Re: Tarntawan Hotel closed 1 June to 15 July
I am very familiar with the rate yielding process, as in the hotel industry myself and accept has been well explained by some others on this trail, however whilst I have stayed at Tarntawan many times in the past, I have become more loyal to the Raya - but now nervous on noise disruption given redevelopment to Soi Twighlight! Any feedback on that welcome?
With regards to getting the best rates unless you know the hotel owner or management and can negotiate direct I would suggest try a site like Top Cash Back https://www.topcashback.co.uk/home (believe they have a US version) simply join which is free then look to book via any of the normal sites but effectively deferred from them so you get a cut of the commission.
As mentioned I am looking at booking soon, if I do it on Agoda via Top cash back I get a 6% cashback - not amazing if one night but for a week long stay a pretty significant discount!

Booking early is the means by which I cure post-Thailand depression. I arrive home jet-lagged and low; the next day I book flights and hotels.

Re: Tarntawan Hotel closed 1 June to 15 July
My flight got delayed so by the time I arrived Tarntawan it was already 2am. All the familiar faces gone but the fixtures and dated decorations remain. They didn’t change the hotel into a Hilton; but to be fair they didn’t charge like one.

Re: Tarntawan Hotel closed 1 June to 15 July
I did stay there last weekend and here are my impression's of my stay
Good points
1. Carpets taken out
2. new mattresses
3. Staff still very friendly
4. Close to everything on Surawong or Silom
Bad points
• Transport ordered thru hotel was not there until 15 minutes after the rep called him, he was not even at the airport
• For 3 night I had no HOT water only lukewarm or even cold, but next morning around 8:30 AM it was OK, it seems to me that the water system is on a timer and shuts off late afternoon and start again heating water in the early morning
• Safe is very low, close to the floor and that is for older people a problem perhaps
• I could get down to the floor ok but getting up was difficult
• Not many overseas TV programs, or if there were I could not find them ,because no list of stations in the room or even a guest information folder
Will I stay again? that is still to be decided
