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.

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.

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.

5 days with Lord Nelson

A lovely small run hotel right on the beach. Ideal for a quiet relaxing few days. The sea view from our balcony was great for watching the waves come in and out. My only real criticism was the size of the bed and bathroom. Both on the small size .Overall a great 5 days.

Great for close up beach experience.

Well worth it for the sea view from the room. No beach facilities to speak of. Not commercialized. Bar and food area right on beach a few steps down. Pool is small and hard to use while people are eating. Best to have a car as no local transport available and nowhere to go close by anyway except RomSon sea food on the beach the road. Shower very small. Room is adequate. Breakfast was included and made to order. No bad. Very good service.
