Pattaya Hotels

Fellas,

Give this place a try, instead of always wanting to be in the heart of the rat race!

Central Pattaya, Near the Big C, plenty of Beer Bars, 2 or 3 Soapies to try.. and not so congested but still in the action of things including a Soi from Soi 6, and in between Beach Rd. and 2nd Rd. minutes to Walking St... and at the same time might pick up something on the Songthaw. Also minutes to North Pattaya Naklua, and check out what Wanderlust reported in that area... more Beer Bars!

Try the Best Beach Villa, 362, M.9. Soi 5 Nongprue Banglamung, Chon Buri

Will be headed back to Pattaya at the end of October, beginning of November. I usually stay at White House on Soi 13 but am interested in the new Holiday Inn (Priority Club Gold Member).

I'll be spending most of the time with my regular but I'll have a few days solo.

Does anyone have any intel on if Holiday Inn is GF or not?

Feel free to PM with the info. Thanks.

Is GF ?

Mastorr

Mastorr,

Yes,

Big Daddy 1906,

The holiday Inn, on a visual look doesn't look like it will be finish by the time you indicated. But of course I don't know what they are promoting?

This hotel is tall, right next to the Amari, near the top of Beach Rd. One would think it wouldn't be girlfriendly.. Although it is a Holiday Inn, it looks HI-SO to me.

Any of you guys used this hotel lately? I was there about 6 years ago. Location and price was the best. Located at Soi 13 and the Beach Road, nice
view and a small pool in the 3RD floor. Please let me know how is the current condition.
Have a great one!

Razor, your probably thinking of the AA Hotel at about 13 Beachroad. Right on the corner at Beach Road as you said. It has a pool on the street side 3rd or 4th floor.
I haven't stayed there either for about 2 years but stayed there alot before that. The location is perfect as you say. Anyways as far as I know there has been no renovations or upgrades and should look like it has "aged" 6 years since you have been there! It is still a deal though for the location at 800-950 baht per night. Good security safes and honest staff.
Boukow near Soi Diana Inn is the place for good rooms at decent prices now but of course is much farther from walking street. Large clean rooms about 650 with A/C on both corners of Boukow at Soi Diana. Good action in that part of town though also.

Wanderlust,
Exactly and it was jewerly shop also. When I was there, I already saw that some of the rooms need urgent renovation, well I think is time to look
somewhere else in my next time. I have in mind a few, but still working on.
Thanks for you comments.

Hi Razor, PM me if you are able and tell me what area you want to stay in and the length of stay. I can hook you up as I know they types of hotel your looking for. If your not able to pm me just leave the info here, altho you'll get better info with a PM.
Here is a jewel I ran into last year. BUT you must LOVE Hip Hop music to stay here and not mind staying awake till 3 AM! The location is directly across the street from the Famous Lucifer's mid walking street. The name is "Walking Street Guest House" Phone number 0811504628. Free Wi-fi,Hot water, InRoom Safe, King Bed, Refrigerator, 32" Flat screen!! Only 600 baht pernight. All this and clean well appointed rooms. A VERY DO-ABLE CRAWL HOME as well!!! A Downside: Loud at night, Rooms small. Worth a try at any rate.

Just went by the new Holiday Inn top of Beach Road. They are open for business as of a few days ago. As was mentioned it is so very Hi-So looking. Don't know either if it is Gfriendly but sure looks like a nice sleep. What the hey, email them and ask??? I'm sure the folks 'round these parts will have no problem understanding the question.

I have a friend who is renting a Condo 2 Blocks from Walking Street on Pattaya South (Also called Pattaya Tai). They can be rented for 1 month OR longer. In the past it was very difficult to find properties willing to rent for short term but the slow economy and fewer tourists has changed that.
Here is the info. First off the building is located directly east of the Wat on Pattaya South. It is the tall white building (maybe 20 floors). It is a vintage building to be sure but I have been inside and it isn't totally lame. There are some rooms available with a really nice view of the bay and downtown. They typically go for about 12-15 thousand baht per month. Non-view rooms go for 6-9 thousand. You can contact the office or the two shops onsite next to the entrance. There are fliers on the shop windows listing the rooms available and prices. The best thing about this place of course is location, location, location and the ability to short term. Rooms have a kitchen, balcony, bathroom, bedroom and a livingroom. Count 'em, 4 rooms folks! 2 minute stumble back home from beachRoad and walking street.
As said before this is not a new building or particularly nice. About the same quality as AA hotel mentioned a few posts back. Only cheap, easy and located well.

Guys, don't discount this idea of picking a bigger room and settling in for a month or more. It really is quite peaceful, almost like all the comforts of home in the middle of mardi gra. Certainly worth a try. See my post from last week for locations on the North End of town. An infinately nicer choice of properties for a month or more.

I'll be arriving in Pattaya in early November, and much to my annoyance I see that the cost of my usual hotel, Baron's Beach (Soi 9), jumps from 1080 Bht to 1800 Bht on the 1st November. So I'm looking for a different bedroom...

But: I have one particular requirement that I can't usually find out from hotel details, and that is a spacious walk-in shower! I just can't stand showering in a bath with a hose and a shower curtain, quite apart from the opportunities for fun in the shower ...

Can anyone recommend a clean, smart (girl-friendly) hotel in central Pattaya with a walk-in shower? I'm sure there are plenty of them... Around 1000 Bht in November? Wi-fi a bonus, and I don't care about breakfast.

It seems that it will be my stay in Pattaya since it is close to the action price will be 2830 THB for Deluex Terrace facing pool and 2130 THB for Garden zone i thinkg i will settle 2130 THB Breakfast included. for the period from 22/12/2009 till 29/12/2009

Aerca lodge will be in the sum of 1990 Thb and they will charge complusory gala dinner 2000 THb and 2000thb for airport pick up !!! absurd and Nova Platinum is far from action.

Airport pickup at 1600.THB including Toll way fee dont know but in 2006 it was cheaper i think it was 1200 THB for pickup.

I think i can take a taxi from Airport to pattaya cheaper than 1600.

Any ideas fellow mongers.

Mouse1,

Baron is overated and overcharged in my opinion and the staff doesn't seem very friendly especially the car park attendant.

If you are thinking about Central Pattaya, go down to my post date 9/19 Best Villa. Also give Mikes Orchid Resort on Soi 4 in Central

LBM[/QUOTE]At 1080 Bht I thought it was a real bargain. Don't know about the car park attendant but one of the receptionists was particularly friendly :)

But thanks for the suggestions anyway.
