bodhi Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Strictly an internal debate as this is my virgin trip so it's lacking the much needed first-hand knowledge opinion. The debate is this... a hotel near Nana(Majestic Suites-$39) or near Soi Cowboy(Manhattan-$28)? If Nana proves to be the best place to pull from, would the taxi fare to/from the Manhattan balance out the hotel nightly charge? Of course, that sparks another debate, which is better... Cowboy or Nana? Any experienced advice is welcome. bodhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ckrisg Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Hotel - better to stay near Nana, far better choice than Cowboy, MS, Nana or upmarket Landmark, Marriott Nightlife - I prefer Cowboy but do like Nana Taxi fare - A no brainer its about 45/50 baht nana to cowboy or you could go one way on the skytrain and get taxi back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidflux Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Nana and the Manhattan are about a 5 minute walk from each other, if that, so the distance to Cowboy is pretty much a moot point. I much prefer the Manhattan myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ckrisg Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Where is the Manhattan from the post I took it that it was near Cowboy. I would stay Majestic Suites and do Cowboy more than Nana Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
was_usvirgin Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 I think you should select your hotel based upon other factors than location. You're looking at walking distance between the two points for any able-bodied person. I only use a taxi between the two when it's late, there's no traffic, and the bars are about to close. Or, of course, when I'm with a bargirl. I, personally, am more comfortable around Cowboy and 33, than Nana or Patpong. Totally up2u. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guy Himmaparn Posted August 7, 2006 Report Share Posted August 7, 2006 Where is the Manhattan from the post I took it that it was near Cowboy. Soi 15, closer to Cowboy but not all that far from Nana. I like the location, as it is not too close to either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liquidflux Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 I actually enjoy the walk between Cowboy and soi 15 myself. Quite a show every night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bang Saen Guy Posted August 8, 2006 Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 If a THB 35 taxi ride figures into your holiday budget, you're in deep shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodhi Posted August 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2006 Thanks to all that replied and shared their opinion. It seems that either location would be fine. I didn't realize that Cowboy and Nana were so close to each other. Some maps can be a little deceiving. Very true, Bang Saen Guy. I would be in trouble if THB35 was a factor in the budget. I was more interested in discovering which hotel/area is preferred by the vets. bodhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
