Everything they say in the reviews is true. And about noisy air conditioners on the balconies, and about cosmetic repairs (smudges on the ceilings, old wallpaper), and about shabby furniture, and about monotonous breakfasts.

Everything they say in the reviews is true. And about noisy air conditioners on the balconies, and about cosmetic repairs (smudges on the ceilings, old wallpaper), and about shabby furniture, and about monotonous breakfasts. But the hotel is monitored, kept clean, no complaints. The biggest plus of this hotel is its location - very convenient. Everything is nearby. Nothing was missing from the room. But everything of value was put away in suitcases, including money. Tipping was left every day for 20 bp. Towels were changed every day. Shampoo and gels were brought as needed. There are no insects - the ants only crawled for sweets. You should not be afraid - you yourself can easily bring them to your room with fruit. Russians in this hotel are very fond of. I would like to write a few more words about travel agencies. Our tour operator was Biblio-Globus. The manager handles the excursions very well. He uses psychological tricks - like: it's safe here - they cheat everywhere, you only have 1 hour to buy excursions from us - then I'll be busy and we won't meet again. If you don’t mind the money, you can buy everything from them, otherwise the city is full of local travel agencies with lower prices. In the end, we bought from them only an excursion to the River Kwai (because there was a promotion - the price was reduced). The rest is Coco. Also, on the advice from the Internet, we bought 2 excursions from "Sasha" - next to the hotel. 1st - Alcazar - did not regret it - 1st row, central places, they drove and drove away by car, and also waited for us while we took pictures there after the show. 2nd - to the island of Koh Chang - sorry. Sasha himself does not organize long-distance excursions, as it turned out, and resold us to another travel agency, which gave the assembled group of people directly to the organizer. In the end, everything is fine, except that we had to stay on Koh Chang in a hotel with insects. It was still bearable in our room. But the neighbors were full of them. But we ran to Sasha for a massage at every opportunity. Cheap and nice. Especially with coconut oil. On the Kwai tour, you will also be offered a massage - agree. They do a real Thai massage - specially trained people. A little about the new Thai year: it was terribly fun) they watered for a whole week. Especially the Russians, as they hide at the sight of us.

I visited Thailand for the first time and realized that I would come back here again. It is not for nothing that they say that Thailand is a country of contrasts. So it is: hotels are like palaces, nature indulges in abundance and beauty, but the poverty of the population sometimes shocks. There is a lot to see in Thailand.

I visited Thailand for the first time and realized that I would come back here again.

There is a lot to see in Thailand. I would even say not to watch again. Here, there is a diverse flora and fauna, there is a great variety of unprecedented fruits, and white sand beaches (on the islands, of course), and the choice of excursions and entertainment is very large.
I want to say separately about the resort itself. There is an opinion that only young people are interested in Pattaya. Nothing like this! Of course, if your goal is to relax on the beach - you are on the islands. But if you want to know Thai as it is - definitely Pattaya!
And now about the hotel. CENTURY is quite a 3 *. no more and no less. Old but very comfortable hotel. Everywhere very clean, very friendly and polite staff.
Daily cleaning of the room, clean white linen. Three Russian channels. Standard rooms are small and simple. Views from the windows of the city. By the way, the location is very convenient - on the main street. Any of the supermarkets - BigCi or TOPS - is a stone's throw away, there are also a fruit market and a bunch of all sorts of shops with things and souvenirs, a lot of cafes nearby. And also in the immediate vicinity is a huge shopping and entertainment complex Central Festival Pattaya. Near the Festival there is a very cheap market where you can buy good souvenirs.
Breakfast at the hotel is not very varied. Buffet, where you can choose from: scrambled eggs, ham, sausages, Thai noodles, Thai soups with chicken, pork, fish, pancakes, rice with vegetables, and some other Thai dishes. The choice of vegetables and fruits is poor: cucumber, tomato, pineapple and watermelon. From drinks, a couple of types of juice, coffee, tea.
The pool is small but very clean. The entire territory of the hotel and there is a swimming pool with a well-groomed tiny garden.
In general, as I said - 3 * no more, no less. You can ride without fear: no bedbugs, no theft.
And as a bonus to the hotel - in the next building there is a massage parlor "Sasha" (Sasha). I love masseuses. They are so friendly and funny! Yes, the massage is very good. Also in this salon you can buy excursions. DO NOT BE AFRAID! This is a licensed agency. And the owner is a wonderful person. He speaks very good Russian. I bought all excursions only there, including to Bangkok and on the river. Qui. Everything was top notch. Buses Pegas Touristik and Natalie Tours traveled close to our bus, only they paid 1.5-2 times more and rode large buses. And we had small groups of 10-13 people and super comfortable minibuses.
And our Russian tour operators, in my opinion, buy excursions in the same Thai agencies. That's it.

Rested in this hotel 05.03-19.03. 11. At first, the hotel did not impress, but after a few days and talking with tourists from other hotels, we fell in love with it. Yes, there is no view from the windows, but we didn’t look through them, but it was 10 minutes walk to the sea - it was normal for us, to TOPS, where there is EVERYTHING - 5 minutes, and the most important thing is the center! Immediately to the right of the hotel there is a massage parlor SASHI has a good massage, we took excursions from them - to Bangkok (guide Galina 100 points), Nong-Nuch, Alcazar! The owner is generally a sincere person, speaks good Russian.

The owner is generally a sincere person, speaks good Russian. Breakfast at the hotel is decent and tasty, the safe at the reception is open 10.00-23.00. There was no hair dryer in the room, I took my own, the girl from the next room was asked and brought to her, and the iron and ironing board too. The pool is large, clean, at 15.00 the sun goes down. Furniture and wallpaper are really old, but everything is clean, cleaned every day, plumbing works. The regulator on the air conditioner does not work, only on and off, but it cools very decently. The staff is friendly, English is very bad, in the end they understood. There are a lot of Chinese in the hotel, they did not bother us at all, apparently they were settled on other floors, and we met with them only in the morning for breakfast. There are questions - write. In general, a good hotel for the money, I advise! ! It cost us 43.000 for 14 nights for two!

Normal hotel. Friendly staff. Cleaning every day. There are a lot of Chinese, but at 8 in the morning they all leave until the evening. Large swimming pool with few swimmers. Massage at the hotel (200 baht), but we went close to Ratsarmee. The girls are more friendly there. Nearby (if you go to the 2nd street) Thai agency Pat Travel (excursion to Koh Chang 3 days-3000 baht).

The hotel is average. If you go with children, then not to this hotel. The location is very convenient, everything is within walking distance (shops, restaurants, Volkin Sri, the beach). The breakfast is good. The rooms are free, but the renovation leaves much to be desired.
