Pattaya Hotels

I'll be going over in late october and want to try to catch some of the baseball playoffs, does anyone know what hotels (moderate price) have fairly expanded cable?

Any one know which hotels (moderate price) offer fairly expanded stations, I want to try to catch some baseball playoffs while over there.

Thanks

Well just got back from two weeks in Pattaya, I checked out the new Pattaya Bay. I was considering it because of their promotional rate thru the end of the month, can't beat 700 baht a night for a new hotel. But I did not like the location, there is too much construction back there and my gf was scared to walk back down the road there after dark. The rooms were very plain and they did not have a bathtub, yes we are spoiled. Hehe. It maybe nicer next year when more of the construction is completed. We decided to go back to Soi 13, we like the location and proximety to Royal Garden Mall.

Take care and be safe.

Hi Every One,

Again in Heaven, Last trips, I had stayed at Dynasty Inn, Soi 13. Good hotel, a little pricy. Now I mention the "NEW DAY NIGHT HOTEL", reasonable price on South Pattaya, . Has any body stayed there before? Any comments? Girl friendly?

Thanx friends

Somebody posted that view talay villas are a long walk to the baht bus. I see there's also view talay residence. Anyone know if that's a closer walk? Anyone stayed there?

Hi,

I haven't been to Pattaya for a while, so I would need some update of nice and guest friendly hotels in Pattaya. Basically I would prefer the following:

- nice 3 or better 4 star hotel
- nice and spacious rooms, AC is a must, also clean bathrooms
- close to the action (so using one of the bath buses gets you there)
- nice pool area
- no joiner fee or any other bs like this.

I don't care so much if it is 100 bath more or less expensive, but just want some nice and relaxed time there. I read something about the new Mercure hotel, but don't know if they are gf friendly or not.

Any recommendation is highly welcome.

Thanks - and I will post a nice review after my return. Also if someone else is in Pattaya around the last week in November/first week in December, maybe we can meet up.

Need some help here. Cannot find much info on tim boutique, and its about the sane price as the Sabai Lodge. I stayed at the Areca Lodge last time thought it was great, but heavy construction there now. I'm getting there the 30th of Oct. I need some info if its out there.

Now that I've done some researching. Not sure if the Sabai Resort or the Sabai Lodge is a better spot? Any comments welcome.

I prefer the Sabai Inn to the Sabai Lodge, as I feel that it is much better value. I have not stayed at Sabai Resort. Sabai Lodge has nice swimming pools, which Sabai Inn lacks, but you are totally welcome to use the pools at Sabai Lodge, and it is a walk of maybe 30-40 meters across the street from the Sabai Inn's front door to the main pool of the Sabai Lodge.

IMHO, the rooms at Sabai Inn are as good as the ones at Sabai Lodge which go for 50-75% more, and far superior to the cheapest rooms at Sabai Lodge.

One option for you is a new hotel, the [URL="http://pattayabayresort.com"]Pattaya Bay Resort[/URL]. Room prices range between 1,400 baht and 3,300 baht. For 3,300 baht/night, you can get the "Presidental Suite," which is great value for money (check out the description on the Web site). It has a roof-top pool. I haven't stayed there, but a friend has and he said it was fantastic. Good location, too.

Any idea if Pattaya Bay resort is girl friendly or is it more a family kind of hotel?

Any response would be appreciated.

I have heard that Pattaya Bay is girl friendly from reports off of Pattaya forum sites.

Last year I stayed at the Day Night 2 which is the monthly apartment style lodgings owned by the New Day Night. It's located just a block away from the New Day Night and you have full access to their pool. I stayed with a friend and for both of us in an air conditioned room it was only 5500 baht per month. With one person I believe it's 4500 baht per month. Very girl friendly with an added bonus. Alot of the rooms are rented by girls who work on walking street and they were more than happy to come "visit". Met more girls in the building then I met in the bars. The bar downstairs has bar shots for 30 baht and pitchers of Chang for 100 baht. Not a 5 star by far but a nice clean place and the rooms are huge. Just thought I'd add this as most places I see on here are alot more expensive and thought it might help people like myself who travel on a limited income. I'm going back in January and styaing 3 months.

P.S. It's in a very gay friendly area so if you are homophobic might not be the best place for you.

This is from the Pattaya Bay Resort's Web site (FAQs):

"Q: Are you joiner/over-night guest friendly?
A: Yes, all joiners or over-night guests are always welcome with a smile by all of our staff.

Q: Is there an additional charge for joiners/over-night guests?
A: All of our rates quoted are for 1 or 2 persons sharing the same room. Therefore, if a single guest brings back a joiner, there is no additional fee. If you have a third person in the room, there is an additional charge of 500 baht per person, per night."

People who've stayed there confirm that is the case.

Does anyone have any good tips on these types of hotels that are definitely girl friendly (including 2-girls at a time) and within walking distance of all the action on Pattaya Beach/walking street? Not a fan of snooty places, just something with a memorable Thai-style, clean and 5-starish. Budget would be USD 100 to 175 per night. Thanks in advance!
