Decent hotel soi buokhow area

[joey69]

Hi,

I'm off to pattaya again for the second time this year. I'm going with some friends who are not going for the ladies but to train in a Muay Thai camp for a week. One mate is going with his son who is 8 years old and is also training. I usually stay in the V&M terrace in soi buokhow Which is fine by me but they would rather stay in a nicer hotel but in pretty much the same area. It's got to be safe and girl friendly as I will be entertaining a lady or 2 in my short stay there.....any suggestions?

whats there budget? If you can afford it Areca Lodge.

Vogue hotels OK, top of Soi Lenkee

LK Renaisance opposite areca is also a pretty good hotel, but does depend on budget.

also nature view hotel, quite cheap

Stayed at Duanaming a few times over the last 3 years ....just before nature view on the left ...should be about 800 i think nice clean rooms , and a nice pool to boot

which gym is your friend planning to train in?

 

I havn't done any Muay Thai this trip yet, as my usual place, Golden Gym, has no trainer at the moment.

 

I might try Tony Muay Thai, but I have heard mixed reports about it.

Right across the road from v&m terrace lk royal suites

LK metrepole just on soi Diana is guest friendly, good gym and very good mid priced option....only downside is the ancient plumbing

Agree with the Areca Lodge. Nice clean hotel, pool, set back far enough from the street not to be too noisy, girl friendly and pretty central for everything.

Chaba hut resort is ok. only downside is that wifi is not working in rooms and you have to go to swimming pool or reception area.

 

Lisy price for chaba view rooms(new rooms) is 1500, but send them email and you probably get the price down to atleast 1200. Probably to 1000 since it is low season and you book multiple rooms. Ask room which has balcony facing swimming pool.

Golden Gym have a new trainer now. I was passing today, so I went in and asked.

Very close to V+M, D-Apartment, their new wing rooms are very nice and at a decent price; swimming pool on the roof top and girl friendly.

Agree with the others. Areca Lodge is a nice hotel. No lady fees, 2 pools, nice rooms and close to LK Metro. Staff are friendly and breakfast is included. I think it was about 1200baht a night

Just had a week here too and found it to be great, good pool and great staff, nice enough clean rooms, good wifi..no safe in room but good safety deposit box at reception.

My friends are training at Fairtex Muay Thai Pattaya, supposed to be good thou!

You might be better off staying at one of the Sabai places as they are much closer to Fairtex and on the baht bus route.
