I was at Chonburi for a business trip and stayed at the Tide for a week. Our Thai colleagues said it was the best choice in the area and booked it for us. Location - right across the road from the beach, which is just a lot of deckchairs under umbrellas and a short stretch of sand and not very... More

I stayed at the Tide last week when I was visiting Chonburi for business. The hotel is about 1.5 hours drive from Bangkok airport and is literally opposite the beach. First impressions - nice lobby, huge grounds, friendly staff, not bad. The room itself is a pretty good size (average for thailand) and clean. the bathroom however could have been... More

The "best hotel" in Bangsaen, room not very clean, internet never work

Realistically this is the only decent place in town with viewless rooms thanks to the amount of trees in the resort and the line of trees along the beach. We checked in and opted for the deluxe room with 2 "double" beds. In fact they were single beds. Breakfast was better than expected with a lot of variety, but perhaps... More

We found exactly what we were looking for. A place only one and a half hour drive from Bangkok with a nice pool and nice rooms. Tourists are mainly Thai. We arrived Tuesday and checked-out on Sunday. The week days are very quiet. The weekend a lot of Thais stay here. The beach is fun to walk during the late... More

It was my third time at this hotel as, honestly, I could not yet find any better hotel around Bangsaen beach. Room was nicely decorated, but some furniture was already a bit worn out . All the rooms faced the sea but actually no seaview at lower floors all the trees in front of the hotel and along the beach.... More

The Tide was lovely, across the road to the beach with food and clothes stalls to look at. A nice walk to Mr Coffee, or to large shopping complex. The breakfast at Tide was nice, we had dinner there once and was tasty and alot of it. They also had a band playing, they did sing in english most of... More

Bangsaen is a beach resort visited mainly by Thais and not too many farangs (foreigners) so sometimes English communication is not the best! The rooms are nicely appointed and the pool area is very well presented. Staff are very strict on pulling up guests who do not swim in proper bathing costumes (board shorts and UV protection swim shirts so... More
