If you stay in the Continental Hotel the desk manager will do the same service for a similar fee.This hotel is about 60 Ringitt (660 Baht) per night and is in the centre of the night life area.Directly across the street is the Soho Bar which is a good hang out.  |
I dread going to Penang once a year... Soh IS the best night spot around, but even that is horrible. I know the Thai consular at the embassy, she is a very nice lady and will let just about anyone get their visa in 1 day if you ask in advance. I never spend the night in that shit hole called Penang anymore, I grab an early morning flight and come back to BKK that same day with my new 1 year non-im B visa!
