Jim or Tapioca , do you guys know of a Rugby Tournament in Phuket in July and does it happen every year ?
Some friends are coming over for it which could make things difficult for me

I think it happens every year - will try to find out some more.

The Phuket 10s Phil. I hear it is great. It does happen yearly. There is a mix of all standards (mostly low). You wont find any super 14 players at this. I would love to get a crew together to play in it.

Thanks Jim and Laptop , it gives me a great excuse to go to Phuket to meet some friends from the PI and watch Rugby .
I may have to do an undercover visit to C&D though :wink:

I will most likely be in Pats on 13th so happy to meet you for a drrnk there.

My Phuket plans won't be made until I arrive in Thai late May.

There's quite a bit of difference in price between the Jasmine and the Penthouse, they are almost opposite ends of the spectrum..

I'm not a fan of the Jasmine great location but the compliments end there. The Penthouse is a bit over priced and the negatives outweigh the positives IMHO.

I'd recommend you book somewhere else. If you have the budget and don't mind a different location, the Pattaya Bay Resort would be a better choice.. http://pattayabayresort.com/

cheers mate i will have a look at that place. i think with the walk in 30% off at penthouse i would get a room with jacussi 4 about 1700 baht a night i dont mind paying that as only there 5 nights will treat myself but i will look now at pbr is there any room numbers u would advise there

[kliome]

I stay in longer term accomm so can't recommend a room. You have to also double check your Penthouse price as unlike almost every other hotel in Pattaya they usually quote excluding taxes.

To save this going further off topic, here are a couple of threads on perhaps the two most popular shorter term hotels in Pats

The last time I stayed for less than a month I used the Areca Lodge, which I could also recommend. http://www.arecalodge.com/
