Hua Hin hotel recommendations

[banglay]

Hi All,

I'm thinking of visiting Hua Hin next week  and could use your advice. I'm looking for a hotel with safe parking for my motorbike and that's within easy walking distance (a couple of minutes) of Soi Bintabaht. Also, I'm curious about the best bars and restaurants to check out. It's been 15 years since my last visit, so I'm completely out of the loop! Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers in advance

We stayed at the Fresh Inn....nothing fancy, being a cheap charlie, but would book it again. 

 

Just round the corner from Soi Bintabaht

Yes....it locks as well....little patch of land at the back of the hotel. Tight for cars, but perfect for a bike.

 

Just to say nothing fancy, but excellent location. Walk to the beach, nice little street front dining area.

 

I liked it.....for what it was.

I always liked the breakfast in Murphy's Irish Pub, and then we used to drink all afternoon at a restaurant on the pier near Murphy's Irish bar.

This photo of the (Sea Side) restaurant overlooking a small fishing harbour (just around the corner of the beach from the Hilton).

Evenings were spent at BintaBaht for the early happy hours, then a walk to the many small bars in Soi 80.

We usually stay at the JW Marriott soi 2 in Bangkok.........so the Fresh Hotel was a welcome break for my wallet...5555

Sleepy Hua Hin is far to overpriced, often more expensive then Bangkok and the falang is mainly seen as the Golden Goose. The friendly and quality Thailand would be more upwards to the North part of the country, IMHO.

I have stayed at five hotels in Hua Hin. The Sofitel (now the Centara), the Hilton, the Dusit, and two cheapie places. All seemed safe and were okay. The Centara would be my first choice, but's it's a bit pricey.

We like Kundala but not cheap.

OP, do you have a desired general range of price per night you're looking for? That would help narrow the options some.

Sirin hotel / Parking in the front of the reception / 50m from Irish Pub and Soi Binthabat / 75m from the beach

Cheap / Nice room /  Nice service / Small pool / Choose balcony over the pool better

No Lift / Breakfast so so but I don't care, I take the Irish ABF outside.

Price around 1,000 / sometimes cheaper to call them then websites.

Phil.

 A bit off topic. I stayed in guesthouses in this area many years ago.  The strange thing was that the toilet flushed directly into the sea. Still the same?

Same as in the UK.

As opposed to indirectly into the sea?

Yep, but at the guesthouse it's more obvious. And it's not that far to the Hilton.

City Beach Hotel. Opposite Father Teds. Large car park with 24 hour security.

 

A couple of minutes walk to Bintabaht and the beach.

I stayed in Hua Hin two winter seasons through but in a nice condo. I often ate at the All In cafe /shop which was great. Wondering if it was still there.  There was another very well known restaurant ( famous cook) on the other side of the railway track, fantastic.

I stopped going to Hua Hin as was fed up in getting ripped off in many restaurants where they openly like to overcharge foreigners. Many restaurants and shops charge foreigners similar prices then in Europe,  so no point. It's not being a Cheap Charlie...it's just about not being stupid and getting cheated.
