Sabai Lodge, Soi 2

[python]

I know that other BM's as are interested in this hotel I am, so I will try to post a few pics I took only last week:

 

 

 

 

The hotel really does seem to be on the up. I just hope the local area is also.

The building with the scaffolding, beside the pool, is the extension to the Sabai Wing on Soi 1. Noise minimal. I heard nothing.

Look at the guys on the scaffold at the top of the building!

 

Regards,

Which photo is that.......................

 

Sorry I am being a cunt, they are all exactly the same!

Thanks for the update. I usually stay at the Sabai Inn but avoided it last month and moved to the Sabai Resort. I was worried about the noise but I have to report that the Resort was fine and I would stay there again. Low season rate via Internet was 1050 baht for superior room which is not as superior as that in the Sabai Inn so I will be moving back.

I stayed at The Lodge between 13th Sept to 2nd Oct and the noise was very minimal, never really bothered me at all.

Well, you are being a cunt, your word, get a life, though, not that I care.

But cunts, like you, don't help.

This is my first attempt to post photos.

 

Glad I bothered.

 

I accept that this board and others like it are the highlight of your day, so jacko, just ignore my posts.

Hate to bore you.

I got you to fix your error, and the only person I insulted was myself.

Which other boards are you talking of? No this isn't the highlight, just a routine prior to having a swim and then a massage with extras. That should cover the morning.

 

Don't let my little jibes distress you.

I tell u what, don't flatter yourself! you just ignore my posts. I think that would be best. You simply bore me. I believe if more BM's adopted this attitude then perhaps you would not feel obliged to comment on every post. Maybe,

after some time, you would understand that there is no requirement for your comment.

 

I believe many would welcome this thought!

Looks good, cheers for posting Python.

 

I stayed at the Sabai lodge in 2006 in a Dolphin pool cottage and loved it.

 

Although friend i met there at that time have stayed there every year since will this year

move to the Sabai Resort for some reason.

[nus01]

Thanks for the update, I am booked for February for 20 nights, was thinking of changing as i was worried about the noise however decided to risk it as i have stayed their 6-7 times and never been disappointed. Looks like i wont have any problems

Certainly looks different from when I was last in that area a couple of years ago,used to stay Sabai Inn and use Lodge pool.The pool area has been redesigned and looks better although smaller with those new buildings going up-nice pics.

There's a big noise problem on Soi 1 at the moment being caused by the construction of a new condo block next to the Indian restaurant.

 

The Soi 1 side of Sabai Wing is best avoided for the duration.

Monkeyman,

 

Where exactly is this condo block being built on Soi 1?

 

I know that if I go onto Soi 1 from Sabai Wing, it could not be opposite me and to the right is the Sabai Wing building work i have already mentioned and to the left that condo block was completed two years ago!

So surely any other ongoing building work must be some distance away?

If you go onto Soi 1 from Sabai Wing using the left gate there's an Indian restaurant right in front of you. The condo block is being built immediately to the left of this and is very close to Sabai Wing.

 

This is a photo of the site taken from Sabai Wing. The roof of the Indian restaurant can been seen in the bottom right of the picture.

Thanks for the update

Anybody know what's happened to the "Ruen Thai" chalets around the pool in the photo's?

Also when will the new building be opening?

Any info appreciated, I always stay at Sabai Lodge/Wing/Empress at Easter.

The Pics that Python showed was of the Ruen Thai pool and area of the Hotel, in the past you i'm guessing you used the main pool , the hotel has 4 pools

Is there any sign of construction starting in the big area at the top of Soi 2 where the beer bars were?

I would like to know also as I am thinking of staying in May at Sabai Empress which is just across from there.

Just of note for those who use the baht buses for transportation:

because of the destruction of the beer bars on Soi2, all the "convenient" buses that usta short-cut down soi2 has reduce considerably and the ones that do will not stop if empty, not wanting to take 1 person.

One of the real advantages of staying at the Sabii was you could walk right out to soi2 and easily get on a bath bus or walk up to the beer bars, neither is the case anymore!

That's Bad news - This was a big plus for me, very convenient.

Any more news please, when does the new wing look like opening? Have all the "Ruen Thai" chalets gone?

Yup, as the man says this is a bit of a downer. I did note in September that there was a lot less buses but at least there are a few and this makes it better than most soi's. If its light rain I stand under cover at the Sabai Inn and there will always be one that will stop for me.

Any updates on the building work near Sabai Wing?

 

SW was very good when I stayed there last year, and I’m thing of booking it again for mid-March.

 

Is the building noise still a problem, and what is the news on baht busses running on Soi 2?

 

Any info would be gratefully received.

Come on guys! Over twenty-four hours and still no reply? Someone must have wandered away from Walking Street and checked out Sabai Wing (or Sabai Lodge) at some stage. I’ll even refund the baht bus fare to the first one to reply!!

 

(fare only / tip not refundable / terms and conditions apply / your house at be at risk / etc etc)
