Elkski Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Just imagine checking in to a room with someone who had the virus. Or enjoy your taxi ride. I agree. Check your insurance policy and also your countries travel warnings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buick Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 you might consider retroasis hotel on sukhumvit btwn asoke and phrom phong BTS stations. it is on the odd soi side (odd numbers) roughly across from soi 22 (i think it is near soi 29). there is an au bon pain on corner of soi 31/sukhumvit that you can use for breakfast or further down that way is the robin hood pub. it is a small place, not expensive, get the best room (45 sqm) and enjoy !!! http://www.retroasishotel.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avoid any "all you can eat" buffets as the Chinese will be all over it. Eat somewhere else. Also be careful when walking on the side walk, or traveling on the airport train.

Chinese travel in huge numbers so a 6 room guesthouse is highly unlikely to have Chinese guests. Lots of younger Chinese travel independently and stay in small establishments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even there, the number of infections per day has dropped 20%. Comparing infection rate and deaths to viruses that started in far less dense population areas or places like Hong Kong that don’t try and hide the facts from their people and have far better medical facilities is disingenuous. There’s a reason why so few people out of China have died from it. ”But the number of new infections nationally was down almost 20% from the day before, from 3,062 to 2,478.” BBC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Matador Posted February 13, 2020 Share Posted February 13, 2020 Khao San Road for some reason is almost only for Western tourists. But maybe better wait one month or 2 to see how things evolve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like the Boeing 737 is probably going to be the safest plane in the sky when it's finally allowed to fly, the Chinese now are the safest group to be around. I've got new for you, the Boeing 737 has been flying for a very long time already. I took one just a couple of weeks ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
