This probably could have been anywhere but it happened at the Baboona Hotel on Beach Road, see story at [url]http://www.pattayacitynews.net/news_24_01_51_3.html[/url]
can i just recomend a good place to stay in pattaya-rhetorical, because i will.
i'll not post a link because that's not allowed , but the place is called the rockhouse on soi lk metro-do a search.
it only has 3 rooms, but they are huge, and it is a pub with a lot of nice girls, as per my report. being small, and with a permenant cashier, and no duplicate keys for the staff, and with a bolted down room safe, the place is very secure. nobody goes in through the back door to the accomodation without the cashiers knowing.
lk metro btw is a buzzing place. it would be hard to justify going to walking street staying here. in fact it is so good that [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord900][CodeWord900][/url] is 20 metres away, and the hell club another 30, both of which i swore i'd visit, but never did. there's a gogo (champagne) 3 doors down, restaurants coming out of your arse, and beer bars, internet cafes, visa places, laundries, everything within a small stagger. i highly recommend the accommodation and the area.

[QUOTE=Gaolei]I just checked the Estiny website and found they have quite a few hotels now, and one resort. The addresses are mostly in the soi 8 area, one on soi 10 and a resort with an address that I don't recognise. Anyone been to the new hotel on soi 10 and the resort? I will be heading to Pattaya for the weekend and would like to stay at one of their new hotels if I can get a good report here. Thanks! [/QUOTE]I always stay at estiny residence soi 10. It is just over 1000b, I like the area. Walking distance to beachroad, 2nd road, there is some bars directly across from it. I find the quality if bg's on soi 10 not so great. For me thats ok because I don't like to take girls close to my hotel, I find that walking by a bg (that you already had) everday day or 2-3times a day with a new trophy sometimes creates to much drama I don't need. So I tend to walk over to soi 7or8 or head to walking to do my fishing.
But back to the hotel, the rooms are clean, most have bath tubs, have internet acsess aswell. The pool on the 3rd floor is nice aswell.
Breakfast buffet isn't so shit hot, but its included.
For me the only negative about the hotel is they don't have safes in the room, there safes are at receptition and you can only acces them until 10pm (or somthin). I don't understand why some hotels put there safes at reception, I hate that, its such a pain in the ass.
But for me the 1 negatitive is acceptable as I like the area and the people, id recomend the hotel, in fact I'll be there again on feb 20
P.S. The burger stand on the corner of soi 10 and 2nd road are excellent, the woman there is great and has become a good freind try her burgers, shes a hard worker and puts any money she makes to good use.
Got quoted 1390 bht for Sandy Springs in late April, basic room w/ balcony. They want 1700 for the taxi from airport. (Can't help but think if I just showed up at that time of year I might get the room cheaper.) Anyway, does anyone know how loud this hotel is for sleeping? It's between here and Dynasty Inn but S Spring wants a credit card # to reserve which means if it's too loud and I have to move they may try to keep some $.

The standard-rooms are generaly quiet, except there are constructionworks on Soi 13. At my last visit there in October I had no problems. For the transportation to Pattaya you can take a bus. Its around 100 Baht. A taxi will be 1200 to 1500 Baht.
Sandy Springs is very quiet, excellent rooms, best value I have forund in Pattaya at 1250 b, no breakfast but as you know the Lek is just 1/2 a block away. That was a balcony room on the 3rd floor. I would highly reccommend Sandy Springs in that price range. They only ask for a credit card for the first nite with us. Things are starting to slow down in Pattaya, just left last week so you might even get a better deal than I did.

I found Sandy Spring to be an excellent hotel. The rooms were perfect and quiet. No problems with sleep, the location is good, the pool is very nice, and Guest Friendly
They often charge for internet. That's the only thing I don't like.
I also found the new Eastiny Residence to be a good value. The only problem was the pool. Something was wrong with it and it took 2 days to get fixed. The water turned a little bad, but they did not warn guests. I asked them to put up a sign and they just said, sorry. But people could get sick I said. Sorry! Thailand!
Hi,
Does anybody have some information about some good deal hotel in Jomtien, preferable with balcony with sea view. I will be there for some days late next week.

Sorry I haven't stayed in Jomtien as nearly all the action is in Pattaya.

Can you help me to find a hotel in Pattaya located in the rectangualar area of Pattaya Klang road, Beach road, South road and 2:nd road that is 100 % perfect for me? I have been RTFF and looking around a little bit myself in the area, but this far no luck.
These are my preferences: Maximum about 1 500 baht per night now in March, silent surroundings, non-smoking-room, air-condition, room with the floor made of either tiles/marble/plastic material, safe deposit in the room, American breakfast buffet, girlfriendly, both hot and cold water in the room, refrigerator, and a swimming pool at least 25 meter long for my daily exercise.
Grateful for help,
Tom Ling
Tomling,
The All Seasons may fit into your description. It's not directly in your described square, but very very close to it, situated in the corner of Pattaya Klang Rd / Second Rd.
It's part of the Accor Group, not fancy but sufficient, newly renovated, clean rooms, nice enough bath. Only deluxe rooms have an in-room safe, but there are still the safes at reception available 24/7. Breakfast buffet is OK but gets old after a few days, not much variation.
Pool and sun-deck are on the 5th (?) floor. Not big but nice.
