I have travelled to Pattaya many times and have always been delighted with the welcome and friendliness of the Thai people. This was my fourth trip to Pattaya and I can’t see me wanting to go anywhere else in the future. Pattaya has something for everybody from good beaches and watersports to world class hotels and simple rooms. It has everything you could want. There is so much nightlife and restaurants to explore it would take years to discover it all and places change so quickly I don’t think you could ever explore it all.

Of course Pattaya is not for everyone but you just have to visit to find out for yourself if its for you. Room was perfectly clean, had a great view. I have found Pattaya to be one of the safest places to travel and walk around after dark but be careful walking on the roads and keep your wits about you re. We stayed for a week and it was incredibly comfortable. Pool was clean and relaxing. Located very centrally to everything, walking street, beach, and malls. Breakfast buffet has a very large selection of options, something for everyone. Staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. Hotel board dinners were also very good, 3 course meals were delicious. 7-11 in lobby was very convenient. The property is right in the heart of the action but quite. The rooms are spotless. The beach is a two minute walk away. Everything you need is on the door. Bar under the property is cheap. Great location and is near beach road. I booked for a week then extended twice. Access to alot of amenities. Right on Beach road, beach is just across the street. Classical Thai hotel of olders style.
