Taking a trip to Pattaya where to stay what to do how to travel?

I am going to Pattaya and i am possible going alone i want to stay on the beach and close to walking street. I am looking for a hotel room around 150 US a night. I also and wanting to know about transportation from the airport with the entertainment waiting in the vehicle when i arrive? Also just want to know what to do during the day? I am going in September 1st time frame.


With a hotel room about 150 US a night, you should be able to rent the whole hotel. You an get nice resorts for US$ 50 at the max. I think the Diamond Hotel has transportation--if not Diamond one of those sleaze bag hotel/bars offer it. The best thing you can do during the day is sleep off the hangover. There are lots of activities starting with the beach, sports, shopping, tours.

first off- $150 USD is waaaaaay too much!

You can find a ton of great places for about $50 USD/night. Check the usual travel websites for good places near the beach (on Beach Road). What I'd suggest is finding out if your hotel of choice is "guest friendly" - that is some hotels in Pattaya charge as much as 1500 baht for you to bring a "guest" into your hotel room overnight. This can really add up over time. Guest Friendly hotels will not charge if you should bring a "friend" back to your room for an overnight visit.

Transportation to Pattaya from the airport can be arranged from several car services. Check the Pattaya forums for more info- I know of one (Mr. Toom's limo service) that has good service at reasonable prices. Ahemm- is there REALLY a need for in-car entertainment? I mean- there's going to be 100s of women waiting for you once you get to Pattaya. What's the rush...? Besides- what if an ugly one shows up in the car!

During the day, Pattaya offers several touristy things to see/do:

-Mini Siam. Small scaled down landmarks from across the world.

-Sanctuary of Truth. Magnificent teak wood temple.

-Noong Nooch Gardens. scenic and relaxing.

You can also take a ferry boat to nearby Koh Larn for a day trip. Girls really love this place...

Since your trip isn't until September, I'd suggest joining the various Pattaya travel forums.

Only the most expensive hotel in that area charges 150 USD per night. Which is Pattaya Marriott Resort & Spa:

But there are quite a few other hotels in the same area that charge a lot less. And most of them are pretty good too.

And you can book your limousine online at this website:

You just have to select 'OTHERS' for your destination. Because Pattaya is not listed. But I'm sure the limo can take you there.

First of all, you dont need to pay 150 USD /nite There are many excellent hotels for 40-60USD, some from 25USD. Some hotels will have their own minibus for pick-up and drop-off at the airport- check.

Some nice beaches, lots of watersports, golfing and tours. Lots of hot and wild nite life.
