Perhaps I will be the first on this site who wrote a review about this hotel. And this is not surprising, because the hotel is new. This is its main advantage. Really 3 stars as advertised. Additionally, its convenient location pleases - the very center of Pattaya right next to the Central Festival, which is sure to be visited by almost everyone. The management of the hotel is the same as that of another large shopping center "Mike shoping mall", which is very close. Also near their city police station. All taxi drivers and motorbikers know it and Central Festival, so it's very easy to get there. Very clean and new rooms. We lived in a Superior room (the easiest option) so there was a view of the Central Festival, but if you want a room with a view of the indoor pool and with a balcony, then you have to pay extra and significantly, but this is already a matter of taste and habits. The room has a hair dryer, Sony Bravia LCD TV (which you will agree is a rarity for any hotel), a shower separated from the toilet by a plastic partition. Cleaning was done and towels changed every day. They left 20 baht for tea. Buffet on the 2nd floor. Typical breakfasts, you can’t boast of variety, but they made good omelettes and, to our joy, there was even mashed potatoes on the day of departure. Breakfast from 6 to 10 am. The staff is diligent, but they do not speak Russian at all, English, like all Thais, is warped. There is free Wi-fi, an access code can be obtained at the reception, an Internet zone - 30 baht for half an hour. Pool and beach towels are provided at the reception. Its main disadvantage is the contingent. A mixture of different peoples. Before that, I thought that the worst thing for a vacation is the presence of ours, in fact, the worst of ours is the Chinese, of whom there are always many and who are very noisy. The buffet is quickly clogged and the food is attacked like locusts, but the staff restocks pretty quickly. Very pleased with the pool. Quite deep, the water level in some places above the head. Pattaya itself did not disappoint, but it did not cause much enthusiasm either. Indeed, that on the city beach, that on Jomtien, normal people do not swim. Therefore, I see no reason to follow the tales of tour operators and overpay for Jomtien. Everything is more expensive in this area and you still have to get out to the center. Everyone goes to the islands. Closest Koh Larn with several beaches. From the pier, boats go there according to a regular schedule. Price one way - 20 baht. If you don't want to wait or want to get there faster, you can take a speedboat for 150 baht. Pattaya is certainly not for a quiet family holiday. This is the place for nightlife lovers. Here it seethes and you can get everything for money. Also a convenient point for all kinds of excursions. I especially liked it on the River Kwai (but this is a separate story and a separate review). So for a holiday in the center of Pattaya, this is the best hotel with a price-quality ratio. And do not lose towels - a fine of 500 baht! : )
