Hua Hin Forum

Just a quick thanks to the guys at HH taxi. Got picked up from the Pullman G in BKK with the driver being spot on time. Safe good drive to Hua Hin and delivered safely to our hotel. Whole process was very simple with payment made Via Paypal. All emails answered promptly and a good job all round Woul...

I am here at the moment and no problem.Have never ever felt threatened in Hua Hin. Although there are a few lady boys on bikes floating around offering to do allsorts of rude things to you body. Last night they were 2 up on the bikes when I walked home at just after 1.00am when the bars al shut up e...

Reminds me if Winston Bogarde and his time at Chelsea. 4 Year contract, 40-50000 per week and played I think 4 games. Refused all efforts Chelsea did to get rid of him, because no one would match his chelsea wages. So thought that he would see out his contractand get paid for doing sweet FA

Caller, as we won so easy last year we are applying reverse psychology this year. Instead of playing like world beaters for the 1st 5 or 6 games and only dropping a few points (like we did last year), we are playing crap for the 1st 5 or 6 games, that way giving the others a chance. After the initia...

I had a heart attack 3 years ago and after it had happened, I mentioned to my Dr that a few times in the months leading up to it I had the same thing as you have described happening in one of my neck arteries. I could clearly see it happening in the mirror, but thought nothing of it. Apparently I wa...

Heard Arsenal had a new a new shirt sponser in Barclay's Bank. So I suppose everyone will be chanting "There just a Bunch of Bankers"

Cheers Buks, thanks for the head up, will go ahead and contact them

Just interested if anyone here has used to Taxi Huahin service that advertises in HHAD - http://www.taxihuahin.net/ I need to come from the Dusit Thani in BKK and then probably a return as well. Just wanted to know what they are like and if reliable. If no one has used them I will just email them my...

I read somewhere that there are restrictions on batteries in Thailand to protect local producers. High quality imported batteries are not available except OEM batteries . 2-3 years is the norm here for common lead-acid batteries. Not strickly true. Imported "Optima" AGM batteries are avai...

About 2.5 years ago I had a big heart attack and had to have bypass and also main valve replaced. After that happened I had all sorts of problems trying to get cover to include me for my existing conditions. I live in Australia and could get no one I tried to cover me, all were willing to give me no...

Name Taken When you get problem not being able to start your car, the battery is always the 1st thing people replace without checking all avenues 1st. If you can take the battery to get it checked, take it to a garage or Auto Spares shop and get them to check what cranking amps are present in the ba...

Cheers for that Big Boy, much appreciated. Still looking at other options, but came across a Hotel called The Dune. Looked on here and could only find a post from 2008 and nothing later. Any body stayed there recently of know of anyone that has. From all accounts I have read, it seems to be a good p...

Caller, will have to upgrade my current Avtar now as well after the weekend I think. I am aware of the Sofitel being the Centra now, but is still getting good reviews and my GF can get good rates through her job as a travel agent. Have not decided 100% but think that will be staying there anyway. Is...

I know it is a way away from Pattaya, but is the closest that I know. Might be better to get your hotel in Pattaya to organise a transfer, may be cheaper than local taxis.

Just wondered if anyone had stayed at the Lapa Hotel recently and what your thoughts on the property was. Will be in Hua Hin from 30th August for 13-14 nights. Would be looking at about 6 nights there and probably the Sofitel for the rest of the time. Not quiet sure of the Lapa location, but I know ...
