  1. I stayed at Galleria10 once, last year. Paid 91€ for 2 nights.

    very nice hotel, wifi work good. my room at 7th floor was very quiet.

    Small gym and small swimming pool on the roof.

    I didnt tried their breakfast, so cant judge.

    Of course is Guest Friendly and no problem with a LB guest.

    Free tuktuk shuttle from hotel to Sukhumvit.

    easy walk for both BTS station Nana and Asok.

    Excellent review. Stayed there myself in January


  2. They often don't staple the arrival/departure card if they're lazy or don't have a stapler, but you can simply unstaple it if they do and it'll be hard to tell they ever did. But they *will* stamp the passport and you can't erase that. Any alterations in passports are a big no-no. If you're really desperate, you can tell your embassy you lost it and they'll give you an emergency one in lieu of a permanent. But cutting pages out (usually the pages are sequenced) is letting yourself in for big trouble.

    I didn't mention anything about staples

     

    I didn't mention any alterations to the passport or cutting pages out.

     

    You're getting your quotes mixed up


  3. They only had one song on the elevator that played whenever I was using it, Eric Clapton's "I shot the Sheriff" I go sick of hearing it. OTS may have heard it also.

    Yeah it got a bit annoying after the sixth time i heard it. Thinking of foing back to Citrus 11 again at the end of the trip.


  4. Yeah thats what it seems like to me, which is no biggie.

     

    Do you have any other info about hotel / area? Assuming it's guest friendly but multiples are free? Any other info about your experience, especially from a mongerer's p.o.v. would be appreciated thanks.

    Not stayed at the soi 8 hotel I only walked there to meet my mate who was staying there. Though I have stayed at the Soi 11 and took two back no problem.

  5. Thanks man appreciated. Quiet and discreet is how i like it and citadines seems that way. Rooms look nice too with full kitchen couch etc. Perfect for a long stay. Distance seems to be the only concern, but i always stay on soi2 (solo & aspen) so I dont mind a trek up to the main road.

    I would average about the same distance from Solo to the Sukhumvit. As citidines 8 to Sukhumvit


  6. Thinking of booking between galleria 10 and citadines soi 8 for 10 day stay? Any suggestions? Is it really that far down soi 8? Any shortcuts to cib or nep?

    It is quite a way down soi 8 but they do have a free tuk tuk. I personally like soi 8 as not overly busy and a lot of great restaurants around. There is a short cut to NEP via soi 6

  7. @Mind Executive Suites Sukhumvit Soi 85I have already posted the pictures above a couple of posts earlier the day I arrived. I had meant to do a report on the hotel there and then but with one thing another (drink & LBS mostly) I could not get it done.Here is a brief outline. After arriving at 9.30 at the airport and I had not made an early room booking. I decided to take the airport link train and change at Phaya Thai BTS to the hotel in On Nut soi 85 It takes about 5 to 8 minutes walk from On Nut BTS to the hotel that is just inside soi 85To my surprise I could check in to my 1 bed room suite straight away. First thing I noticed was how new things were and how clean it was. The rooms are of good design with a dining table for two at the far end of the room from the balcony Sofa (can be made in to a spare bed) and table with a flat screen tv & dvd player. Kitchen as everything you need including coffee, tea sugar and a kettle. Plus a microwave too. Its as a large refrigerator not a mini barThere is a balcony with a sink to wash shorts etc after swimming or you can use the balcony to smoke if that's your thing.Wifi was excellent in both bedroom and lounge room"two flat screen tv's in one in bedroom and one in Lounge room. The same with Air con which was nice as you could leave lounge on low for breakfast in the morning. Rather than have to wait 10 - 15 minutes for it to cool. I was given two key cards and kept one in the key slot to keep the rooms at a low cool temp.Bathroom as shower with a rain shower above.LB friendly as I brought two back on my first night and one back each night after that for the five nights I stayed there.Location. Well it's pretty far from Nana to walk but 15 mins BTS 37 baht and 70 to 80 baht coming back in a taxi ROOM AMENITIESWiFi internet accessPrivate BalconyLED TV with satellite channels & DVD playerMicrowave ovenRefrigeratorPrivate deposit boxIndividual air conditioning adjustmentIn room coffee and tea making facilitiesBathroom with toiletriesPantrySAFETY FEATURESElectronic door locksDoor latchFire escape planIn-room electronic safeSmoke detectorjacuzzi, fitness room and sauna (Open hour:06.00 21.00 hrs.).

    Looks like Google maps is updating as it now shows @Mind rather than a building site. I noticed they have also updated arond On Nut and Phrom Phong as it shows the new EmQuartier as well.

  8. 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


  9. Aspen has gone downhill rapidly. I used to love this hotel for the price and quiteness but the standard and the people who stay there is making me look at other hotels.

    Too many arab families.

    Any suggestions on other hotels with that kind of price range and comfort?

    Next door Hotel Solo
