Travel from Pattaya Bus Station
The final destination of the Roong Reuang Coach Service (from Morchit and Ekkamai) is the Pattaya Bus Station. This bus station is about 3 km north east of Pattaya Town. Take a taxi or songthaew (converted pick up truck) from the bus station to your resort in Pattaya. It is much too far to walk to the areas where most of the hotels and guest houses are located.
