Situated in the heart of Pattaya, the Montien Hotel enjoys a commanding
location facing the beach and the ocean, while all of the resort's sporting,
entertainment and shopping attractions are within easy reach.
Pattaya...once called Asia's Queen of Resorts, is still holding
its own as a paradise for sun, sea and sand lovers and is often referred
to as the Thai Riviera.
Located just 147 kilometers southeast
of Bangkok, the resort has become a very popular get-away for locals
and overseas visitors alike. A lot has since been done to upgrade the
city, which now provides up-to-date amenities, shopping facilities and

long. There is just about everything available to keep you fully occupied.
It is also a popular venue for international seminars, conventions and
trade shows.
