Paborn I cannot believe that you have visited Pattaya many times and do not know Poseiden. If and when you arrive at Jomtien as you enter Jomtien Plaza, it is the hotel on the right corner at the entrance. If you turn around 180 degrees across the highway you will see Lindas.
The soi I mentioned is one soi towards the beach about 70 m from Poseiden. 8Jomtien is on high corner and the bar, I think 3 Roses, the other.
Across the highway opposite is La Bocca perhaps 50m down towards the beach.
My friends like La Bocca for their pizzas, incl lasagna done similar to pizza, I prefer their osso buco or lamb shanks.
Poseiden besides being a great gay hotel, has a fine kitchen as well as excellent wines, The 3 course 550 per night of 3 courses, a nice change.
The place is regularily booked year, after by the same residents returning. If you have not stayed there you should make enquiries,
