This was my second stay, I love this hotel. The rooms are big, excellent sea views, quiet. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The food is excellent. I haven't explored the area, it's not built up, but plan to when I next visit. Love the decorations of the hotel, very British.. but with style.

I have stayed twice at Lord Nelson, love the quiet location and generally get to have the beach to yourself. There is several nice dining options close by including a fantastic fresh seafood restaurant & the hotel restaurant has good menu of European and Thai dishes. A great location to unwind and de-stress. Only negative is the difficulty getting transport out of Bang Chan, its expensive and cant be booked through apps such as Grab.

A little piece of heaven..

Was here for 2 nights,, should have stayed longer, right on the beach. It's not Pattaya, but is only 30minutes drive south.. lovely rooms, lovely food, lovely staff, perfect place to relax and recharge. The hotel is modern with a lift (thank god) as I was on the 5th floor. Breakfast isn't included, but is not expensive, the lunch and dinner menu has a large selection, all the food I had here was good.

Check in was super easy and the lady checking us in was delightful. All the staff were lovely. The lobby and pool area are very nice and its right on the seafront. We has daily housekeeping and a refresh of water etc. Downsides were:- 1. The room... small and in need of a makeover. Scuffed walls, dirty balcony furniture, hard uncomfortable bed, torn bedding, limited storage space. 2. Directly on the beach but you cannot use the facilities until the tide goes out in the afternoon. There is a small pool in the garden. 3. An expensive crab restaurant next door but otherwise nothing much. The hotel serves some snacks until 9pm. You can walk a kilometer and find a few places to eat and a 7/11 and some local shops but otherwise nothing much around other than a fab market shop directly across the road selling allsorts. Booze, drinks, clothes ,shoes, kitchenware, toiletries, snacks but no proper food as such.

Lovely for a relaxing break.

We had a great stay ,Stayed for 3 nights.The staff are as good as you will ever get they where great, the hotel is very clean in every part rooms Toilets the kitchen etc. the breakfast is good but not consistent one day a big plate full with fruit ect the next no fruit and very small plate, our evening dinners where just ok.The beach at the back is nice and clean, There is not much else around so you will need a car, there is a little bar at pier on the right side very friendly and good food.There are also good beaches down near the navy base called by locals 20THB beach.Great to sit and relax and eat there all day

3 night solo trip out of 28

This hotel is located in a quiet area 50kms south of pattaya you will probably need a rental car to get here or a 2000 Thai baht taxi ride from the airport. My room was a seaview one and the view in the morning was fantastic. There is a small beach between the rear of the hotel and the sea. My room was spotless and the wifi was strong and reliable. This hotel is owned by a retired uk navy captain hence its name. If my travels have me in the vicinity again then this hotel will be my first choice. Well done.

Ett jätte fint hotell på fel plats. Dyr mat frukost lunch middag. Saknar buffé frukost kunde ingå i priset. Helt dött utanför. Stranden är ett skämt smal med miljoner sopor. En sopstation alltså. Men går man ut från hotellet till vänster några hundra meter. Möts man av det genuina Thailand. Billig o god mat från små hål i väggen. Varaner i floden.Små affärer Trevligt enkelt o gemytligt som det skall vara i den här delen av Thailand

Ok rum. Hade balkong med havsutsikt. Liten strand som inte gick att vara på varje dag eftersom vattnet ibland gick upp för högt. Poolen ligger mitt i restaurangen så den känns lite märklig att nyttja. Bra mat i restaurangen. Priserna i menyn missvisande eftersom det läggs på 17 procent (service +skatt) på notan.
