Upon check-in, the staff were flexible, kind, and warm. The room was spacious enough for two people. Breakfast buffet was affordable at 200B, offered a wide variety of delicious dishes. The showerhead was fixed to the wall and couldn't be moved. It was convenient that Japanese plugs could be used directly, eliminating the need for a voltage converter.

The only issue with this hotel was the slow Wi-Fi. If you're staying here, you might need an unlimited data plan. The entire hotel staff was incredibly proactive and attentive, and they could communicate in basic Chinese. We checked in around 3 or 4 AM, and all our check-in documents were already prepared for us, making the process very efficient. The lobby can help receive food deliveries and packages, and collection is also very meticulous and convenient. The room space was ample. Although the facilities were visibly a bit dated, they were very well-maintained. There were quite a few mirrors, and when my friend expressed some concern about the room's decor, they promptly helped us adjust it. The bathroom had a slight odor, but it was within an acceptable range. There's a 7-Eleven right downstairs from the hotel, and the location is very close to both the BTS and the Airport Rail Link, making it very convenient to get to the city center.

Great location, very close to the BTS Skytrain. You can easily walk to the Erawan Shrine and Central World. The hygiene was well-maintained, and the service was excellent. Facilities are comprehensive, with a pool and gym, though they are a bit small. The rooms, however, are quite spacious. The welcome drink was a thoughtful touch. The hotel has a distinct medieval gallery style, and the theme really stands out. The room was very quiet, and the bedding was clean and comfortable. The staff were very warm and attentive.

I was very lucky to get an upgrade, and the room was incredibly spacious and comfortable. The gym has a comprehensive range of weight training equipment, and there are even free trainer-led classes every day at 3 PM, which I found to be a great value. There's also a game room, delicious meals, and plenty of free, good coffee on the first floor. On the first day, I asked housekeeping for two extra bottles of water, and every day after that, my room had four extra bottles – that was very thoughtful. The only minor drawback was that the hot water was a bit unstable.

Always a nice stay in here. The workers are very friendly, rooms are comfortable and the pool areas are really nice. We always come back here when we are in Bangkok. Breakfast selection is good but the dinning area is maybe a bit too small for the amount of guests between 8:30am to 10am.

However, it's easy to get around by calling a motorcycle taxi via Grab. Although it's one of the lower-tier Hilton brands, the breakfast exceeded my expectations with a great variety and delicious food.

The hotel is located in the Sukhumvit area. The staff were very friendly and provided excellent service. During my first stay, the room was nice and well equipped with everything I needed, including large bottles of shampoo and body wash, a hair dryer, a kettle, tea and coffee, a wardrobe, and a small working area. However, my experience during my second stay was not quite as good. There was a small hole in the door, which made me feel a little uncomfortable, although it was not possible to see through it from outside. The sink was also clogged. The staff were very helpful and immediately sent someone to fix it. When it could not be repaired, they kindly upgraded me to a family room. Despite the issues with the room, I was very impressed with how the staff handled the situation and took care of me. The location is also convenient, with a 7-Eleven and several restaurants nearby. I would stay here again if I needed to attend a meeting in this area. The only downside is that the surrounding area can feel a little unsafe or uncomfortable when walking alone at night.

The hotel looks nice from the outside, and the staff were polite. However, the room felt a bit dated and could benefit from some maintenance and refurbishment. The pillow had a slight odor, and a few facilities in the room were showing signs of wear, such as the soap holder, bidet spray, and toilet seat. The bathroom could also use more attention to detail, as I noticed some spider webs. One thing to be aware of is that the hotel appears to be popular with China groups, and the lobby was often quite busy. At times, some guests were lying down in the lobby area, which made the atmosphere feel an uncomfortable.

The happy hour drinks by the pool were buy-one-get-one-free, and they even had free Thai costume try-ons with a wide selection of accessories. Plus, there's a shuttle service that takes you near the subway station. The overall environment was very clean. Next time I'm in Bangkok, Thailand, I'll definitely choose to stay here again.

The hotel is not far from Nana station, about an 8-minute walk. Taxis can drop you right at the entrance. Downstairs is a bustling bar street, which gets very lively and congested after 11 PM. There are 7-Eleven convenience stores at both ends of the street and in the middle. I stayed in a room facing the back of the hotel, and it was very quiet! The front desk staff were very friendly. The only downside was that the grout in the shower stall had black mold, likely due to using the wrong material.

Everything was great, and the environment was good. Although it's a bit tucked away in an alley, there's a shuttle bus to the alley entrance, which is quite convenient! There's only one thing that wasn't so good: the soundproofing is really terrible. I'm not someone who's overly sensitive to noise, but the sound insulation is genuinely very poor! On the first night, I could hear the people in the next room chatting very loudly, and they continued until past 5 AM, making it impossible to sleep, so I left early! When I returned to the room on the second day, there were two Korean guys next door, making a lot of noise all night, constantly ”****” (explicit word removed), again until 5 or 6 AM. It was only on the last night that it finally quieted down. Besides the soundproofing, everything else was basically good, and the hotel staff were very friendly! If they could improve the sound insulation, it would truly be a great hotel! I would definitely be willing to stay again!

This was my first stay at 130 Hotel, and I tested it out for a week. The room was very clean, the air conditioning was cold, and the fridge was large. It had a safe, and the bathroom was spotless with a separate wet and dry area. The sink area was very practical. There was a kettle and a hairdryer, but no toothbrush. It also had a square table and two chairs, which were very useful. For shopping, there's a 7-Eleven to the left of the hotel, Lotus's to the right, and a CJ MORE supermarket further right. It was incredibly convenient! The breakfast restaurant was excellent, and the food was good too. I also recommend the small shop next to 7-Eleven; both the taste and prices were super. My experience at 130 Hotel was a success, and I highly recommend it to everyone.

This is a good enough hotel, located just a few minutes' walk from Bali Hai Pier. The downside was that the on-site pool was closed, and we were only informed about it at check-in; it wasn't mentioned on the website. The room was cleaned daily, toiletries were replenished, and slippers and bathrobes were provided. We stayed in a tropical room, which was quiet. Upon arrival, I also received a pleasant complimentary fruit platter. The breakfasts weren't overly lavish, but basic needs could be met. A big plus was the large selection of fruits, so it was generally enough for me, though the food itself was a bit repetitive. Also, note that the hotel grounds are quite large. A nice bonus is the pool across the road by the sea, equipped with showers and toilets.

Naklua Pattaya|4.81km dari pusat bandar
This hotel is located in North Pattaya, near the Sanctuary of Truth. You can even snap photos with the Sanctuary of Truth right from the hotel restaurant and your room. It's about 3 kilometers from Pattaya's bustling Walking Street, which some might find inconvenient, but I actually see it as a major advantage. Walking Street is often packed with people, and all hotels there lack private beaches, requiring you to cross a street to reach public ones, which isn't ideal for a relaxing vacation. In contrast, Garden Sea View Resort offers direct ocean access, with the sea right below. There's also a dedicated safe zone for swimming and kayaking. The hotel itself boasts a swimming pool, spa, nail salon, coffee shop, and a sea-view restaurant… you can enjoy a one-stop vacation without even leaving the premises. The hotel provides 7 daily complimentary shuttle services to Terminal 21, Pattaya's most popular shopping mall. This way, you can easily access the bustling areas when you want, and retreat to tranquility at the hotel when you prefer. This is truly the perfect way to experience a coastal city vacation. Surrounding Amenities: Since this was my second visit, I spent some time exploring the hotel's vicinity. Right at the hotel's access road entrance is a Tops supermarket. Within a few hundred meters, there are two more Tops supermarkets and two 7-Eleven stores. There's also a small night market where many Westerners dine in the evenings, and a fruit market offering a wide variety of fresh, seasonal fruits at great prices – perfect for enjoying all the durian you desire! The area also has numerous small shops, car rental services, nail salons, pharmacies, and more, giving it a vibrant local feel. Hotel Dining & Services: The hotel's Blue Kirin Sea View Restaurant is fantastic for photos! It offers delicious Thai, Japanese, and Western cuisine, with prices ranging from tens to over a hundred yuan per person. Sitting by the sea in the evening, enjoying the breeze, listening to live music, and savoring good food truly makes for a delightful vacation experience. A one-hour massage at the hotel costs 500 Thai Baht, and in-house guests receive a 10% discount. While it's slightly pricier than surrounding massage parlors, considering the 5-star environment and cleanliness, I opted for the hotel's massage service for the rest of my stay. An hour for approximately 90 Chinese Yuan is quite reasonable. The masseuses are highly skilled, leaving you feeling completely relaxed. Highly recommended!

The room has a washing machine, but no dryer function, and laundry detergent is not provided. The towel art (little animals...) was a very thoughtful and delightful touch! It's a great place to stay that I would choose again next time.

Location was great as it's not too far away from the night life (can walk like 25mins to Walking Street) and the hotel is in a decently quiet area. Check in was fine - 1000 baht deposit Staff were helping with providing extra items for my room such as more chairs, hangers and a table. Breakfast is 630-1030 for 250baht. No a bad selection. No Pork options though. Staff and reception are quite helpful. Everything u would need is nearby... inexpensive restaurants, nightlife, massage, laundry, etc. The rooms could use some sound proofing as u can here EVERYTHING going on in the hallway, the room next to you and the room across the hall.

On the downside, the soundproofing in the hotel is poor. Also, we had requested a room with a pool view in advance, but unfortunately, our request wasn't considered at all during check-in.

This was my third hotel in Pattaya, and I stayed for three nights. The location is excellent, right on Thappraya Road, halfway between South Pattaya and Jomtien. It was easy to catch a songthaew, and there's a 7-Eleven right across the street, which was very convenient. The hotel isn't large; it feels more like a boutique hotel, and there weren't many groups, so the clientele was pleasant. The facilities are well-maintained and clean, and the rooms were also meticulously cleaned and well-kept. The front desk, security guards, and cleaning staff were all courteous and well-trained. I was upgraded to the top floor this time, which was very comfortable. The linens were changed daily with fresh sheets and pillowcases, showing the owner's excellent management. While the breakfast selection isn't extensive, it's perfectly reasonable considering the price. Overall, it's a wonderfully clean and comfortable hotel that I would definitely like to visit again.

The hotel was understaffed. Most days at breakfast, if something ran out, it wouldn't be refilled until the next day. The coffee machine was out of milk, so I had to drink my coffee black that day. I reminded them twice, and then I felt embarrassed to ask again. After we finished eating, nobody came to clear the plates, so they just piled up on the table. The treadmill in the gym was broken, and we had to wait to use the working one. In the pool, the jets in the massage area were broken, and we had to be careful when sitting down. The glass panels around the pool were so dirty you couldn't see the surrounding buildings. Honestly, we were really disappointed with this hotel chain. For what we paid at this hotel in Bangkok, we could have found something much better and paid less in Bangkok. I do not recommend this hotel to anyone.

I stayed there during the off-season, which might be why I received a complimentary in-room breakfast and a free upgrade to a double room. I must thank the hotel administrator for that. The hotel is quite good for its price, even excellent. The room has everything you need: a kettle, a safe, hangers, and a small balcony (though you have to climb to get onto it). Toiletries like soap, shampoo, and shower gel are also provided. Each floor has a communal balcony where you can smoke, and there are chill-out areas and a pool. The hotel is located in an alley, making it very quiet. It's a short walk to 7/11, and a leisurely 5-minute stroll to Cozy Beach. While there's no public transport, a Grab Bike to the city center or Jomtien takes only 10 minutes and costs around 25-35 baht. The only downside was the terrible Wi-Fi – it barely worked at all. Thankfully, I had mobile internet. Overall, it's a good budget-friendly place for those who want to spend time by the sea and aren't too picky.
