Has anyone stayed in tim boutique hotel or mercure hotel in pattaya thailand?

looked at these two hotels and they seem to be the best for the price and also look to be in a good location any help pleaseHas anyone stayed in tim boutique hotel or mercure hotel in pattaya thailand?
I haven't used these places but I know where they are. The Tim Boutique is a practically brand new hotel. It is in a good location close to Pattaya 2nd Road which is a main street. Close to malls and movie theaters, restaurants, bars and street vendors. Short walk to Beach Road.





The Mercure is a little older but not bad. Your choice, if you are okay with the price. My choice would be the Tim Hotel only because it would be a little easier to utilize the cheap 10 baht baht bus transportation on Pattaya 2nd Road.





Keep in mind that hotels in Pattaya that are in the 500-600 baht range will have air, hot water, private toilet, cable TV. Maybe at around 800 baht they will have pools too!





Good luck.Has anyone stayed in tim boutique hotel or mercure hotel in pattaya thailand?
HI Look at the sunbeam hotel or the globetrotter they are a much better location , you want to be @ soi7 or 8 for the best location , everything in walking distance , you could try the pig %26amp; whistle in soi 7 the have room as well and the best breakfast in pattaya
Not stayed in either of them but I know the Mercure is a little out of the way of things in relation to get on the main road and could be bad at nights if you have a family.





I normally stay in www.sandyspringshotel.com but have a look at www.pattayaphotoguide.com to find out about location of each
I stayed at the Mecure about a year and a half ago, no complaints. The rooms were clean, good for the price and they had a decent breakfast. It is a few blocks back from the beach but they had a free shuttle that takes you down to near 2nd Rd. and runs continuously until very late. Nothing great, but not bad at all.
You may also want to look at Pattaya Bay Resort (close to 2nd road).

Natural Beach Hotel which is right on Beach Road.





They have their own web sites.
