Where to stay with your Pattaya Girl

Over the past few years Pattaya has become a tourist mecca of international repute.  This lively beachfront town is located less than a two-hour drive south of Bangkok.  The Pattaya Beach entertainment area is where you’ll find the Pattaya girls.  This area encompasses approximately 3 miles of beachfront.  To the south is the upscale Jomtien Beach, where you’ll find the exclusive world-class resorts, golfing, and 6 miles of white sand beach.  Slightly to the north of Pattaya is Wong Phrachan Beach with its soft sand and safe swimming.

Most tourists arrive between December and March.  It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find accommodations during this peak period and you should definitely book your room in advance of your departure.  Otherwise, you’ll be at the mercy of Pattaya’s notorious taxi drivers and other such touts.  If you’re not exactly sure where you want to stay, book of room at one of our recommended hotels for just a couple of days.  That way you can arrive safe and sound and then have a look around town before making your final decision.

The main Pattaya beach offers all of the usual recreational amenities such as jet skiing, parasailing, scuba diving expeditions, and sun loungers.  It’s also right next to the main nightlife entertainment area where the famous Pattaya girls can be found in abundance.

Needless to say, there are accommodations in Pattaya to suit every budget.  The starting point for a basic comfortable room with nothing but a fan is around 500 baht, if you’re budget minded.

Very nice air-conditioned rooms can be had in a three or four star hotel for between 1000 baht and 2000 baht.  This class of hotel is where most of the guys stay, who are on a mission to meet the girls of Pattaya.  Many nice hotels in this price range can be found within walking distance of the beer bars, go-go clubs, and restaurants of the Pattaya entertainment district.

If you’re looking for something more upscale, you’ll want to stay south of Pattaya on Jomtien beach.  The world-class resorts of Jomtien charge world-class prices, and can be a little touchy when it comes to bringing a girl from Pattaya back to your room.  Keep in mind that many families stay in the Jomtien area, so you should be more discreet about your comings and goings if you choose to stay in that area.

If this is your first visit to Pattaya.  It’s more fun to stay right in central Pattaya.  All of the hotels in this area will be fully aware that you intend to bring Pattaya girls back to your room.  In many such hotels, breakfast for two is complementary in the mornings.

There are some hotels, especially the top end ones, that will charge you extra when you bring a girl from Pattaya entertainment district back with you.  The extra charge ranges from 300 to 500 baht.  You should take this into consideration before you decide to stay in one of these hotels.  We don’t recommend them.  It can make for an awkward situation late at night.

You should feel completely comfortable bringing your new Pattaya girlfriend back to your room.  We have checked out the hotels for you and only recommend a hotel where bringing back a companion is a completely normal occurrence.  That way you can save yourself the embarrassment.

Hotel safety: all of our recommended hotels offer in-room safes of the variety where you can set the combination yourself.  If you happen to be traveling with your laptop, you can leave it at the front desk when you are out on the town.

As an added security benefit.  Most hotels will take down your Thai companion’s ID information.  Some of the better places go to the extra step and actually keep the girl’s ID document, while she’s staying with you.  This is a basic security measure and something that you should be looking for when choosing accommodation.

Our recommended hotels do not charge extra for unregistered guests.
