Thanks 🙏 I will be returning next year do you have any recommendations for hotels, bars and restaurants.

@@paulsrighteye Hi, you've done one very good hotel here already so my suggestion is try one of the floating River raft hotels, I've done it and it's a different experience for sure. Restaurants - Tapas thai . Bars - sugar members (and maybe Aussie rules but never been there yet) keep up the good works

@jimhollands1285 Thanks for the recommendations, I'll have a look at some of them next time 🙏

You are very welcome 😁 thanks for watching 😎

No, you can get rooms at the back of the hotel, it would be the same view as from the gym 😁

The best thing I can say is go to your doctor and ask. I don't have one. 💉

So glad you enjoyed the video 😀

Yep, definitely a case of shirt sleeve order 😎

I've never stayed at the March hotel so will have to look at that one. I thought the same about Soi 7 but the hotel is new and well sound proofed so you don't hear too much noise from the bars. Well spotted she says hello 😁😁

I suppose it depends on what time of year you go. We went low season and got a great price 😀

Thank you so much 😊

Yes you can, on the balcony at the front of the hotel. I don't know if you can smoke on the balcony in the bedroom 😎

You can smoke in room balcony. I stayed here for a week last year.

I smoked a few joints on the balcony

That's so interesting, I would love to know your friends views on the hotel and why he was glad to check out. It just goes to show how much hotels change from week to week In Thailand 😁

That's a great question both have their pros and cons I will have to look into that😁😁 That could be a subject for a future video.

@@paulsrighteye Areca lodge is Good but it would depend on where you want to be. Areca for LK metro. Blackwoods for Soi 6 and beach road. Blackwoods is more expensive.

It’s alway full even in October when I have tried to book

@roberthornbrook8374 I guess you'll just have to try and book early.

It's fairly standard for Thailand, a few busy bars and some nice restaurants.

It was the price, this was much cheaper than other similar hotels with breakfast in this area of Pattaya.

@@paulsrighteye loads of excellent hotels in the area for less than 1400 baht add on a multitude of breakfast options for less than 150 baht, that's less than the Heeton, I watched thinking that the hotel was doing some sort of serviced apartment package or something different from the usual. All you did was a hotel promo which wasn't in any way a game changer.

I'm sorry if you feel I have misled you in some way, but I still think this is excellent value for this level of hotel with breakfast for two people in this area. I recently stayed at the Acera lodge that was 1950 per night.

@@paulsrighteye agreed i think it is excellent value, it's also in a great location. I was just flummoxed about the 'game changer' quote 555

Hi thanks for your comments, Let me know of any cheaper hotels with breakfast you find and I will check them out 😄

Thanks for sharing your experience always good to get other opinions on the hotels.

Flick the towel off

Nobody gives a f about Russia

Correct it was the Mercure hotel, great location.

Thanks very much, glad you enjoyed the video.

Definitely worth looking around the booking sites for a good price.😁

Thanks for watching, I will be much more careful next time.😁

The price was THB499 which is about $14 with no taxes 😊

If you go to the Thai Gardens Resort Facebook page they post a lot of the picture from the buffet nights 😁

@@paulsrighteye It's more advice, take it or leave it, but I clicked on the vid to see a buffet, and there was not much buffet in vid...

@avernvrey7422 Thanks for the advice, I will take your comments on board 😊

Yes it's a great value night out, I would recommend getting a table by the pool. 😎

Yep, we had a good night, it was well worth the money 😁

Yes I totally agree with all your comments, it has one of the biggest selections of breakfast I've had in Thailand so far of any hotel 😎

Yes, it is a great location with two very good swimming pools 😁

That must've been about 10 or 12 years ago. I remember when the area that is now terminal 21 was a Kiss restaurant and a market.

@@paulsrighteye yes I used to eat in that restaurant on the way back drunk it was open 24 hours

That's mad, happy memories, do you still holiday in Pattaya?

@@paulsrighteye yes got a lovely lady there she lives up north and we go Pattaya sometimes we might pop there end of may

Where do you stay these days? 🤔

Thanks Tony, I stayed here because it was Songkran 🌊 and thought it would be slightly drier than in the middle of town. It was quite a nice hotel with a good breakfast 🥞

Thanks for the heads up! It's always worth paying for your drinks as you go in bars 😎

@@paulsrighteye yes, lesson learnt lol

Cha am is quite a relaxing place the hotel we stayed at was very nice and there are restaurants just down the road within walking distance.

I'm glad you found the video helpful, try to get a room without an adjoining door it will be much quieter for you. Hope you enjoy your stay in Pattaya 😎

@@paulsrighteye tHanks so very much!

It's good fun when you want to join in, for a short time. We are staying out of town so we don't get too caught up in it unless we want to.

It's one of the must walk up and down holiday places when in Pattaya to visit 😁. A lot of the action happens inside the clubs.

Not heard of that one 😁 where do you go these days?

Thanks 😊 glad you enjoyed it.

I think you're paying mostly for a location, but I do agree with you about the coffee, it's not the best🤣

Well, for your first time in Pattaya you can't go far wrong staying here. At booking try to get yourself into the Corona building. 😁😁

For a first visit you can't go far wrong with Flipper Lodge hotel at Beach Rd end of Soi 8 . I think the clean, spacious rooms are 1600 ish baht per night with a good breakfast choice and a large rooftop pool. It was my first hotel I ever stayed at in Pattaya way back in February '07. Also you'll find it on websites, but you'll pay a small commission fee, so I just wander round Pattaya until I find a hotel to my liking. Which may involve staying in a bland place for a couple of nights, then booking in a nicer place long term and bartering a deal.

Where did you stay last time always interested in new hotels?

@@paulsrighteye Amethyst, just round the corner. 👍👍

When I asked about a room in the Amethyst they wanted B 2,600 room only!

@@paulsrighteye Yikes. peng mak!!! I got a good deal, something like 1800baht with breakfast. That was last October, and I booked it 6 months in advance. x

Top of the class, Gold star for observation, you are right it got mixed in by mistake.🤣

You are very welcome 😁 Yes it is a nice hotel I'm hoping to go back myself 🌊🌊🌊

Glad you enjoyed your stay, I had no problem with the water pressure in the room I was in perhaps it depends on which building You're in! 😃

I suppose that could be a problem, maybe switch it off if you want to sit on the balcony.

Thanks for your lengthy appraisal of your Evergreen room, you are correct they have not been refurbished in Evergreen. With the breakfast room abandoned and reception empty the Evergreen building doesn't have a very welcoming fill anymore. Onwards and upwards I hope you have a better experience next time you visit Pattaya. 😎

I've had a few people say the same thing on pricing, would love to know where you stay now.

@@paulsrighteye I like the Jomtein condo Airbnb options...

The exterior of Corona might have been decorated in 2017 but the interior room makeovers were definitely finish last year, I witnessed them being done in October 2023. I agree it's becoming pricey would love to know where you stay now, always looking for recommendations.

@@paulsrighteye Last several trips, been staying at Caesars Palace on second road. Good price, not the fanciest at all. Soi 7 and Myth town are very short walks. Soi New Plaza next door. Easy to get everywhere you want to go!

Great place to Stay and reasonable rates ,ignore the Foolish comments from another know it all. Breakfast choice is massive,room rates start at about 1450 baht and the staff are great. Location is brilliant being 6 minutes walk to beach 5 minutes to Treetown. Anything better or equal to this and i am all ears...

Stayed there twice before and again next month Never any issues with the room or the staff

@@tillithurts335 I have stayed numerous times over the years andi still think it is great. Rates have gone up slightly due to room refurb but for me i still rate it highly.

You can get room rate lower sometimes depends on which booking site you use and how far in advance you book, but you're right monthly rates are apparently a lot lower.
