Hotels in Thailand

If you’re in Thailand for a taste of Thai cuisine and nightlife, head straight into Bangkok. It is, of course, the nightlife capital of Thailand, and Khaosan Road and Thonglor are famous across the globe. Nonetheless, this city is more than a haven for party lovers. It is also home to Nham, a popular Thai restaurant serving everything from Massaman curry to Japanese and Chinese cuisine. If you’ve already tried option A, option B would be Phuket. It is one of the best beach resorts in Thailand, offering beautiful beaches, wild nights, and delicious Thai cuisine. When it comes to seafood, there’s no place in Thailand doing it like they do in Phuket. Popular dishes like Pla Kapung Neung Manao (steamed lime fish) hit different when you’re in Phuket. Some good Thailand hotels in the region are Avista Hideaway Phuket Patong and Le Méridien Phuket Beach Resort. Another mention-worthy city for foodies and nightlife enthusiasts is Chiang Mai, northern Thailand’s biggest city.

Buriram is one of the cities to visit if you’re deep into Thai culture. It is home to Phanom Rung Historical Park, an important historical site in Isan, south of the Buriram city center. It is one of Thailand’s most famous sites, and the highlight is usually early April and early September when people swarm to see the sun shining through the 15 gates of the castle. You have to pay to access this park. The island of Ayutthaya is another historical hotspot, and the crumbling remains of this kingdom are the main attraction. People visit Ayutthaya throughout the year to see the skeletal remains of the city, and you are allowed to walk through the park freely and explore the amazing architecture. Visitors need to pay to access this park. Bangkok is another city rich in culture, history, and art. If you love contemporary art, the Bangkok University Gallery hosts occasional shows and there’s no entry fee. Thailand hotels, such as Millennium Hilton Bangkok, will be a great option for a culture trip across this city.

If you are looking to save money on your hotel room in Thailand, consider visiting the country in August as it is the least expensive month at just R209 per night. Avoid booking a hotel room in December if you are looking for a deal; it is the most expensive month.

As many would assume, more people stay in Patong than in any other city while visiting Thailand.

Visiting and staying overnight in Ko Phi Phi will cost you a premium compared to the rest of Thailand. Expect to pay R695 per night, a rate that is about 46% more than the country’s average.

The least expensive city in Thailand to stay in is Bangkok. With an average rate of R133 per night, Bangkok is about 69% less expensive than other cities in Thailand.
