Where to stay in Pattaya: 13 hotels on Jomtien and their downsides

Jomtien Beach is chosen by those who come to Pattaya for peace and quiet. It's the southern part of the city with a long stretch of sand and calm waters of the Gulf of Thailand. There are no loud shows or big entertainment complexes here. Instead, 3-star hotels line the beachfront, and their prices are lower than in the center.

Jomtien stretches for about 6 km and starts 3 km from central Pattaya (as of 09/2026, Tourism Authority of Thailand). That's why the area is quieter and calmer, but the infrastructure is simpler too: public transport runs less often, and there are fewer shops.

Below are 13 3-star hotels in Jomtien on the beachfront or a couple of minutes from the sea. For each one, you'll see who it's for, exactly where it stands, and what its weak point is.

• The second line along Thappraya Road is quieter and cheaper, but you'll walk 5 to 15 minutes to the beach.
• 3-star hotels on the beachfront hold the area's mid-range price level, not the low one.
• Beach and area: 09/2026, checked against the official Jomtien guide

Jomtien hotels from this selection on the map

The map shows all 13 hotels and the Jomtien beach line. Open it to compare how far your hotel is from the sea and where the main streets of the area run. This makes it easier to figure out whether you will need to walk to the beach or take transport.

⁉️🤔 Frequently asked questions

Where is Jomtien and how far is it from central Pattaya?

Jomtien is the southern district of Pattaya on the Gulf of Thailand. The beach stretches for about 6 km, and it is separated from the city center by about 3 km (as of 09/2026, data from the Tourism Authority of Thailand). The drive from Walking Street takes 15-20 minutes. The area is quieter than the center, but transport runs less frequently here, so many people rent a car or motorbike right away.

Which hotels from this selection are right on the beach?

Inn Place is on the first line, and you step out to the beach through the hotel garden. Seaside Jomtien Beach is almost on the beach. From Sea Breeze Jomtien Resort and KP Seaview Jomtien you need to cross the road to reach the sea. Splendid Resort @ Jomtien is 100 m from the recreation area, and Jomtien Plaza Residence is 200 m from the beach. Aiyaree Place Hotel is 300 m from the beach. The other hotels are a few minutes' walk from the sea or farther.

How much does a night in a 3-star hotel in Jomtien cost?

The exact price depends on the season and the booking date, so we do not give figures without confirmation. 3-star hotels on the first line hold the area's average price level, not the low one. Compare dates in advance: in high season there are fewer available rooms by the sea, and prices rise faster.

When is the best time to go to Jomtien?

The dry season lasts from November to February: there is little rain, the sea is calm, and the air is less humid. From March to May it is hotter, and from June to October short downpours are more frequent. For a relaxed stay and walks along the beach, choose the morning: before noon the promenade has few people and it is not as hot.

Are there night markets in Jomtien?

Yes, there are two well-known markets nearby. Thepprasit Night Market is considered the largest in Pattaya, with hundreds of stalls selling street food and grilled seafood. The second one, Jomtien Night Market, is right on the waterfront, closer to the first-line hotels. Opening hours change during holidays, so check them on site.

In short: what to book

If you are a family with children: choose Splendid Resort @ Jomtien or Sea Breeze Jomtien Resort, they have children's pools and greenery. If you are traveling as a couple and want quiet: look at The Jomtien Twelve or D Living Hotel Pattaya @ Jomtien. If budget matters most: Inn Place is by the sea at the area's average price. Duo Residence Jomtien is cheaper, but it is about 700 m to the beach. If you work while traveling: Aiyaree Place Hotel and Seaside Jomtien Beach have a business center and a pool.

First-line hotels get booked faster, so compare dates in advance: the search form above this block will show available rooms for your dates.
