I start my afternoon walk from Soi BUAKHAO down Soi Diana explaining and showing you what is on Soi Diana like the hotels, Areca lodge, Lk Metropole, restaurants, thai massage shops, bars, guesthouses and more. My first stop is LK Metropole Hotel which is a Pattaya Guest friendly hotel. I take you to the entrance and I have a look at the pool area. After that I keep walking down Soi Diana and we go past Soi lk Metro then into the Areca Lodge Hotel which is the best hotel on Soi BUAKHAO. I take you to a tour through the hotels swimming pools. First stop is the Cabana pool then show you the gym& spa area then off to the second pool. The Evergreen pool on the Evergreen building side. Then I walk down Buakhao 15 near the Evergreen building side of the Areca Lodge. Show you the Pattaya Travel Lodge Hotel which is another Pattaya Guest friendly hotel. I go past thai massage shops and bars into Pattaya Avenue Mall. I go through the ball and show you what is in the mall like the Fitness 7 gym, Villa Market, Boots, McDonald's restaurant, currency exchange banks and more. I walk across second road and walk down Soi 13/1 which has alot of happy ending thai massage shops. Many bars, restaurants and guesthouses. I great walk through Soi 13/1 onto beach road the a walk down Soi 13 which has alot of good hotels like Sandy Spring hotel, Lek Hotel, Ma Mansion and many more.

Thank u and I hope u subscribed to Pattaya Slyman
Great video.
Agreed about Areca lodge.
Stayed there a few times as well
Thank you so much
I always stay there.
Another excellent video Mr Slyman! Very, very informative. I was hoping you would show the room in the Areca Lodge. But you said that will be in a future video.
Yes it will thanks for watching
Awesome video very informative andvyoubseem like cool guy
Great that lad first time I was in Pattaya I stayed at the Ma Maison soi 13 and it was great! Memory lane that walkthrough :)
Cheers
I love pattaya slyman
Great video! Soi Diana/Honey/LK are my favorite areas in Pattaya. Checking into the Areca in 2 1/2 weeks so thanks for the footage!
Thank you so am a little surprised people like this video so much! I will be doing more video like this and I really enjoy doing them
@@slyman6666 I think the Soi Diana area is really popular and not as many videos out there as other places... The Soi Diana beer bar complex near the covered pavillion is really good too! Had some great nights there!
Good choice.
@@The303panthers I think that this area including LK Metro is far superior to Walking Street.
Indeed it is!!
Slyman, I have stayed in the Areca side of the hotel several times and will again this June ( up to 35 days) . I have no issues with the older room. Yes its older, but its very clean and well maintained. the room has everything I need in a hotel setting - decent WIFi, a great selection of TV channels, both Thai and English, good comfortable bed, large size fridge for long stay, and its spacious for my wife and I. bottom line, regardless of what rooms you paid for ( Areca, Evergreen, or Corona) all the guests have access to the gym, the 2 pools , breakfast buffet, and solid customer service from the staff. best of all, the location as you mentioned, is the # 1 reason why Areca Lodge has the best returning customer % in Pattaya. I enjoyed the video and your commentary on Soi Diana, it has become my favorite Soi and area in all of Pattaya.
Thank u for watching & commenting! Yes I have stayed in every room as well. Including the family room. They are all decent even the older rooms! But I just like staying in the Evergreen building because of the key cards. I said I stayed at the Areca Lodge 5 times, actually about 10 times
10x!! lucky you!
Your the lucky one! 35 days at the areca lodge! Great fun
thx Slyman!
Good Video Buddy, Getting me nostalgic here in my office thousands of Kms away, i do have a vacation next month but i vowed to myself to stay away from Pattaya and drop it like the sweet bad habit it is. Whats the occupancy rate tourists-wise over 100 ( Hotels/ Bars )? And how long are u staying there for ?
Low season right now but this is Pattaya..Seems like the good hotels are always rarely full. Pattaya is an addiction for sure! Thanks for watching
14:24 DOG'S BOLLOCKS BAR
Cheers
Slyman , good old soi Diana , one of my old haunts .
Has changed quite a bit ,I was there when they laid the asphalt and the bottom end near Buakhao was a huge empty lot with the od chicken running around in it .
One Thai guy put up a bamboo hut on the empty lot on Buakhao and was selling bar drinks .
This was a few years back may be 15 years at least .
You may have still been in nappies , how time flys !
U enjoy the video. Yes I remember as well
Hahaha just joking
Thank u for watching
@@slyman6666 thank you for videoing .
I hope everybody watching the ads too lol!
I remember Areca lodge being built when I was there .
That street that has the Billabong bar soi LK Metro and that big hotel opposite the Sawasdee Mansion , all those structures were not there , now the place has exploded .
Yes I remember too. Only Soi Honey was around
I use to stay at the Sawasdee Mansion on soi Honey for 200 baht a night
@@slyman6666 I have stayed their too .
Had this girl and she bought one of her friends back and they were into each other , quite a surprise .
@@slyman6666 I have stayed there near the 2nd Road end of soi Honey.
If that is the case , you were not in nappies lol .
@@farangutan6773 hahaha maybe so
I like to stay in those quiet side streets for a good night's sleep, but still be walking distance to all the action and drinking.
Thanks for watching
Mr Slyman, I dont know if you have already, but you should do a video of the SOAPY MASSAGE PARLORS. I know it wouldn't be easy, but if anyone can do it, it's you.
That would be hard because its bright inside. I was thinking about that for a while now. Maybe I will try
@@slyman6666 If anyone can do it, you can. I have the utmost confidence in you. Lol
@@slyman6666 , no vlogers have ever managed to film the inside of a soapy massage , let alone everything else that goes on further inside .
You should do a deal with agoda so if anyone books the hotels through your link you make a little commission
I know I am going to contact them soon
@5:25 I want to stay there. Is it guest friendly?
Yes I said that before I entered the entrance. Subtitled too
U like this video?
@@slyman6666 I thought that was for a different hotel, and yes, I always give your videos a thumbs up.
Yes
Of Course
I joined coco fitness on beach road and other than the beautiful view and cleanliness...the place was useless. All of the equipment seemed like incorrect sized toy versions of real equipment. Waste of money. The dumbbells jumped up in 5kg increments. Which was impractical. For a month at 1600 baht, I would join fitness 7. This is a perfectly done walkaround. Thanks.
Yes I have been there a few times too. Expensive and alot of thsi people who try to work out lol! I go to Tony's fitness on Soi BUAKHAO for only 120baht or go to Twin Tiger mauy thai 3rd road
@@slyman6666 awesome...thanks for the info and response
If you have been to Thailand for last 5 years, then this blog is misleading and more so if you are a Canadian. I see this blog was taken May, 2019 and I was there at that time. It was my 6th trip. My 1st trip I stayed a LK Mansion. There is a bar in front of LK Mansion owned by a Canadian from Winnipeg. The next year LK Mansion doubled their prices. I then stayed at Sawasdee chain of hotel. My first trip was 2.5 months. I stay for almost 3 mths in Thailand. At least 1 month in Pattaya. The other times I stayed with my wife from Thailand at her house near Udon Thani. I always arrange to meet up with my fellow Canadian who has been going to Thailand for the last 25 years. He stays at places like LITTLE HOUSE on soi dianc at 10k baht a month. I got quite a bit of information from him and also from my wife. Sawasdee hotels are not the most luxurious rooms but for 1 month 8000-12000. baht. They are clean and certainly ok for the time we spend in the room. They have a large swimming pool shared by other Sawasdee hotels. They use to supply coffee equipment in the rooms but have done away with that. They are cutting expenses but yet keeping competitive prices. LK metro on soi Diana very expensive as other LK's are. Areca Lodge is also very expensive but your paying the more modern and spacey rooms. I rather keep my money for other entertainment if you know what I mean. I am handicapped and I need an elevator to get to upper level rooms. I once stayed at Sawasdee on soi Honey but only 1 flight of stairs which was not so bad. soi Diana and soi bukkhao is getting to be a very popular area. Every year more and more people. soi Diana does not have many good food places. Robin Nest sometimes have daily specials like spaghetti or lasgna which is decent. Even Kiss foods which my friend told me. It is cheap but certainly not the good quality I expected. I have difficult time eating Thai food because of spices do not exactly like to be in my stomach. So I therefore appreciate.good western food in Thailand. My friend is somewhat cheap. and he uses airline 1st class emirates to Thailand but he will eat at the most cheap places like on 2nd road at Apex hotel have a buffet breakfast which you buy coupons for a week or more and it comes to about 1.50 per breakfast. I went with him and I barely ate anything. The eggs, bread, orange juice etc. were all of poor quality. I enjoy a good breakfast and I started with buffet breakfast at LK Royal, then I switched to Kun Food on corner soi bukkhao and soi new plaza. Further North on on soi new plaza near 2nd road, there is a great fish and chips place. There use to be a really good fish and chips south of soi diana and soi bukkhao but they changed owner and the quality has gone down. When I use the word 'good', I mean quality as good as North America and cheaper than North American prices. (since I'm Canadian, thats good enough for me). Again searching for good breakfast, then I found Cafe Pitini on soi bukkhao near tree town. Great breakfast for the price and always busy. The resturant owned by a Swedish person across from Boston Pizza on soi diana is very good but pricey. On the corner of soi bukkhao and soi diana, there is a street food vendor that sells spaghetti. It is very, very good for the price. The previous owner was a really good looking lady boy and as of 2019 have a new owner. They have kept the taste exactly as is. My wife and I tend to eat quite a bit Central Festival Plaza at the food fair. Its ok for somewhat decent quality food and cheap prices. We ate 3 times at Sizzler's and last time, we both got quite sick with diahirra. I think it was the salad. The pizza company is very good. I think its better than pizza hut. Even in Udon Thani, pizza company very good. Well thats about all I can say for now. OH 1 last important thing. Never leave any bags on a bus when traveling around the country. Leaving Udon Thani and then going from Bangkok bus station the Pattaya bus station, the bus stopped for a 15 minute fuel fill up. I left my backpack on the bus and discovered someone stole 10k baht and important usb key with photos from my backpack. They made all the passengers get off for that time. I only found out when I got back to my room. Couldn't call police because had no proof what so ever. My wife was with me. It was the only time my backpack was out of my sight the time I was in Thailand. On bus from Udon Thani to Bangkok, I spent some money, therefore I knew it was not that part of the trip. Take care.
No I do not live in Thailand. I said I have been coming to Thsiland since 1999 and Pattaya since mid 2000..
Man that was the longest COMMENT I have gotten . I was born in Winnipeg lol! Did u enjoy the video?
Hahahaha u are funny
@@slyman6666 I somewhat enjoyed it. I like the speed you go cause many walk by so fast taking video that you dont get to see anything. Someday I will take some video with interviews of the ladies on beach road. Also Puket is an interesting place. Good for families. Difficult to get around because of winding streets and not so many tuk tuk around. Beaches are fantastic. The sands get extremely hot. But I love taking the boats to the islands near Pattaya. Anyway enjoy.
@@Joh750 cheers & thank u
