Bhundhari Spa Resort: part 2

The Bhundhari is a complete five star resort offering every type of recreational activity for the adult. There is a gym, a library, coffee corner, banquet room, restaurant; Wi-Fi is everywhere and 24-hour room service. However, the beach is not very accessible because of the hills and rocks.

The food at Bhundhari is combination of Thai and international cuisine. The hillside restaurant offers breathing view of the ocean and surroundings.
The hotel is simply magnificent but is it the spa that is the highlight. Built in traditional Thai style architecture, it offers a combination of soothing environment, open spaces, and serenity. This is the place to come to relax, enjoy food, and get spoilt. The resort has superb professional massage therapists who can meet all your needs. Rest assured, your feet will be gently massaged, and your back will receive the most relaxing rub in aromatic oils.

The Bhundhari is not for everyone- the atmosphere suits those who are seeking the outdoors, quiet, peace, and a chance to reinvigorate themselves. Certainly this is not a hotel for the young adults seeking excitement.

The bhundhari is somewhat expensive but worth every penny. The lowest price starts around $179 and include breakfast. Some package deals also come with mid morning, lunchtime snacks, afternoon tea, and even cocktails. The deluxe villas cost anywhere from $250-$450. With the current recession, prices of rooms have dropped significantly. Deals are easy to find and you have the power to bargain.

Bhundhari Spa Resort, Thailand

For those who have money and want to have a luxurious holiday, a visit to Koh Samui can be an enjoyable experience. For many years, Koh Samui catered to the ultra rich and wealthy. Today, anyone can go to this island paradise in Southern Thailand. While Koh Samui is well developed and has many luxurious hotels, one of the latest is the Bhundhari Spa Resort. This hotel is designed as a luxurious spa retreat and located close to the beach of Chaweng. The surrounding landscape offers breathtaking beauty and a panoramic view of the resort. Bhundhari relates to the water lily and is a common religious flower among Buddhist monks.

Bhundhari Spa Resort & Villas is located along the northern shores of Chaweng Beach, surrounded by tropical vegetation and a pristine beach. The resort is easily accessed by car and is about 5 kms from Samui airport. The hotel is only about a 10-minute walk from the heart of Chaweng city if one wants to go for shopping, dining, and entertainment. However, be forewarned, coming back it is a steep uphill climb back to the hotel

Even though the hotel is a family-oriented resort, there is little for children to do. Accommodation ranges from family suites to deluxe villas. All rooms are exclusively decorated in modern design with traditional Thai furnishings to add décor.

Each of the 124 rooms has all the basic amenities but some villas also have whirlpools, Jacuzzi, private swimming pool, and even private terraces. You will even be provided with slippers, bathroom robes, and beach bags.

No Hands Restaurant in Bangkok- Erotic but Expensive part 2

The menu is exorbitantly priced. In a country where you can eat for less than $ 3, the menu here starts of at $20 and more. The drinks are 3-4 times the normal price. The girl usually does not eat- her job is to please you. She may even walk with you to the bathroom and help you get refreshed. The restaurant is not known for its Thai cuisine, because the majority of guests do not have food on their mind- only dessert.

The hostesses are exceptionally pretty and very sexily dressed. The seating booth is private and some hanky panky does occur, this is not Thai style. The girls prefer you take them elsewhere and the bill starts to add up.

Following dinner, you get your “dessert”. You have a few options- you can get a partial or a full massage, naked or semi naked- the massage may be soapy, no hands, oil or you can take the girls downstairs or across the hotel for the real “cheesecake”.

By the time you have had you dinner, paid the tip, had a soothing massage and impregnated one more Thai girl, the bill will be close to $150-$200. For this money, you can get 5-6 great looking girls each night at any of the clubs in bangkok.

Bangkok is full of such thrills and sex is often used to lure unsuspecting foreigners. No Hands Restaurant caters to rich Japanese and Oriental tourists who prefer not to go out to more seedy places or red light districts.

In summary, the No Hands Restaurant is okay if you are rich, have no friends, cannot find girls anywhere in Thailand and are a real loser. For the man who wants to have a real good time in Bangkok, stop wasting your money on another one of Bangkok’s rich scams. For the male tourist on a back pack, this is not the place you want to come. There are many other great places to meet girls for a lot less.

No Hands Restaurant in Bangkok- Erotic but Expensive

There is no doubt that Bangkok is an exciting place. There are more thrills in this city than almost anywhere in the world. Bangkok is at the top when it comes to mixing SEX with everything. Sex sells and Thai people know how to market it. Now we have the No Hands Restaurant in Bangkok.

For those of you who do not like to eat with their hands, the No Hands restaurant may be worth a visit. This does not mean that you eat with your feet, but you get a sexy gorgeous girl to feed you. Bangkok is always at the forefront of enterprising technology – mixing sex with business, now it is sex with food. The No Hands Restaurant has been around for many years. The premise of the hotel is very simple- get gullible male customers to come in for dinner and get fed by a sexy thai girl of your choice. The No Hands Restaurant has about 62 private rooms and 150 beautiful hostesses

This trend was adopted from the massage parlor business in Thailand. You walk into this restaurant, you get to see many girls wearing sexy clothing; many girls are exceptionally pretty and charming- you can pick one of them to feed you. For some years, the owner also has a menu of photos from which you could pick the girl(s). You will be escorted to a private booth. Once you pick the girl(s), she comes and sits next to you and sometimes even on your lap. She will feed you and take care of you.

Of course, your hands are free to roam everywhere. The girls know what to expect and it is part of the business deal. While your hands roam on her body, she will feed you and occasionally massage the "delicate parts" of your body While all this sound great, there are some negatives

Shangri La Hotel part 2

The interior of Shangri La is simply magnificent. Each of the rooms has marble walls, crystal chandeliers, large baths and elegant furniture. Each room is adorned in Thai decorations, soft furnishings from silk and provide superb views of the River outside.

All tourists remark on the size of rooms, fresh flowers and a daily basket of fruit. One even has a choice of pillow and linen from anti snore, bolster, foam or flat feather. The hotel has also introduced a scent menu for each room. Guests can choose from a variety of scents including lemon, peppermint ginger, orange, rose, jasmine, grapefruit and cinnamon.

At night, the hotel experiences a transformation. With bright lights, the entire hotel becomes spectacular. Inside the hotel are several restaurants that offer every type of cuisine. The hotel also offers dinner cruises on the Horizon, the Shangri la's luxury two-deck boat. The boat trip takes one along the most famous landmarks in bangkok including the Temple of Dawn, The Grand Palace, Temple of Reclining Buddha, river market and other city monuments.

While watching the scenery, one can indulge in delightful Thai cuisine, with its hot and spicy sauces. For a few extra bucks, one can join the Horizon club and stay in rooms located on floors 23-25. Joining this exclusive club provides privileged access to a breakfast buffet, 24-hour soft drinks, afternoon tea, express check ups, access to meeting rooms and free wireless service. The horizon club is more than a hotel room, it is an extravagant luxury.

Shangri La hotel also has one of the best spas in Thailand- the CHI. This spacious luxury spa built with an architectural design of a Tibetan temple provides sanctuary, tranquility and exemplifies the senses. For the ultimate experience, one should visit the Garden Suite with it infinity bath set in a lotus pond. Each treatment room provides scenic views of the river and the electronic light setting is part of healing cycle.

Shangri La also offers many dining options that range from traditional spicy Thai noodles, seafood to mouth watering Chinese duck. For those who want to stay indoors, Shangri La Bangkok has an excellent range of exercise and spare time conveniences including a free-form outdoor swimming pool and a fully operational fitness center.

Shangri la has received many awards over the years for its services and restaurants.

The Shangri La is slightly more expensive than many such comparable hotels. During peak season the cost per night ranges anywhere from $150-$180. With the recent crises in Thailand, one may be able to get a room for around $130-$150. For those who like to travel in style, the Shangri la can fulfill all expectations. For those on a lower budget, there are other hotels with similar amenities that cost much less- albeit the surroundings and décor won’t be as great.

Shangri La Hotel

The Shangri La hotel in bangkok is a very modern five star hotel that has all the amenities for the tourist. This 25-story hotel is located along the Chao Pharya River. The hotel has been built with modern day western interior decorations and its beauty has been improved by delicate Thai artisanship.
Shangri La hotel was designed by Interdesign, the same group of architects that built the Sofitel Central Plaza, Novotel Siam square and Amari Orchid resort in Pattaya.

The hotel has 799 rooms including 52 suites in two wings, Shangri La and Krungthep. The Krungthep Wing offers 24 fully serviced apartments for long-term stays, with full use of hotel facilities and services.

The hotel is located close to the BTS skytrain Thaksin station allowing the tourist easy access to rest of the city. The exterior of Shangri La hotel is surrounded by lush gardens, a superb pool surrounded by pretty flowers, orchids and well-manicured lawns. The lobby is very inviting and warm. All visitors will feel at home, the moment they enter the lobby.

One advantage of staying at the Shangri La is its great central location. The hotel offers a complimentary boat shuttle to River City that is a great place to buy gifts and souvenirs. The hotel also offers a free mini bus service to Silom center that is probably the place to be in Bangkok. Silom is always bustling with activity both during the day and during night. For those who want to explore bangkok, one can use a tuk-tuk or even a taxi. The hotel can also arrange a limousine or a helicopter ride if you are willing to pay extra.

Le Bua at State Tower Hotel – supreme elegance in bangkok Part 2

One of the chief reason people come to stay at the Le Bua is not because of the service or large rooms, but its restaurants. The hotel has several restaurants, a cafeteria, and an excellent lounge. For those who want to relax and enjoy high noon tea, there is the Le Bua Lounge that serves tasty French pastries and desserts. The Breeze Restaurant on 53/54th floor is for the seafood lover. Also on the menu are some of the best delicacies from all over Asia.

However, it is the Mezzaluna on 65th floor and Sirocco on the 63rd floor that will make you fall in love with this hotel. The magnificent view of downtown bangkok, the clean, fresh air, bright lights, and the romantic ambience makes this award winning place perhaps the best eatery in all of Asia. Eating at the Mezzaluna is an experience of a lifetime.

The Le Bua offers various recreational facilities including fitness center, Jacuzzi, sauna, steam rooms, and swimming pool. The soothing massages will help you relax and rejuvenate your body for the next day. Like most five star hotels the Le Bua has all facilities that a tourist needs like a Currency exchange Counter, Safe Deposit Box, Car Parking, Travel Desk, twenty four hour Front desk Service.

The Le Bua at State Tower Hotel in bangkok is one of the few hotels that looks mesmerizing but is very affordable. The current state of the economy favors the tourist more than ever. While prices do vary, a night’s stay at the Le Bua starts at around $100. There are plenty of discounts for longer stay. Some of the packages also include a sumptuous breakfast with the best Thai Fruit you will ever taste.

Le Bua at State Tower Hotel – supreme elegance in bangkok

The Le Bua at State Tower Hotel is a fascinating hotel located in downtown Bangkok. This five star hotel has a great reputation for it superb services, towering view of bangkok and has perhaps one of the nicest restaurant in all of Asia. The Le Bua State Tower projects over the Bangkok city skyline with its towering height and glinting golden crown. A spectacular accolade to distinction, this all-suite Bangkok luxury hotel presents exciting views from every room, many options for luxurious dining, and sumptuous accessories such as Bvlgari room services.

The Le Bua at State Tower Hotel Bangkok is an impressive sixty five-storey building facing the Chai Phraya River. The Le Bua is located within walking distance of most things that a tourist wants to see in Bangkok. Those who want to explore more of bangkok can take the Taksin Sky train Station that is within walking distance from the hotel. The adventurous tourist can take a taxi or the tuk-tuk, which are very cheap, but the ride is often scary. The La Bua caters to both the casual tourist and the businessperson.

Even though the Le Bua appears gigantic in size, it has only 198 rooms, but each one is exclusive. People who come to Le Bua appreciate the good things in life. The available suites range from 1-3 bedroom, each individually and tastefully decorated, plush with contemporary architecture with all furniture designed by the best Thai artisanship.

The unique Bvlgari bathrooms are in a class of their own. Each room has all the amenities of a five star hotel. The service is outstanding and you will never have to sit around in the lounge waiting for someone to answer your questions. For the business traveler, the Le Bua offers every type of electronic gadgetry including high-speed internet, teleconferencing, voice mail, fax, etc. There is the Pundarika and the Angarika Ballroom both of which can house hundreds of guests. However, it is not the size, which is impressive, but the circumferential view of Bangkok Skyline, which will make you wish your flight home, is delayed.

Peninsula hotel in Bangkok

For anyone who has never been to Bangkok and is looking for a great place to stay which is very affordable. I cannot recommend anything better than Peninsula hotel. This majestic hotel located in Bangkok, is A plus. The peninsula is a 39 story majestic hotel and offers some of the best scenery of Bangkok skyline. Located on the Chao Praya river, there is a ferry service which can take you across to downtown Bangkok. This Ferry ride is soothing, and provides a unique view of Bangkok- and it beats the car traffic.

Services provided for guests include superb fitness room, large swimming pool., spa, business office, helicopter service, baby sitting and even a private ferry to take you across the river. Every morning you can a great buffet breakfast and even an English newspaper. Each room has the fanciest electronic gadgets. All rooms have the usual amenities of TV, DVD players but it is the size of the rooms that are impressive. The rooms all smell soft, romantic and are very inviting. The computer technology in each room allows the guests independent control of temperature, lighting, telephones, and audio visual systems – all done with a simple touch of the button.

Many rooms even have electronic curtains. However, the highlight of Peninsula hotel are the marble bathrooms. Every type of personal care product is made available for free. The bathroom also incorporates a television which has steam free screens, and a very convenient remote control panel that allows you to watch your favorite program as you soak. The sound system is so advanced that it filters the sound of water and allows you to listen to the TV. Everything is immaculate. If you fall sick, the hotel has 24 hour health care staff on call. The hotel caters to guests 24 hours a day.

After a hard day's shopping, the hotel even offers afternoon tea with some of the best desserts in Asia. And then there is the traditional Thai massage which will take your breath away.

However, two things of note. The food in the restaurant is very pricey but delicious. For those who can afford it, eating Thai sea food in the hotel verandah is highly recommended.

The second thing that people have to know is that the hotel is located on the opposite side of downtown- meaning that you either have to cross the river or take a taxi to the other side. For those who prefer a taxi- forget it. This 10 minute trip in Bangkok can take anywhere from 30 minutes to 2 hours. There is a constant gridlock on the streets everyday and at all times. The hotel does offer a free boat shuttle. For those who want to walk, sure it is possible. However, what is worse than the heavy traffic in Bangkok is Thailand’s wet season (Nov- Jan). When it pours, it floods everything up to your knees.

Asides from this minor fault, Peninsula is worth every cent. This is a no hassles hotel, here there are never any line ups or waiting periods. The staff cater to everything. It is the rare guest who will complain about the Peninsula hotel. These guests would be better served with a Prozac pill than traveling.

The cost of staying at the peninsula is variable at the moment because of the political turmoil (but still very safe for westerners). On average expect to pay between $90- $150 for a night. However, the hotel does offer great discounts and at the moment one can stay at the peninsula for $ 85. With the current global recession, there are plenty of discounts for longer stays.

Pat Pong Bangkok's Red Light District Part 3

In Pat Pong, price of drinks and foods, depend on how great the girl looks. If the girl is gorgeous, expect top prices. The girls definitely know what they are worth and expect the price. The problem in Pat Pong is that they are way too many farangs (foreigners) and the girls have the pick. So if you are on a tight budget, keep away from Pat Pong, unless you just want to ogle. No price is fixed in Pat Pong; everything is a haggle, even the price of sex.

On average, most girls are very decent, young, have great figures, and are submissive. The average price for a girl in Pat Pong is quite variable. The great looking girls go for 2,000-3,000 baht (about $50-$75). The average looking girls go for $ 20-$50. Even though people brag about getting Thai girls for $ 5 and $10, these are butt ugly girls who are over the hill (but do provide the satisfaction).

While in a bar, picking up girls is easy if your pocket is full of money. If you have no money or very little, you will have to go home alone and pleasure yourself. The girls stick to guys who are loaded. And if you do get lucky to take a beautiful girl for the night, make sure you take care of your wallet and clothes (I lost mine and had a hard time explaining to the police man what happened to my clothes-going home naked can ruin a trip to Thailand-luckily there are clothing stalls everywhere in Pat Pong).

Pat Pong has a lot of go go bars and transsexual clubs. Most girls are willing to go home with you if you pay well. For those who are not into sex, Pat Pong is loaded with decent places to eat, drink, and play pool. Mind you, everything is expensive in this neighbor hood compared to the rest of Bangkok

For the new tourist, Pat Pong is not recommended. It is loud, tacky, over priced, has many pickpockets and everyone is only interested in ripping the tourist. Finally remember life is great in Thailand, lots of nice girls and food is great- but the country also has a high rate of HIV. So use caution, wear a rubber, and try not to go upstairs in any Pat Pong bar.

Pat Pong Bangkok's Red Light District Part 2

Pat pong is best visited at night. The place is always teeming with tourists looking to buy fake Rado watches and Polo T shirts, but everyone tries to catch a glimpse at the semi-nude girls. The place is tempting, erotic and also has built a bad reputation. In general, there is no violent crime in all of Thailand. However, once in a while if you get drunk and hassle a girl in pat pong you will know what it feels like to be kicked in the groin from a person trained in Thai boxing- definitely not recommended.

In Pat Pong while violent crime is rare, there are many pickpockets, small time crooks, hustlers and even the girls try to rip you off. For the novice, never go to Pat Pong alone. Mind you, the place is not dangerous at all-in fact just outside Pat Pong is a police station. However, Thai people in Pat Pong have a special way of ripping people off. Everything in Pat Pong is costly. You buy a drink; it will cost you several times more than what it costs in America. The tabs are always padded, and it is not uncommon for tourist bills to be loaded with unnecessary drinks (you may not notice this because a semi nude girl is doing things to you that will keep your mind off the bill).

There are live sex shows but it is only girls making out. There is no real banging between couples- at least not at the clubs. For those who are into this type of fetish, perhaps Pat Pong may be exciting but the lust is not there- it all appears mechanical.

Almost all bars in Pat Pong have an upstairs room where the girls are more liberal, have less clothes, there is a scent of sex, an erotic scent is everywhere, the music is loud, and the girls will do tricks with their mouth and body on you, which you can only dream off. However, upstairs is where one should never go in Pat Pong. It is only asking for trouble. Besides ripping you off, Upstairs bars and clubs usually have mean bouncers and rip off artists. The girls are nice but remember they do this for money- and they want all your money. They all expect you to buy a drink for them, which is overpriced. Even touching them costs money.

By the way no cameras are allowed inside any clubs and if you are caught with one inside taking pictures, be prepared to get another kick in the groin by a thai bouncer.

Pat Pong Bangkok's Red Light District

There is no secret about it- the majority of men go to Thailand for the good life (the sex I mean). Nevertheless, Thailand also has many other great places and some of the best beaches in the world. In any case, Thailand also has the most famous Red light district in the world- Pat pong.

Located in downtown Bangkok between Silom and Surawongse roads is this famous place with all the glitz, razzmatazz, pole dancing, thong wearing girls, go go dancers, exotic looking lady boys and many strip bars. This is the place where it all started in Thailand many years ago- Yes, Pat Pong the skin and sin capital where only good (and sometimes bad) times roll.

The majority of tourists come here to not only ogle at the semi nude girls but also do some hardcore shopping. The entire place is jammed every night with street hawkers, peddlers, and shop merchants. Everything is on sell here besides Sex. Moreover, almost everything is fake- from Gucci, Pierre Cardin, Yves ST Laurent, Liz Claiborne, Tommy Hilfiger, etc, etc.

Once Pat Pong was raunchy, naughty, sexy and erotic- while this is still true today it has calmed down a little. Most of its thunder has been stolen by Nana Plaza-which is more inviting, seductive, sexy and has just as many beautiful girls.
