The beachside town of Pattaya has long been known as a getaway from the bustle of Bangkok, and while many resorts can boast sea views, not many come with beachside access too. Enter the Mövenpick Siam Hotel Pattaya, on the pristine Na Jomtien Beach. Situated just steps away from the Ocean Marina Yacht Club, the hotel is the only international five-star hotel outside of central Pattaya, offering peace and quiet and an unspoilt stretch of beautiful coastline at its doorstep.

The Mövenpick Siam Hotel Pattaya resort has 262 stylish rooms, suites and private pool villas as well spa facilities and an expansive outdoor lagoon pool. Every room is also afforded panoramic views of the Gulf of Thailand.  The resort also presents an array of dining options to satisfy any palette, from its all-day dining of Thai cuisine at Twist, its New York-inspired T55 Grillroom, to its poolside tapas bar La Costa, complete with a swim-up bar. Of course this wouldn’t be a Mövenpick resort without its signature Chocolate Hour, featuring complimentary Swiss chocolates for guests to indulge in.

If you need a helping hand in relaxing, the resort’s spa will do just the trick. The Wave Spa draws inspiration from the sea, with the facility designed with elegantly curved lines and marine hues to evoke a sense of blissful escape. Their team of experienced therapists and masseurs are on hand to relieve even the toughest knots, with Thai and other international-inspired massage therapies, facials and body treatments. For those who would prefer to work out those knots with something a little more strenuous, the Fitness Centre at the Mövenpick Siam Pattaya Hotel is fitted out with all the equipment you might need and more. Couple that with the team of on-site personal trainers, and you’ll never stray too far from your workout goals on this holiday.

Opened in February 2016, the Mövenpick Siam Hotel Pattaya is the latest boost to Pattaya’s growing international reputation, and is infused with the warm sense of quality Swiss hospitality that has become a hallmark of Mövenpick resorts.
