torrenova Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I know I live there but I need to stay somewhere, either condo or hotel for a week as the outlaws are going to take over the condo and the house has gone back to the owner. I also know that I know lots of places but I haven't had to actually choose one for myself in years and years so I'm a little apprehensive. I've some mates in town so I'll be out on the lash some days and nights so I'll probably give Jomtien a miss. Not paying for the Marriott so that is out. Don't really know if I want a pool but I do want a safe, preferably in room (must be electronic if in room, none of this key <deleted>). Price wise ? depends on what but not over Bt1500 a day. Don't need breakfast. Where ? Maybe near the centre, was thinking about the Areca. Anyone got any recommendations for a hotel or decent condo around the middle of Pattaya ? Will go up to BigC but not to Naklua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuban Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 If you have your own transport (or even if not) consider one of the drive-in short time m/hotels. They will do you a discount rate for a week in advance, bring your own blanket - and anything else you might need (!) but the TV's OK, some do food (pizza delivery) etc. Central locations if that's important - or you can drive out of town if you need to be more discreet, if you know what I mean. (Something like 2,500 Baht for a week if I remember correctly.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrenova Posted October 20, 2008 Author Share Posted October 20, 2008 Thanks but don't need to be discreet, just haven't faced the problem for years and realised that whilst I can recommend some places to different people, I don't want to stay there and I'm short on ideas for where I would stay !

BROWNY Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Areca Lodge is an excellent choice - always my first choice anyway. And you get breakfast thrown in so you might as well have it (not that i ever see it !) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozsamurai Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Last time we were down there I thought on the next stay I would try le Claire De Lune on beach road, looked nice, up a bit along walking street. PM if you need details Oz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads in the area - Sabai Resort does some cheaper rooms as well, if you can be motivated to move each day you could review one each day for future referance?

It is located opposite the Villa Market (Avenue Shopping Mall). It is less than 1,000THB per day and very clean/nice. It has a very nice roof-top pool and the food is quite good from the restaurant. Speaking of the food, free breakfast each day. Given the hotels location, it is quite close to the 'action' and is still quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
torrenova Posted October 22, 2008 Author Share Posted October 22, 2008 Welcome Plaza Hotel - central/great pool. Yeah but no safe and in dire need of a makeover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really nice staff, and everything. Checked out their website but rooms very small at 25qm and quite a lot more loot than your quoted Bt1250 all in. Might call them tomorrow though.

ericg1953 Posted October 25, 2008 Share Posted October 25, 2008 I can highly recommend the Residence Garden Hotel. It isnt in the middle of Pattaya but a short way to Walking St. If you mention the FLB rate I believe it is 1400 baht a day. The room is 52 sq met. and is a 2 room suite with a small kitchen. Very nice pool and a good breakfast although not included. I have stayed there many times and think its the best deal for the money in town...has a safe in the room and 2 tv's as well. It is located on the way to Jomtien just past the 3rd road overpass...where captain corner bbq is. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
