Pattaya Hotels

[Hobbyist2]

Can't get much closer to action if you stay in Soi 6 (Queen Victoria Inn). It allows easy access to other areas also.

Pattaya is MUCH smaller than you think. You will be "close to the action" staying at ANY hotel that is:

SOUTH of Pattaya North Road, aka Pattaya Nua Road.

WEST of Soi Buakaow.

NORTH of Pattaya South Road, aka Pattaya Thai.

There are also hotels located in the Walking Street complex itself.

Secrets is more like a guesthouse, incorporated as it is into the same area as the bar and nightclub. It's smack dab in the middle of the Walking Street complex. My major objection to staying on Walking Street is the noise. Unless you party until dawn every night it's going to be a concern. Even if that's not an issue for you, there is more to being "close to the action" than meets the eye. Don't forget that Walking Street is only one of several locales that cater to Naughty Boys. There is also Soi 6 plus Soi LK Metro and the surrounding areas. Moreover, Walking Street has ever-more "civilian" traffic, and I find it a little off-putting to stay someplace where tour groups are constantly trudging by. Again, as the Thais like to say: Up To You.

My recommendation would be to fire up Agoda.com and use the function that displays hotel on a map. You can easily get an idea of what lodging is available in what locations at what price.

There is 'Miss Information', 'Miss Information, ' and more 'Miss Information. ' Okay Mr. M. You continue to do your thing and fuck girls under the age of 20. I, maybe along with a few other members, look forward to reading your account of waking up on a cement floor in a Thai prison. Hope it's more exciting than your rambling nonsense in the Pattaya reports section today.

Ehmm. Thank you for the auspicious expectations. Now beside that teens are not my taste, post (if you can) some authoritative source to prove your point about age of consent in Thailand.

[Bro2012]

Sorry but you have the wrong information here, beside being uselessly judgmental. As often mentioned and discussed, the minimum age for "paid sex" in Thailand is 18.

#Thailand.

However, to work in an establishment where alcohol is served, the minimum age is 20. And, of course any hotel can set whatever policy they wanted.

What's a matter with you? Stupid question! You expect a hotel to break the law for you? The law says 20 is the minimum age. Surely that is young enough for you! Show some respect for the country you are visiting.

april suites pattaya.

just back home after spending 3 weeks in thailand

found this hotel on line booked a standard room for two weeks

who says you need to pay top dollar for top quality.

this hotel is fab

newly built

cheap price 1400bht per night.

free wi fi.

two laptops downstairs (though speed could be a bit slow at times)

swimming pool / small sauna and gym on top floor.

nice friendly staff.

its on second road soi 6/1 about 5/10 min walk from the main action of soi 7/8 etc.

you need to walk down a narrow slum alley to get to it but trust me guys this place is good

booking in advance on line is cheaper me and my buddies liked it so much we stayed another

week but they did charge us a slightly higher room rate i think it was an extra 250/300 bhts but still can't complain.

this is my third visit to pattaya and even though the quality was down on previous visits still had a fab time.

just need to get time and write down ma tales of a adventure and sin.

Please be aware that a new hotel is being built directly in front of this hotel, they are currently working on the foundations, when it is finished the sea view rooms will be pretty pointless.

[Bro2012]

I consider to stay there also. Do you know if there are any restrictions to let girls of 18 yeas old. I saw someone complained that some hotels let only girls over 20.

If anyone else knows anything about Queen Victoria Inn

I have stayed at the Queen Vic a number of times. It is smack in the middle of Soi 6. Just walk out the front door and there she blows. I had no issues from any of the times I had stayed there. There is no elevator if that is of an issue for you.

I stayed recently at the Areca Lodge. The hotel is quite good though a bit dated. I loved the pools especially the squared one at the Corona building.

The rooms come with a decent breakfast but only available until 10 am and this is a problem is you like freelances at discos like me. The area of Pattaya the hotel is in, is perfect: many bars in Soi Diana and Soi Buakao. A few meters you find Soi Lk metro with a great atmosphere, lots of go go bars, naughty massages and eateries. I just went to Walking Street for the discos. There are plenty of thins to do in this area. A few hundreds meters away you are in Soi Honey with. In my opinion- the best soapie in Pattaya. In spite of the many attractions in the area, live bands, beer bars, karaokes and so on, if your rooms overlooks the back part of the hotel there is not noise to be heard. BUT When I was there in mid February A HUGE CONSTUCTION SITE was under way. They, re starting to build something large (hotel probably) and I suppose it's going to be a permanent source of noise. To be honest while I was there, the stopped in the evening, but they began operating the machinery at 8 in the morning, and while in the pool noises could be heard.

When I checked in I was told not to bring "friends " under 20. All in all a nice hotel, let's see how the construction issue evolves ¿ can somebody staying there now update with the situation?

On the SIM-card subject: I get my SIM from 7-eleven for B50 (1, 2-call). It comes with B15 "free calls", which isn't much.

Check your balance and keep checking your balance: After a while they offer a deal. 200 mins for B150 valid for 20 days.

I always take that deal. Done so on 5 or 6 trips now. It's the best deal out there I figure.

If you have to use pay phones, always dial 1, 2, 3, 4 before the entire number, including the zero, on land lines or cell, to get a massive instant discount.
