Sunshine Hotel and Residences **
Pattaya, Thailand

Sunshine Hotel & Residents is a great choice if you want to be right in the action in Pattaya. All guest rooms feature double glazed windows and carpet help making it very quiet, but outside the action is jumping. The air conditioning is cool and refreshing, the bed is huge, the bathroom has all modern conveniences and the mini-bar is well stocked but not over priced. The pool downstairs is very inviting, and breakfast overlooking the pool is excellent, with plenty of choices including European options.

Rooms from only US$ 29 per night TAX AND SERVICE INCLUSIVE

Mercure Hotel Pattaya ****
Pattaya, Thailand

Mercure Hotel Pattaya continues to attract repeat business from a growing number of loyal guests. It’s a fairly new hotel and is always spotless, staff cannot do enough for you and food is very good. Early check in is easy to arrange, also a good tip to request room on a higher floor on the rear of hotel overlooking pool. Mercure Hotel Pattaya offers a free 24hr tuk tuk service shuttling guests from the hotel to nearby 2nd Road.

Rooms from only US$ 55 per night TAX AND SERVICE INCLUSIVE
