Pattaya Orders Removal of Illegal Hotel Extensions Following Community Complaints

In Pattaya’s Super Villa Village, residents successfully lodged complaints prompting city officials to inspect a seven-story building being converted into a hotel. The inspection found building violations—including encroachment onto public land and unauthorized additional floors—leading officials to issue orders: suspend work, prohibit occupancy, and demolish the offending sections. Specifically, the illegal frontage (about 5.6 meters) and rear extension (1.7 meters), plus the two extra unauthorized floors, must be removed unless proper permits are obtained within 30 days. To mitigate disruption, contractors must install protective sheeting, control dust, erect guardrails, and sign liability agreements with neighbors; the city will monitor progress over the next month.
