Avenue Beach Hotel

Avenue Beach Hotel is a 13-room Jomtien property listed 20 metres from the beach.

The Train Resort

The Train Resort is Pattaya's best-known novelty stay: a garden resort near Jomtien where a row of vintage railway carriages has been converted into hotel rooms, parked around a large free-form swimming pool. It leans hard into the theme — a real diesel locomotive and passenger coaches on a length of track, station-style signage, and carriage rooms with the original curved windows — but pairs the gimmick with a genuinely comfortable full-service resort. Alongside the converted-carriage rooms there are standard hotel rooms in a low-rise block, and facilities run deeper than the novelty suggests: the big pool has a jacuzzi and kids' area, plus there's a sauna and spa (the property trades as 'The Train Resort Sauna & Spa'), a restaurant and pool bar, a small fitness room, minigolf and free parking. It sits on the Sukhumvit Road side of the Jomtien/Nong Prue area — set back from the seafront rather than on it, roughly a five-to-ten-minute drive or ride to Jomtien Beach, and handy for the Thepprasit Night Market. Rates are mid-range and usually sit around 1,000–2,000 baht a night, with the carriage rooms priced above the standard rooms; it is popular with families, couples after something different and train enthusiasts. Book the carriage rooms ahead — they sell out first — and confirm current prices before you travel.

Avalon Beach Resort

Avalon Beach Resort is a low-key, four-star beachfront resort at the Dongtan Beach end of Jomtien, where the sand is quieter and greener than central Pattaya. Its selling point is genuine beachfront position paired with space: rooms are unusually large for the price, most come with a proper private balcony, and the grounds run down through tropical planting to an outdoor pool near the sea. There are around 94 rooms, a fitness room, spa treatments and a terrace restaurant (Beach Kitchen) overlooking the pool and water, so it works as a relaxed base for people who want the beach and a swim rather than a party. Couples in particular rate it highly — a beachfront balcony, a peaceful setting and Dongtan's calmer stretch of sand make it a good value romantic pick. It's about 10 minutes by car from central Pattaya, close enough for a night out but far enough to sleep. Rates typically start around 1,500 baht and climb with season and view, keeping it in affordable-to-mid territory for a beachfront four-star. The honest caveats: some rooms and décor feel dated, a few guests flag occasional maintenance niggles, and breakfast gets mixed reviews. Go in wanting space, quiet and a beach-and-pool holiday — not slick, brand-new interiors — and it delivers well for the money.
