geisha Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Hi, I have friends coming over in March and they’d like a very good hotel with pool in Jomtien. They’ve rented a condo before for 2 months so know and like the area. Also, easy access to their son and Pattaya if needed. They do not want Pattaya as will be eating in their favorite Jomtien restaurants most night. And beach doesn’t interest them. I’m lost for ideas ? I think they’re hoping for 4/5 stars, and I don’t think there are any. Thanks. pS staying only 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko45k Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 Is Cosy Beach too far out? Rabbit Resort.. Jomtien Garden Resort One way to find them is to select 'Hotels' while viewing in Google Maps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pmbkk Posted December 21, 2022 Share Posted December 21, 2022 (+1) for Rabbit Resort - It's good - I believe it has it's own little stretch of private sandy beach with sun loungers. Haven't stayed there for a few yrs due to Covid. Royal Cliff is a step-up - beautiful pools, restaurants and a beach - but a little out of town. The honeymoon suites are not as expensive as they sound, but are great with bedroom/lounge/terrace overlooking the sea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
henry2109 Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Dear, there are over 100 4- or 5-star Hotels in Jomtien, Just go on a hotel booking webpage like AGODA or BOOKING and put in the filter what you are specifically looking for (swimmingpool, wifi etc.). Welcome to the 21st century. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Varee has decent rates at the moment not sure if the standard ticks all the boxes but worth a look. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dddave Posted December 22, 2022 Share Posted December 22, 2022 (edited) Friends stayed at THE GRAND JOMTIEN PALACE, at the corner of Beach Rd and Soi Wat Boon Kanchana and liked it very much. Lots of food nearby, right on songtao route. Rated 3 star. If they are interested, suggest they try to book direct and ask for front rooms looking out on the water.

Welcome to the 21st century. Oh dear, don’t you think I’ve already looked ? And I think you are slightly exaggerating. 100 ? In Jomtien ? I’ve lived there for the last 8 yrs so must be walking around blind ! I was asking 4/5 stars not your evaluation. Thankfully the other replies have been helpful . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome to the 21st century. I'd love to see a list of those 100 4 and 5-star hotels in Jomtien. When I searched Jomtien Beach for a booking in February, 200 choices came up. But, most were not hotels, at all. They were condo projects and pool villas. A number of the many condo projects, like Rivera Jomtien condo, were listed numerous times under different rental agencies. Riviera Jomtien condo had at least 6 different listings. One listing I saw, The Base condo, isn't even in Jomtien. When you knock all of those out, there are far fewer actual hotel listings. I think your list of 4 and 5-star Jomtien Beach hotels will not be too long, and certainly not 'over 100'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot about that one as I rarely walk up that road. Looks very nice, I think they’d like the Thai deco , I’m sure they know the restaurant too. Also, very well situated. I visited Royal Cliff a few years ago , but you have to rely on taxis there. Also can be very crowded with group tours. I’ve sent my friends Rabbit Resort address. They’ll know the area . Thanks.

Hi, unfortunately by the look of the reviews, I think the Grand Jomtien has gone the way of many Thai hotels, probably not helped by Covid closures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great pool, and best location in Jomtien. Might not be 4 stars by international standards, but was luxurious enough for me when I stayed there 4 years ago.

Loved it. My friends need a hotel with breakfast . By the way, do you know if the above is still having dust and noise problems due to the massive condo they’re building ? Is it finished ??

The structure of the condo is finished, just interior finishing going on now. There is a new project just starting nearby: groundwork for the Monorail projected to open in 5 years. As far as breakfast goes, several decent restaurants very close by: Wombat Kiwi Bar and restaurant, an excellent Dutch place next to that. Both have great breakfast options. Both just at the end of soi 9. I live in Jomtien beach Condo, overlooking that area. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
