It won't be a taxi as such, I'm staying at the Hilton, will get one of their limos to take me. Costs more but worth it.

There's still the "airport" bus option, which is much cheaper than a taxi Thanks for the suggestion and the price is good. But must admit I prefer my creature comforts, so will taxi it. I was more concerned about the time element - 5-6 hours compared to 2 on the ferry, plus however you tr...

This is a real bummer for me. I'm coming to Thailand on Sept 30th and going to Hua Hin from 3rd to 6th. I booked and paid for the ferry online for Oct 6th for two people. I was expecting real hassle getting my money back, but thankfully got an email on Monday from the online company saying they'll b...

The last time I spoke to the keyboard player, he was on the wagon so perhaps the name change is justified! The keyboard player (Lom) has actually left. He had a "calling" and is now a monk.... That explains why I don't see him around anymore! Some years ago, he often used to come and have...

They've been "Stoned Head" since 2013, so therefore in this 5th year anniversary of the thread we declare them sober and un-stoned! :wink: :laugh: Pete :cheers: The last time I spoke to the keyboard player, he was on the wagon so perhaps the name change is justified! The keyboard player (...

I applaud Le Bar Francais for trying to offer something a little different and for me it was obvious what the gist was with the reference to the ladies they're trying to attract and therefore those they're not trying to attract. While not a resident in HH I do visit on a regular basis and it's nice ...

My 2 mates and I had a walk up Soi 80 last week during our trip - it was completely dead. We did stop in one bar as we saw a guy we knew and had a beer, but it was really disappointing. Very few customers in any of the bars, some bars had only a couple of girls sitting inside who made no effort to a...

As ste860 said, pop into Murphy's and speak to the lead guitarist/singer of the Stonehead Band. His name is Cartoon. He'll be able to advise as they have made their own CD's.

As this thread has reared it's head again, as the OP, I thought I'd give a short update after my latest trip to HH, albeit a few months ago, in May. As I mentioned in the original thread, my trip in February was the first time I'd been to HH in high season. I won't go again in high season, that's fo...

El Murphys band is excellent. Hilton girls try hard but very average. 220 baht for a G&T, but it is a very nice G&T. El Murphy's band is absolutely excellent. I normally stay at Hilton when in HH - the disco/night club is somewhere I avoid like the plague. It doesn't have it's own bargirls,...

Yes, I saw that thread too and decided to leave it well alone. Although difficult, it would be great to keep HH for the more discerning punter. Being English too I just cannot stand the popular bars in the UK and the yobbish behaviour of the drunken louts we seem to nurture. Get them all to Pattaya,...

and no doubt this has darkened your view of Hua Hin. Don't let it, this sort of thing happens all over the World and HH is no different. I always enjoyed the bars in HH and never encountered any trouble, but then I knew which areas to avoid and I was always home early. :cry: Agree with KD, I drank ...

You saw one bar brawl. That's 100% more than seeing none. It's also one more. I was next to a fight last November in a restaurant. Heard some menacing words behind me, the thud of a body hitting the ground, then looked around and saw 60+ year old man standing over an 70+ year old man on the floor. ...

After coming to HH for so many years and frequenting that same area many times with absolutely no issues I do need convincing it's a one off. When the first incident I described happened, in the aftermath I chatted to a few people who said fights were becoming more prevalent nowadays, normally caus...
