I had an SMS overnight from a rather excitable friend who breathlessly told me that the Tarntawan Hotel, the Tarntawan Apartments and Dick's Cafe are all "closing down" on 31 December. I remain sceptical but others may claim a more intimate knowledge
Well, I just checked it on Booking.com and they're taking reservations for January..
Is Dick's ownership related in any way to that of the Tarntawan?
My booking for February has not been withdrawn.
That's a relief. I'm planning a visit after Songkran but haven't booked yet - it's 8 months awayOriginally Posted by Oliver
Dick's and Tarntawan have the same Swiss/ Thai owners. I spoke with one of them last weekend and all seemed well; no mention of closure unless this is a sudden decision.
The hotel is not closing!
The apartment block is closing at the end of the year.

What about the eponymous "Dick's"? What is the source of your information (my hysterical queen friend is remarkably silent)?
I wrote to the Tarntawan Place Hotel about a booking in December and received this reply...
"Moana Hotels & Resorts will stop managing the Tarntawan Place 30 September 2016. The owning company will continue running the place under a new management and new name. Current reservations (with or without deposit) will be honoured.
I have just received an email confirming my bookings for both September and February.
The question on my mind (obviously) is will the hotel be as welcoming to gay guests as it is now?
