we lived in Pattaya Park, not bad, you can go wherever you want by tuk-tuk, but still cut off from civilization. now I’m choosing a hotel myself, I think the Jomtien area - many shops, cafes, a cleaner beach or in the center, all the entertainment is nearby but a dirtier beach. from excursions a trip to Kwai, some island (beautiful everywhere that suits the price), Nong Nooch Park. on your own, you can even go to the island every day - from the pier for 30-40 baht, 30-40 minutes and beauty !!!! about food, you can safely eat everything, from personal experience I don’t advise you to buy shrimp on the beach in the evening, they waddle all day long, it was bad from them ((((take activated charcoal and mezim and you will love Thai cuisine))))))))

We really liked Botany Beach. Nearby you can buy all the excursions in the excellent Sasha Tour agency. The beach and sea are amazing! Read reviews.

Botani sucks. At the end of the world. Travel to the center is far. The beach is tolerable. But if you dive, look along the pier at the bottom of the garbage dump. There is nowhere to walk in the evening. Boring. In Pattaya, the sea is bad everywhere, sorry, it's more like a muddy bay, And the botani goes like a four

We liked. You're right it's on the edge. But the man asked for a beautiful beach, excursions and the sea. And not to be poisoned. We really liked the hotel itself, cleanliness and cleanliness. And two steps and the sea. We didn't dive. We saw the sea further, in the city beaches of other hotels. That's horrible. Therefore, I am sure that everyone will like Botany. And we just didn’t like walking in the center at all. This is for an amateur. Of course, if someone goes to Thailand for evening parties, then Botani does not fit in any way.

I recommend Eurostar Jomtien Beach & SPA 3* I had a rest with my family (daughter 11 years old) in late February 2010 I liked the hotel very much. Abroad for more than 10 times, so there is something to compare. The hotel is located between the Jomtien Palm Beach hotel (wall to camp) and the local "hostel". If the view of the neighboring hotel is good, if the hostel is a little annoying, but since you are only in the hotel late in the evening and early in the morning, it’s normal. The hotel staff is very friendly. The hotel has only 55 rooms, and not all of them are full, so the staff knows everyone by sight and SMILE. The hotel is family - not in terms of location, but in terms of atmosphere. The entrance to the hotel is located 30 meters from the road, crossing which you find yourself on the beach. These 30 meters from the hotel to the road are occupied by the hotel restaurant. On the beach, a sunbed under an umbrella or without an umbrella costs 30 baht for the whole day (if you don’t leave the beach), you can eat without leaving the beach, because you constantly carry food and fruits. More about the hotel: the rooms are relatively new. Plumbing worthy. The shower stall is great. Furniture and mattresses are good. The room LCD TV 82cm. , electronic safe (free of charge). The Panasonic refrigerator is small, but enough for fruit and water. Every day they bring 0.5 liters of drinking water in glass bottles

Thanks for the replies. Something is starting to clear up. We want to go with a company without children for 14 days. We are trying to organize ourselves in such a way that we can soak up the beach and see the main "miracles" of the country. We are not particularly going to hang out at night, but 2-3 trips to the show in the center, apparently, will have to be done at night. Therefore, the question arises of how to get there, I heard that a taxi in Jomtien can be a problem at night. How can this be? And further. We only take breakfast at the hotel. Are there any cafes near the hotels?

Irina103 don't want to impose my opinion, but I also don't like to spend more money than necessary. Because I went to Pattaya 5 times - in order to save money (believe me, you'd better spend this money on entertainment there than overpay for the "high" season) I can advise the following:
1.Select the travel period from 01.03. and until 01.11. (already now, if you look at hotel prices, you will see a decent spread of prices by season, for example, take a look
http://www.fargotravel.com/en/Thailand/Pattaya/4/Garden_Sea_View_Resort.html
and this is not complete info, because. in early February, some hotels will reduce their prices again...
2. Approximately the same thing happens with air travel. True, something specific can be advised if you tell me where you will be flying from.
Regarding the lack of a taxi. I didn't notice such a problem. Although, if you settle in Botany Beach - it's really very far away and it makes no sense for cars to go to hell in the middle of nowhere.
Personally, I advise you to pay attention to hotels in the northern part of Pattaya: Garden Sea View, Long Beach, ... But this is a 4-star. But there is a plus - they have their own beach (and closer to the center compared to Botani). at Garden Sea - a beach in the closed territory of the hotel.

vacationed at Garden Sea View Resort in April 2009. The only minus is that it is far from the center, you need to get there by tuk-tuk in traffic jams. And the rest - a wonderful hotel, friendly staff; the hotel is in a quiet location and is ideal for families; has its own small beach, but I advise you to take a boat to the island (very clean, sand, gorgeous warm water); we did not take dinner at the hotel, because near the hotel there are many establishments for every taste and budget; breakfast - a lot of fruit; near the hotel you can buy a variety of fruits, for lovers of Russian cuisine there are also many restaurants. In general, I really liked the rest, I still dream about Tai. P.S. see more "Cholchan"

Thank you for your replies. It's very cool that there is an opportunity to find out the opinion of the "experienced" -)). I have already fallen in love with Tai. Now to decide on excursions. We would like something basic. It is clear that elephants, crocodiles and transvestites are a must. And which temple is interesting and most accessible from Pattaya? It is still not clear where the ferry or boat goes to the islands from (where is the pier?).
There are seven of us, we fly from Rostov-on-Don (direct flights began in October 2010). I really hope the work will fly away from February 23 to March 9. So the hotel will be determined in the near future. Happy Old New Year everyone! And with the first working day (.

Temple of the Living King (Wat Yannasangwaoaram)
Excursion: a walk among the beautiful architectural structures, the path to the top of the temple along three hundred steps.
You can watch the life of the monks, and the monumental image of the Buddha on a steep cliff will provide an excellent opportunity to take cool pictures as a keepsake.

+ The Temple of Truth (PTT) is located on a secluded peninsula jutting out into the ocean, not far from the Garden Sea View Resort. The temple built of precious woods such as teak, golden teak and mahogany, they say that masters have been working on this temple for about 30 years, on the territory of the temple it will also be possible to swim with dolphins and watch the show.

If you want tours of the "burial grounds", it makes sense to take Bangkok + Pattaya. Many do not advise spending "beach" time, but we were very interested. In the first two days (Bangkok) we visited Bayok sky, the imperial palace, the Buddha temple (I don’t remember which one exactly, they are all beautiful), we went on a boat ride along the canals of Bangkok, we went around a lot, we didn’t take a guide, we were advised by locals where to go (Thai, when he saw us with a map in his hands, he stopped us, explained in Thai-English what to see, marked with a cross on the map, agreed for a tuk-tuk (40 baht came out), and when we wanted to give him money, he was even offended))
there may be temples in Pattaya itself, but not as big and famous as in Bangkok. For the first time, I advise you, the duration of the tour allows you.
from excursions I advise the river Kwai (2 days) - we liked it, we went to the islands, it is also very beautiful, but in order to save money, you can get by with the nearby ones, those to which boats sail from the pier. Pier - if you go through Volkin Street, immediately after it, the pier is impossible not to notice!
ask everything that interests you, from personal experience I know how important all the information is before the first trip))))

Yes, we are also planning Bangkok. But after the flight, I want to relax. Perhaps there is Bangkok from Pattaya? It looks like it's close on the map. (Closer than from Hurgadinsk to Cairo))). And how much on average does a ferry (boat) cost to nearby islands?
Well, perhaps, the period of accumulation of information passes into the period of digestion. Thank you!

If you look at the temples in Bangkok, take a tour + 2 days in Bangkok - cheaper. It takes about 1-1.5 hours to go there from Pattaya (an excursion from Pattaya costs from 80-100 USD, if you take a taxi 800-1000 baht one way, the rate is 1 USD = 28.5 baht).
The Temple of Truth / Truth / near the Garden Sea View Hotel, the ticket costs 500 baht.
A tour of Pattaya (Temple + Golden Buddha + long neck village) costs about 1000 baht - I liked it.
The ship to the island from the pier is 30-40 baht, the boat from the hotel is 400 baht round trip. There are also long boats like junks - I don’t know, I didn’t use / like 100-150 baht /. The pier is located in the center - as soon as you arrive you will be handed a map of the city, and you will see it there.

Yes Chalchan stop advising! There is no sea at all! It’s also on the outskirts, there’s no + that it’s not in the north, because there’s absolutely no opportunity to swim there, there’s even some kind of bad pipe next to the river that gives a runoff, by the way, Bela Vila Cabana is the same nonsense, although the hotel itself is beautiful, albeit three-ruble note, the conclusion - the north of the north is different! about Long and Sea View - the hotels and the beach and the Mork are wonderful, you can’t say anything, but they are also much more expensive and usually never burn, unlike the ones listed above!
