[QUOTE=SpokaneHobby]I have been going over past posts and I am going to Pattaya at the end of July and I was wondering what is a an upscale hotel that is girl friendly and in the center of the action. I could really use some help. Thanks alot.[/QUOTE]The Marriott is girl friendly, great pool, has discreet entrances on both second and beach roads and costs less than the Vault. Been a few times rooms excellent.
Marriott costs less than the vault, you're getting a great deal from JW, wish I could.
Best I can find is $109 USD per night at the JWM, the Vault is 2800Bt.
The Hard Rock Hotel around Soi 6 is really nice also.

I would like to know who you book your rooms with for the Marriott? If they can get a room there cheaper than the vault I think other people on this forum would like to Know also....
[QUOTE=Rockabilly77]Estiny at soi 10 is the hotel I was refering to!
I spoke with them and confirmed it. This hotel is brand new and very clean, has adsl as well as free internet use in the lobby, this place is girl freindly. The pool on the 3rd floor is excellent and the rooms are very nice.
The price I was qouted was 900baht. I think last year I paid 880baht, however the place was under construction. I think for the price it is a great place. If you don't mind paying that much then check it out.
We had a awsome pool party last time I was there with about 6 bg's and two of my buddies and myself.
Anyways I like the location and the quality of the place. I recomend it to anyone![/QUOTE]Dude, How good is the pool and the rooms at this Eastiny Place & Inn?
BTW: the location you refer to indicates this hotel is the Eastiny Residence (ER) Hotel (just clarifying hotels so I don't make a mistake).
I am thinking of changing hotels for my upcoming holiday and want to "upgrade" in quality. I have usually stayed over on Soi Pattaya Land 2, towards Walking Street area. But I am growing weary staying at the same hotel (have been since 1997). So I'd appreciate any information you can share with me about the ER Hotel.
Also, I don't pay much attention to street signs, so about how far (time or distance) is Walking Street from the ER Hotel? Please advise.
Lastly, are the rooms plain and boring or do they have "amenities" such as mirrors on the ceilings, assorted "toys", and mini bar w/fridge? Please advise.
Thanks in advance.

Information Please: Does anyone have information on the Champ Pattaya Hotel?
It's located at Pattaya Land Soi 3 and Second Road? It's in the vicinity of the Bamboo Bar and Wat Chaimongkon.
The URL: [url]http://www.thailand-hotel.net/champ-pattaya-hotel-thailand/[/url]
The photos on the website fail to really show the rooms, the pool, and any other amenities. Is it girl friendly? Good A/C? Clean? Mini bar w/fridge? Maids friendly?
Thanks in advance.

I just booked my hotels for my next trip to Thailand in July on:

They have a "price guarantee" of refund if you can get a better web deal!

Shamas O'D[/QUOTE]I stayed in the Lek, opposite the Eastiny on soi 13.
It was $122 for two nights, but it had great rooms with good balconies and was opposite the Eastiny, which had many rooms which were sandwiched against another building, horrible.
Nice staff, great service, great pool, great breakfast-the place was full when I was there in May!
Areca Lodge, I have good reports on other forums.
Spokane - GREAT PLACE!!! just a bit pricey for ME (up soi Diana between 2nd and Buakhao - that's to the east, actually ) Roughly 1200B/night and GF BUT NOT SMOKER FRIENDLY (I think they have a website)
I tend to go to Sawasdee myself if I want A/C - their "promotion" is 5 for 4, 7 for 5 and 15 for 10 (nights) at 600B/night base rate (no pool though except at Siam and no lifts except at Siam or Pattaya)
[QUOTE=SpokaneHobby]Areca Lodge, I have good reports on other forums.[/QUOTE]
I was planing to stay there but emailed lk metropol and they gave me a deal off the daily rate. As was said before the lk is a place to stay for a long time as opposed to my week and a half stay as the prices drop dramtically...
But try email them and ask if they can offer a discount based on the length of your stay..
[QUOTE=SpokaneHobby]Areca Lodge, I have good reports on other forums.[/QUOTE]
Spokane,
Areca is nice, clean and has in-room safe. Nice staff and girl-friendly.
LK Metropole, which AliasDonkey recommended - just across the street is definitely superior to it and also girl-friendly.
Heard with areca that they were busy with the pool. COntruction work etc. Has they finished it?
What do you think of the following hotels...Jomtien Thani and Jomtien Garden? Are they good and girlfriendly? Does the girls find it a problem to go to Jomtien from pattaya or is that no problem?
Other hotels I am interested in...the Cosy Hotel and the Island View Hotel. Are these good and girlfriendly hotels?
Thanks.
The best prices I have found on the net come from [url]www.AsiaRooms.com[/url] are they a good company I have never used them before and I was wondering about them are they ok.
Thanks for the help
The Sabai Lodge Hotel complex is a huge area with 4 Hotels inside this area. They are named after the 4 pools. So we have the Large Pool, the Dolphin Pool, the Ruan Thai Pool and the Sabai Wing Pool.
In the near surrounding you have the Big see, a large shopping centre with different kind of restaurants, the 3 Sabaii massage parlours, lot of entertainment like beer bars and the famous travesty shows of Alkazar and Tiffanies.
More information about the Sabai Lodge location and the different prizes can be found in the internet. Photos are available too.
I had booked the Deluxe Ruan Thai House via internet for 4 weeks and a prize for about 1. 950 Baht a day.
The description of the Hotel says:
Large Thai classical house, ground floor level at Ruan Thai pool area, double bed, luxury shower room, writing desk, private sitting area.
Opposite these houses is the Ruan Thai Deluxe see, a building with 3 stories.
That is the description of the Hotel in the internet. And the reality? Here is my answer:
Everything they described is true. The little houses are excellent, the chattels very comfortable. The room service worked well. Little problems we had with our private Ice machine – the air-condition – Sometimes ice-cubes were thrown out of the aircon without any order of mine. But one call to the reception and in a few minutes the mechanic came and tried to repair. In vain, as it seemed, because he had to repair that thing several times.
The breakfast in the Sala Thai Restaurant was good. As well American breakfast as also Thai food, European sausages and cheese and a lot of fruits. So I think the breakfast is acceptable for everybody. My steady Thai lady agreed with me. Finally I should say, that everything is ok with that Hotel
. BUT
Yes, there is a big but, and I can not keep quiet about that.
Opposite the Ruan Thai building is the Western and country club Kum Pann, mostly frequented by Thais. And only 100 meters away is the huge beer bar scene of the Soi 2.
That means: Loud, extremely loud music until 1 a. M. No possibility to sit outside your house on the terrace and enjoy the night and the weather and lean a little bit back and let your mind wander. Only chance to bridge that is: Every night party in the scene and don’t come back home before 1 a. M. Well, I have no problems with that, because I am on vacation. BUT
If I had known that before, I certainly had thought a matter about my decision to book that hotel.
So finally I can say: Good hotel, good rooms, good service, good breakfast, friendly and polite staff, and of course very girl friendly.
This hotel is good for everybody, who uses the daytime to relax and to charge the batteries for the next night. Then party or hunting until 1 a. M. Or make other good things, where loud music is not bothering.
My personal decision is, that the next time, when I come back to LOS in November / December, I will not book this hotel again.
Enjoy your life. You only have this one.

Thanks for the help[/QUOTE]I have used them before and didn't have any problems. However, it seems as if prices have crept up on this websites in the last year or two. You might want to try [url]www.asiahotels.com[/url], [url]www.globebookings.com[/url] to name a couple. You can do a google search and compare the different website because prices can be different for hotels on each website.
