The
Bay
View
is
located
within
walking
distance
of
the
beach,
Walking
Street,
Alcazar
cabaret,
Ripley's
Believe
it
or
Not
and
the
Pattaya
Night
Bazaar
in
a
happening
part
of
town
with
massage
parlours,
restaurants
and
sundry
other
shops
all
within
striking
distance.
The
hotel
is
right
next
to
Central
Festival
mall,
and
is
walking
distance
from
one
of
the
best
street
food
areas
on
Beach
Road.
It
is
a
spacious
and
large
property
with
two
swimming
pools
and
a
separate
kids'
pool
and
play
area
and
is
great
for
a
relaxing
stay.
On
the
whole
we
had
a
great
stay
-
if
anything
is
there
that
can
be
improved,
it
is
the
communication
from
the
hotel.
We
had
asked
for
an
early
check-in
over
email
a
week
prior
to
our
journey
but
never
received
a
reply.
When
we
finally
reached
the
hotel
after
taking
a
red
eye
flight
from
Calcutta,
the
concierge
Ms.
Pui
initially
said
that
the
hotel
could
not
provide
early
check-in
since
they
had
not
confirmed
on
our
mail
(which
was
true)
and
then
said
that
the
hotel
was
full
which
is
why
they
would
be
unable
to
provide
an
early
check-in.
However,
she
then
immediately
said
that
it
would
cost
us
1000
Baht
extra.
When
we
said
we
were
willing
to
pay
the
1000
Baht
she
again
said
that
the
hotel
was
full.
While
this
was
in
itself
okay,
(though
we
found
it
strange
that
she
mentioned
the
money
when
she
had
already
given
a
valid
reason
for
not
checking
us
in)
what
we
did
not
like
was
her
attitude
when
she
mentioned
the
money
which
was
slightly
disrespectful
and
condescending.
Definitely
did
not
leave
a
good
feeling
and
this
is
one
reason
why
I
have
docked
one
star.
The
other
reason
that
I
have
not
given
a
5
star
rating
is
because
the
wing
we
stayed
in
-
the
Garden
Wing,
did
not
have
an
elevator
and
while
for
us
it
was
ok,
this
may
be
a
hassle
for
those
who
are
not
physically
fit.
The
main
building
has
elevators
and
we
felt
that
a
hotel
of
this
size
and
quality
should
have
done
something
about
providing
elevators
in
the
other
building
too,
even
if
they
needed
to
reduce
a
room
in
each
floor
to
retrofit
it.
Anyway,
both
of
these
were
small
irritants
in
an
otherwise
great
stay.
On
the
positive
side,
the
breakfast
is
excellent,
the
lobby,
common
seating
areas
and
other
places
in
the
hotel
are
spacious
and
tastefully
decorated,
and
barring
the
issue
with
the
early
check
in,
every
other
interaction
with
the
staff
was
great.
In
fact
Ms.
Noon
who
was
at
the
front
desk
the
day
we
left
was
gracious
enough
to
give
us
a
late
checkout
and
the
hotel
also
organized
a
drop
to
the
airport
at
a
very
reasonable
rate.
I
would
recommend
the
hotel
and
stay
there
again.
