We are thinking of going to Thailand and want to know what is the best time of year to go when it's hot. Which are the best resorts to take in. We will def go to Bangkok but might take in a second resort too but not sure where? We were told to just book a couple of nights in a hotel in Bangkok in advance as there are loads of good quality cheaper hotels where can get when we get there - is that right? Can you recommend any good and interesting places we should visit or should try? Any info you give much appreciated.
Hi
When are you going, Pattaya is very good, excellent beaches to the north and south of Pattaya, beautiful little island Koh Samet to the south as well, we were there last year, and might go for a week in May this year
