Thanks to everyone for the great reports "on the ground" of the situation in Bangkok. It made for some riveting reading.

What's the latest on the scene in soi Twilight and the rest? Has anyone been to the cinema in Saphan Kwai recently? I've had some very memorable times there that I hope to repeat.

Does anyone know what the Dusit Thani's joiner policy is? They've got some killer rates at the moment and am considering upgrading...

Dusit Thani charges a joiner fee for anyone staying past 10 p.m. I think it's about USD 35.

I'm going to BKK soon and sent some detailed e-mails to Dusit Thani with questions, because it appeared they had a first-day-full-rate and 50% for following days. I don't like how they respond: they give general, somewhat non-responsive, replies. I think (but still am not sure) that the 50% discount only applies to one day if you pay the quoted rate for the first day (and only for a two-day package). I noticed they add on tax and another fee. And breakfast is only included in some of the quoted room deals. And I was wondering about the joiner fee (thanks for answering that). I decided to just simplify everything and book with Jimmy at Pinnacle Hotel--great rates, breakfast is included for two, and no joiner fee. The only thing I didn't like 6 months ago was Pinnacle was using all-polyester bedding (including sheets and pillow covers) and it was very sweaty. This time, I'm bringing my own cotton bedding (I made sure not to have white--I don't want the maids to mistake it for the hotel's). You can write to Jimmy who books for Pinnacle: jimmyfirst@hotmail.com

I decided against Dusit Thani also. But if anyone's interested I found a really good rate on AsiaRooms.com. It appears to be 65% off the rack rate. AsiaRooms also has a good rate for the Tarntawan--1500 per night.

And thanks stillthrobbing for the joiner info at Dusit Thani. That's a bit exhorbatant!

Well, it's the Dusit Thani. The room rates are cut, but not the charges for other things. :-)

I recently stayed and found that the current special is 1 night full rate, 50% off the second night, third night full rate, 50% off the fourth night, etc. I got this confirmed in advance simply by asking.

There are several consolidators showing Bht2300, or less, in a superior twin at the Dusit Thani in July. (Taxes included)
