The Property — B2 Premier
A no-frills three-star, B2 Premier offers clean, compact rooms with a functional desk and decent WiFi, aimed squarely at budget-conscious travellers who want a base near Pattaya’s nightlife and beaches. The lobby is fluorescent-lit, sparse and efficient — you check in at a long counter, grab a keycard and head straight to your room. There’s no pool, no restaurant; it’s a stripped-back, urban sleep-and-go hotel that suits short-stay tourists or business visitors on a tight schedule.
Chronicles of Chon Buri
Chon Buri province has been a maritime and agricultural hub for centuries, with its name meaning ‘city of water’. The modern city expanded rapidly in the 1970s as Pattaya transformed from a fishing village into Thailand’s premier beach resort, fuelled by US military R&R during the Vietnam War. Since the 2000s, Chon Buri proper has developed a dense commercial core of shopping malls, condominiums and industrial estates, part of the Eastern Economic Corridor megaproject. Today it mixes a working port economy with sprawling suburban retail parks, preserving few colonial-era structures but gaining a distinctly utilitarian, fast-growing character.
Best Time to Visit
Full Chon Buri guide →Best months
December and January, when northeast monsoons bring low humidity, clear skies and temperatures around 25–30°C; also late November, for calm seas and fewer tourists than the Christmas peak.
Peak / festival surge
April is the hottest month (often 35°C+) and includes Songkran (Thai New Year, 13–15 April), when water fights and temple visits draw domestic and international crowds. Hotel prices in Pattaya can double; book months ahead.
Budget shoulder season
May and September–October are the rainier, cheaper shoulder months: humidity is high but hotel rates drop 30–50%, and you’ll have beaches and attractions to yourself between showers.
Weather & packing
June brings the southwest monsoon, with short afternoon downpours but still many sunny hours. Pack a lightweight rain jacket or compact umbrella, sandals that dry fast, and 100% cotton clothing — polyester will cling in the humidity.
Live City Briefing — Chon Buri
- Pattaya’s Hop-On Hop-Off bus now runs a route covering Jomtien Beach, Walking Street and Central Festival mall; tickets can be bought via local convenience stores.
- The new Chon Buri skywalk at Khao Phra Phutthabat opened in early 2026, offering 360° views of the city and Pattaya Bay — entry is 50 baht for tourists.
- Several baht-bus routes in north Pattaya have been rerouted due to ongoing road widening on Sukhumvit Road near the B2 Premier; expect slight delays when heading to the beach.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to B2 Premier, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 3rd floor facing away from Long Had Bangsaen Road (south side). These are highest above street traffic and furthest from any road noise. If available, ask for a corner unit on that floor for extra window light and less noise from neighbours.
Rooms to avoid
Skip rooms on the 1st floor, especially those facing Long Had Bangsaen Soi 16 or Sukhumvit Road. These are closest to street level and the first-come car park, so noise from traffic and late-arriving guests is worse. Also avoid rooms directly opposite the lift shaft on any floor – the single elevator clunks and you hear waiting guests.
Best views
Rooms on the south side of the building look over the car park and a strip of greenery towards Sukhumvit Road – not scenic but relatively open. Rooms on the north side face the back of neighbouring shophouses and a service alley, so no view worth mentioning.
Quietest floors
3rd floor (top floor) is quietest. The 2nd floor is a good second choice if top floor is booked.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Long Had Bangsaen Soi 16 and Sukhumvit Road is constant during the day and dies down after midnight but never fully silent. The lift is audible in adjacent rooms when it moves, especially early morning. Car park users sometimes chat under windows on the 1st floor.
Insider tips
1) Parking fills up by 5pm on weekends – arrive early or use the free bays at Central Marina (1 km south, no charge for the first 2 hours with a receipt from any shop). 2) Ask at check-in for a room on the 3rd floor facing the car park (south side) – that's the quietest side with the best chance of a decent view. No room numbers to request, but floor and orientation are what matter.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Top Attractions in Chon Buri
💡 Arrive by 09:00 to catch the morning tiger show before crowds. Bring water—drinks inside are overpriced. The crocodile show is included in the free entry.

💡 Go late afternoon to avoid heat and catch sunset over the bay. Bring small coins for donation boxes and keep bags zipped—monkeys grab loose items.
💡 Hire a bicycle from shops near the pier for 40 baht per hour. The nearby Bangsaen Weekend Market (Sat-Sun) offers cheap grilled seafood starting at 30 baht.
💡 Rent a bicycle at the main gate (50 baht) to cover the 8km loop. Buy bags of carrots or bananas from vendors outside the zoo for 20 baht to feed the giraffes legally.
