AYA Boutique Hotel Pattaya - SHA Plus

It's funny reading the reviews and what some people complain about. I almost didn't book this hotel, but I am glad I did. Room was large with a sun bed style sitting area, a king-sized bed which was comfortable with four plush pillows, a shower the size of a Roman bathhouse with very quick hot water and strong water pressure and, most importantly, fantastic AC - a real luxury after a week of lacklustre AC in Laos in April. Location is perfect as the hotel is well off the main roads in a kind of side street/lane that is quite open with only a couple of restaurants opposite. Really easy for taxis/Grab/motorbike to pick and drop off. 1-min walk to the beach and 5 or so mins to Pattaya Walking Street (Google Maps massively overstates the distance) Had no real issues with noise. Room cleaning service available daily (I often told them not to worry, but they still gave me water bottles each day), two elevators, a pool (that isn't really that great, but I never use the pool anyway), an adequate gym. I'm not sure what there isn't to like.

Outstanding location, literally one minute walk to Beach Road and the beach. Two-minute walk the opposite direction to Sai Song (Pattaya 2nd Street). 10-13 minute walk to Pattaya Walking Street, or Grand Hall Market, or Central Pattaya Mall, depending on which direction you're heading. Comfortable room, good AC, decent space for solo traveler or couple. In-room fridge can hold multiple bottles of beverages and a couple small food items, including the two complimentary bottles of water daily. Closet safe for valuables. Decent hot water in tub/shower. Comfortable bed and pillows. Quiet, glass-side pool with view of the small but bustling alley (a "walking" alley with shops and stalls and a few bars). Good fitness center on 6th floor. Never an issue getting a ride-hail car or motorbike almost any time of day or night. Have stayed here twice in the last 5 months -- in the same room, no less -- and have always been quite satisfied. Free parking for motorbikes (not necessarily for cars - see comments below)

Fantastic location. 2min walk to beach and 10min to lively walking street and bars. Yet remarkably quiet. Very close to all kinds of restaurants, sea food, Thai, Indian, Italian etc... Staff very good and helpful. I had 5th floor, and room was nice and big. Had fridge, safe, water, coffee and movies.

The hotel is very nice. The rooms are comfortable with nice quite big bath rooms. Location is perfect for night life. We had an absolute great time out in Pattaya, while inside the hotel it is quiet and you can sleep well.
