Daz thanks for all the Pattaya information. I am bringing a good friend who is recently divorced, to Pattaya for his first time. It's going to be fun to watch him go crazy. I know there are a few hotels with Jacuzzi rooms, but it is hard to get that information from booking sites. Those sites usually tell you about a shared Jacuzzi, not in room. Maybe you can do a blog about hotels with Jacuzzi rooms in central Pattaya. Thanks

Hotel Tropicana is where I stayed for one week in July. Great stay great stay never asked about the guests I brought back. Booked thru Agoda worked out to be $215 all in (pagoda fees taxes everything). 500 baht deposit which I received back in full. Breakfast buffet 300 baht. My room was second floor next to pool. I was able to turn down the AC to 65 degrees ( make sure to get two pass keys so you can leave one in the electric switch for the room, otherwise everything turns off when you leave) Easy to walk to everything and baht bus is right there at beach rd. I would stay here again.

My 2 cents - first one way overpriced though nice. The Seven Zea is my clear favorite for Agoda quoted price of 900bht a night (I figure it is 1100 after Agoda pads the bill 20% like they always do at checkout). The last one is decent choice too though I would spend the extra 300bht to get the nicer room with balcony and nice pool. That gym though ... ugh. Yeah Seven Zea for the clear win! My only argument against getting these hotels around 'the Six' is as fun as that area is, it can be a bit difficult getting to Soi Buakhao area. Either walk to beach road and get on baht bus and spend 10-15 going all the way down and then back up 2nd road before getting off and walking. Or walk all the way down to Central Pattaya Road then take baht bus to Soi Buakhao street or continue walking. That is about a 15-20 minute walk though (in the heat) so people like me will be sweating heavily and in desperate need of some 7-11 AC haha. Depending on traffic even the baht buses can get rather toasty sitting inside for 15 minutes depending on traffic conditions. For my November trip I decided on Whisper hotel, has anybody stayed there? It's more expensive (about $40/night), but I really like the location as it is very short walk to either 2nd Rd or Soi Buakhao. So if I want to visit the Six it would be two minutes walking then hop on baht bus. Soi Buakhao just two minute walk and hop on baht bus (or walk). Walking Street probably about a 7-10 minute walk not too bad.

Seven Zea , Pattaya Blue Sky. Best Beach Hotel are all great choices right there on Soi 5.

@clrodrick2 ай бұрын
please explain how one can 'ride all the way to Treetown in a few minutes. Ain't happening unless you order a rideshare. You would need to walk to Beach Rd and hop on baht bus and wait for it to loop all the way down to Walking Street then back up 2nd Rd and ride it all the way North until you get to Myth and then walk 5 minutes East to get to Treetown. That is more like 20 minutes at least
