It features six restaurants and bars including Sea Breeze lobby lounge, The Cliff all day dining, Chom Talay Thai cuisine and seafood restaurant, Bentos Beach Club, Alizees Pool Bar and D'licious, a French-style patisserie and deli. Garden Cliff Resort & Spa also has two multi-tiered infinity swimming pools with easy 'slip in' access from many ground floor rooms. In early 2006 it will also add one of Pattaya's largest and most luxurious spa and fitness complexes.
Pattaya is fast becoming the prefered MICE destination for companies based in Bangkok or on Thailand's busy eastern seaboard. The hotel ballroom can accommodate up to 420 people theatre-style supported by five fully equipped meeting rooms.
The launch of Garden Cliff Spa & Resort Pattaya is part of the largest-ever expansion of Accor's 5-star luxury brand in the Asia Pacific region. There are currently 37 Sofitels operating in key cities and resorts around Asia Pacific, with a further 20 are under development.
