A Thai guide who works with Chinese tourists fell to his death from the fourth floor of a Pattaya hotel on Wednesday morning.
Police were called to Malibu City Place hotel about 6.30am after Puwasit Chailangka, 48, was found dead in the parking area alongside the hotel building.
Police said the man fell from a room on the fourth floor of the five-storey hotel.
The hotel receptionist told police he heard a loud thud about 6am and at first thought that a power transformer had blown up. Then he heard an alarm sounding.
He followed the sound, and it was coming from a mobile phone. He saw the body and called police.
Police were investigating.
