Cozy boutique hotel near walking street
This boutique hotel is steps away from the walking street and 3-5 min from Pattaya beach. It suits our need perfectly. Made-to-order breakfast is great. Staffs are very helpful and friendly. They drop off and pick up from boat station and snorkeling launch. Room may be a bit tight with wet shower/bathroom. Still very clean and cozy.

Basic but great
Not far from Pattaya beach, easy to find - just on a off-road from the main Walking Street. The guy who helped with check-in and most of my stay was great. Good English and really helpful. Helped me to organise my snorkelling tour and transport to the beach when I checked out. Basic room but had everything that you need - hot working shower, cold aircon, a safe and daily cleaning. Breakfast included was good. Free water cooler too.

Great place! Not right on walking street, but extremely close. Good restaurants all around. Complimentary breakfast - which is a full meal (we’re not talking ‘continental’ here, more like: eggs, bacon, toast, sausage, salad and fruit and a drink). The staff were nice and helpful and gave me many suggestions on where to go on the island, and even booked my travel off the island (speed boat, and van to the airport). Great working A/C, and hot water. Did not get one mosquito bite in the room! Nice and quiet atmosphere, and not a loud party hotel. Thanks to Buffalo Thai for making my scuba diving trip calm and relaxing!

Toilet is too small.
The service is good. Owner able to give a lot of suggestion on where to visit and to take photos. Room wise it’s clean and tidy. But the toilet is a bit small even for Asian size. The toilet bowl and the shower is too near to each other. After showered, I do not even have enough space to dry myself without touching the toilet bowl.

We stayed on this beautiful island for 4 nights at Buffalo Thai Cafe. Ben and his staff at delightful , the breakfast excellant although perhaps a small piece of bread with the mixed fruit and veg salad which was fantastic would have helped sustain me through throgh the morning. The room was small but tastefully decorated and had everything we needed, even a sewing repair kit. Buffalo Cafe although it is just off walking street is quiet and very conveniently located. Would definitely recommend staying here

Best honeymoon stay for us
Arrived early from the check-in time, the owner gave us free drinks while waiting for the room. We stayed for 2 nights. Loved the interior and the deco, perfect place to take pictures of a cafe lol. The breakfast was delicious n a great way to start our long day. The staff also gave us tip on where to go and where to take pics on koh lipe, which is a great tip for us. Overall we were satisfied n we would come again soon in the near future. Good job guys!

Excellent place to stay close to walking street but just a block away in a quiet area. The owner was terrific. The rooms are very nice with everything you need. The cafe downstairs offers great tasting drinks and food. I was very happy with my stay there and would stay there again on my next trip.
