A good point lolli, my friends have rooms on the 5th floor and are also paying the seaview rate, however, their view is rather obscured by a few big palms and the aa hotel on the right! But they do have a partial seaview. The view from the 7th, 8th & 9th i think are worth the money and i did confirm by email that i definately wanted 7th floor or higher- if you reconfirm ur preference when checking in then i am sure u can get what u want. But they do seem to have high occupancy rates in the seaview rooms, even in low season - they are full this coming weekend. If you are staying a s

Hi Lolli, I am staying at the Sandy right now in a seaview room on the 7th floor. The room cost 1400 per night as i have a membership card, although some may find this pricey for a hotel that doesn't include breakfast, has no in-room safe as well as slightly dated decor. However, the view is wonderful with full seaviews and a supersize balcony with furniture to enjoy it from, the staff friendly efficient & very accomodating to regulars & the free wifi works a treat too! Also, a soi13 location is by far the most convenient i've stayed at in pats - with access to baht buses in b

Its in the middle of nowhere!!! Seaview??? its near 3rd road. Definately not the place for a newbie or for anyone planning on walking back pissed late at night. And the furnishings look cheap.

Rooms are dirty & everything is overpriced. Sure its a bit of fantasy but not a viable place to stay in my book. But hey, each to his own!

Yep, why faff around in Abu Dhabi when you can fly direct! The only negative with Thai is the lack of seat back entertainment - when are they gonna sort that out?

Best of Luck Amp!!!! Hope you get a swift all clear and are soon back in the kingdom enjoying the hospitality of strangers!

17 days till my 9th visit in 3 years! anyone else around between 19th June - 11th July???

Returning to LOS on June 18th. Have always travelled on Thai except for one instance when I went on Emirates but much prefer to go direct! Was gonna book EVA but it seems that the leg room is a real issue, I'm 6'3 and every inch matters! Not only is Eva an inch less than Thai at 33", but I read some reviews stating that due to the box containing life vests, even this 33" is severly compramised! Add that to the fact that the food sucks I decided to stay with Thai. The current price on www.westeasttravel.com is £446 incl. which I think is a real bargaiN!

Hi everyone, On my next visit, planning on spending a few days in bangers in addition to pattaya. Came across this hotel- http://www.unicograndesukhumvit.com/ and it seems great! with fantastically low intorductory rates for the standard of accomodation offered. My only reservation is regarding it's girl friendliness- has anyone stayed there who can confirm that it is g/f? many thanks in advance for any responses / views / opinions!

Fellow Mongers, Never stayed at Sabai Inn so unable to comment on their facilities however, have stayed at BJ Lodge. Bj is well located on soi 3 just a hundred yardsw from beach road. The soi itself is quiet and has a handfull of nice eateries, a laundry shop & an internet shop - noise from bars is minimal. Rooms are priced at 900b for a standard & 1000b for the seaview. Take the seaview & ask for a high floor. The hotel has a small swimming pool & a medium priced restaurant though the food is mediocre at best. The rooms themselves are small but well equipped and t

Yo Alf, perhaps you are talking about: Inn of the Golden Crab; Ma maison; Inn House; AA residence; or perhaps The Lek Hotel out of the above choices, I would choose AA or as you said the Dynasty ain't bad- I like their walk in showers big enough for 2 or 3 or 1 fat yank!!!

Hey Scoot, It seems that the British manager is most pleasant when everything is running smoothly. However, as soon as he encounters any problems, he morphs into a Basil Fawlty type charachter who blames everything & everyone else rather than taking responsibility for his establishment! I never had a problem with noise at Sandy Spring. Inside the rooms, especially if you are on a high floor, you won't hear a thing from outside. However, if you are on your balcony, then there may be some noise from a few of the bars located on beach road. But this is more minor background noise rat

Hi Everyone, Just returned from a most enjoyable trip to the promised land! Spent in total, a month in LOS with 10 days of that in Pattaya. I have been to Pattaya many times & tried many different hotels but for me, soi 13 is the most convenient location to stay. On this occassion, I booked Whitehouse Condotel in advance ( no deposit required, email confirmation sent) for the entire 10 days & I would like to provide the members with a full critique of this newish hotel.... WhiteHouse Condotel ------------------------- I arrived at the hotel to be greeted by a cacopho
