I went to Pattaya January 2024 on another business trip and stayed a 2 weeks this time. Here is a report.
Walking Street; starts around 8 pm on weekends 9 pm other days. Good for drinks and a lot of beautiful ladys on poles. Take home only. Prices are high.
Soi 6; starts around 4 pm and is the best deal around. Best for drinking and hanging out; and or a quick 30 min to 1 hour lay upstairs, no rush. Not good for take home before 11 pm / midnight. Price is 400 bahts to use the room upstairs. Standard price for ladies short time (up to 1 hour) is 1,000 bhats however some girls have started asking for more. If you negotiate before hand they will usually say 1,500 or 2,000 and then you have to talk it down to 1,000-1,500 which is a waste of time. Instead, just ask the girl to go upstairs, then give her what you want afterwards. The stsndard price is 1,000 mininum, so anything else is a tip and cannot be enforced. The mamasan will be on your side. Its always uncovered BJ. There are usually 500-800 girls working each night so you can find everything from a 3-9 in looks. If the girl likes you, you will get a GFE experience.
BJ Bars; starts around 1-3 pm and is the cheapest you will find. Girls are not very attractive (3-6) but there is usually one or two per bar that are 7+ in looks with the occasional 8 if you are lucky. Price is only 800 bahts for a BJ and 1,000-1,200 bahts for sex including the bar fine. Its always uncovered BJ, cum in mouth, but they all seem to spit.
Other Areas; most of the other areas are for lonely guys looking for company and a longer GFE experience and company to talk, drink, and play pool or games with. Most of these places have older, less attractive ladies and are more expensive than Soi 6, but cheaper than Walking Street.
Winner; by far is Soi 6 for the low price, great value, ease of being able to go anytime in the day before late night, being able to go upstairs and not back to your hotel, and the ability to choose through hundreds of women to find your type. I have had genuine 8's and even a 9 there for 1,000 bahts and many GF type expereinces. The only problem is that some girls are starting to ask for and expecting 2 x the money. I don't know of a better value in the world for price or ease of going before night than soi 6 and athens, Greece.
