Pattaya is a city with complicated personalities. For some it is a place to learn about Thai culture, for many it is a shopping paradise, for families it offers a host of activities that everyone can enjoy and for a millions of single men, it's a nightclub centre and a place to meet some of Thailand's most beautiful women.
You can meet Thai girls at bars, go-go bars, at the beach or just about everywhere in this cordial town. The query that guys often ask is where do I find a guest cordial hotel. If I want to ask my new friend back to my hotel, does the hotel welcome an extra guest, is it "girl friendly" or will I be charged a "joiner fee"?

5 Star Hotels
Guest friendly Hotels in Pattaya
While many habitancy think of Pattaya as Asia's most vibrant nightlife centre, this is just one part of the traveler activities in Pattaya. Judging by hotel bookings, the lion's share of hotel earnings is from older couples and families. Hotels target their company at one or more of these traveler groups, so you'll find that the 5 star hotels and house oriented hotels like the larger resort hotels are ordinarily not guest friendly. There's one supreme exception, Pattaya's top rated hotel, the Rabbit Resort on Dongtan beach offers hospitality to all visitors, including their friends.
