Pattaya Hotels

Which hotels in Pattaya allow 18 and 19 year old guests for overnight stay? My hotel near to walking street bay walk residence allows only 20 and older. Any suggestions please?

No hotel will advertise they allow 18-19 yo. It really depends on several factors like the guard on duty and / or the reception staff. I've never had a girl refused before and plenty have been 18-19 yo. Some got their ID taken, others just walked through without issue. My friend on the other hand has had 3 girls not allowed into the same hotels due to them being 19.

It's the luck of the draw and you'll just have to play your cards.

I've never had any problems with the hotels in Soi 13, like Dynasty Inn, The Whitehouse Condotel, and Sandy Spring.

Hello. I expected and I have read all hotels are girl friendly in Pattaya, nevertheless for some hotels I read that a fee was charged. What about Marriott Courtyard? I have points to spend and make my stay free there. Thanks!

Do you mean the Discovery Beach Hotel? And did you book a room for two persons?

Yes, that's discovery and booked for 2 person.

Please suggest me any suitable budget friendly condo for a week or so near LK Metro or Tree Town area.

I observed one interesting banner, The Fxxk Inn opposite to BarCode bar at LK Metro. Any Idea about this place?

Thanks.

Not a hotel but a 2 tower high rise rental condo. I like "The Base" with all it's amenities. I recommend.

Stayed in a place named the beach just beside the Soi 6. They have 2 towers. Stayed in 1 and for breakfast had to go to another one anyway. The main drawback is they charge 1 K baht to get a girl in which pissed me off.

We live in the age of the internet. It's very easy to find out such things before booking.

The other day I was staying in my usual place in Bangkok near Nana. They are girlfriendly, I could take girls up to my room without paying anything.

But when I showed up with a 19 year-old, they explained that they would only except her if I registered her as my second permanent guest in my room. And if I did that, I would for the rest of my stay have to pay a 500 baht joiner fee for every new girl I wanted to take up to my room.

The main drawback is they charge 1 K baht to get a girl in which pissed me off. I was told by many that all the hotels in Pattaya allows WGs. And when at the middle of the night I was approaching towards the elevator through the lobby, the girl at the counter mention "Sir, you have to pay 1 K baht to bring a girl in" which pissed me off but couldn't argue as me and my girl both were waiting to bang each others brain out. Therefore threw the 1 K at the counter and took her to the room and then rest was so good that I didn't mind to pay 1 K at the lobby. But, this place is really not mongering friendly. A big no to this place.

It's the literal law.

Thai age of majority is 20 yrs, meaning u20s need parental permission to be at that hotel for whatever reasons they might be there. Some hotels don't care, others do.

I did a Google AI search on "age of majority Thailand" and the top level result supports exactly what you wrote. I dug a little deeper regarding parental consent and found that there are exceptions, for example "Strictly personal acts: Acts of a highly personal nature are exempt from the consent requirement." It also states "The age of consent for sexual activity is 15, but a person between the ages of 15 and 18 is still considered a minor."

If you believe google AI, it is easy to see why some hotels enforce the 20 year minimum and others do not.

Stayed for few nights at amber pattaya and not sure I will stay here again. First turn off came when I found they don't allow joiner below 20 yrs! This was confirmed by my lady of the night who just turned 20 this month. She was denied entry few months back and had to bypass reception using the parking lift. Secondly, the housekeeping is one of the slowest I have seen so far. Seems the staff is very uninterested in their job.

The 20 yr restriction rule worries me. Is it a norm for pattaya hotels to deny entry below 20 yrs? I had brought 19 yr chicks in another hotel I stayed (blackwoods) but they didn't bother us.

LOCATION: The ultimate walkable lodging in the heart of Pattaya. Next door to Central Festival Mall. Across the street from the Myth Night beer bar complex, connecting to Soi Made in Thailand, then Soi Buakhao connecting to Tree Town, Soi LK Metro and Soi Boomerang. Condo grounds connect to Beach Road and the baht bus to Walking Street. Main entrance is on Second Road and the baht bus to Soi 6. Moto-taxi stand right outside the front door.

LOGISTICS: Several shops in the VT-6 lobby, including laundries, massage and a convenience store. There is even a small cafe. Next door at Central Festival there is a big food court and an upscale grocery store. Within 500 meters you'll find every conceivable business, shop or store -- including a money exchange, 7-11, barber, seamstress and cinema. Plus the Pattaya Night Bazaar.

LODGING: Several agents handle short term condo rentals. Some of the units are basic and cheap; some are lavish and expensive. Most are in between.

Obviously, I'm a VT-6 fan. But not all of the gents here share my enthusiasm. If they want to weigh in, that would be great.

Downsides:

Endless waiting for and in the elevators (where you stand with 9 other guests like sardines).

Older building. Huge renovation backlog. You're never far away from the nearest condo that's getting (jack-) hammered and grinded.

Hello. First post here. Just came from Pattaya and really enjoyed it, will write my report shortly. I thought I will start by posting first about my hotel, Flipper House. Most posts about it are a bit outdated.

I really liked Flipper House and would strongly recommend it. Location is excellent; it's in Soi 7, close to the beach, walking distance to Tree town and Soi 6, baht bus short ride to walking street, and very quiet. Rooms are spacious, clean, with a safety box; only problem is keys are old style and hard to carry. Wifi very fast and doesn't drop. Breakfast buffet is excellent with a large choice and an egg station. Nice pool at the roof with a view of the sea. Safe and Guest friendly; girl leaving her ID at security desk and giving the room number, collecting it back after checking with the guest. Large car park that I did not use. And most importantly, price is unbeatable. They had a promotion at the time due to low season; I got my double bed room for 860 baht a night including breakfast from Booking, that's 20 British pound / night.

This will be my go-to hotel when I visit again.
