PATTAYA - Basic Hotel Restaurant Info

re SEX with HOOKERS

GUIDE only :

Use the information below as a broad guide only.

It will be helpful in getting you started.

I do visit Pattaya infrequently , and then personally update info below. Otherwise updates are based on regular second hand reliable sources.

"Reviewed" (below) means info re-read and adjusted where necessary.

--

Another way of updating info is via YOUR 'Field Reports" , sent in on return from trips overseas.

Fellow Mongers will appreciate any info you can supply.

--

Overall , you should not rely on any one website for accurate/up to date info. Scour the Internet and draw your own conclusions : )

UPDATES : Reviewed September 2008.

Check "Field Reports - Thailand" for the possibility of fresher info/updates (doubtful .... so far , very few people are contributing to Thailand Field Reports).

------

INTRO - Pattaya is a seaside town (approx 150kms from Bangkok) with a difference. Wall to wall beer bar pussy , in a relaxed 'open air' environment. No high rises hovering over you and nowhere near the vehicular traffic of its bigger sin sister, Bangkok. Space you have got a plenty. Principally a Beer Bar town with adequate amounts of Go-Go's, Disco's , Freelance Spots and Massage Parlours. Everything that Bangkok has got but not more. Only more in respect of Beer Bars and relaxed atmosphere has it got more. A great twin act, bouncing betweeen Bangkok and Pattaya. Once you have experienced Bangkok and Pattaya you have seen a big chunk of Thailands sex scene. Everything after Bangkok and Pattaya pales by comparison. Patong (Phuket) and Chiangmai etc fans might disagree however. But for full on sex opportunities, the sin cities of Bangkok and Pattaya are hard to beat.

TRANSPORT:

Transport from Bgk Airport (SUV) -

NOTE : All of the previous extensive info had to be trashed with the advent of the closing of Don Muang Airport and the opening of the SUV (Suvarnabhumi) Airport.

So , the following info re the SUV airport will be updated and fine tuned as info is collected :

Dont forget. If stuffed , you can always go to the Airport Info Desk to sort things out. They are all competent and speak English.

Taxi Booth : SUV has a taxi booth out the front as you exit the building. Procedure , buy a ticket , hop in taxi and away you go. Ignore any taxi touts , buy ticket at official booth , baht 1100/1200 plus 50 Baht airport service charge , plus Bt60 Toll fee. See Update below (re prices). So all up you owe taxi driver : Bt1210/1310. Round it up to Bt1300/1400 and he will be happy. Confirm at taxi booth price plus extra's ie total driver expects. Then confirm with driver before he takes your bags etc = no hassles later on. Can be cheaper if you go to Departures , no booth , no ticket , and offer Bt1000 to the first taxi you see , but maybe not so safe/sure that way. Still have to add the Bt60 and Bt50 on top of that (see above). Taxi's take about 1.5hrs or more (130kms ?) depending on traffic conditions. UPDATE : Possibility taxi booth ticket now costs Bt1500 ? , not sure.

Apparently you can get a return trip from , Pattaya to SUV , by taxi for Bt800 at the taxi stand in 2nd Street Pattaya. Some Hotels sell the Bt800 taxi ticket. Supposedly incl's toll/s. Confirm on purchase. Otherwise , enquire at one of the many travel agents in Pattaya.

Limo's : Only have sketchy info on this service , apparently Bt3000. AOT Limo's. Normally they are Toyota Crown type sedans , not limo's as such. Check at Airport enquiry desk , if you can't find their ticket office inside the building.

Bus - At SUV you catch the free Airport Shuttle Bus (blue ?) to the nearby Bus Terminal , possibly the first stop. A government bus from there costs about Bt120. Possibly first bus departs around 6.45am , not sure. Friend recommends private enterprise : "Roon Reungs , Blue and White Coach Service. Hopefully the buses are painted blue and white : ) They depart 8am , 11am , 3pm and 7pm. Bt150 (?) to Pattaya bus terminal. There is also another bus company to choose from , no doubt with different departure times.

My info (not grapevine) : On arrival at Pattaya , follow the leader and board a Songthaew communal pick up (Baht Bus) to within your accom for Baht 20 or right to your front door for a little more , enquire with driver. Now , if your flight can not connect up with a Pattaya Bus , then you will have to catch a bus from airport to Ekemai Bus Station Bangkok city , and then an express bus to Pattaya terminal Bt280 all up. Very slow way to get to Pattaya. Better to catch a taxi if you can not link up with an Airport bus direct to Pattaya.

All the above info is 'a work in progress' , but I would use it (have no other : ) Backtrack to Airport Info Desk inside the terminal , if you need to clarify anything.

Transport from Bangkok City itself (not the Airport) -

1. Taxi - If you tell the driver to use the Meter it should cost Baht 1000 approx , including cost of Tolls. It will take less than 2 hours, if the driver takes the new expressway/tollway. However , if you ask "how much" = who knows how much he will sting you , could be anything from Baht 1200 - 1500 : ) UPDATE : Gasoline increases might have pushed the min fare to Bt1200/1300 ?

2. Mini Van - Gasoline increases are being used as an excuse to charge ex your Hotel Bt400/450 on average. Make arrangements via your Hotel Front Desk. Some times they take an hour to pick up all the other passengers at various Bangkok Hotels before they actually depart Bangkok City itself. Once they have left the city limits it takes about 2hrs to arrive at Pattaya. One of the advantages of the mini van over the Ekemai Bus is , the mini van picks you up at your front door and drops you off at your Pattaya Hotel front door. See below 'On arrival at Pattaya'. The biggest disadvantage of the Mini Van : its the slowest most long circuited way of getting to Pattaya. Myself , I dont mind the extra time , I like the convenience (ex front of Hotel) and relative cheapness compared to taxi's : )

3. Bus - Catch a taxi to Ekemai Bus Station (or alternatively BTS/Sky Train to Ekemai Train Station) From Ekemai - Air con express buses leave every 30 mins 24 hours a day, 6am to 11pm. Enter the Terminal itself and buy your ticket from the very first ticket booth on your right , booth number 32. Costs around 113 Baht and takes just around two hours to get to Pattaya (varies according to traffic conditions) Your seat number is on the back of the seat you actually sit in. If your a big guy , buy two tickets so you can stretch out a bit (still cheap). This El Cheepo way involves a bit of lugging your bags around. From Pattaya Bus Terminal , you catch a communal open aired pick up utility called 'Baht Bus' or more correctly 'Songthaew'. It will charge you Baht20/30 to share the ride to yours and others Hotels. At Pattaya terminal look around for people placing their bags and themselves on these communal taxis (Songthaew). They are heading the same way as you are.

On arrival at Pattaya -

If you arrive by taxi/limousine or Mini Van you will have no problems cause you will be dropped at the front door of your Hotel. If arriving by bus from Ekemai Station or SUV airport , you will have to catch a Songthaew (Communal pickup type Taxi , also called Baht Bus) to Pattaya proper. This will cost you around Baht20 (Communal - sharing). Some ask for more. You will not necessarily be dropped at a spot convenient to your Hotel. Enquire before hand. Fingers crossed he understands you : ) If you want a Songthaew to yourself and can find one out on the street empty with little chance of passengers , 60-80 Baht might get you to your destination , with no picking up of passengers along the way.

Transport within Pattaya - Songthaew - a covered utility/pick up with bench seats each side. Baht 10 regular trip (Falangs/Foreigners .... locals : Baht 5). Communal (sharing). Motorbike taxi's are better, in that they will drop you right at the specific spot you want to go to without stopping anywhere along the way. Cost a little more (Baht20-30 for regular trips) but if you don't know your way around they are the best 'taxi' to catch. They will drive slowly and carefully if you request them too ("cha cha khrup" : )

Returning to Bangkok City or SUV Airport :

1. Mini Van service.

To Bangkok City (not airport) : Private operators pick up folks at their Hotels and take them to Bangkok City for around Bt4/450 (most prob latter). There is a delay picking up other folks before you actually depart Pattaya , but I still prefer to travel this way (convenient pick up at hotel and relatively cheap). Ask your Hotel Front Desk or any Pattaya Travel Agent ,eg , in Walking Street Pattaya for a provider.

SUV Airport : I do not know what the Mini Van charges for SUV are, ask at Travel Agent or Front Desk of your hotel.

3. Taxi :

To Bangkok City (not airport) : Apparently there is a Taxi Stand on 2nd Rd , between Soi8 and Soi7. If you say 'meter' to taxi driver = around 800* plus toll fees of Bt150 (to Bangkok City , not Airport) If you do not specify 'meter' they will quote more than Baht1000. The only problem with this way , you can not be sure there will be a taxi at the stand when you arrive via Songthaew (communal taxi truck) with your bag/s. UPDATE : I saw at Lek Hotel (see accom below) they advertise Taxi Bt850 plus Bt150 tolls = Bt1000.

Taxi to SUV Airport : Apparently you can get a return trip from , Pattaya to SUV , by taxi for Bt800 at the taxi stand in 2nd Street Pattaya. There would be toll fees (Bt60 ?) to pay on top of that. Alternatively ask at your Hotel Front Desk for info or Touist Info Office , Beach Rd , near beginning of Walking St.

4. Bus :

To Bangkok City (not airport) : If returning to Bangkok city itself and not the airport : The Bus Terminal in Pattaya is some distance past Big C and not far from Thai Air Ofc. Baht 113 to Bangkok , air con express bus. Buses every 30 mins. Doubt if 20 Baht Communal Songthaew pickup taxi would get you to the Terminal , more likely 30Baht. If you want Songthaew to go direct to Terminal express , without picking up other passengers = Bt100. Enquire at the Pattaya TAT (Tourist Authority Thailand) Office in Beach Road , re this and any other queries you may have. In Bangkok get out of Bus at Ekemai Bus Station and walk short metres to Ekemai Sky Train service. Otherwise catch a taxi.

Bus to Airport (SUV) : Info not personally experienced , 2nd hand info : "Catch a Songthaew/Baht Bus to Bell Travel at the Pattaya Bus Terminal. Buses depart 6am , 9am , 11am , 1pm , 3pm , 5pm , 7pm for Bt150". Supposedly takes 2.5 hrs to get to Airport. Best on arrival at bus terminal from SUV (Bangkok Airport) , you make your enquiries and get latest bus schedules and prices back to SUV. If their schedule does not fit , catch a taxi , see notes above.

Lek Hotel - On the corner of Soi.13 and Pattaya 2nd Road. UPDATE : See update at end.

Coming from Beach Road its a fair distance down on the left hand side of Soi.13. Phone 038.425550-2/42385. Fax: 66.38. 426629. Email : lek_hotel@hotmail.com Good location, sandwiched in between the Go-Go/Disco Nightlife further South and the Beer Bar scene further North. Save heaps on food bill with their Smorgasbord Brunch Bt117 (7am-1pm). Evening Buffet 6pm - 10.30pm Bt160. Great buffets , and I am hard to please when it comes to food (and chicks). This is the way to save money, or to get good value meals. All you can eat for a modest outlay. Rooms are Baht 600-1000 , depending whether high/low season and whether new or old wing. Check whether the breakfast buffet is included in your tariff. Plenty of guys staying and dining there with their ladies of the night. Popular place. Ideal accommodation for guys on a budget. This is my number one recommendation for 'Budget Bangers'.

UPDATE : Been getting a couple of reports that Lek is not so great. Great for buffets but some criticism re as a place of accommodation , eg , read Field Reports Pattaya.

For pos more info : http://www.asiatravel.com/lek/index.html

The Haven Hotel - Soi .13. just off beach road. Baht 850 . Rooms clean , Restaurant , Laundry , Beer all good and cheap. Overnight guests no prob. Swimming Pool. (This information supplied by "Big Fred"....See Field Reports , Pattaya, No.1. Report ... for slightly more info.)

Soi.8. Accommodation :

(Further away from Walking Street and the action)

Note - 1. No overnight guest problems or o/night guest fee in Soi 8 , but check beforehand just in case. 2. Soi.8 can be noisy (Beer Bar music) to 2am = for some , hard to sleep before then. 3. If walking without a girl , the girls in this street will good humouredly try and drag you into their bar every time you pass. Some guys consider this a hassle , others a source of amusement. 4. You are walking distance to most of Pattaya's nightlife action. Soi.8. is certainly a lively street : )

Eastiny Place - Soi 8 , just in from Beach Road, on the right hand side as you walk towards 2nd Rd. A relatively new Hotel with good rooms , s. pool , cable tv. @ Baht 800 to Bt1500 depending on whether high/low season and type of room. Incl's breakfast. "B" building is supposed to be the best. Eastiny Hotel - is further down Soi.8. on left hand side , not so new as 'Place'. Also popular. Email: eastinny@ptty.loxinfo.co.th/ eastinyinn@hotmail.com.

Flipper Lodge - Soi.8. Popular monger haunt. Baht880 , low season , Bt1100 high season. In house Massages cheap viz Baht 300 for a straight Massage plus 500 for full sex. Flipper Hotel is in Soi.7. Try : www.flippergroup.com

Check room before putting money down. If necessary , ask : "Have you got better room" ? (most probably yes). Popular, including its Buffet Breakfast (Bt105 at last count) , but not convenient enough for me. No overnight guest fee. They check or keep the girls ID overnight.

Diana Inn - 216/6 Pattaya 2nd Road, a little further south from Apex Hotel. In between Soi’s 11 & 12 on the opposite side of the road. Phone 038.429675 Fax 66.38.424566. Email: dianagrp@loxinfo.co.th/www.golfasia.com Dbl Air Con Rooms - 650Bt.

Cheapies close to the action:

Sangkaew Beach Hotel - 147 South Pattaya Beach Road. Phone 038. 428085/422369. Houses , units and el cheepo bungalow style rooms. This is an old favourite of mine. On the beach side of the road , rooms 1 - 4 are facing the seaside and Bt600 , numbers 5 - 7 are facing the tad noisy road and cost Bt500. Certainly not upscale, but very convenient and no prob's with ladies. Walk 2 mins and your in the thick of it (nightlife action).

P72 Hotel - Coming from Marine Bar a few metres up on the right hand side you will see the P72 Hotels Restaurant open on to the footpath. It's on the corner of a laneway before Soi.15. Opens early for breakfasts. Cheapy. Possibility of 'noise' here though. Bt600/800. New wing : Bt1200/1500. Phone 038. 421784/429291. Fax: 421781. No website (?)

P.N. Inn - Walk down the laneway that P72 Restaurant is on the corner of , and you will find on your right hand side: P. N . Inn. Phone 038.424422. Dbl Air Bt 300 which is extremely cheap for the great location in the middle of all the action. Good lobby, full house at the time of my enquiries and so could not look at the rooms. Very nice Receptionist, who unfortunately could not speak English very well. The place had ambience. Recommended for a check out (suitability).

Other - possibly info via www.hotelthailand.com/pattaya/pattaya/html

RESTAURANTS:

Most things in Pattaya are cheaper than in Bangkok, but not the Restaurants. Exception : Buffets at Hotels.

Lek Hotel - See Accommodation notes above. On the corner of Soi.13 and Pattaya 2nd Road. Coming from Beach Road its a fair distance down on the left hand side of Soi.13. Catch a motorcyc taxi if its too far to walk to. Here they have Buffet Brunches 7am - 1pm Bt117 . Evenings 4pm - 10.30pm Bt180. The best Thai buffets I have come across. Not out of this world , but meets my requirements. Lots of guys dining here with their Ladies of the Night. Apex Hotel , just nearby in Pattaya 2nd Road , has modestly priced buffets too (never tried em , Lek good enough for me).

When you need a change , try one of the following two :

Sportsmans Pub - Soi.13 Walking St. Havent tried it yet , popular with Mongers.

Pig and Whistle - Soi.7. Walking St. Haven't tried it yet , but popular with Mongers.

Also rans :

Marine Disco - Opposite Marine Disco , and 10/20 metres further north you will find a 'German Restaurant'. I have eaten there on more than one occasion and found the food satisfactory and when I was there , the waitresses had a sense of humour. But then , they always do when I am around : )

Buds Restaurant - A fair walk up Beach Road heading North from Marine Disco.You can prop here on the footpath and sip a beer. Might catch a passing fly ? : ) A reasonable el cheepo Restaurant, but Lek is much better value and by far more comprehensive food on offer.

Baywatch Restaurant - A little further up from Bud , on the same side. This one was there in the mid 1970's. Don't recall it being called Baywatch then though. Young American guy in partnership with a more mature Thai woman those days . I enquired as to the Americano's existence and the girls said he was long gone. Typical of cross culture partnerships - they rarely last/go the distance. This place was value in the 1970's, but not any more. Buds better and Lek better than Buds.

Pattaya 2 Road - is regarded as a good Restaurant Street, but I didn't think so. On my brief reconnoitre of that street I did not see any sign of a 'Restaurant Blvd'. Perhaps you will ? Vientiane is one that get's regular mentions. It's possibly somewhere near Soi 13/1 (Soi Yamato) UPDATE : October 2005 , Vientiane was sighted in walking street and absolutely empty ! (not a good sign : )

----------------

My daily routine was , to fill up at Lek's late morning, middle of the day, then have tomato and potato salads at the German Restaurant opposite Marine Disco in the evenings. In fact the beer maids at Marina Bar would walk across the street and get my salads for me whilst I sat on the stool drinking beer, perving on the women and hoping for a nice fly to fall into my web. Now I call that service ! Can't do that in the Western world : ) UPDATE : On recent trips never sat at Marina Bar. Scene has changed. That area relatively dead. Marine/Marina have got 'problems' .. not attracting the crowds anymore. Only last hour or two early a.m. disco gets customers , cause other disco's too crowded , otherwise they'd get nobody.

INTERNET

Last trip found 'Marine Internet' best for my purposes (using laptop). Location : opposite Marina Bar (in Walking Street) you'll see a laneway in between beer bars. Walk down that lane 100mtrs and its on the left. Another , a bit cramped by comparison : "Ice" Internet , Soi.14 , Walking St. Think it was Bt30 per hour. Marine Internet is the one. You'll find Int Cafes here and there , no real problem locating them.
