Thailand (Thread 7)

[jk_1234]

Hi mga sisses! went to BKK last 19-23 July saya! First night we stayed at Nasa Vegas Hotel ganda ng pictures pero eeeewww ang dumi so lipat kami Siam Kempinski.

Advice ko lang, better stay hotel in pratunam basta sa city unlike what we did nung una. You'll save a lot pa sa taxi kasi everything is walking distance na.

Next time magpapapalit din ako ng madaming baht and pay all my puchases through cash para hindi lugi sa conversion ng bangko. 

We'll definely go back to BKK mura lahat, sulit lahat ang entrance fee

@callme:k nag early check-in kami sa hotel namin,pero dahil nililinis pa at kailangan nadin namin magpunta sa venue ng presscon (nung artist na pinuntahan namin) pinaiwan muna namin sa storage room yung luggage namin. pwede naman.^^

share ko lang din yung trip ko last june pa.hehe. *namimiss ko na ang pad thai!! 5D4N, for the first 2 nights sa Dusit Thani kami nagstay, then the last 2 nights sa take a nap hostel in silom area. 1,500 baht/night triple sharing. malinis siya, mababait at madaling kausap yung mga staff. malapit sa BTS at MRT. yung friend ko na pabalik balik ng bangkok eh sa nantra silom or inn saladaeng nagsstay. ok din ang feedback nila.

[callme:K]

^thanks for replying ms.primadonna.. we'll definitely deposit our baggage na lang muna, kailangan gumala na agad pagdating! 

Question lang sa mga nag-purchase ng Siam Niramit tickets from hotels2thailand.. Okay na ba ang Normal Seat, or kailangan Gold seat ang ticket? sayang din yung difference, hehe

haay.. di pa ko nakaka-alis pa-Bangkok naiisip ko na bumalik, haha!

[icegayle]

Sis Any reviews sa MIAMI Hotel? Its an old hotel and very affordable, located in the city (sukhomvit).

Hello Sisses!

Boyfriend and I will be arriving on Saturday night via Cebu Pac on September 8 and only have the entire Sunday to tour around because we have to leave for Siem Reap on Monday morning. I only have these things in mind so I would be asking if this would be doable. Note: Sanay naman kami sa mala Amazing Race since we pretty much did it before with our other trips. 

* Go to Ayutthaya (probably in the morning. we're just going to the 3 must see temples)
*Grand Palace and the W@t Phra Kaew
*Konting shopping for keychains,shirts and magnets..(saan ba ang mura?)
*have a yummy authentic thai dinner (if you can recommend a good place, pa include na ren)

We're eyeing to stay at the Lemonseed Rooms para malapit sa BTS

Thanks in advance!
