P Plus hotel is in a great location and for the price its superb, its also quiet when it needs to be after 12.
Full credit to you Daz for these little hotel nugget videos....I appreciate the effort it takes to go around and take videos and then edit and upload. Certainly opened my eyes to the choice available in these budget places. Love the pools in these places, always a nice place to sit around with a cool drink. Thanks again...keep up the good work.
Glad you like them!
She was a barrel of fun on reception in the 2nd hotel 😂😂😂
Hotel looks fine
Please refer to her as her majesty 😂😂😂😂
I stayed at P-Plus for a month back in February.
As others pointed out it is cheaper to book online then walk-up.
It was about 500 / night back then.
PROs…
Great location and there are two exits out.
One puts you right at “Rock Factory” on Baukhao and the other at “Excite Club” on Chaloem.
Pool was good.
The Gym is very good.
Staff friendly and helpful.
Lots of places to eat and do laundry nearby.
Places of note for an easy walk are “Kings Club”, “The Triangle Bar”, “TT Currency Exchange”, “Cheap Charlie’s”, “The Back Yard”, “Bronx Pizza”.
Possible CONs…
“Sky Music” is very near and they have live open air bands with the speakers aimed at the Hotel.
If you like to go to bed, early be mindful of the noise.
Elevator bell is on the noisy side and could be annoying if your room is near it.
Wi-Fi is good speed wise but did cut me off once or twice thus I need to log back in.
There was a slight smell in the bathroom on a few days; I think the Hotel could have drainage issues?
The shower drain did need to cleaned / unclogged twice during my visit.
For me, I just went to Big-C and got some air freshener.
The cleaning of the shower drain was addressed as soon as I reported it.
Safe is small but secure.
Walls are on the thin side if someone in the other room is having a party or ringing the doorbell to get in.
Small balcony, nothing more than a place to stand.
==== = = = = = = =
I WOULD stay at P-Plus again if the price point is around 500 to 600 and I could get a room near the middle of the floor away from the Elevator and open hall windows.
Excellent review and a comment well worth reading.
Thanks for the excellent review. You're gem Zeee
Stayed for a week at P Plus last year.
Quality bed, good bathroom.
Nice size pool.
Easily the best hotel gym I've seen in Pattaya.
What a knock out working the reception desk at the last hotel! And a very nice attitude, much better than the previous hotel where she just told you to go have a look yourself. For 400 baht per night, very good value, but despite the less friendly disposition of the receptionist at the 2nd hotel, for 500 a night, that would be my preference, if only due to the tucked away location and away from much of the nighttime bar noise. A short walk to restaurants and my mates bar, Red Bull, on Lengkee.
Until the Chinese tourist buses return to Vogue hotel, that is
I have stayed 3x at p plus
Rooms are really run down,built cheaply and showing their age.also water in shower never gets hot.
Pool is not clean and generally green due to a chemical imbalance
Gym is excellent but dirty
It’s worth it if you can get it sub 500 a night but not suitable for a long stay,it would be depressing.
Hi onlyscott, good to read your comment! Good to get your opinion after having been there 3times. Considering your description of pplus now...I take it out of my hotels potentially worthwhile for staying on Soi buakhao area.
Thanks and greetings
Uli
The lady on the front desk at the second hotel was your classic example of disinterested Thai 'service'.
Yes i think she forgot its the land of smiles lol
All good value, depending what you are looking for. All a great location. I have used the Mercure on Buakhow 15 a couple of times and managed 1200THB p/n on a longer stay and leveraging the lack of Chinese in Feb 2020. That's a nice place, but they are not answering. Maybe you could pay them a visit? The biggest barrier for short and near term visits is the air fare. I have 3 weeks spare in Oct, but the air fare spoils it.
The lady at the reception at the second hotel did not deserve a thank you for it's help!
I think she is over worked.
Class video as usual. Keep up the good work, offering us all up to date info. Your an absolute legend.
Much appreciated
I stayed 1 night at the P Plus hotel in March. It's a really good room there. I book again 1 night already for this coming November. Really good location, near Soi Bukhao area
Is it quiet there John?
@@pete8582 Yes but close to everything. Like bars and restaurants.
@@johnhorne1161 - Thanks John.
thank you very much for the visit in the hotels soi buakhao !
Stayed at P Plus just before lockdown 19/20 , noisiest place I’ve ever stayed, almost impossible to get a nights sleep , no blackout curtains plus heavy metal and other music absolutely blaring till 3am . Breakfast dreadful , I checked out a week earlier than what I’d paid for. Pity because it’s got a good gym , nice pool and terrific position.
Another helpful video, thanks Daz. As a few people have point out in the comments P Plus also seems to have a very good gym, which is exactly what I am looking for when I come in Nov.
Another good video that helps us plan our next trip 🙂
You would think the lady at JP could be a little interested after 2 years no customers you couldn't pay me to stay there why did you thank her for what help what help ?
She did grunt a bit must have been a terrible strain for her 😆😅😂🤣
Not everyone enjoys someone going up to them at work asking them questions with a video pointed at them I wouldn’t, great channel tho
"Nan" can be a little subdued sometimes, but having known her for quite a while, I can confirm that behind the attitude she showed in the vid, there really is a nice girl 👧
@@rishiout5233 I think the camera might be discreetly tucked away in his shoulder bag (based on mirror reflection in one earlier tour).
Thanks for showing J&P court the price have gone down for room before covid 950 baht and yes yes the staff there could be a bit more friendlier and smile more 😂 but excellent location and very cheap for what u get 👍 and there is a lot bigger room there facing the pool u must of mist. Them easy done as there a lot f rooms there
The price has gone up again and it's being refurbished.
Thanks....a suggestion for the future is to review a two bedroom apartment (with separate ensuites). You can find this at The Golden Crab on Soi 13 off Beach Rd. Perfect for guys travelling together.
Have you ever reviewed Sutis Court it’s only around 700tbh a night, used to stay there, it has a great jacuzzi and swimming pool is ok, different prices for rooms, perfect location and restaurant, yes the reception girls can be a bit grumpy, but if your polite they will be too! Also there’s a new hotel that’s almost ready called De Bua next to the hospital, it looks a little old school from the outside, I’am sure it will be popular when it opens!
I used to stay there in the old part at the back, nice rooms. Yorkshire George used to be part of the furniture , passed away now.
can get a cheaper walk in price at Sutus.
Thank you for your video ,there help me a lot, I’m French , I come to Pattaya on 26 October for 2 months,
400 baht a night was a really good deal, a room with basic amenities is all you really need
Yep at the end of the day it's only 4 walls
Was that the one that was opposite Tree 🎄 town.....BY G ?
The Promonee is no more!
Great stuff again👍
Maybe you should not mention to the staff that the rooms are cheap or a great price though they might start thinking 🤔
I always pretend the price is a bit steep 😂🤣
Price very expensive Na !
Some more great info. That last one was a mongers dream. Cheap and so close to the action, you could almost smell it. 😊
Thank you , always helpful information ! Enjoy ...
I'm staying at The JP this season, thanks for the leg work these reviews are gold.
Everyone has a bad day 🙂
"I had a great stayed at The JP for 6 days. Kung's Restaurant a 2 minute walk has the best breakfast in Pattaya." Highly recommend ⭐
Another great video Daz , but that lady at JP her attitude was terrible, but price was cheap . I agree with another subscriber, don’t tell them it’s cheap , because they will think about upping the price, anyway great video , keep going
Great video as always Daz...But!...i have to be honest.... I've stayed at the P Plus Hotel and when i stay their i paid $22 usd per day. The rooms are out dated, the cleaning service is not good at all. I even had to ask the cleaning lady if she can mop the floor and when it came to sweeping the room, believe me it was like they never swept at all. I had asked for a King Size Bed and what i got was 2 Twins put together and a 1 inch bed cover over the 2 twins, i usually woke up in between, felt like i was in a ditch...one day i got wet in the rain and i caught a small cold and they thought i had Covid!...I've gotten both my shots and both the booster shots, believe me i didn't have Covid and they told the cleaning lady not to clean my room anymore. About the only great thing they have is the Fitness Gym, all the machines you can think of in the gym awesome. Never ate at the Restaurant so can't say much about it. Not even going to mention what happened with the A/C unit...but i will Never stay their again...now this is my Opinion of my stay...others may think differently....
Love your work, Daz.
I have never stayed at the Promanee, however I used to drink there in the daytime with a load of ex-pats used to have a big seating area at the entrance and large bottles of beer 60 to 65 baht with a massage parlour next door on the right.
I have stayed in Walk-in mansion at the top of soi new plaza on soi bukow, great staff very friendly was 10,000 a month if you had a balcony it was 12,000.
Yes the old walk in mansion was where I always stayed for many years & monthly is always the way to go, they would even split the monthly option into two - two week stays & that's what I used to do. I would book online in the UK & pay on arrival, two weeks stay them I was off to Cambodia for 3 - 4 months then RTN for the second two weeks stay before flying out. Dental treatment was my aim the first stay & buying stuff on the second stay because Pattaya has almost everything from around Thailand etc.
thank you for these reviews Daz, it may look like i'm being negative but i'm not, i'm imagining being the "friend" that's arriving next month . the third one was a great place for the price and extremely clean and the lady on the reception had a lovely attitude and smile.....both of which cost nothing but are worth a million!!! the second place..........oh dear, no chance, go look yourself, absolutely no interest in being polite or even looking up from what had her attention (probably facebook!!) on top of all that the pool looked filthy, you could hardly see the bottom! the first place was pleasant enough nice and clean too, but i think a little bit small and i like to sit on the balcony last thing. i used to drink in a small bar a couple of doors down from excite club so watched this place being built
loving it
First hotel and 3rd hotel are great choices Daz, lady on last hotel was beautiful and friendly. Middle hotel I wouldn't even consider it.
Great video and a decent selection of hotels. The P Plus rooms are too small and If this hotel receives coach loads of Chinese tourists as mentioned in one of the comments, then it needs to be avoided. What a lovely receptionist in the small hotel on Soi Buakhao!
Thanks David. Another informative video
I'm actually stay at p plus this month for a week! I picked it up on Agoda for £12 a night so even less than the walk up rate
@@ua1514 - What did you not like at this place? Is it noisy? Are the staff unfriendly? Is the food of a poor standard?
@@ua1514 Many thanks for your reply. I respect your judgement and based on what you have said, I will be avoiding this place.
@@ua1514 Thanks. I did check out that hotel as it has a good reputation but they were fully booked for my dates, as was LK President. I'm in Pattaya for 2 months from early December to early February and usually stay in a condo at the back of The Avenue Shopping Mall in Soi 15 but they have been laying pipes in that area for some time now and it's like a dirt track all the way down Soi 15. I've been offered a condo at The Urban where I've stayed before but if the construction work is still going on, the Soi will no doubt remain in a poor state for pedestrians. I'm now considering a condo at Urban Attitude off 3rd Road which looks really nice, although they are smaller than the apartments in which I've stayed in previous years. Best wishes.
@@ua1514 I've actually stayed there last time I was in Pattaya 3 years ago! Tbf I found it to be ok, the rooms were a bit on the small size, but apart from that I found it quite acceptable, and at £12 a night, with the facilities they have it's a lot better value than a guesthouse! I'm only booked in for the first 7nights, then it's all change, as I usually like to stay at 4-5 places during my stay
Great Video Daz, I was staying in Soi 21 when they were building that Pee place, noisy buggers.
Great intel mate, great comparisons. Coming in January
Very nice.
Thank you 👍👍
Third place very nice n friendly lady staff. That is more valuable...🙏🙏🙏🙏
WOW the woman from JP must be having a bad day she couldn't be bothered dealing with you 🤣🤣🤣
Good video, its really alot good price for good value of money in Thailand. Amazing to travel and live there coupple of months or more 🤩🤩
Most of the cheap rooms are cheap because there in the middle of bars etc. If you like being up until the early hours of the morning they will be ideal.
Yep ya can't beat getting woken up at 4 o'clock 😡
I stay at J&P every trip, for the price paid its a bargain, Daz didn't mention that there is a lift, as far as I know they are not on Agoda or any agency, they deal cash only and will not accept booking without 1000thb deposit
Thanks. Great information
J&P is nice and cheap,Even had an elevator when I stayed there.
Cheers Daz, another really useful video. I've managed to get a room at Vogue (next to the second hotel on this video) for 525 Baht/night for 4 nights in early March on one of the Booking sites. Looks to be a really good deal, but if it's not.....I'm heading to see the lady in Hotel 3 with some flowers and a smile :)
Absolutely ! The attitude of the last receptionist made my stomach hurts !!! I wouldn't even stay there for free and have to see her face every day , No way . Now I'm retired from the Customer service industry some people just don't get it and this last place even though it small and if I had to choose between the 2 places, Well it would be this place because the 1st impressions ( Smiling face ) can go a long way !
That's why I fell in love with The old Sabai wing Hotel ! I was there in again in May and very sad to see it's no longer there " man" they had great rates nice rooms and a great breakfast , I forgot to mention great location ...
She had a lovely smile. The second girl looked super annoyed the entire time.
you've not been paying attention.Daz reviewed 3 hotels.The last lady was very cheery but the lady is over worked or married or something.Its a good hotel though.
@@stephentyas4698 Had to laugh i checked the place last week,she was still stressed or miserable but i have left a deposit for june...it has got good reviews off regulars and the place is good for the price...
The rooms look clean. The price is unbelievable.
Good one Daz,
Great video mate. It has helped me a lot. I'm coming back to Thailand in February. Jp hotel will save me a lot of money. 🤑🤑💰💰💴💵
Damn! It’s gonna go over 2 Billion by the time the next drawing comes
good information Video, i like ,
Thanks buddy 👍
You can’t grumble at those prices. The second lady will drive potential customers away with that energy.
Hello Daz good selection there of 3 hotels shame the lady at reception of JP Court was not over friendly out of the 3 i would probably stay there lets hope she cheers up Many thanks
You know the old prommanee house is a good bet when the girl is soo nice and u see the group of old geezers (punters) sitting in the front
I frickin' love your stuff!!!!
Great video.
Hi Daz, I see you met the worst receptionist at JP Court, all the other staff are lovely people.
Very good video like always, thank you.
So nice of you
Is the P Plus hotel one of those with lots of noisy coaches with their engines running, waiting out front?
P Plus is good value with Chinese package tourists absent. Before Covid the parking lot was full of big coach buses. Endless running and stinking, whistling guards, all the noise in front of the pool.
Great info Daz as usual.
Glad you enjoyed it
JP Court was undergoing a refurb in July.
I always wonderd were that jp court was.I had freinds 8 years ago, dozen of them stayed for 3 months of a time.2 times a year.for at least 3 years running.They loved it there.They all stopped comming thailand.
It would be nice to know if the hotel has an elevator, some of us would like not to deal with stairs.
I believe any hotel above 4 floors has to have elevator. Pretty sure if they have one he will use it just like us..My legs don't do stairs anymore , defo a high up with elevator guy..
Daz ,can you do a video literally opposite p plus hotel , it’s called sc villa if it’s open, before covid rooms were 14.000 bht a month including everything, great bed , and shower, would love to know if it’s open
@@jonoda894 cheers but they are not replying to my line messages, good to know bud thanks
Hi, thank you for this vidéo, now we can come same before covid. Last 3 years i was doing same you,but not vidéo. Just take 1 night in hôtel and visit many hôtel in pattaya. And test bed if not too hard , look price and situation.
Price at P Plus is better than online, since online is still calculating the old exchange rate.
Nice vid. Curious how the safety box works....are they really secure and anchored well?
You put in your own code, usually they are anchored ok
Well I wouldn't use them TBO rather lock stuff up in my bags.
i dont liked that lady on the second hotel... but the third one was so lovely... all this hotels, i gues next year i will go at a budget hotel, you could safe so much money against BASE were i was this year ^^
Thanks, good video!👍 And can you show some sunshine hip hotel sha extra plus in Soi 2, please?
well I don't believe it. I'm just back from Thailand. I spent 11 weeks at the p plus. perfect location, good rooms.
I'll be back next year.
do you speak Thai daz?
Thank you!
I'm booked into Opey De Place on Soi Lengkee for Dec/Jan would be great if you done a vlog including it so i can see how they have come through covid , i have always stayed there it is a bit old now but its very central to everything
I have stayed there many times in the past and liked it.
What rates are you paying and is it by the month?
@@barrydwyer2039 I'm there for 30 days and it's about 900 a day which is pretty good for Dec/Jan
@@dennisthomsett9468 Thanks for the swift reply. I'm thinking of looking in Jomtien for my next trip In January for 3 months. Did you manage to get a direct flight at a reasonable cost?
@@barrydwyer2039 no , direct flights from where I am are still very expensive so I go on a budget airline through Singapore
excellent information DAZ i have send e mails to two for 18 days in Nov.Cheers
Hi Daz i have stayed in j.p was good.any chance you could do a review on AA PATTAYA VILLE just off 3rd road alley 14 i think.ive booked there for dec/jan and would be great to see what its like
Just a heads up it's Prommanee Hotel (two M's) for the description! Took me a while to find it :P
Weird name🥴
Hi I love your videos i disabled amd coming there on the 1st November from the UK. Could I ask a, favour please when you do these videos of hotels is there any chance when you go into the bathroom you could go a bit lower to the floor to see if there is any lips or steps to get in the shower or is it walk in shower many thanks Jim take care and thanks for any info
Thank you...love the infos....guys normally don't concern about hotel + food but bar drinks & girls would rip our wallets...
Good reviews. I stayed at Areca Lodge. A bit more $$ at 1500 a nght but that includes a great breakfast. 2 large pools, balconies etc. I only go for a few days so I don't mind spending a bit more. At the end of LK Metro on Soi Diana. BTW do you know where I can buy a map of the city with all the sois? Thanks in advance.
You could try a bookshop, there is one in the Avenue and in Big C Extra
P Plus.. it checked many of my boxes BUT room safe too small.. why I have never booked there !
No kettle no balcony a deal breaker for me . I can bring the tea and coffee , but it’s sometimes difficult it is to find out if hotels have them or not .
I get the feeling some video reviewers get tea money while Daz plays it straight. No one works harder than Daz to suss out good locations and deals.
The Prom has some of the Cheapest Bottles in Patts...60/70 bht for a Large Bottle of Lager...
Daz
How do we catch up with you once we are there ?
Also the first two hotels are they located in noisy locations ?
Need a balcony, P-plus is a no no unfortunately, Why on earth they couldn't put a decent balcony on??? Wouldn't be a bad option if they had.
Lol desk lady at the second place had fantastic customer service skills, very attentive.
Tks pal , high end next ? Please
That first one had a lot of natural light. I like that.
I would have no problem with the Promanee Hotel !
Thanks, Daz.
Thanks for checking out P+ ask I requested. By any chance did you get monthly rates here? The Promanee hotel 400 baht is amazing! Thanks.
The Promonee does no longer excist on Soi Bukaow
Well that's £22 a night at 44bht to the pound, maybe a weekly or monthly is better value ?
Stayed there, twin room was small and no balcony, better to book rooms with king size bed!
I preferred the second one to the more expensive fist one. Bigger. The third was very acceptable. Too noisy, though.
I booked P Plus before but found out they charged joining fee when you bring back a lady 😫
Try "momento resort" this is also a cheap and and a good hotel in budget segment .......
Where is it located sawan ? 👍
The receptionist in the 2nd hotel is doing nothing to make any attempt to be a representative of the hotel, she should be sacked and get someone ti take her place who is courteous and has a smile. Could you feel relaxed and approach that with a problem!
Trying to find a way to contact the person who had low cost short term seaview condos for rent in Jomtien. Can you help? Much apprrciated.
Nice reviews 👌 would you know what happened with the sawasdee group of budget hotels,
pattaya has 5 in total
1.siam soi buakhao
2.smile soi honey
3.sabai soi 11
4.seaview soi 10
5.pattaya, soi diana
but it looks like only siam can be book.
hoping the others will make a comeback for high season.
maybe under refurbishment at this time. 🤔 👍
Does any of the hotels have hot tubs
they are basic hotels and get the job done,
Only sawasdee siam hotel/ soi buakhao has a swim pool
some of these front desk staff have a bad attitude and unhelpful like it was a big effort to talk to you like second hotel,i wouldn't stay at those places
Like they don't want the exertion of getting off the stool unless there is a tip involved.
