Kringle Posted October 25, 2004 Share Posted October 25, 2004 Got a friend coming over for a while and he wants to go to Pattaya for 4-5 days and then to Chiang Mai for about the same period. Can you recommend a decent place (a/c,clean and private bath) that he could get for say, 6-1500 baht per night? I know it's a broad range but I would apreciate any help. He wants to check out the nightlife and also to see what's on offer as far as places to buy to retire to. If you could recommend any agents or hotels, it would be great. Thanks to all, Kringle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kringle Posted October 25, 2004 Author Share Posted October 25, 2004 Davethailand, Thanks for that and in my haste I didn't look in the pinned section of each location. It will help me and my friend if anyone can help because I'm not familier with Pattaya and not a lot of Chiang Mai. I know the areas around Sukhumvit because I almost lived there when I got here over 2 years ago. I trust your opinion and am happy to receive any help from you guys. I printed the pinned places in the different locals that are listed on the forum by George and will forward this on to my friend. Thanks again for any and all help.

Kringle Posted October 26, 2004 Author Share Posted October 26, 2004 Thanks for the suggestions as far as places to stay. Always can depend on TV to get the answers. Thaicoon, He's going to be here from the 4th - 22nd. Wants to spend 5 days Bangers then 4-5 Pattaya another 4-5 Chiang Mai and then the rest in Bangers. Got another friend coming on the 16th and will see him after meeting with you on the 15th. Should be a nice visit with some friends in town. Thanks again for bringing the parts as it really does help. Cheers, Kringle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaiflyer1 Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 soi 15 ( i think) beach rd, there's a couple of good places, sandy springs, dynasty inn. Its Soi 13 Dave..........Kringle i/d go along with Sandy Springs.......new place, centrally located but not too 'full' on like the hotels located on Soi 7 or 8. Also handy for all the fast food joints...........if you come down the beach road (one way system) Soi 13 is 2nd on the left after you have passed Mikes Dept store (cant miss it) ....Soi 13 is a one way (as is the next soi) so you/ll have to go 2 Soi's passed and go round the block. ....

thaiflyer1 Posted October 26, 2004 Share Posted October 26, 2004 Stayed at AA hotel which is realy nice with swimming pool overlooking the beach about 650 a night, If you ever want to push the boat out the AA has a penthouse available for 2000 baht/night (price 1yr ago) which covers half the top of the hotel...........has its own private stairway up to it and private terrace looking directly over the bay.

Kringle Posted October 28, 2004 Author Share Posted October 28, 2004 Just got more word back from my friend and he has decided that South Pattaya seems to be the most happening area. What he wants is to be able to walk to any of the nightspots from his hotel and be able to walk (or stagger) back when he's done for the night. I emailed him this thread but I'm finding it hard to find the hotels you guys suggested (Sandys,AA and others) they don't seem to be on the hotel list supplied in this forum. He wants to book before he comes so he knows he has a place. I wish I knew more of the area but I haven't been there yet. Thanks for the help, Kringle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kringle Posted October 29, 2004 Author Share Posted October 29, 2004 Britmaverick, I'm going to try and make that one with my Hawaii friend but I have another friend coming in on the 15th and yet another the 16th from England so don't know yet. Might be easier for me to make the Bangkok one if there's any money left from partying with these guys. That is of course the misses doesn't kill me. Have fun and thanks again to all, Kringle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
