Compare hotels in Thailand

Just a heads up—if you spend your annual break in Thailand, you might not want to leave. This country has everything, from hilltop villages where time stands still to urban hubs where spicy food is abundant. Located south of Myanmar, north of Malaysia and at the top of your list, Thailand is ready for you to explore. Hotels in Thailand can place you in the centre of Bangkok or among the coconut palms of Koh Samui—either way, it'll be an adventure.

Things to Do in Thailand

City or country—you decide. Starting in Bangkok, you can get in touch with your spiritual side by visiting one of the many temples, then embrace the gods of consumerism at Chatuchak Weekend Market. Thousands of stalls here sell ceramics, furniture and food. You can buy plants too, but really only to liven up your hotel room, as customs on the way home might not look kindly upon your greenery. Next up, all this shopping will make you hungry, so check out Siam Square to eat, shop and eat a little more.

Thailand holidays go beyond the country's capital. In the mood for a beach? Enjoy towering ancient rock formations and caves flush against blue water on the islands of Koh Samui, Phuket or both. And since Thailand also has small villages perched in the hills near Chiang Mai, you might want to take a few extra days to get a culture fix and embrace a slower-paced life.

Can’t get enough of village life? Book Thailand accommodation within a stone’s throw of these communities and spend your days relaxing. Turn off your phone—except to take pictures, of course—and just chill out beneath the palm fronds. You’re welcome.
