Thank you for the reply. I have booked a ground floor room. Apart from the reasonable rate, the main reason I chose this hotel is, seems like its the only hotel that accepts booking without credit card (even without upfront payment).

I am still researching if i could find better ones.

they are a cash only hotel no credit cards..

The more i read this forum and other sites, maybe what I am looking for is a more 'centralised' area where it is not far to walk to soi 6, lk metro, walking street and beach road. I am such a noob in pattaya. I've read a lot of stuff.. some say this and that (too many different opinions and even conflicting facts like for eg hotel xyg is 2 mins walk to location abc, whilst some site says it's 15 min walk etc etc..

I am sorry but I am trying my best not to be trigger happy on asking too many noob questions without make my own research first. Jasmine is the only hotel i've considered because of the reason I stated in my recent post.

Open http://maps.google.com/ , search for Pttaya, pinpoint your points of interest - this will give you a (covex) object, compute its center of gravity. This should give you the answer.

According to your indications, it should be somewhere around Soi 13 on second road.

This might be of some help:

It is far from a complete list of hotels as it doesn't even include the Jasmine.

A bit off topic in this thread but IMO if you want to do some walking a nice location is somewhere around Soi 13 (where there are lots of hotels). Although I heard there is some construction on the soi (close to Sandy Springs Hotel I think). Pretty easy walk to Walking Street and as far as Soi 7 and Soi 8. I would probably take a baht bus to Soi 6. Especially as the weather gets hotter and hotter.

Hoping to make one of my brief visits, 1st November for 2 or 3 nights, on my way home from a work visit to China.
On my early visits to Pattaya I used to stay at Jasmine, but changed over after PBR opened and have stayed a few other places too.

Given I will hardly have time to unpack my case I'm really not bothered about too many amenities, I can nick the shampoo and body lotion from the Guanzhou Sofitel
I read here and at their own website that management have been doing a bit of upgrading since I last stayed, not sure about the pool which seems to be in the restaurant! even a lift.
The location was always good and is probably better now not having Ezy next door.
Anybody stayed at Jasmine in recent months? is it worth a return visit?
