gomez Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 Hi, I've been to Hua Hin before, but I am easy to please, quite happy to stay in fairly, ah... rough places. But my sister is coming for a visit and wants to go to Hua Hin. I'd like to take her to someplace a bit more comfortable than the average backpacker stays. Prefer if it was in the centre of things. Any suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.. Posted October 27, 2005 Report Share Posted October 27, 2005 How much moola do ya want to spend? For nice digs, the expat choice is the Hilton. It's sa-weet. But it's B5500/night in high season. Ther are some even better places, but even more pricey (like the Chiva Som, but that one is ~US$465/night) Oh, ya want less. How about Baan Talay Dao? It's nice too (I may even prefer it over the Hilton...it's close) and ~B3400/night high season. Cheers, SD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boring_Man Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 The Marriott is just dandy and the Anantara is very nice as well. The higher-end rooms at the Anantara are worth the money. The only real problem at the Anantara is that the beach is pretty skimpy and disappears completely at high tide. The beach at the Marriott is much better. I'd rate the Marriott as better value-for-money, but the better rooms at the Anantara are more romantic, with bathtubs built for two :hubba: Actually these were/are more popular among the expats I know/knew, so don't go there if you're hoping to be unobserved. There's always the Sofitel. Get drunk and pretend you're in The Killing Fields (take that, reference hunters!). Watch out for the ghosts, though--Thais are convinced the place is haunted.

cactus Posted October 31, 2005 Report Share Posted October 31, 2005 Hua Hin Suites is nice. Close to most everything and about 1500b for Terrace rooms so you can have a drink with the others in you party before going out. Very clean and accomodating.

Dali Posted November 1, 2005 Report Share Posted November 1, 2005 The Hilton is definitely in the center of things - numerous beer bars and restaurants within a couple of blocks, though the beach isn't much. Also has an excellent breakfast buffet. Mariott is a short hop away from the action, but has a nice beach and a GREAT spa (outdoor treatment rooms & garden showers, etc,). I like to stay at the Hilton and visit the spa at the Marriott. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
