This central and very bustling main road lies
parallel to Beach Road, only a couple of
hundred metres inland. In terms of nightlife
and shopping, those staying here are as well
placed as those on Beach Road. Beer bars,
restaurants, shops, malls and hotels line its
sides, and Walking Street is just as accessible.
However, within this densely built-up area,
sea views and spacious facilities are harder to
come by than on Beach Road. Most hotels are
therefore of the budget or mid-range variety,
both on the main road and tucked away in the
numbered sois. While Sois 1 to 6 in the north
are relatively quiet, those south of Central
Pattaya Road (7 to 16) get progressively more
lively
