Tarntawan Hotel closed 1 June to 15 July

[gerefan2]

Just been browsing the Tarntawan website for a possible booking in June.

The booking page is blocked off from 1 June until 15 July.

I recall Nirish saying something about refurbishments being due. About time too!

As a (non) fan of the Tarntawan I can only hope that they close for 1 year and 14 days to carry out the much needed upgrades
Better still demolish it and build something new... its the closest thing BKK has to Eros in terms if decrepit-ness!

How DARE you Sir ! If we were in a different era I'd be insisting on seeing you at dawn with pistols drawn ! ......well, maybe about 11.30am as I dont like to get up too early and pistols does seem a little extreme, maybe perhaps just two wet towels to be flicked at each other until you withdraw your scurrilous comment about our beloved Temple of Pleasures !

On a positive note lets hope it keeps the our beloved Tarntawan KEEPS same ethos but just with more updated rooms now perhaps.

On a total side note - a friend who was in Bkk last week asked me did I want anything from Bk while he was there and I replied (jokingly) "Oh yes, one of my Chocolate bars from Tawrntawan mini bar please" - to which I received the following in the pic below just a few days later by courier !

It seems the English don't quite get our twisted sense Irish of humour ( ever :-) ) mind you when I thanked him and pointed this out his reply was that perhaps I just didn't get his :-) he may have a point about that ! :-) either way as I'm about 40 bus of chocolate bars up its a win win for me !! :-)

* For clarity no he didn't buy the old stock from Tarntawan before their closed - well, i THINK anyway ! :-))

...maybe perhaps just two wet towels to be flicked at each other ...

Handbags at ten paces?

Mrs May and Mrs Thatcher?

Mrs May and Mrs Thatcher?

You are joking. That would be no contest. One good glare from Thatcher would turn May to stone on the spot.

You are so correct. The bedding is sometime filthy.

Really? Filthy bedding? Mine is changed every day. Decrepit? ageing and in need of refurbishing certainly. But isn't that why its closing for a period?
Another forum is covering this story....with significantly more balance I have to say.

These were sent to me by a friend that can't believe that Oliver and others are defending the Tarntawan and claiming clean bedding
Just look at the filth (blood? Brains?) on the valance sheet... Just because the top sheet is white doesn't mean that the contagions can't make their way upwards

The place should be burned to the ground

Bed bug stains? Ewww. THIS is the hotel to which we've been subjected to endless discussions on? What a dump!
