Staying in Hat Yai

Hat Yai is a city built on markets, food and movement. Visitors come for the bustle of Kim Yong Market, the street food and shopping at the Greenway Night Market and the ASEAN Night Bazaar, and greenery such as Hat Yai Municipal Park with its cable car and standing Buddha. It also works as a base for the beaches of Songkhla and the hills inland, and as a stopover on the way to Malaysia or the islands.

The hotels on this shortlist sit close to the centre. The Three Hat Yai is on Niphat Uthit 3 Road, and B2 Hat Yai Boutique & Budget Hotel, New Season Hotel, Wungnoy Hotel, The Habita Hatyai, Monkham Village Hatyai and Buri Sriphu Hotel are all within about a kilometre of it. That puts them within reach of the commercial core, the markets and the evening food stalls, while Ton Aoi Grand Hotel, Z Sleep Hotel, Clover Hotel Hatyai, PS Sriphu Hotel and Neca Reiche Hotel are further out. Couples, families and business travellers all fit here; the area suits short breaks and pass-through stays.
