I reviewed Cabbages and Condoms Restaurant in an earlier post, it as to be the best Thai restaurant for western people in Bangkok.
They have also recently opened a Hotel in Pattaya. I have too tell you that it is one of the best Hotels that I have stayed in.
It is located in Central Pattaya, a headland that separates North and South Pattaya. It is down a 1km road off the main road and you know as soon as you walk into the complex, you are in for a good time.
The theme is the same as the restaurant, Condom based and charitable work for the working girls of Thailand, It as a Jungle setting and as an eco theme as well.
All the rooms have a sea view and it as its own 300m stretch of beach, which was deserted. The pool overlooks the beach and that as a Jacuzzi at its side.
My room was deluxe, which had too be four star and Kim’s was a bigger room with its own patio.
We didn’t have dinner there; instead we went just outside to “The Elephants Bar”. Run by an English guy who knows how too please is English guests. I have craved fish & Chips now for ages, I ordered fish and mix. What came had to be one of the best fish & chip suppers I’ve ever had. Norwegian Cod, mushy peas, well cooked chips, lashings of salt, vinegar and red sauce. Bloody great. All washed down with several pints of John Smiths.
The resort is so quiet; Kim and I discussed the world for a couple of hours in the afternoon while drinking Vodka tonic in the Jacuzzi. Where was Nuch? I made Nuch go to work and go home by herself.
The buffet breakfast was very good, all the parts needed for an English breakfast including baked beans.
The cost of the all this was 2800bht per room, that is around £40 per night. Not bad when you compare to a £50 stay in a travel Lodge.
