I would also recommend a massage parlor opposite the hotel, there are two of them, we went to the one on the left. The hostess Dari, masseuses Tan and Jian do a great job if you go to them all the time - they make discounts for 50 baht, and try even more!
We were very pleased with the location of the hotel. Not far from the center, the beach at the Garden Sea View Hotel is wonderful, during the entire holiday there was only once garbage in the water, there were few people. When we saw the city beach in the center, we were shocked. And here - just a fairy tale! There were no problems with sunbeds, we were more satisfied with the sand and sun loungers under palm trees. And delicious Thai beer! (buy in the "seven", cheaper and more).
Small minus - there is no cheap fruit market nearby. We went once to the market at the beginning of Naklua Street (the final one for tuk-tuks), everything is expensive there, and it’s a long way to go. We made do with what was on our street.
We can also advise you to contact Oleg about excursions, not far from Garden Sea View, everything is much cheaper than tour operators. We went to the river Kwai for 3000 baht per person, we liked everything!! ! everything was great!!!
You can also advise women with children to go to the Thai pharmacy "Parinda", free transport can be ordered by phone from TV advertising. There, Russian guys will tell you everything and advise, the range of Thai drugs is huge. The most interesting thing in this pharmacy is a talking bird in a cage in front of the entrance, oh, and laughed!
We are planning another trip to Pattaya in a year, we want to return to this hotel!
We arrived at the hotel in the morning. A $50 deposit is required upon check-in, but will be refunded upon check-out. At the reception, we were immediately given 2 cards that open the door to the room and turn on the electricity, and coupons for breakfast. The staff is very polite and helpful.
We lived on the 7th floor, room 706. View of the sea and the construction site (a new hotel is under construction). The room is perfectly clean, bed linen and towels are changed every day. They also cleaned every day. The room has air conditioning, TV, safe, hairdryer, bathrobes, slippers, refrigerator, mini-bar (fee), Wi-Fi. Shampoo, soap, cotton swabs, body lotion changed as needed.
Breakfast from 6:00 to 10:30. The food was very tasty and varied.
The hotel has a pool, but it is small. But this did not bring any inconvenience, because. next to the hotel are the hotels Zign and Garden Sea View, which could be visited for free, because. they have one owner. There are more pools, there is a beach. Although the water is not perfectly clean, you can swim. You can also use the gym and sauna.
Near the hotel there is an exchange office, cafes, shops, a pharmacy, massage parlors.
In general, the hotel is just wonderful!!!!! ! Have a nice holiday everyone!!!! !
In general, you can safely go to this hotel! but you need to ask for rooms no higher than 6 floors, because air conditioners on the roof are noisy
The hotel is awesome!! ! New. clean, tidy!!!! ! The staff is friendly and helpful!!! ! They mostly speak English, only one knows a little Russian.
Settled immediately, for 10 minutes, filling out paperwork is minimal!! ! Escorted to the room. They explain everything and show how it works. give coupons for breakfast and 2 plastic cards to open the door and air conditioning!!!
I went with my daughter (1 year 9 months), I was immediately provided with a crib, and even on wheels. to make it easier to move. The child was satisfied with everything! We had a room with one large bed in bright colors, shower, toilet, bath are separate. Separated from the room by a wall of medium height (there is a photo), some rooms still have a door. There is a safe, kettle, tea, coffee, drinking water (0.5 per person), air conditioning, refrigerator, mini bar for a fee, telephone, 2 bathrobes, 2 pairs of slippers, 2 umbrellas, gel, shampoo, body lotion (replenished daily) . Bed linen and towels are changed daily. Well, everything is just great!
The rooms face the street and partially the beach (starting from the 5th floor and in even order). We lived on the 6th floor. in room 615 with city view. Of course, these are not super streets with new clean houses, but everything is quite normal and does not depress in any way !! ! The only minus in the room is that there is no table with chairs, if you come to sit with a company, then there will be nowhere. Although we figured out how to change the situation - we pushed the TV aside, moved the sofa and calmly set the table)))) (there is a photo)
Breakfast from 6 to 10 am, there is everything. whatever you want, fruit. salads, pastries, meat dishes, soups with a lot of meat, milk, juices, etc. My daughter ate everything. we only brought porridge with us, because they are not cooked here for breakfast.
Towels are issued at the reception for each person.
The hotel does not have its own beach, but this is not a problem either! You order (where you get towels) an electric car, we called it CAR. and you are taken to the beach of the Garden Sea View Hotel without any problems, this trip takes up to 3 minutes and does not worsen the rest in any way. These hotels have one owner, so you can easily use the infrastructure of any hotel, this also includes the Zain Hotel. Our hotel is the first (away from the city). then "Zine" and the next "Garden Sea View". In the morning there were problems with sunbeds on the beach, it was especially infuriating that they would just put a panama hat or a T-shirt on it and not appear until lunch or until the evening ((((but by lunchtime people go to their rooms, and we calmly found sunbeds for ourselves. The sea is clean until lunch... and then all the dirt appears and it's better to swim in the pool. There are 2 cafes on the beach with normal prices. You can eat for one person for 150 baht (rubles) and overeat! There is also a massage house and it is not necessary to go looking for them along the streets, the prices are nothing are different.
In the evening, fun begins!! ! You can leave the hotel for the city, order a tuk tuk through the security guard and for 150 baht (rubles) he will drive you to any place. We went out to Naklua Street (5min walk from the hotel). calmly caught tuk tuk and left for 10 baht (rubles) per person. The city has a lot of shopping centers, economy class supermarkets and just all sorts of shops. In general, shopping here is excellent and cheap !!!!
Near the hotel there are supermarkets "Seven Eleven" and "Family Mart", the prices are identical and you can buy any products. Immediately we bought SIM cards for 135 baht (rubles) and 100 baht (rubles) remains on the account. DO NOT PURCHASE SIM CARDS FROM OPERATORS IN ANY EVENT. OVERPAY THE MONEY ALREADY 2 TIMES!!! ! THEY HAVE THEM FOR 250 THB (RUB) AND THERE WILL BE ONLY 25 THB (RUB) ON THE ACCOUNT. A TALK WITH RUSSIA COSTS 4BAT(RUB) MINUTE, SMS - 9BAT(RUB).
There is a nice cafe on the corner of the hotel, with delicious food and reasonable prices!! ! We dined either in the city or in this cafe.
From the Garden Sea View Hotel you can go to the islands (where you can swim in the clear sea) for 400 baht (rubles) per person back and forth. we went to the pier by tuk tuk and there we went to the islands on a boat for 150 baht (rubles). Of course it's great!! ! Sunbeds are paid, the closer to the sea, the more expensive (100 baht (rub) one sunbed). There are cafes, markets, scooters, tuk tuks to explore the island and all that. Prices are also reasonable for everything. In total they take to 3 islands: the first GREEN (the largest and it is public), then RED and ORANGE - the best, it is better to go here. The last ship departs at 17.30 to Pattaya.
It is better to carry dollars with you (no other currency is needed there), you exchange them for the local currency BAT. The exchanger stands approx in front of the hotel and there is also in front of the Zain Hotel, the exchange rate is constantly changing. It is better to change 50 and 100$ bills, because small bills change at the minimum rate. Thai people don't like small money
I don't even know what else to write! So, if anything, ask the answer!!!
In general, the REST WAS VERY POSITIVE AND SUPER!! ! excellent hotel. ROOMS, SERVICE STAFF AND ALL INFRASTRUCTURE!!!! ! I WILL GO TO THIS HOTEL AGAIN AND MORE AGAIN!!! ! COME AND YOU WON'T REGRET!! !
