Nice spot near the beach that attracts golfers
I asked a German friend who recently had moved to Pattaya for a hotel recommendation near the beach because my wife and I decided on short notice to go to a jazz festival the city was holding on the beach. He suggested the Whitehouse because it was “clean and reasonable,” which was all we needed to know, and tge recommendation was spot on. Check-in with the English manager (unusual for our experience at many Thai hotels) was extremely pleasant, and we found the staff friendly and helpful. There is a nice, compact rooftop pool, and breakfast was included from a modest a la carte menu with Thai and Western options. Not the lavish buffet spread some hotels offer, but good quality. The central Pattaya Beach is a 3-4 minute walk from the door, and the walking street it’s on (#13) doesn’t have dozens of bars and massage joints like a couple of the adjacent ones, which meant a bit less street noise and fewer dodgy characters on a late-night walk back from the beachfront. I’m not a golfer, but should note that the Whitehouse is a favorite of golf travelers and even has a line of nice-looking hotel-themed golf polos apparently for sale in the lobby in at least three colors.
