Olddaddy Posted Wednesday at 05:03 AM Posted Wednesday at 05:03 AM I got tired of staying in the Base Airbnb 🏬, so looking for hotels in Jomtien, well surprised the Zing resort hotel is booked out !!! 😳 The AGATE is over 2400 baht a night and The VENUE 2000 baht omg 😳 but no pool , Busy busy busy I just can't stay in one place toooooo long ...gets boring , looking at the same walls I believe the music festival 🎶🎶🎶is on so may have something to do with it I need a hotel with a swimming pool 🏊♂️ 🟪🟪Has anyone ever stayed in the Hotel Zing , not to be confused with the one in the Jomtien complex 🟣🟪🟪this one is purple color The Hotel Zing is on the main road Doesn't look too crash hot but it has a swim pool and good price , just I would have to get a baht bus to the Jomtien complex, oh fuck it , I will just stay at Agate and pay that ludicrous price , should I be forced to do this ???. Oh get fucked all of you ❗❗ Thanks for nothing ❗❗ Quote
Olddaddy Posted Wednesday at 06:50 AM Author Posted Wednesday at 06:50 AM I must say I did a little experiment and left my hotel door open and then laid on the bed with my pants off. The amount of "stickybeaks " 🦆who stop and look in your open room is amazing Just the pure shock on their faces 😳 , you close your eyes laying half naked and you can suddenly hear their footsteps 🚶♂️come to a stop and then you open your eyes and see them stood there in shock before darting off 🏃♂️lol 😂 Quote

Travellerdave Posted Wednesday at 04:46 PM Posted Wednesday at 04:46 PM I had a similar situation in that all the Complex gay friendly hotels were fully booked in January 2025 for most of my trip. As part of the solution I had 6 nights at the Jomtien Palm Beach Resort which is the large tall hotel only a short distance from the Complex where Thrap pra Road meets Beach Road. Before checking in I asked about joiners, and mentioned that in my case they would be male. I was assured with a “boys ok” and made good use of this facility There is a rear entrance from Jomtien 2nd Road. The room was fine and quiet and I liked the huge swimming pool. bkkmfj2648, vinapu, Olddaddy and 1 other 3 1 Quote

You could book day by day as rates may drop further. I presume they will go up again during Songkran. Hotel Zing rooms are tiny and I personally don't care for that purple and all-white paint job but it sounds like a safe, budget-friendly option and vinapu likes their breakfasts. 😉 vinapu 1 Quote

Olddaddy Posted 2 hours ago Author Posted 2 hours ago Yes I stayed in the 🟪HOTEL ZING,🟪 don't confuse it with ZING RESORT in the Jomtien complex the last few nights , booked through THEIR website at 900 baht a night , you can actually become a "Zinger" member , which means I could check in early , no other benefits that I can see , they let me check in at 1145am whilst I saw others sitting in the reception you can actually get it cheaper on Agoda I'm sure , I'm sure in low season they go down to 750b The rooms are small , here you will see a picture of my room which was a twin bed , To get value for my room, I set the alarm on at 3am so I could sleep in both beds and changed over 🛏️🛌as you can see by the pic both beds have been used The negatives are , you will have to get a baht bus🚌 to the Jomtien complex or walk the 20 minutes 🚶♂️🚶♂️ They have a medium sized swimming pool which was full at 10am this morning with European people , these people like to SHOUT on their phone as they are talking 🗣️🗣️around the swimming pool. The swimming pool is not as big as Jomtien complex zing 🏊♂️🏊♂️ No rooms have balconies ‼️‼️ It's a budget hotel and they admit it It's on the main road Breakfast 199 baht buffet ,average value ,not great ,not bad Would I stay here again? Probably not ,rooms too small ,no balcony to sit n have coffee , too far from action , and I don't like Russians shouting , oh don't be racist please !!! vinapu 1 Quote
PeterRS Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Not sure why there are so many tourists now. When I return to BKK late afternoon yesterday, the airport was humming with arriving passengers. I have not seen it so crowded for quite a few years. Was it a holiday somewhere? My flight was CX from Hong Kong and was no more than 15% full. Quote
