SGD Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 I haven't needed to book a hotel room at a hotel in Pattaya for donkeys and now I need one for a few days later this month. The trouble is that I just don't have my finger on the pulse for this nowadays. Budget is up to a couple of grand but for that I'd want a decent hotel, newish and not some old place with delusions of grandeur. I don't want to walk up umpteen floors so I guess a lift is a must unless low rise. I would need to see it on the net beforehand so internet presence would be a definite. As for the room itself, I don't need to luxury but a decent shower is a must as are some decent towels. Soi Buakhow baht busters are probably not going to cut mustard. Decent and clean bed as well, minimum cable TV and not some crumby 1990s portable. Aircon a must. I've looked over the LK group offerings and they seem fairly decent with some in ok locations. I don't know much else apart from the old timers so please throw up some offerings and advice. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTH Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 Not sure what Tim charges these days, but I know she’s gone down form her initial offering. Think she got the hotel rated at 4 stars, and the rooms are quite nice, with and a decent roof top pool. So at least check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGD Posted August 3, 2011 Author Share Posted August 3, 2011 (edited) Tried but most sub links busted, as is the special offers page and all the photos ones. Also no immediate booking and a website stuck in the dark ages. Typically Thai thought process IMHO. So thanks but a no go due to their crass stupidity. Edit - looked elsewhere but prices for this month start around Bt2200/2400/2900 for basic up to Bt3500 for a jacuzzi room. Not sure if I think it was ever worth that much. Building work all day, noisy too, and charging a few hundred an hour for internet is a pi55 take.(Trip Advisor / Agoda) Edited August 3, 2011 by SGD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always stay there and no complaints...... I didn't know they made plasmas that small http://www.arecalodge.com/image/luxury2.jpg Looks like a 26" or maybe a 32" at a push. Who would put that in a new room instead of at least a 40/42" ? Cheers for the heads up about the new wing though. Great location. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For reference the Nature View hotel gps is here. 12.927335,100.883634 For the money it is a nice hotel AND if you are going to Pattaya by car it has an underground car park.
