Hua Hin Forum

Perhaps this is more hoping more than willing to be realistic. I was in a travel agent last week in Singapore booking some flights to Hong Kong. Got chatting with the girl working in the travel agents and she said that the low cost offshoot of Singapore airlines was planning to fly to Hau Hin. Not t...

Nice map, when the entire new infrastructure likely to be in place?

God I hope its doesn’t get anything like Pattaya

without getting into the argument of the + & - of buying houses in Thailand

bought a house in HH about 3 years ago for 5,000,000 and got offered 7,000,000 a few weeks back so its been alright from my point of veiw

Guys Thanks for the feedback, They did look like mainly Thai karaoke places. One place on the left (the one with heaps of bright lights) while driving away from the town center were advertising in English a live band at the weekends so I guess they are at least hoping on getting the tourist trade up...

Dont suppose you know what like any of them are like? whats the name of the falang bar?

I have a house that side of town and pass them on the way home and thought they might make an convenient stopping point for a night cap on the way home from town.

must explore on my next visit

Cheers

Has anyone been to any of the new bars that seem to have opened lately across the railway line on canal road, I'm normally in HH every 8 weeks for a week or so and noticed there seemed to be a load of new bars open last time I was there. They did look kind of quiet from the outside and never had eno...

Hi Dave Is it pretty easy to buy a bike in HH or even Thailand, looking at something along the lines of a crusier, Honda shadow sprint 750 or something like that. I've seen some articals about import tax being 100% on big bikes so was hopeing to pick one up there when i eventually move there after h...

John I've seen some of these girls in the 5 star hotels, so elegant and beautiful, I.....you should count yourself lucky..... I think any girl regardless of what she dose for a living if she likes you and your a decent guy she will naturally want to spend some time with you, to answer your question ...

Theres also one at the Marriot hotel that sits over looking the beach, a bit pricy but really nice spot. I think its called CIA

Hope this helps

Cheers

Gary I’m new to the Thailand ex-pat thing also, although have been an Asia ex-pat for the last 9 years so have a reasonable understanding of the Asian culture etc. Just bought a house in HH, planning on staying there about 3 months a year but perhaps more if work cycles permit. I’ve been to HH s...

Thanks for all the info, much appreciated!! The reasons I want to set up a Thai account is I have just bought a house in HH but will only be there about 2-3 month a year so I need a small account to pay, public fee, gardener bills, maintenance etc when I’m not there. The other reason was just to h...

Guys Not to compare HH with Bangkok, it’s only because I know Bangkok a little bit. Are there any bars like Gulliver’s (Soi 5) where you can go and play pool with a good atmosphere and good crowd etc Also is there any places like CM2 disco (Novotel Bangkok) in HH not that I’m a great disco fan...

Cheers, sounds good to me.

One other question, how long does it normally take for money to clear if its been sent from overseas into a Thai bank?

Thanks again
