GF Hau Hin Hotel

[ferris]

Hi All,


Before you shoot me down, I KNOW that there is a thread for this already but for the life of me I cannot find it. If someone could point me in the right direction I would be greatful.

Myself and my buddy are travelling down from bangkok to Phuket, thought we would stop over a couple of nights in Hau Hin. We need a comfortable hotel with air-con and must be guest friendly. Any ideas??

BTW thanks to all BMs for the help in finding a good hotel in Bangkok...it's booked.

Try:

Thipurai City Hotel , www.thipuraicityhotel.com

Good location, 1400baht a night if memory serves and no probs with girls as far as I am aware.

Also, Jed Pee Nong Hotel @ 1,200 baht including breakfast (and no charge for 'guests':-

Hope you find a good hotel Ferris.

How are you travelling? Will you rent a car and drive?

I'm considering doing the same journey in the new year and would be interested in how long it takes etc.

Hi Gez,

The idea is to stay a few nights in Bangkok and then get the over-night train down to Hau Hin (don't fancy driving around Bangkok) then hire a car or jeep and head down to Phuket. I'll let you know how we get on.

Thanks for all the help lads

you can go to Hua Hin with a minibus from Victory Monument for 160 Baht, depending you have not too much luggage with you. They drive directly, no stop. About 2 hours driving.

ALSO direct mini bus 2 timews a day 06.30 am and 14.30 pm from nana hotel taxi from bangkok only 2000 bhat and takes 2 hors 30 mins train is a nightmare stops everywhere takes nearly 6 hours

driving from huahin to phuket will take you 10 hours better to go back to b/k and fly

Anything of interest between H/H and Phuket? How about a ferry to Koh Samui? My geographic knowledge of that area is a bit poor , but if someone wanted to go to H/H and Samui and were in no great hurry, then maybe this route may be ok?

SURAT THANI (for the samui ferry) is 6 hours from huahin only place i know of between is prachuap khiri khan which is a big town with a beach but as alfie says time for us in los is too short to waste travelling 10 hours by road fly young man fly !

You can drive to Ranong and cross over to Burma there. There is a small casino and maybe something else.
