The initial impression from staff was not good. No nice smile. No enthusiasm. Not happy.. O.k. everyone has a bad day... On to the room.
I stayed in a Mini Suite with my partner and first impressions were WOW, am I in the wrong room? The Mini Suite has plenty of room to move and is appointed better than many hotels I have stayed at paying 4 times the price..
Clean:
Very, from the bed to the bath, I was very happy with the cleanliness.
View:
Excellent. From my room on the 9th floor, I had beautifull vista's of the beach and city.
Bed:
Comfortable and HUGE!!
Bathroom:
Excellent.
Having checked in and been more than impressed with the room, I headed for the Pool. Being on the roof of the Hotel, the pool didn't offer much shade, and when I was looking for a cool beer, staff were hard to find. That said, once again the view was good, with full 360 degree views of the City and Beach.
Being away from Central Pattaya was a welcome relief from the all night Doof Doof of the clubs and bars.
But a short Baht bus ride (10 baht and 5 minutes) was all it took and you were in the heart of the action any time you felt the urge.
The food outlets surrounding the hotel were also very good, offering cheap and very tasty alternatives to room service.
Overall?
Fantastic rooms, no security issues, well recommended.
Tip.
Book online through an external site. I saved 60% on what my friend paid who stayed at the same time, but he booked at reception.
