  • Please stay there and feedback how rubbish it is as it is such a bad location that I do not want to be tempted to stay there

        Nope, sorry. I'd rather the idiots who rush over there to be there the day it opens list the things that aren't working, as well as the other opening nights they've attended. No, I am serious.

        BTW, you two will recognise one of the staff in Woo Bar at the W. I bumped into her in BarSu, where she used to work, last night. Mr M the lovely small concierge guy has gone there as well, which is a blow to the SGS. She said official opening should be March-ish.

        Talking of last night, I managed to dodge a bullet with the Living Room Posse. Even though it was the Kings Birthday the ex Manager Ms L had declared it was to be her big leaving Do before she moves to LA next week. They were all going out mob handed, including a few ex-Living Room and BarSu staff (Mr B (name of holiday destination) was one) and they wanted me to come. But I have been going out on these nights out with SGS girls for 4 or 5 years and it always end the same way.........well for me, and Lobster.

        The were even on my case in BarSu where they knew I had gone after Living Room closed but I stood firm, and lied about having a meeting first thing.

        • From what I am hearing it looks like it was a good idea to give the W a miss....for now.

          Anyone got any plans for a visit ?.

          • For the Hyatt fans on here, and there are a few.....

            The lounge at the GH Erawan is currently closed for refurbishment as floors 14-18 are currently being done. As a replacement they are sending guests to Tables restaurant on the First Floor for Breakfast (which I didn't make so can't comment on...) and evening cocktails. I have to say the it was a nice change having a drink there in the evening, especially sat at a table looking out over the impressive Lobby. The lounge is being extended as well as refurbished.

              Did they say how long this temporary option would last? [Yes, I know that's kind of a loaded question in Thailand. ]

                        • sqdazz,

                          Yes the DT BKK is open, not sure how long it has been open though...

                          The new Hilton down on Sukhumvit shouldn't be too far away either...

                            If I am not wrong DT open last month. Hilton just next door, I saw the building very close to each other when I passed the main Sukhumvit road
