Mighty Mouse Posted August 16, 2007 Share Posted August 16, 2007 For hotels, click here and take your pick. There is a 'left baggage' room at the airport but be careful. A growing number of people have reported thefts from their suitcases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allane Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 The Day-Night Hotel on Soi Day-Night, South Road, goes at about that rate. They also have Day-Night 2 nearby. If you cannot find contact details yourself, repost here. I will be in Pattaya on the weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theseveredhead Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 for years id thought about making a directory -but charge a bit for user fee as it would be lots of hassle collecting photos, etc... also have a service to make reservations to the small places - but thought about a bunch of small charges going thru my bank. i dontthink anyone would pay in the end day night htl - i would not recommend.

Weho Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Agree that the list is very impressive, and complete... But does anyone know what the difference in rate between the 100 baht rooms per night, and the 200 baht rooms per night is at the Bar Norge, on Soi Yamato? In other words, what do you get for the extra 100 baht? And is breakfast included in the rate? Does the air/con work o.k.? Is there a concierge? Do they have any frequent stayer promotions, like for upgrades and free stuff? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cali4995 Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 100 baht might be the "short-time" price WeHo. Seriously, most of those advertised prices are so out-of -date, the actual figure is twice the price on the sign. And then there are the places that have separate prices for Thais and foreigners. We really need a local consumer advocate to evaluate some of these restaurants, customer service at these local businesses, the whole range because there is no standard to anything here. Someone who is fearless, unafraid, laughs in the face of danger. WeHo? Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weho Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Hey Weho....Good to see your input agin, you have been missed... well gawd bless you for noticing! and to the prior poster, I don't think the 100 baht rate is the hourly rate. that would taint the place's pristine reputation to suggest they might even have so-called "hourly rates". In fact, I believe it is the weekly rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minimum is now about 700, and the Babylon Suites are in the 3,000 and up category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lotus eater Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 palm gardens top of 2nd road near the dolphin round about 5 mins from the bus station and last time i was there it was 550,a night That's certainly out of date. It's now over 800 - may even be higher in high season - but the rooms have been renovated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mighty Mouse Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 (edited) Some of those rates were out-of-date 10 years ago. When was this web-site last updated? Many hotels increase their rates every two or three years, so any compiled list of hotels will soon become outdated unless the list is updated on a regular basis. The list of hotels that I posted is now a few years old, but the contact information contained in the list should still be current. It only takes an email or telephone enquiry to ascertain todays room rates. Click here for another list of hotels....but these prices may also be out of date.

Not criticising you MM, but the hotel list (first one that you linked to) was supposedly updated in mid-2007. Therefore people would assume that they could go to such-and-such and so-and-so within their budget. When they contact the hotels and find the rates are 50% up on the quotes, they could very well dismiss Pattaya and/or Thailand from their plans - go to Lombok or Langkawi instead. Publishing inaccurate guides does not help the tourist trade and these web-sites should check their entries (or ask for hotel confiirmation) more frequently and more carefully.

Humphrey Bear Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 Original Poster You also asked about places to visit in the Eastern Seabord area. This has been done to death on this forum and if you check back a few pages you will find enough suggestions to last a year - depending on your tastes and whether you are on your own or with family.

What you state may well be true of some of the hotels on that first list but the hotel that I regularly stay at is actually a lot cheaper than the price listed. The neighboring hotels are also a lot cheaper than the prices listed. (I am referring mainly to low season prices but the high season prices are also well within the price range mentioned.) Taking all into account, I would regard any comprehensive list of hotels, albeit slightly out of date regarding prices, as more advantageous than no list at all.
