Default First time in Pattaya

Hi just come across this site and have found some great info for the LOS. I'm off to Pattaya in October for 10 days and I was working out my daily cash spend for the time i'll be there.

How much money would I need for 10 days to have a fun time ??

I've also booked 10 days at Passenda Lodge which I have found through this site.. thanks

Hi

I guess you mean Pasadena Lodge on LK metro.
Must have missed it being mentioned on this site,
how did you find it?
What type of room have you booked? as the standard ones are very small.


Always difficult to answer spending money questions but for a 1st trip(?) allow yourself between 7-10K baht a day, and make sure you`ve got access
to back-up money.
Doubt you`ll need more but better safe than sorry.
Better to bring back surplus funds than run short.

Thanks Roamer

I'm sure I found the hotel on this site, here is the link http://www.hotelpasadenalodge.com/ I staying in the superior room and got it for the price of the standard. The lady who runs it (Ann) is very nice and offered this deal if i booked up with her.

I'm gonna take about 70000 baht and a card as back up just incase, the baht isn't that great at the moment but i hope it will improve over the next 2 weeks.

I've also been told it's very quiet compared to other years in Pattaya is that right??

Thanks
in advance

Hi antonk

Superior room for the price of standard
seems OK, 700 baht a night yes?

Think your spending money will be fine,
especially with card as back-up.
I`ve not been in Pattaya since May but yes according to reports it seems quiet there,would suit me fine.

Enjoy your trip,be nice to hear what you think
of Pasadena Lodge and your view of Pattaya.

Welcome to the board.

Welcome to the board Anton.

If you are from the UK, get yourself a Nationwide Flex account card. Works everywhere in Pattaya, no charges and easy to control via internet banking.

Enjoy your stay in Pattaya and on this board. Any questions just ask, someone here usually has the answer.
