Our stay at the Brighton Grand Hotel was terrific. From check in to departure, they couldn't do enough for us. There is a free shuttle into town on the hour and they will pick you up again if you request it. Also a free shuttle down to the beach. There is also a "golf cart" lift from the front door to the main street. If you use the local taxis the cost for 2 people from the town to the hotel, or visa versa, is only a 20 baht
I am gluten intolerant so when we went for breakfast I asked if they had gluten free bread. They didn't understand so, out came the senior waiters mobile phone, i typed in "gluten free", he read the result, and from then on every morning i was brought a plate with gluten free bread, gluten free cakes, etc,etc. all cooked by the chef. They even cooked us a special gluten free Thai breakfast on occasions.
At one stage we had some very noisy neighbours. I went to the front desk and within half an hour we were moved to a superior room.
The bell boys out front were great. You have to get your beach towels from them, and every time, they were polite, and we had a laugh and joke together.
If we go back to Pattaya we will certaily stay there again. I would recommend this hotel to anyone.
