Pattaya Hotels

1. Are there any legit vendors from which you can rent apartments at VT6.

https://www.dancewatchers.com/

https://www.honeyscoffeehouse.com/

These 2 are well known website for VT6 since years.

2. How is it bringing guests to VT6 versus a hotel? Is there a reception? Do they take their ID?
3. Can you bring multiple gusts?

Some condos will ask for ID card, some condos will not blink a eye and ask nothing to your guest.

In the condos you can bring back home guests you want, important is not disturb your neighbors.

I saw that many people recommend VT6.

I want to make sure I'm not renting from a shady website.

Thanks.

The only downside is the breakfast is a little lack luster if you want a western breakfast. Eggs on the buffet were fried medium, a little runny. The meat selection is only chicken sausage and slices of ham. Bread selection was white, wheat, various rolls and buns, and silver dollar pancakes and french toast (though the later two, not both at the same time).

They also had a Thai selection, fried rice, pork, chicken, etc. Fruits were cut watermellon, mango and pineapple.

Worst part was the hot drinks. Tea brewed in bulk from lipton, coffee seemed to be the real deal, but they have both sitting on a hot plate and it very often ends up boiling both. I was able to ask the kitchen to make an omelet as well as fried egg hard though.

What more do you want?

I have checked out, so I might as well review the hotel I stayed at.

Best Beach Villa, right in the middle of Soi 5. Equal distance to both second and beach road. I would say the rooms are a good value. They are large, there is ample space, room to work on a laptop if you've brought it, and places to charge your phone right next to the bed on either side.

I didn't use the pool nor gym, but it was available. No issues with bringing back a girl.

Noise was acceptable. It never kept me up.

If you are going to spend your time on soi 6, this is probably the best value you can get.

Hey guys, I work in the airlines and travel standby which sometimes results in delays or cancellations. Can anybody shed insight into any pitfalls I might find if I book my hotel when I arrive to Thailand? Will the prices be exorbitant? Nice rooms / guest friendly or convenient places booked up?

My dates are arrive Feb. 28th til March 7th.

Thanks in advance!

The rate for one time housekeeping with change of linen at VT6 for a 90 m2 condo is 1000 Baht. If you stay more than 3 weeks buying a cheap vacuum cleaner might be a good idea. So much for Thailand being a low-wage country.

Wow, that's really taking the piss. I usually stay in Bangkok these days, and never paid more than 500 THB, not even last summer when staying a 10 minute walk from Soi Cowboy in a posh 2 BR condo. Bed sheets I wash myself though, as I know how to use the washing machine and wash in the morning means dry in the evening.

Planning to revisit in March but only for 4-5 days. Booked 2 days in Bella Villa Prima to be near the the big soapies and remaining days will book either LK empress or flipper lodge near the beach Road.

I like the location of LK empress (right on the beach Road) and saw few recent reviews here. How are Bella Villa Prima and flipper lodge hotels for our hobby?

Flipper Lodge.

Stayed at Flipper Lodge. Never had a problem taking ladies back to my room.

No girls don't adjust their rates higher or lower just because your hotel is nice or not. On the contrary, you may find girls who will stay a bit longer with you if you're in a nicer place. But you did say you want LT at the Hilton so you will now be paying LT prices, not ST ones.

Just make up some BS story that you only have this room because you're using company points.

I've had more than one girl come back for short time and stay LT for the same price because the room was nice.

Would you not consider the Bayview, same good location as the Wave, but better price.

I am going to Pattaya in April and will be staying at Bayview. Can anyone tell me whether it's possible to take a girl back to the room? Or do they create problems? Can't stay at another hotel as I am getting an excellent deal there due to a vacation club membership.

Same rooms, same owner, same clientele, same breakfast. There is a new manager who has been there for for a few years. Super nice guy from the UK. It has not changed. The massage shop directly across the street has a good selection but you need to negotiate their higher asking prices down.

Booked this for 3 days based on the suggestions here. Great little hotel, very helpful staff. Small selection of breakfast but was good. Excellent location close to Beach Road and Second Road, tons of restaurants, money exchange, pubs nearby. Walkable to both Soi6 and Walking Street and Girl Friendly. Highly recommended.

Hey, spent around 3-4 weeks in Pattaya last Aug / Sept as a trial run. Found hotel recommendations here and ended up booking KTK Hotel for most of my stay. Had a great time!

The hotel has spacious rooms with comfy beds, a decent kitchen, and a good bathroom. The shower pressure was a bit meh, but after years of regular travel, I think it's an international issue that needs a UN task force to fix. Most other guests were Chinese / Korean / Indian. I never made it to breakfast on time, but Siam Lounge across the street had good late breakfast option at lunchtime. Alex Bar was my go-to for drinks and snacks, and there's a 7/11 and an ATM nearby.

Now, I'm heading back to Pattaya in April / May for another 3 weeks. Debating whether to stick with KTK or try something new, I took a chance with Page 10 after seeing their rooms on Agoda. They're smaller than KTK but look better, the rooftop bar and pool was a selling point as well. Checked the map and noticed that Hemingway is close, along with a few massage spots and another 7/11.

If anyone has experience staying at Page 10, feel free to share!

There's no need to fret about housekeeping. When booking just say you want housekeeping to come by x times a week and I'm sure most hosts will arrange that for you without any problems for an extra charge of 300-500 baht per time.

The rate for one time housekeeping with change of linen at VT6 for a 90 m2 condo is 1000 Baht. If you stay more than 3 weeks buying a cheap vacuum cleaner might be a good idea. So much for Thailand being a low-wage country.

This would be my first time at this place so could use some help and tips. Should I ask for a higher floor while booking? Any suggestions for some nice rooms in this place that are not noisy?

Are the kitchens good enough for some Thai cooking by a. Ahm. Guest? Do the safes work nicely and are indeed safe etc. ?

TIA.

Higher floors (above 14th) are as good as free of mosquitos. What I am carefull to book is Walking Street side or pool side. Cooking facilities vary from apartment to apartment. Who wants to cook in Thailand? Mirrors and how soft the mattress is matter more IMO.

Thank you all for replying and sharing the TIPs, looks like I am ready to try VT6. I booked a partial ocean view room, lets see how it turns out.

Did the room you booked show a photo of the exact room you're getting? A 'partial ocean view room' could mean a room on the side of the building right beside the Hilton monstrosity and all you see is a TINY sliver of the water. If ocean view is important to you pay for ocean view.
