bbi1 Posted October 23, 2022 Share Posted October 23, 2022 Anyone have hotel suggestions in the 500 - 1,000 baht per night range within walking distance to Bangla Rd? Seeing if any of you guys have any hidden gems before I go through pages of searching on Agoda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Lowf Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I visited Coconut Village Resort at the southern end of the beach last and was very impressed with the room and pool area at B500 - a bit of a walk to Bangla but you can stroll along the beachfront, which is pleasant. I've done a few overnights at U Sabai Living on Soi Banzaan and found it very convenient and great value, but it is a bit noisy unless you can get a room at the back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparktrader Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Best thing to do is use filters 1 budget 2 ratings On both Agoda and Booking.com cause prices vary. (I think all major sites owned by same group now but prices vary as they are run separately) Then click on map. Thats what i do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know something ???? - why not just tell him which what you found that fits his requirement ? 1 hour ago, Sparktrader said: I found one not telling. Booking.com or agoda.com.

So your only aim when replying to this thread was to tell the Op you have some information which could help him, but, you don’t want to give out the information... Given your comments it would present a ‘win-win’ to provide us with the hotel info so we all know to avoid it and not run the risk of potentially running into you !!!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check the url in his pic then you can see the name of the resort he's talking about. I don't know why he feels the need to be so cryptic; maybe he's just bored?

You havent helped the OP one bit. Agoda and Booking.com have different deals. You just whinged and claimed the deals where were the same as the booking sites merged 5 to 8 years ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I checked the rates of a place I know of, but they fell outside of his price bracket...(double - I thought the rates may be cheaper post Covid). Then I saw your response.... “I know a place but I’m in a particularly facetious mood and want to tell you that you, a perfect stranger, I don’t want to tell you” !!!! (yes, paraphrase). So.. I didn’t respond to the Op because I can’t help him... ..... but I saw your special example of flookwittery and figured no one posts something this ayholish without expecting a response.... I’m happy to oblige !!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise late at night or early morning is of no concern to me. This is a side trip for a few days and I plan on hitting up the nightclubs until the early hours of the morning anyway.

Walking distance is very subjective - when I started coming to Patong I used to say on Nanai near the junction with Nanai 2 and thought nothing of walking to the beach during the day and then back to Bangla for the evening - sadly, the legs would no longer handle it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't want pretend credibility with people I don't know on the internet. Maybe you do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
