Don't Make the Mistake I Made - Book a Bar Girl Friendly Hotel
What is a Bar Girl Friendly Hotel?
I’ll define definition of a bar girl friendly hotel in Bangkok with a personal story.
When I first visited Bangkok 20 years ago, I did not book a bar girl friendly hotel. There are hotels in Bangkok that charge a joiner’s fee to hotel guests bringing unregistered guests back to their rooms.
This joiner’s fee can apply to your aunt, uncle, or your free loading friends that couldn’t afford a hotel room.
In any case, in the red light districts of Bangkok, Pattaya or any other city in Thailand with a red light district, we’re talking about Thai prostitutes.
Whether they be ladyboys, midgets or mules. Non-bar girl friendly hotels will charge a joiners fee for any unregistered guests.
Skip the Joiner Fee, Stay at a Bar Girl Friendly Hotel
There’s good news though. A hotel deemed bar girl friendly, guest friendly or simply girl friendly just means that the hotel has a policy of not charging customers extra money for taking an additional person to their rooms.
Either for short time or long time.
Now that you know what that means now I’m going to recommend where you want to find hotels with a bar girl friendly attitude.
Focus on Hotels Near Nana Entertainment Plaza (NEP) and Soi Cowboy
You want to seek out hotels near Nana Entertainment Plaza (NEP) and Soi Cowboy that allow bar girl visitors. Especially for all you first timers taking a trip to Bangkok and need a strategically placed hotel to hire Thai freelancers and oil massage girls to your rooms.
You’ll find a list of bar girl friendly hotels in Bangkok near Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy below. So you can just walk to the bars and freelance pick up spots right next to your hotel, sober or drunk.
Walking Distance from Hotel to GoGo Bars and Happy Ending Massages Shops is Key
Whether you’re only in Bangkok for 1 night, 2 nights or weeks you should stay at hotels close to NEP or Soi Cowboy. The key is to stay close to all the action to maximize your time and enjoyment.
It doesn’t matter if you want to take a ladyboy or a Russian prostitute to your hotel room. Just don’t bring goats and pigs. They look down on that. The hotels listed below are perfect places to stay for you to pay for sex with Thai prostitutes.
As you can see on the map you don’t exactly have to stay right in NEP and Soi Cowboy. You can stay on any Soi on Sukhumvit road between both red light districts.
Because many prostitutes know a lot of tourists stay near hotels around central Sukhumvit area so that’s where Thai and foreign prostitutes tend to hang out.
Because you not only have a lot of choices for budget no frill hotels, but also serviced apartments to full service big shot hotels in Sukhumvit to pick and choose from.
Don’t Make the Same First Timer Mistake I Made
There are hotels in Bangkok that do charge a fee for taking unregistered guests (and I am referring to Thai hookers). And it’s not because these hotels want to protect their clean image.
These fees are simply an extra charge for having an unregistered guest stay at a room overnight or even for a short 1 hour period.
These extra charges can be as little as 500THB or up to 1000THB depending on each individual hotel’s discretion. Like I mentioned already I got charged 600THB the first time I visited Bangkok’s red light districts.
Lucky for you I did a bunch of research already on which hotels are bar girl friendly. Rest assure that every hotel listed below are guest friendly. And will not penalize you for inviting a prostitute to your room.
Hotels Near Red Light Districts is Where You Should Be Staying
If you’re in Bangkok searching for Thai girls in the sex industry there really is no reason why you should be staying at a hotel at a far location. You’re going to see cheap hotel rates for 3 star hotels located far away from the red light districts. Don’t let those cheap rates tempt you.
It doesn’t make sense to pay extra money for taxis and wasting time stuck in traffic. And believe me, Bangkok traffic is ranked one of the worst in Southeast Asia. In 2017 Bangkok was ranked #1 for the worst traffic in the world according to CNN.
There are many hotels being built today near the red light districts particularly Sukhumvit that are guest friendly and are affordable. Some even really cheap.
So I repeat, there’s no reason whatsoever staying at a hotel too far from Nana Plaza and Soi Cowboy.
Finding The Right Hotels
The Top 5 Guest Friendly Hotels In Sukhumvit District
Sukhumvit district is considered an affluent area in Bangkok. Many expats or long vacationers live in the area for convenience and of course the famous nightlife.
Tourists of all types stay in the area because there are a lot of businesses focused mainly on foreigners. And I’m not just referring to all the titty bars and massage parlors. There are many restaurants, shops and markets as well.
Why Stay at Bar Girl Friendly Hotels in Sukhumvit?
Sukhumvit district is an ideal location to settle in for your sexcapade in Bangkok, especially if it’s your first visit to the red light districts.
Nana and Soi Cowboy go go bars are at your finger tips. There are a plethora of bars to pick up freelancers in all types of establishments from tiny beer bars on the streets to big pool bars scattered throughout the the side streets of central Sukhumvit.
And there are 2 soapy massage parlors on Sukhumvit road; Annie’s Massage on Soi 2 across from Majestic Grande Hotel and Darling’s Massage on Soi 12 right across from the Terminal 21 shopping center.
But the biggest reason why you should stay at a hotel that allows you to take bar girls and freelancers to your room is that the hotel requires your guests to deposit their I.D. cards with security or the front desk. And also it is the hotel’s policy to check that the girl is not under-aged. Most importantly, if something bad happens they will know who to look for.
Then there are 3 BTS Sky Train stations that run along Sukhumvit road including one MRT subway line located right on the Asoke/Sukhumvit junction.
Stay at a hotel near a BTS station like Nana and Asok and you can easily get to other parts of the city, particularly Phrom Phong district which is one stop away from Asok station to find many oil massage shops.
Also if you are mainly coming to get a blow job and hand job every single day in Bangkok then check out my guide on where to stay in Phrom Phong.
But if you want even more gogo bar action you can take the MRT subway train at Sukhumvit station and you can be in Patpong red light district in 15 minutes.
Plus the Sukhumvit area has a lot of food options. Many restaurants with varieties of cuisine are at your fingertips from Argentinian steak houses to Arab restaurants with hookahs. If you want cheap and tasty Thai food I recommend heading over to the Terminal 21 Mall’s food court on the 5th floor.
So there are a lot of reasons why picking a hotel in the Sukhumvit district is the wisest decision you’ll ever make for having fun in the city.

These eight 5 star hotels are the best known luxury hotels right in Bangkok’s Sukhumvit red light district. And you can’t go wrong staying at any of these brand name luxury properties. Though if you really want to enjoy some luxury yet don’t want to break the bank, I recommend booking a room at the Grande Centre Point Hotel Terminal 21.
Just like to add that there are no such things as a cheap 5 star hotel in Bangkok. I know people will ask me and I’m sorry to say they don’t exist. That said, 5 star hotels in Bangkok are an incredible value. By Western standards, $150USD to $200USD for a room at a fancy 5 star hotel is unheard of. Westin, Sheratons, Landmark, Grand Millennium and Sofitel Sukhumvit, are high quality properties in Bangkok.
You really can’t go wrong by choosing any of the 5 star joiner friendly hotels listed above and all are located right in the heart of the city’s red light epicenter.
More Reasons to Stay in Sukhumvit
All of the hotel properties listed here are very close to popular red light districts in Sukhumvit. And will allow guests to invite prostitutes; bar girls, freelancers and ladyboys to rooms at no extra charge. This is an advantage especially if you are planning to short time (1 hour) a bar girl. Since you are closer to your hotel you won’t have to spend most of the hour getting back to your room.
And for all intents and purposes bar girls prefer when customers stay at any of the hotels listed above because all are close to the bars. And they know that once they hand their card over to hotel security or reception desk they are offered some type of protection since their ID cards are kept along with guests’ room information. This is an added bonus for your safety and security as well as theirs.
The other advantages of staying at any of these hotels is because of the Sky Trains that runs right above Sukhumvit road. You’ll have ease of access to train stations with multiple entrances. If you stay at a hotel closer to Nana Entertainment Plaza the nearest station would be Nana BTS Sky Train. Over on Soi Cowboy you have entrances to Asoke station. And Sukhumvit MRT train which is a subway is also right around the corner.
Either way, all of the hotels near the city’s major red light districts listed above are quite close in proximity to major adult entertainment centers including massage parlors. Making the area a very strategic location for visiting Bangkok’s best go go bars and massage shops.
Most Hotels In Bangkok Have Strict 2 Person Occupancy Rule
A lot of hotels in Bangkok that allow prostitutes inside guests rooms have a very strict 2 person per room occupancy.
If you’ve booked 1 room for yourself and a friend and registered the room under both names, you may have to pay a joiner fee for that bar girl, even when your friend is physically not present in the room. In the eyes of the hotel, you’ve broken the 2 person per room occupancy and thus have to pay a joiner fee.
This is true for small to medium size hotels where reception staff are able to remember guests they’ve personally checked in. So, if you’re traveling with a friend together, it is a wise choice to either book a room separately or even better book a room that has two bedrooms.
