Olddaddy Posted August 16, 2022 Posted August 16, 2022 Justlooking back on my old emails I have a booking at the Pinnacle in Bangkok in 2006 talking to Jimmy. I remember that , is Pinnacle still around and if not when did it close? Also I didn't notice the BBB Inn around last time, i ended up getting a refund there one night must be around 10 years ago they didn't clean the room before I arrived so decided not to stay Quote
reader Posted August 16, 2022 Posted August 16, 2022 The Pinnacle Lumpinee Hotel remains listed by Agoda. I seem to recall reading that Jimmy (who many visitors may have booked trough) is no longer in residence. Olddaddy 1 Quote

I quite like the Pinnacle back then,I even used to stay at the BBB Inn but that went downhill. Of course now my favourite place is Tartawan but last month I stated at the Furama . Quote

PeterRS Posted August 17, 2022 Posted August 17, 2022 I have been in a taxi passing Pinnacle Hotel quite regularly. It was reported as permanently closed a few months ago and there seemed to be quite a lot of construction equipment around. There is still a website but with no local phone or email contact details. Also in the description it states that nearby is the Lumphini Thai Boxing Stadium (moved about 4 years ago) and the Suan Lum Night Bazaar (moved at least 10 years ago)! Yet the website apears to take bookings and booking sites other than agoda also list it. https://pinnacle-lumpinee-bangkok.h-rez.com/contact.htm vinapu 1 Quote
