Keerati

[meatjoy 0]

I want to stay in the Soy Bukao/LK metro area in late August for 15 nights. Metro Apartments are full as well as The Rockhouse. Keerati quoted me 650 for small room and 850 for medium during this time. Does this include any weekly rate discount? Are the small rooms adequate, or should I pay the extra 200 baht a night?

 

Furthermore, I really don't care about having room service or a pool. Can I find a better deal in the area, now that my first 2 options have sold out.

 

Thanks a lot, ---meat

The small rooms are way too small and dark. I for sure would pay the extra 200 for the medium room who is quite spacious albeit basic.

if keerati are offering you rooms at this price grab it with both hands , the normal price of the middle room in keerati is 1700 b a night and the rooms are quite nice but not in my opinion worth that price but at the price youve been quoted it cannot be beaten.

 

the studio room is very small however.

 

i think they have misquoted you there prices though . if they havent , then youve landed lucky.

There is one place in Soi LK Metro that I have never heard any comments on any board.

Travellers Rest

 

Our friends actually own the building and originally fitted the 16 rooms out and it was called PV Apartments. At the time they opened the soi was just kicking off and Lolitta's had just opened also.

 

We had 3 friends who were staying there for a couple of months and their rooms were neat and tidy and a fair size. The rooms were rented out for a good price.

 

Our friends who own the building were offered a good deal to lease the building out and took up the offer. It just surprises me that I have never heard any mention of the place since.

Mulphy, so you are saying I should jump on Keerati at 850 baht instead of Thai Archer or the new hotel (Paradise?)? Do you know the introductory rates at the new place? Wish I could stay at the Rockhouse... But as you know it's full. cheers---meat

yes , i think if your getting the middle sized room , which is a one bedroom suite for 850 b a night , grab it with both hands.

 

the thai archers rooms are nice , clean and well fitted , they are done in a thai /bali style , but they are not very big , probably around half the size of my rooms , but i wouldnt not stay in their rooms .they are ok.

 

keerati is a bit more upper class than that , the rooms are also done out in a thai/bali style , most have 4 poster beds etc, the keerato belongs to the metropole hotel ansd so you get to use the pool and gym facilities there for free. as previously mentioned the studio room is very small , im not sure that i could be comfortable in that size of room , but the one bedroom suite , which is almost the same size as my own rooms is very nice. the normal rate is 1700 b a night , so if you can get it at 850 b a night youve knocked it off. only downside if you can call it that , is that you need to pay extra for electric , water and internet usage on top.

 

the pasadena hotel , well ive not been in it yet and havent seen the finished article , i cant comment on room sizes but i know it took a long time in the making and it looks like fairly good quality from outside. they are doing a special offer introductory price of 800 b a night and 1000 b a night , so they must have 2 different sizes of room.

 

hope that helps.
