a polite call from the front desk asking me if it was ok for them to leave.
 
the mattresses are excellent, the linen soft and smooth, good 3/4 size frig in the rooms, and all the bigger rooms have good sofas and a decent sized work desk, too, if needed. for smokers, every room has a small balcony with a table and chair.
 
maid service is top drawer, the hotel is immaculate, bathrooms are in perfect working order, WiFi kicks ass, the sauna, gym and pool on the roof are well maintained and get very little use so never too busy, motorcycle rental in the shop across the soi is good too.
 
room service is good and comes from the sister hotel August Suites next door.
 
can walk to Pattaya Klang in 3 minutes where there are 24/7 restaurants and services.
 
EVERY GIRL I EVER CALLED KNEW THE HOTEL'S LOCATION. not far from the bus station.
 
if you like to use the pool request the 5th or 6th floor when booking (i use Agoda) and you will not need the lift when coming and going to the pool area.
 
after my third visit they were upgrading me when they could.
 
ps - the roof is great for watching fireworks when they have them at the beach.

I have stayed at April suites over half a dozen times. A nice boutique hotel with a rooftop pool and excellent VFM. It's just of second road and Pattaya Klang. Good location for a stroll to soi 6 and not too far from Soi Buakhao, even shorter if you cut through August suites. Big plus coming back on baht bus you get off right near the hotel
 
Season 5 hotel soi 5 The best roof top pool, so far as I've stayed. New hotel just around the corner from soi 6
 
@Mind just off second road and soi 6 massive pool it's not on the roof but ground level best 1 bed room suites ive stayed.
 
Areca lodge central location great swimming pool in evergreen wing this is used for the volleyball event (watched some from my balcony four years back)
 
Personally trying Adelphi suites this trip.. Just down the road from Sensations and Jollys restaurant

needless to say every hotel/guesthouse is different, and they all apply the rules as they choose (or whoever is on duty chooses), and the interactoin with the staff and other guests that may be around can be aggravating if they choose to offer their opinion of your choice of partner.
 
when i worked the hotels in Pattaya back in the day as a department head, there was a security guard that was found to be harrassing the guests with joiners. he was not only being an impolite ass-hat, he was telling them they had to pay a joiners fee, and he would then pocket it. not only was he fired, they changed the security company soon after that.
 
if what you say is so
 
 
you should bite the bullet and make sure the girls register. its for your own safety, and it really can keep the crazy drunk/high thieving ones in check. most of all, it will be a great deterent to theft.

this has been discussed inumerable times on the sister forum, and probably here too.
 
regardless of your intentions, many hotels follow the laws set down for hotels that require every guest to be registered. the number one reason is safety in case of a fire or some other calamity. this is the primary reason why most hotels ask for the "joiners" ID/TH Card.
 
another reason is if it is a hotel that charges a joiners fee, they want to get it.
 
but most importanlty, any decent hotel will take the ID so that the girl most go and retrieve it. then they will call the room to see if you know she is leaving, and if you are OK with that. this gives you a chance to check your belongings, etc and if there is anything wrong like a missing cell phone, laptop, wallet, passport, empty mini-bar, etc, they will hold her at reception for you.
