Pattaya/Jomtien hotel recommendations?
 

I am looking for a hotel in Pattaya or Jomtien beach that offers a balcony with sea view. I liked the Montien, which has this feature, but unfortunately does not allow "overnight guests." Would appreciate recommendations!

-- My enthusiastic & farang friend, who stays regularly at the N*W P*R*D*S* *NN, some weeks ago reserved rooms for him and for me over the next several days.
- On arrival he was told that the rooms' rates were doubled - despite the reservations' cards clearly shewing the std. rate of 599.oo.Bh.!
- He told them, in no uncertain terms, what they could go and do!
-- Of course, at this time of yr. hotels feel themselves to be in a stronger pos'n. - but that neglects PR., the world-wide reach of the i'net. and their future reservations, doesn't it? :(

So where did you stay or did you pay double? My comments below will explain my interest...

I have just stayed at a delightful guest house in Jomiten. No view of the sea unfortunately but you could smell it! I was planning to go back for a few days in early Jan but all booked out for the whole month. Had a great time. No problem with guests and in fact there was action everywhere... If you want its URL then pm me.

- My friend reckoned that it would be a waste of both time & effort at this late stage to check-out other hotels etc. and so we shall be enjoying some of the NY's. delights of KRUNGTHEP. instead! :(
