Staying at the Season Five Hotel in Pattaya

Season Five Hotel in Pattaya, Thailand
A brand new hotel at date of March 2014, at Soi 5 of Beach Road Pattaya. The hotel is about 200 meter from the beach and has private parking, swimming pool on the 8th floor and a service's breakfast buffet at their small restaurant.

Decoration of the rooms is modern with natural tints. The room has a comfortable bed and a small couch to sit an look TV. The bathroom is big and has a bathtub. The room has a spacious balcony and of course there is airco, TV and mini-bar. The hotel has free wifi in the all hotel.

At the moment the price of the hotel is between 2000 - 2500 depending on the room type and I think it is good value for money. Although there were a few small things to mention. Like the bit noisy airco in the room and the fact that the staff at the lobby is not much service minded. O and another thing is that at the end of street are a few bars and if your room is at the city side you will hear the music in your room. For more photos click on read more. See Season Five Hotel
Location: Pattaya, Bang Lamung District, Chon Buri, Thailand

In and around the nowadays modern city of Ayuthaya are many century old temples of what we did visit 2. And Iin the evening we took the night train to Chiang Mai. In Ayuthaya you still see the famous old TukTuk's, a Daihatsu Midget from the sixties of the last century.

Old houses in Phrae

Image
At a early morning we did drive thru Phrae and besides many beautiful old teak wooden houses be aware that there are many traffic camera's in Phrae town. Our first stop was at Baan Wichairacha, build in 2423 (1880). Unfortunately I could not walk around the house but behind the main building are more old style wooden buildings. And on the left side are unfortunately some modern shophouses that are somehow decorated in a style to match the old teak wooden house. Our second stop was at Baan Chao Nan Chaiwong, that is under renovation and for that reason closed until the end of this year. A last photo from an old style house of what I am not sure if it is actually old. The roof looks modern and brand new. If you like old architecture then Phrae is a must go place!

Image
As part of Living in Thailand, the Rice Field Project follows our journey of buying land and preparing it for building our house. This is part 21, to read the other parts click Rice Field Project.

Last week we did sign an official Design Contract in what we officially give the order to design our house. That sounds a bit weird as we are already about 2 months busy with the design of our to be house. So why? Well until now it was just the floor plan and the roof type. Now at the next stage of design the full design papers will be made incl. all the be used materials and prices. This is a lot of work and they want to be sure that we will pay for that. Pay? Well yes and no. Within the building contract we will have free design of the house but of course it is not free. So we now pay 20.000 Thai baht for the design (architect) and that money we get back after paying the first deposit for the building.

The planning is that within the end of this month (September 2018) the full design will…

Relaxing at Lamai beach

Image
While sitting in the shade of the Bikini Bar & Restaurant and enjoying a fruit shake I was looking to all the people sitting in the hot sun. I think I would be dead within 30min. But people seem to enjoy themselves sunbathing, swimming or making selfies. It is beach life in 2018 at Lamai beach.
