Luxury Bangkok condo is like Beijing – Chinese treating it as a hotel

Yet more evidence is coming to light of people illegally renting rooms on a daily basis to tourists. 

And this one is damning of the Chinese – both owners and visitors. 

Thai Rath reported that an owners’ group on Facebook from “Condo C Ekkamai” (Sukhumvit Soi 63) had reached the end of their tether. 

Chinese owners of rooms in the luxury condo were renting to hoards of their compatriots.

Rentals were daily – illegal under Thai law. 

At Songkran the condo resembled Beijing, they said. 

The owners had set up check-in and check-out facilities and baggage storage. There was a team of maids on hand to do the cleaning in between guests.

The ongoing problem had been the subject of many complaints to the juristic person who said they were powerless to stop it. 

The issue is becoming more and more prevalent in Thailand. Only rentals of 30 days plus are allowed to outsiders at condos. 

Daily rent is against the law.
