Senior family’s independent trip to Pattaya 2: INTERCONTINENTAL PATTAYA RESORT 1

Following the previous Avani Pattaya review, I begin the review of the second hotel, InterContinental Pattaya Resort.

​​First of all, to conclude,’We didn’t get to enjoy the really nice hotel.

That’s why I definitely want to go again.

’ ^^As you can see from Taecho’s hotel introduction, it is a truly luxurious resort with a large site, good views, and good service.

Plus, this time we got one of the three rooms upgraded to a suite.

However, this caused some inconvenience to us, and we were unable to enjoy the hotel’s hospitality and services.

I will write this story in detail later.

​Let’s go into the hotel.

​.

It’s grand from the entrance.

^^I arrived a little after 3 o’clock, using two Boltro taxis.

Image

Image

Image

This is a lobby I really liked.

As soon as I walked in, I was amazed by the view and the wind was blowing gently, which made me feel really good.

^^You can check in at 4 desks.

The lobby is on the third floor of the building.

It overlooks the entire hotel.

The breakfast restaurant is on the 2nd floor, and there is a fitness center and kids club on the 1st floor.

​We booked 3 classic ocean view rooms.

Here too, I sent an email in advance regarding the room location.

InterContinental Pattaya does not have regular connecting rooms.

So, I asked for a room adjacent to it if possible.

It’s not possible in the room right next door (to be precise, it’s the front room, where the door faces).

Place the two relatively close together on the same floor,One was upgraded to a suite.

Kya~~I was very happy with the unexpected gift and decided to stay in my younger siblings’ room, but they told me to wait a little longer because they had to make two beds and one of the ocean view rooms was not ready.

They gave me a drink coupon, so I waited for 30 minutes at the breakfast restaurant Elements with excitement.

​A buggy will take you to your room.

As we go, they tell us about the swimming pool, the breakfast restaurant, etc.

and give us a welcome greeting.

​These are Classic Ocean View Rooms 411 and 408.

But suddenly, we had to exchange our room with my younger siblings’ suite.

This story is also later.

hahaBecause we were changing rooms all at once, I wasn’t able to take a proper picture of the ocean view room.

I thought my younger siblings took the picture, but I didn’t even think about it.

So I took some photos from the website, but it’s a shame they aren’t detailed.

Image

Image

Image

Because the ceiling was high, the room seemed larger and more comfortable.

I didn’t think it was an old resort.

There is a large desk and a single armchair.

Although the furniture was heavy and showed its age, it didn’t feel old.

Also, there was a capsule coffee machine (not Nespresso).

There are 4 basic bottles of water, and there is also a small children’s pack of milk.

It is said that there were two more bottles of water in the bathroom.

^^​And, it is the hottest issue these days.

What are the amenities?This is ‘Byredo’!It was good!^^.

Image

There is also hand wash and body lotion at the sink.

Amenities inall public areas of the hotel are the same.

Toothbrush, toothpaste, comb, gown, iron, umbrella, etc.

were all provided, there were plenty of towels, and the slippers were very thick and nice.

I used a shower filter here too.

Slightly less than Avani?It seems to turn brown after using it for a day.

When coming to Pattaya, I recommend that you bring a shower filter.

​​​Next is the unexpected suite room 541^^​It was located on the second floor of the villa and had an ocean view.

There are so many room types, including full access, king and queen bed combinations, and club rooms in the same villa.

Anyway, there are so many options.

We just got a suite.

The bathroom is half the size of the room.

As you can see in the photo, the toilet and shower room are separated.

It was comfortable to have two sinks and two closets on either side.

All disposable items are provided, and beach slippers are also provided separately.

​.

Image

Image

Image

This space is called a pavilion.

It’s so hot that I can’t stay there for long, but it’s a very attractive place.

There was a drying rack on one side to dry my swimsuit, and it was really healing and nice to have a cup of tea in the morning while listening to the birds and the wind.

Not to mention the sea view.

ah.

I want to go again~~.

Image

Image

Image

I was surprised by how large the minibar was.

There were 6 genuine Nespresso capsules.

It is fully equipped with glasses suitable for different purposes.

Image

If you dial 0 on that phone and call a buggy, it will come right away.

You will use it often.

When you say buggy please, they say something in English, but they’re just asking where you’re going, so don’t be scared and just say your destination in English.

And just wait in front of the house.

If it doesn’t come out, ring the bell.

I explained this to my mom, and she tried it once and immediately changed it.

;;;It’s probably not easy for ordinary seniors, right?.

Image

​.

Image

It’s a great room for families with children, and in fact, there were many family travel groups in the full-access room on the first floor with a similar structure.

Since it is in a remote area, it would be a good idea to choose a club room and use the lounge or use the half board package.

​​Now, you might be wondering what’s missing when it’s so good.

Of course, this only applies to our family.

^^;​As soon as I arrived at my room by buggy, I was admiring the view from the ocean view room on the 4th floor.

My younger siblings who went to their suite receive an urgent phone call.

“My sister and brother-in-law should use this place, we can’t do it! Haha.

”“Huh? Why??”“You’ll find out when you come~”“Then what about Mom?”“We’ll take care of it.

Let’s change rooms.

””.

!’​First of all, they said that the bed was not removable and that the sofa by the window was made into an ex-bed.

The bathroom atmosphere isn’t their type either.

;;.

Image

I think this room structure is suitable for couples or families with children.

Kogonda doesn’t get along well with brothers who are wary of each other, right?Haha, the sofa bed is also small.

So I suddenly had to change rooms, and this wasn’t normal.

The thing that puzzled me the most was that the suite was so far away.

Also, most of the rooms had ramps and stairs, so it was not easy to move large bags without using a buggy.

I was in a hurry, so I just walked, and I was sweating.

The entrance to the suite was a staircase.

ㅠIt took longer than expected to check in and settle into the room, and I was a little tired.

And then I started to worry.

how would my mom get around here?.

​.

Image

The classic ocean view room was also really nice (my husband was jealous of the large desk that wasn’t in the suite haha).

Needless to say, the suite room was nice.

It’s a bit lower, so the beach (artificial beach) and swimming pool are close by.

What kind of luck is this?*^^*However, as you can see from the location of each room, what about going over the mountain and across the water?Since we had to go to meet each other, it took a lot of time and effort to travel.

This is the first unfortunate reason.

Of course, I also used a buggy, but it was inevitable that it would take time.

​The second disappointing reason is the hotel structure.

Almost the entire road consists of buggy slopes and stairs between villas.

It’s not an easy road for us to walk, and there are narrow stairs between the villas, making it like a maze.

I got lost several times on my way to the swimming pool.

Haha, it also felt like I kept passing by someone else’s house.

For this reason, my mother, who has bad knees, could not move around freely.

Although it is a disadvantage only for our family, I don’t think it is a convenient structure for children or the elderly.

Even more so at night.

Actually, I knew a certain amount when I looked into it in advance, but it was more than I expected, so I was quite embarrassed.

​But that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy it.

When mom rests in the room, she has tea time on the balcony with an ocean view, watches Netflix dramas while nagging her sons (it’s a mirrored TV), and does laundry because she’s bored.

Haha, she said.

On the contrary, I think I couldn’t enjoy it properly because I was so worried about being away.

Actually, I was a little tired from going back and forth.

Still, I will continue the story of eating well and playing well in the next episode.

I’m sure no one will wait haha, I’ll come again~^^​​​.
