its absoultly fine
girl freindly
clean rooms
one of the best locations in patong
decent food
changed hands a few moths ago bur not much has changed a great short stay hotel no pool but there is one at the top of the road a big ocean at the bottom of the road so dont think ya will find it a problem having somwhere to chill
i think the new owner might have somthing to do with the thai pan spa WHEN it opens so there might be a pool almost onsite
hope you enjoy the stay

Hi Petter

My friend Paul Gibson has taken over the hotel, i stopped there just before Xmas the apartments are outstanding, very spacious and clean, i would definatly recomend it.

Also the staff are very friendly and no problem bringing girls back.

Have a good stay if you decide.

their facilities are excellent, I went there the day they opened. Not too many free-weights, but the equipment was pretty top of the line. Nice folks, they even have "real" massage tables.

Manager is a great guy. Met him in a bar and he invited me and my gf to his change of management party. Put on a great spread. Rooms seem nice and reasonably cheap. Havent stayed there yet but plan to in the near future.

Looks a good hotel this one. Is it near the beach?

Crustasian · #11 06-01-2006, 00:17

The Yorkshire Inn is on Sans Sabai half way up on left side.Still an easy walk to Bangla.It has also got a mini bus service to Ranong for visa trips.ST66 did a trip last week and said they were good.

It's a bit of a bugger hopping around on one foot here while the other one is in my mouth! Leave it to Denver to balls it up. So if Paul is reading, my apologies!

Nice rooms BTW, I would have to get some other women in.

Well done Denver, you could now look them up and repost them just to highlight it again.

I was just wondering about the high season rate, it drops from 1700 to 1000, but does not say when this is, when does high season end, do all the hotels drop at the same time or i guess the busier ones hang on to high season a bit longer, or is this a stupid question????

And the owner paul is an ex pro golfer, (just like i could have been had i not chosen the oil industry) perhaps he could help out the BMs who were golfing the other day as i have just read the scores.

Hi Petter, stayed at the Yorkshire in October. Had the big apartment on the first floor. Outstanding place with 2 TV's, mini kitchen, great ground level view of soi sansabai, conveniently located and a friendly staff. Very pleased and will stay there again.

The apartments look quite nice. When you say first floor, is that the ground floor or the first floor up? A little difference between North American usage and elsewhere.
