If you’re on a budget, need a nice place to stay and that is close to the action. I would recommend Apex Hotel on 2nd road. It is only 600b a night. I personally like be back section on the hotel. All the rooms in the back have marble floors. Now, there are hotels and guesthouses that are cheaper, but they are not as nice looking on the inside as Apex Hotel.

I really nice place to stay if you have the money is LK Metropole Hotel in Central Pattaya. You can get a 1 bedroom suite for the same price you can get a basic room at the Hard Rock Hotel (Trust me! You're just paying for the name at the HRH). If I remember correctly at LK Metropole Hotel the 1 bedroom suite is around 4000 baht a night.

Rates run bewteen 3000 for a Studio Room to 12000 baht for the Versace Suite. Internet rates are probly cheaper.

The Penthouse Hotel all the way BABY!!!

The Penthouse Hotel all the way BABY!!!

Holy Crap OH3MTA3!! That Hotel Looks Like It Would Be Awesome. I check out thier website and they have a Freakin' "Sex Swing" and Stripper Poll in the rooms...OMG!! Im going to Pattaya!!!

Any of the Sawadee Hotels:

Sawasdee Pattaya

Sawasdee Sabai

Sawasdee Sea

Sawasdee Siam

Sawasdee Sunshine

I have stayed in almost all of them at one time or another and have never had any problems.

But, I have heard a few people say that at the Sawasdee Sunshine Hotel. That they had paid for several nights and decided to check out early for whatever reason and was not given thier money back for the remaining nights.

I would like to add. The Flipper Lodge is by far the absolute best hotel in Pattaya and for the price and location and class of this hotel it can’t be beat.

I will have to say. If you’re on a budget, need a nice place to stay and that is close to the action. I would recommend Apex Hotel on 2nd road. It is only 500b a night. I personally like be back section on the hotel. All the rooms in the back have marble floors. Now, there are hotels and guesthouses that are cheaper, but they are not as nice looking on the inside as Apex Hotel.

I love the Apex Hotel...I always stay there. They have a cool ass lobby to only be 600b a night place.

I always found the Sawadee group a bit shabby, never stayed at the Apex but heard its nice, I used to stay in Hotels but as I am out here most of the time now I stay at the Canterbury Tales Cafe & Bookshop, easy to search as they have a website and can book online, they have some big rooms, the one I am in is 44 square meters and good facilities, free wifi, separate lounge and bedroom, balcony, all day English breakfast etc and a great bookshop. 

I too quit staying in hotels. I always would rent a condo. I would rent a place at Nirun Condo. I had a studio apartment for around 5000b a month.

Nirun Condo is a friendly, quiet, central located. About half of the residents are farangs. The location is about 400 meter from Carrefour on Central Road from where you can catch a baht bus anytime, day or night. The complex has two swimming pools, two tree-lined streets with shops (restaurants, convenience stores, internet cafe, laundry, bars, gym, travel agencies, hair dressers, massage). There is 24/7 security and plenty of parking for both cars and bikes.
