In Thailand you can find luxury hotels in many places such as Bangkok, Koh Samui, Koh Phi Phi, Phuket, Hua Hin and Pattaya with high international standards. In middle class hotels (starting from 800 Baht) you can ask for discount.
The accommodation can also be booked prior to your departure from your home country or while traveling via internet. You can do this either directly or you can use a reservation service.
Reservation offices that operate for whole Thailand usually offer more expensive hotels, while local agencies, which are often managed by foreigners, offer middle class accommodation as well. A deposit (about 30 %) is required to make a reservation for the booking, paid by credit card or bank draft.
The best bungalow resorts in Thailand (according to the opinion of our research team) will be bookable from this website within a short time. We have chosen 4 to 6 bungalow resorts for each tourist place, which we know for a long time and we can recommend without any reservation.
Among them is Ao Nang Cliff View Resort in Ao Nang or Nang Thong Bay Resort in Khao Lak. They offer bungalow accommodation for room rates from 1000 to 3000 Baht per night and our reservation service does not add any extra charge. The booking procedure is individually handled by our experienced tourism experts who are doing successful and correct email internet bookings for 10 years. As an additional service we can also arrange free transfer on request.
However, our experts will not recommend you a certain accommodation. You have to choose on your own according to the information provided on this website. When you have made your decision, our experts are ready to help you, as they know every bungalow of “your” resort.
Budget Hotels Hotels with simple comfort are listed in this ranking. However, the rooms usually come with fan or air-conditioning and private bathroom. You cannot expect more. Hotels in the provinces have often a signboard only in Thai language. The most quiet rooms are the one in the back, not facing the street. The room rate depends on the kind of room but not on the number of people sleeping there. These hotels sometimes offer hourly rates as well.
Middle Class Hotels – low ranking They offer rooms with fan and rooms with air-conditioning and they are usually equipped with telephone and often with refrigerator (minibar) and TV as well. They have an attached bathroom with a sink, shower or bathtub and toilet. A swimming pool might be a rare pleasure.
Middle Class Hotels – middle ranking The rooms are comfortably furnished, partially with carpet. The equipment includes air-conditioning, telephone, refrigerator (minibar) and TV. They have an attached bathroom with a sink, shower or bathtub and toilet. Hot water is available 24 hours. There is a swimming pool as well; furthermore, a hairdresser (barber shop or beauty parlor), souvenir shop and travel agency.
Middle Class Hotels – high ranking Generously furnished rooms with air-conditioning, telephone, refrigerator (minibar) and TV/video. Besides a swimming pool there is a hairdresser (barber shop or beauty parlor), night club, souvenir shop, newspaper stand and travel agency.
First Class Hotels Hotels with all comfort and luxury that does not need any further description. These hotels often belong to international hotel groups such as Hilton, Intercontinental or Ramada.
Resorts This term has become widely used for accommodation in all price classes, especially for those chosen by foreign tourists for their holiday. It seems quite funny that even places with simple bamboo huts boastfully call themselves 'Resort'. However, our website will leave no doubts about this matter.
