Thailand offers you two very different experiences all in one place: a very vibrant city life, as well as a soothing, luxurious holiday. There are a lot of 5 star hotels all over Thailand’s most popular tourist destinations, so it all boils down to which area you want to stay in. Thailand is especially popular for its beautiful natural scenery and beaches, and its vast cultural feel. The country is also well known for its very vibrant night and city life.

If you are looking for a city holiday, places like Bangkok and Surat Thani are perfect. Bangkok is especially known for its vibrant city life, especially at night – with some naughty acts, bustling clubs and bars. Surat Thani is a little more unique: while being a commercial hub, it is surrounded by beautiful scenery and sights.

Being the capital city of Thailand, there are many Thailand luxury hotels here like the Mandarin Oriental Bangkok, The Sukhothai Bangkok and many more. Some of the city’s most upscale hotels are located on the banks of the Chao Phraya River. Bangkok is also a great place for looking for great shopping areas. Here, you can find things from international branded items, to precious, unique antiques.

For a city-seaside holiday, there are places like Pattaya, Hua Hin and Cha-Am. Pattaya is a coastal city and has some fantastic luxury hotels here like the Pattaya Marriott, the Hilton and many more. Other than having a vibrant nightlife, great food, shopping and sightseeing, Pattaya has some great beaches and recreational activities available. Hua Hin and Cha-Am are very near from Bangkok, and also have some fantastic hotels. You can visit historical sites, go shopping, or relax at the beach.

Places popular mainly for their breathtaking scenery and stunning seaside include Phuket, Krabi, Koh Chang island, and Koh Samui island. While these places boast their fantastic sceneries and attractions, all of them are equipped with a vibrant night life, recreational activities and shopping. These areas would be great, if you are looking for a relaxing, luxurious holiday by the seaside. Koh Chang island has some great temples and sights; while Krabi is known for its beautiful limestone caves, waterfalls and exotic wildlife.

For those looking for a more cultural feel, but near a city, there is Chiang Mai. This area is famous for its spectacular mountains and hills. But other than its very beautiful natural scenery, Chiang Mai is great for shopping for handicrafts and such, as well as its vibrant nightlife.
