Thanks again for the info. You are all so helpful. Bob, you might find it interesting. I went to the asiatravel24 site and got this message on their home page:
"Sorry, the website www.asiavoyage24.com has been closed"
I guess their reputation must have been their demise.

TracyB, you're right about hoteltravel.com. They are about $9 cheaper per night. I might use them if nobody has any complaints about them.

I quite liked them..Plus, you can go on their website anytime and look up your reservation and you don't have to pay a deposit...

i will look at that site now and hope i will like it in the future...especially like the no pay aspect....

hua hin often has special deals under each hotel listing so look for that....last year there was book 6 nites and pay for 5 which was a huge savings...

in fairness there is not so much a difference in the reg room rates from one site to the other....in every case the site listed above beats the hus hin site by anywheres from $3-6 per nite...some of this may be exchange conversions rates...i think huahin updates the exchange rate daily...

i see both sites have the same special deals...

huahin charges you for your first nite upon making your reservation....they then charge the remaining amount just before your visit: 10-14 days in advance, unless you are arriving within 7 days and then it is immediate (both systems charge this way for short notice res)...

so i really think they are similar..i will try this new one...

Bob, I was also thinking that the price difference may be due to the exchange rate. The one site quotes in USD and the other in Baht. Good point!

the HH site can easily be converted to $$...just below the prices is a box to insert usa and then prices change to dollars...
