Attractions

You don’t have to travel far to experience the best of Pattaya, with three standout attractions just a short ride from the hotel:

• Walking Street: Only 2 kilometers away, this iconic waterfront strip comes alive after dark with open-air bars, street food stalls, live music, and seafood restaurants. By day, it’s a quieter spot to wander along the beachfront and browse souvenir shops.
• Sanctuary of Truth: A 15-minute drive north of the hotel, this jaw-dropping all-wooden temple is covered in intricate hand-carved sculptures exploring themes of Eastern philosophy and cosmology. It’s one of Pattaya’s most photographed cultural landmarks, with ocean views from its clifftop location.
• Nong Nooch Tropical Botanical Garden: A 25-minute drive south, this sprawling 500-acre garden features themed tropical gardens, traditional Thai dance and elephant shows, and stunning orchid collections. It’s perfect for a full day of family-friendly outdoor exploration.

Travel Tips

Book a room with a balcony if you’re visiting between November and February, when cool evening breezes make outdoor sitting a joy. Ask the 24-hour front desk to arrange a day trip to Koh Larn island, the nearest beach escape from Pattaya, for a competitive rate. Grab breakfast at one of the local street food stalls just a 2-minute walk from Soi Metro for fresh Thai pancakes and coffee at a fraction of restaurant prices. Always carry a copy of your hotel address to show tuk-tuk drivers, and if you’re driving, the hotel’s free private parking means you won’t have to hunt for a spot on Pattaya’s crowded streets. For families, request a connecting room in advance to guarantee space for your group.
