[webfact]

 

Pattaya —A fire broke out at a luxury hotel’s storage room in Pattaya around 10 AM on Thursday, March 28th, 2024.

 

Crews of firefighters rushed to the hotel, whose name was withheld in light of the ongoing investigation, located on Soi Pattaya 10, Nongprue, Banglamung, Chonburi.

 

On their arrival, the team was met with thick smoke billowing from the fire source in the room where the hotel used to store maintenance equipment. Hotel guests already escaped the building, and luckily, there were no reports of injuries.

 

The firefighters blocked onlookers from entering the area and began spraying water into the fire. Within minutes, the flames were quelled but not before it destroyed the whole room along with the equipment.
