Stayed at the Regency Inn. Booked it thru agoda 1200 baht Location... perfect for my buddy and I, 2 great bars right across the street and a very cool "U" section of 15 or more girl friendly bars right there as well ! Spent 3 days/nights and managed to make our way to soi cowboy and nana p...

[quote][/lomuamart The islands you mention are Koh Chang and Koh Payam. I love them both. Koh Chang is the smaller of the two and my favourite. It has no roads and just a few resorts which have a few bungalows among the cashew nut trees and they each have a restaurant and small shop. The ferry gets ...

surprised its not quicker than the train but nice to have another option!

Thx for the replies gents. It should be pretty straight forward and I'll have lots of time to figure it out when im in Hua Hin.

Cheers !

Im lookin at that schedule and I cant seem to find any definative (spelling) info on the exact schedule from Hua Hin to Chumphon by bus ?

Call me stoopid. I think someone will !

Cheers !

Does anyone happen to know the time schedule and how much quicker is it than the train? I usually visit Koh Phayam every trip and rather than take an overnight bus to Ranong which is a pain I take the train and spend a night or 2 in Chumphon, then off to Ranong in the morning ! I briefly looked and ...

I will be doing a visa run to Penang. I have been down to Hat Yai on a previous trip and took the second class sleeper . I thoroughly enjoyed it but I think this trip I will try the first class sleeper to Butterworth station. Has anyone done this trip first class sleeper? It appears that they pull t...

A place I stay at regularly and would thoroughly recommend is the Check Inn Regency Park at 12/3 Soi Sainamthip on Sukhumvit 22. Cost about 1000baht if booked through Agoda (also recommend). Plenty of bars and cheap restaurants around and its just off the Skytrain. I tried to book direct and I was q...

Hey thx fella's for the informative replies. What a great site and what a great place Hua Hin, ill be spending a month there after the few days in Bangkok so i might see some of u arseholes when im over there... JOKE ! Looks like it might be even a bit less that 1500 baht a night for a decent room ....

Will be landing late evening in Bangkok and decided to spend a few days there instead of traveling direct to Hua Hin as normal. I figure we can make a hotel/bar before 1 am but have never spent ANYTIME in Bangkok. Is nana plaza the place? What hotels/rooms are recommended for around 1500 baht Friend...

Thx TTJ I will just bring some new 100's to have some cash in case I have a problem with my bank/visa cards !

Cheers,

Will be heading to Hua Hin soon and am curious if there is any difficulty changing Canadian currency specifically the new $100 bills but Canadian currency in general?

Cheers,

Thanks lomuamart I think your right I will take an earlier train and stay in Chumphon or even get to Ranong. What was the hotel in Chumphon that you suggested? Does it have a pub in it ? Are there any decent pub crawls there ? Thanks for the help here fella's ! Great website. I loved Hua Hin and can...

Ill be in hua hin early February and will visit Koh Phayam which is a ferry from Ranong. I can never sleep on the bus so I might take the train which departs Hua Hin at 11:36 pm and arrives Chumphon at 4:23 am . Times arent great but I love the trains in Thailand. Does anyone know the cost for a fir...
