Ask any traveler to Bangkok where they've visited and 9 out of 10 times you'll hear the words Patpong red light district. It's not just a commercial sex district as most would believe. Hundreds of stalls hawking t-shirts and dubious luxury handbags line the streets of Patpong side by side across from the nefarious business of go go bars and sex clubs.
You haven't visited Bangkok at all if you haven't been to Patpong. That's what anyone who has been to Bangkok will tell you.
Patpong's red light district is an ideal location to stay in for vacation. It has a mixed variety of hotel accomodations that is right for any budget. From first class honeymoon suites for the newlyweds to basic no frills hostels for backpackers. But the most popular of all hotels types in Bangkok are ones that are deemed guest friendly. These hotels don't charge extra fees for inviting guests back to their rooms.
Guest friendly hotels in Bangkok are economical for the budget traveler but not all hotels have such a policy. Non guest friendly hotels charge a joiner fee and it's non negotiable and must be paid. Normally the fee is around THB 500 per night extra but depending on the hotel's policy it can go as high as THB 2000.
Patpong has the fewest amounts of these hotels in the area which is why they are very popular with many frequent travelers familiar with Patpong. Here are the names of such popular hotels:
- Montien Hotel
- Rose Hotel
- Tawana Hotel
- Swiss Lodge
- Bally's Suites Silom
All of those hotels are in prime locations and just a few minutes walk to the go go bars, beer bars, pubs and clubs in Patpong. Don't miss out on Patpong's Night Market found right in the middle of Patpong 1. You can't miss it as it's right besides the go go bars. Patpong Night Market has loads of Thai souvenirs, local artworks and of course suspiciously cheap Rolex watches for sale.
If you want to venture outside of Patpong, it wouldn't be a problem at all as there are two train systems nearby for quick and easy transport to other commercial and entertainment zones in Bangkok.
