A Tribute to History and Culture: Meliá Pattaya Hotel Opens

The wait is over! Meliá Pattaya Hotel has officially opened its doors, welcoming guests to the vibrant heart of Pattaya. Nestled in the vibrant heart of Pattaya, this 234-room hotel is a celebration of the city’s rich ethnic diversity and offers stunning views of the Gulf of Thailand.

A Prime Location and Luxurious Amenities

Located just a short drive from Bangkok, the Meliá Pattaya Hotel stands tall on Second Road, also known as Pattaya Sai Song, amidst an array of attractions. This 12-storey hotel boasts a range of luxurious amenities, including the sun-soaked Lay Beach Club on Beach Road, a rooftop restaurant with a sky bar, an executive lounge, a swimming pool with an adjacent bar and function lawn, Meliá’s signature YHI Spa, a kids club called Kidsdom, a fully-equipped gym, coworking space, and versatile meeting spaces.

A New Era of Hospitality in Thailand

Launched by Spanish hotel group Meliá Hotels International and owned by Thailand’s leading integrated lifestyle real estate group Asset World Corporation (AWC), the Meliá Pattaya Hotel marks another milestone in the Melia brand’s expansion across Thailand. Following the successful openings of Meliá Koh Samui, Meliá Phuket Mai Khao, Meliá Chiang Mai, and INNSiDE By Meliá Bangkok Sukhumvit, this new property is set to redefine luxury hospitality in Pattaya.

Culinary Delights and Cultural Experiences

The hotel’s food and beverage outlets are a tribute to Pattaya’s diverse cultural tapestry. The rooftop restaurant and bar, Yitong Chinese Restaurant & Sky Bar, will serve exquisite Cantonese cuisine with a touch of Sichuan flair, all set against the backdrop of Pattaya’s famous sunsets. The all-day dining restaurant, Sanehh Sarae, showcases fresh, locally sourced seafood and tells the story of Pattaya’s Bang Saray fishing village. Adjacent to Sanehh Sarae is Den, a Japanese-Peruvian Nikkei restaurant that honours the influx of Japanese expats to the Kingdom.

From the moment guests arrive, they are immersed in local culture. The lobby and lounge are inspired by the Nong Mon Market, with surfaces referencing the dish Khao Lam, sticky rice roasted in bamboo. The pool bar nods to Jomtien Beach’s culture and the American influx to Pattaya in the 60s and 70s.

A Range of Accommodation Options

The Meliá Pattaya Hotel offers 218 rooms and 16 suites, ranging from 27 sqm Deluxe Rooms to 125 sqm The Level Presidential Suites. Of the property’s room portfolio, 18 rooms and 16 suites belong to ‘The Level’, an upgraded service category that includes exclusive access to The Level Lounge on the hotel’s second floor. This intimate area is perfect for indulging in an upgraded breakfast and afternoon delicacies or for casual business meetings.

Family-Friendly Features

Families will find plenty to enjoy at the Meliá Pattaya Hotel. The swimming pool features a thrilling slide, and the kids club, Kidsdom, offers a variety of engaging yet educational activities. Designed with an “under the sea” theme inspired by Koh Pai Island, Kidsdom is sure to delight young guests.

A Hub of Activity and Convenience

Located in ‘Central Pattaya’, the hotel provides easy access to attractions such as Pattaya Beach, Walking Street, Central Festival Pattaya, Terminal 21 Shopping Mall, the Sanctuary of Truth, and Bali Hai Pier. Just offshore, islands like Koh Larn offer idyllic spots for swimming and snorkelling.
