The Imperial Hotel / ? new shopping mall

[Bazle]

(N.B. Mods, I'm starting a new topic, rather than post in an existing one, as I think there could be a lot more to say about this over the next couple of years.)

The Imperial (previously Montien) Hotel was a hotel set in grounds occupying an extensive plot of land bordered on the west side by Beach Road, on the north by the Hard Rock Hotel, on the east by Second Road, and on the south by Sea Terrace restaurant (edit: and several other businesses).

View from the south

It is now boarded up on the Beach Road and Second Road sides, and its sign on Beach Road covered over.

The website for the hotel says:

Here is a review on Trip Adviser from March 2018:

The comments there seem to be confirmed by a recent item in Pattaya News Flash (http://www.pattayanewsflash.com) which says:

Another shopping centre is being built behind these barriers.

Beerli-Jucker, the current owner of BigC and Makro, is building a Mall and Hotel on a plot located between Pattaya Beach Road and 2nd Road.

There's no sign of building work commencing at this point. It will be an enormous project if it ever gets off the ground.

Another one to watch is just the other side of Second Road, taking in the sites of the Grand Sole Hotel and the shop houses to the north of it - i.e. from the entrance to Centric Sea up to Soi 4.

According to Nick Dean (NDTVi), the plot is going to be the site of a Marriott Mega Hotel -

 

That seems to tie in with information reported here:

Here we go......I’m sure Pattaya needs another mega hotel as much as they need another big shopping mall

I used to drink in this Imperial hotel in Gympie back in the early 90s.

TeeSuckHuaNon posted details on their Facebook page. 

The project is proposed to have five big hotels inside which are JW Marriott, The Auto Graph Collection, Marriott Marquis (with a huge convention center), Kimptons Hotel, and Vignette Collection (which will be apart from the main building).

TPN media has discussed this project previously, which has been in discussion since before the Covid19 pandemic, and notes that a solid completion date or overall timeframe for the project has not been given.
