PBR has a taxi service that will take you to within a 5 minute walk of Walking Street. You can use the same service to get back but I found it easier to take a baht bus, get off at The Avenue and walk to the hotel (about 5 minutes). You can walk to LK Metro but I wouldn't recommend it at night as the alley is quite dark. If you talk to the taxi driver nicely he may take you there.

Walking St on foot is a long walk (take about 25-30 minutes, maybe a little bit more depending how fit you are or how many times you stop on the way). LK Metro is a lot closer, just cut through Areca Lodge and you're pretty much there, less than 10 minutes.

Public transport is not brilliant to these area, as the previous poster said PBR has a tuk tuk service, (I never used it though) but if coming back from Walking St, take songthaew to The Avenue then cut through to the back. Public transport to LK Metro, songthaew to soi Diana, then walk up, or get one from the end of soi Bukhao (Tuk.com end) right to soi LK....less walking!

If you don't like walking then it would be best to stay some place closer. But if you like to look around and take a nice walk before you go to Walking Street then its good. I always enjoyed walking through Avenue mall and looking at the side walk vendors.

PBR is well located IMO. Quick walk down to beach Rd, grab a baht bus to walking St. Grab a few girls and head back. Directly, to the door will costs you 100-200 baht.

PBR does offer a service. Never used it. Would imagine going there would be fine. But I would not have the patience to wait to be picked up. I suppose you could ring before you left the bar and the PBR bus will be waiting.

 

My only complaint is that the pool closes at 6.30 p.m. !!!.

I guess i depends if you are a walker or not? LK Metro is about 10 mins max either through the alley next to 7-11 or down second road to Soi Dianna. PBR's baht bus or tuktuk will drop you off on Soi Song then it is a quick walk to WS

I've been using the PBR since it opened. Trust me, if you call the (free) tuk-tuk from the end of soi 15/2nd Rd it will be there in less than 5 minutes, normally more like 3 - at any time of night.

Yes, I would agree that PBR is great location, staff is great and they have no problem sending the tuk tuk outside normal area. Walking to soi Diana or anywhere on Soi Buakhow is a breeze. Walking Street is a bit of a pain unless you want to take a motorcycle taxi, in which case they are just outside PBR. I use them regularly and they are not too crazy, never had a bad experience on them.

I really enjoyed my walks from Pattaya Bay Resort to Walking Street, probably a good way to keep tabs on where to pick up girls, I would get half of my short time girls during these walks
