 | Thailand is a unique country since it offers activities and places to
stay to meet any budget and level of adventure. This guide provides you
with information about hotels in Thailand.
Thailand is known for its friendly people and hospitality, making travelers feel comfortable as if they are in their own homes. The hospitality extends into Thailand's hotels and other accommodations, offering travelers a range of choice between five star resorts to more affordable options. When selecting a hotel consider price as well as the hotel's location. For example, if you plan to go hiking a lot you should book a hotel near the areas you plan to visit to reduce commuting time and make you overall experience more pleasant. If you enjoy the water, or want to spend a lot of time on a beach, consider a resort hotel located on a beach to enhance your stay - you'll be able to simply walk out of your hotel room to visit the beach instead of having to make a trip of it. Hotels offer a variety of amenities like internet access, workout areas, restaurant, 24 hour room service, and more. Unlike in America, where often wireless internet access is available from your room, many hotels only offer internet access in specific places, and you may not be able to use your own laptop or tablet computer to access the internet. Television is often an extra service too - while you can get local channels for free, you may have to pay for other channels and programming. Always ask about services like wireless internet and other services that are important to you before you book so that there aren't any surprises. In Bangkok, hotels near the airport like the Airport Grand Resort near Suvarnabhumi International Airport offer great locations and features. Hotels slightly further away from the airport often offer free nights’ accommodation and often cater to travelers like newly-weds. Hotels like the Ravindra and Cosy Beach hotel, both located on the beaches in Pataya, offer travelers a resort experience. The Four Seasons Tented Camp Golden Triangle hotel, located in Chiang Rai in the northern part of Thailand near the border with Myanmar, offers a unique experience for travelers. The hotel is setup like a luxurious 19th century camp that offers elephant rides through the forest, walks through the forest canopy, tracks to the jungle, cooking lessons, traditional craft classes and more. Accommodations feature deluxe tents with about 500 square feet of space, plus a 300 square foot deck with all of the appointments of a luxury hotel room. Persons with disabilities are advised to contact the hotel to determine if the hotel can accommodate their particular disability, due to the hotel's unique location and layout. Hotel prices in Thailand are generally higher during peak tourist season between November to February, regardless of the region you visit. Prices drop quite a bit during the off-tourist season with many hotels offering incentives like free nights and upgrades. Hotels in Thailand are as varied as the regions and people that make up this beautiful country. Ask about features that are important to you before booking, and consider your planned activities to make your trip more enjoyable. Hotels In Thailand |
