Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is ideally located, near various dining options and in a bustling area of Pattaya. The rooms are comfortable and come with daily cleaned towels and a nice bathroom, but the service can be unhelpful with frequent 'no' responses. The dining experience includes hot sandwiches and the facilities are satisfactory, though there are some service drawbacks.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were clean and the breakfast was good, but the service was lacking. The location was convenient, but there were some facilities that could be improved.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nice and clean, although not very suitable for families with kids. Daily towel service was a plus, and the balcony, while hot, offered a nice view. The hotel is in a great location, especially for those looking to experience the vibrant party area of Pattaya. However, the service could be more responsive to guest requests.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were comfortable enough but not the best for families with children. The small balcony was a nice touch.

The location was convenient, near various dining places and shopping malls. The dining experience was satisfactory with a selection of local cold cuts. Overall, an average experience with room for improvement.

However, the service could have been more accommodating. The dining experience was delightful, offering authentic dishes. Overall, a good value for money stay.
The hotel is ideally located near various dining places and shopping malls. The rooms are comfortable and come with a small balcony, but the noisy AC unit could be bothersome. The service was lacking as staff seemed unable to assist with requests. The location is central, offering easy access to different areas of the town. The dining experience includes globally inspired dishes. Though the price may be a bit high for some amenities, the cleanliness and comfort are satisfactory.
The hotel is ideally located between the nightlife of Soi Buakhao and the shopping on 2nd Road. The rooms are equipped with modern amenities, but the noisy AC unit can be bothersome. The staff, from the gardener to the manager, seemed unable to provide satisfactory answers or fulfill requests. The pricing might be on the expensive side compared to similar hotels, but the spotless rooms with a balcony offer a convenient stay.
