Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
Moving on from the above :-).......can I just ask would people view the BB Inn as somewhere to "go" - I personally would never even think of it as that as the only time I was in it was about five years ago ( for clarity :-) and to me it was basically a short time hotel, where I believe they also rent fairly basic rooms, but I would never have thought of going round to sit in the "lounge" if you could call it that as to me it was just a small front room / lobby full of massage / MB's waiting on their next client to walk in - and nothing wrong with that of course but unless I was intentionally walking in looking for a shag I don't think it would ever have occurred to me just to go in for a drink - so do others do this perhaps and am I missing out on another fun watering hole maybe ?

Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
NIrish, I regard it as "somewhere to go" for maybe one drink or a carafe of wine - in the afternoon - when there is really only Dick's open in that area if you do not want to cross the road to the likes of Golden Cock, Super A etc.
To be honest I've never seen massage or MB's in the coffee shop/lounge - just some of the staff playing pool or on the internet - but as I say I've only been there in the afternoon. I've found the staff can be quite flirty of course!
Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
??? Are we talking about the same place - the BB Inn just behind Soi twilight, I'm guessing so, god when I went there the place was coming down with boys just hanging about in the foyer and everytime a customer came in it was a matter of pick one and away they went to the short time room, I also know one of the boys there and they all sell themselves as massage boys ( now so than MB's - although in DJ later that night they all miraculously revert to MB status lol) - well now I'll have to give it a check out in December and see was I maybe just in on a busy day for the boys !
Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
I'm sure we are talking about the same place

but I have honestly never seen any "activity" in the early-mid afternoon - just the odd "short time room" punters arriving or leaving.
I can't imagine I sat with my beer or wine, chatting to a friend and reading the local gay magazines, completely oblivious to what was going on - I must be losing my touch completely!! Either that or it changes later in the day :dontknow:

Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
SG, Hotmale Bar is open from around lunchtime but Dicks is closed, if I recall correctly.

Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
NIrish if you, or any other member for that matter, find yourself at a loose end in Bangkok and you fancy a little aperitif at the BBB Inn, donтАЩt forget the snake farm just opposite.
I received the following message from the BBB Inn by email this afternoon:
тАЬWhen you stay at BBB Inn, you are not only the centre of attraction but in the middle of it all. Many things to do besides this unique gay night life of
Bangkok.
See snakes loose [sic] their poison and you loose [sic] your fear: Just opposite BBB Inn visit the snake farm. Daily shows at 10:30 h and 14:00 h bring you not
only close but in real touch with poisonous snakes. Great feeling!тАЭ
Yes, what a great feeling indeed, but AYOR! :-)
Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
Just opposite ?? I thought it was facing a busy main road - so not only have I been missing the many ( doubtful) delights of the ambiance of the BBB Inn but also a top notch tourist attraction too, where if it's the one I seen on TV the keeper had a few fingers missing as the snakes didn't always play ball when it came to his snake charming technique - damn, I really will have to get up early out of my bed in Tarntawan on my next trip and make a point of going there now it seems - NOT ! lol
Hmmm after visiting their website and having a peak in their boys gallery I think I'll give it a miss for sure - plus I dont know exactly just how many years ago some of the photos in their gallery were taken but a guy I know is in there and he hasn't looked like that for well over 7 years now or more !! :-)
Re: Gay friendly hotels in BKK
well NIrish, following your example I had a look too - and any hotel that doesn't pay their staff enough that they can afford a shirt while working is not somewhere I'd like to stay. Although, I'd be inclined to stick around for some "light dusting" if one or two were still there.
