Southsealad Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 My Grandson is coming to Thailand 30 September to 21 October and wants to stay in Pattaya. I have no knowledge of Pattaya and room costs and would welcome some help in finding a budget room for him. I saw a video on You Tube this week where a Brit said he had found a room in Katsiree House for £6 a night, but when I looked at the website it was about 800 baht nightly. I am unable to give him the money for a room because my pension just about covers my own living costs, my state pension having been frozen since 2010. I would appreciate any guidance on rooms with in the range of £6 to £9 per night that I could pass on to him. Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you search on Booking.com, you can find prices for the total time from 7 500 - 10 000 baht. That should be considered very cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Your grandson shouldn't be coming to Pattaya if he can't afford a half decent room for himself. Just give him 300 Baht a day beer money and let him learn how to Google. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you Look at short term monthly: https://www.renthub.in.th/en/short-term-rental/pattaya Daily at those prices will likely be dire. 265 to 395 baht per day. You can find short term for as little as 4,000 baht monthly. Electricity will be charged separately and as such, a deposit will be taken. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenslegs Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Maybe he should be looking for hostel accommodation (shared rooms). Google hostels in Pattaya. Here's an example for 174 baht per night (+taxes) includes breakfast. https://www.agoda.com/happiness-community-wake-bake-hostel/hotel/pattaya-th.html?finalPriceView=1&isShowMobileAppPrice=false&cid=1833981&numberOfBedrooms=&familyMode=false&adults=1&children=0&rooms=1&maxRooms=0&checkIn=2024-09-30&isCalendarCallout=false&childAges=&numberOfGuest=0&missingChildAges=false&travellerType=-1&showReviewSubmissionEntry=false¤cyCode=THB&isFreeOccSearch=false&tspTypes=6%2C16%2C-1&los=21&searchrequestid=8f429d56-f00e-4e6f-abd7-93928de6c126&ds=TlhXZ%2FkjOln9QkNt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A hostel for 21 days is not a bright idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GypsyT Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 I'd advice not to lock in long rental until he checks out the area, place, security and noise. Hostels are worst, you never can leave anything there! Or maybe only if they have steel lockers and you got your own lock. If he uses agents he should only pay for couple of night and then, if he likes it, make a deal direct with the owner. I've saved thousands on USD doing that during years. It works 90% time if the owner is Thai. Later if/when I return I get same deal directly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacko45k Posted September 21 Share Posted September 21 Look on Soi Honey at 'InTown' or similar. Failing that, the girls know the cheap rooms! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
