The Lord Nelson

Has anyone checked this place out? Would appreciate any info. I have previously stayed in vacinity of soi 13 so I am also wondering if there are any advantages/disadvantages to staying on soi 6.

 

 

Thanks.

I have not actually stayed there, but have checked the rooms out which are very nice. Was told the cost was 700 baht per night.

 

This place is brand new, large rooms with king sized beds, large TV with DVD player and a nice bar downstairs.

 

Use it as a drinking hole a couple of nights a week.

Raymond the manager used to work at G-Spot before they closed, and the bar is not a hostess bar, although most of the staff are ex G-Spot service girls. A good friendly place to stay in the middle of the action.

 

Same management as the Queen Victoria just down the Soi.

I was by there in Sept 2004 and saw the rooms, they were nice, give it a try...

I like starting the day off with a good BJ and soi 6 is the place to get it. Quuen Vic serves good food.

Don't think I'd want to stay on Soi 6 probably for the same reasons as I would rather avoid the hotels on Sois 7 & 8.

[Greg_B 306]

I've stayed on Soi 6 the last 2 times I've been to Pattaya. I can get to the Queen Vic about 4 different ways, so avoiding the BJ Bars can be done easily. But at times I like to visit those bars at the end of a night out, so it is nice to be close to the hotel.

 

The Soi has currency exchange, laundry, places to eat, 7-11 near by, so I like what it has to offer. Really enjoy staying at the QV and being on the balcony to watch the TG's...

Hi,

Got to agreed with you Greg. the Q.V. is exellent good staff, rooms, food and location The L. Nelson is based an the same style rooms as the Q.V. good size rooms and BIG beds, The currency exchange on Soi 6, requires your passport for your first transaction and then all you have to do is bring the receipt you got from this for any other trans.. I've stayed there for the passed 3 years for 6 to 8 week at a time and have no complaints, i've booked 6 months next year and was quoted 13,500B per month for a superior room. Considering what a flat would have cost and all the extras you have to pay for I consider this a good deal. Fair enough they have no pool or lift but I consider this a minor thing.

Cheers Doug.

I have also stayed in one of the QV's flats on Soi 6 (posted a review), and I really enjoyed it. I stayed there in July while they were building The Lord Nelson. From what Bert (QV manager) and Vic (owner) was telling me, it would be like the QV, but with a maritime theme. Also, I don't think they have a restaurant there, but the QV is literally seconds down the street. Also, soi 6 is fun to watch from your balcony, and they both have back alley entrances if you want to avoid attention. Easy to hop on a baht bus and go down to Walking Street, Soi 7&8, or Pattayaland. Good location.

Am staying at the Lord Nelson right now and for the next 12 days. Nice big, clean rooms. Good view of the soi also. Was expecting more bar noise, but getting to bed at 4 am haven't noticed any. Later SB

Has the Lord Nelson got balconies?

[saigon_butterfly 1]

I haven't seen any balconies, but they may have some on the floors above me. Greg would probably know better than I. Believe he's toured the whole place. Later, SB

[saigon_butterfly 1]

Just took a look at rooms 8 and 9 and they both have nice size balconies overlooking soi 6. The only drawback is that you have to climb 3 flights of stairs.

Later, SB

[Greg_B 306]

I'll agree the stairs can get to be a pain in the arse, but I like being able to come in the front door and go out the backdoor {when needed}. The view from the balcony is very nice, as I did tour Room #9 in Sept 2004. I really liked it as the room was big enough and the balcony had a great view.

 

Fun thing to do, would be to visit a BJ Bar and go out the alley to your room at the Lord Nelson. Since from memory, you have to go outside the bar {Kiss Bar} to get to the ST room...

 

 

I did notice a DVD player in the room also and it had a ceiling fan over the King size bed. I did put it in the Hotel Review section, with some pictures.
