Best Hotels near Central Festival Hatyai, Hat Yai

Had a chance to check into Sakura Budget Hotel in Hatyai recently and found the hotel to be your average budget hotel. Priced at only about 600b per night, the Sakura Budget Hotel is located a little off downtown Hatyai (Lee Garden area) but if you have a car it is not a problem ~ only a 10 minute drive away. Check in is easy ~ 300b deposit and the staff is friendly and can converse ok in English. The hotel is quite big and they also have some 'partner retailers' from convenient shop to salon to a few restaurants including a Thai, a Japanese and a Thai Muslim outlet. Room is not too big, probably about 20 sqm with a small bathroom. Bathroom is basic with shower, wc and basin all in one - prefer a separate stall to keep the toilet dry. Room wise, I got a twin bedded room. The bed is slightly hard but ok for me. Pillows are firm. Room also come with a working desk, a mini refridgerator, LED TV, hot water making facilities and an open hanger. What i would have wished for would be for a power plug beside the bed for device charging convenience. There is a window but nothing interesting outside to see. Parking is ample and easily accessible from Rajyindee Road, one of the main road in Hatyai. For 600b I would say its not too bad of a hotel to stay but at that price range there are quite a few others in Hatyai that I would prefer over this.

The prices are quite ok. I booked RM73 for double apartment in Booking.com. Not hard to find and the location also quite strategic. A dimsum restaurant is nearby, and not far from the Central Festival. Most important is the staffs were really friendly and willing to help. They even help us to find a taxi during peak hour and try very best to negotiate for a good price (we left not much baht that time).

Stayed in Hat Yai for an overnight stay. Last minute booking. The place was near the Central Mall. Not walking distance near but probably near by car/grab. The place is within like a small village so it might be tricky going in and out of the place. It's a small space but it's clean. The bed was very hard. If you have back problems, better book the deluxe rooms. Totally wouldn't recommend the standard room if you are after comfort. It is cheap and clean and near so probably is good for long term backpack stay. The staff at least the receptionist speaks very good English. The other staff were very friendly and is always smiling. The lift is old but serviceable. And since it is located within a small urban village, the security is to be desired for. Easily anyone can literally scratch your car as they don't have proper parking space. You'd have leave your car unattended in front of the hotel. Biggest upside is probably location, cleanliness and staff friendliness. Biggest downside is car parking security and bed on the standard room.

Pro: amenities complete, towel change everyday, cold air-cond. Room size just nice, fit for one praying mat. Receptionist able to converse in Bahasa and English. Location not busy, nearby 7E. Con: Location 1km to Lee Garden/Hatyai Junction. Can walk but quite tiring. Old interior but cozy enough.

The quality of affordable accommodation is better than the location near the price center. Symptoms are easy to find. The service is good. Next time I have the opportunity to use the service again

We booked this hotel for swimming pool as we travel with child. The swimming pool was out of work and looks it’s since a long time. Room looked enough clean but many small animal inside which went into my coffee and my clothes, toilet was dirty, especially the bath tube and his tent. People use to smoke in the corridor and the smell is all around the floor. I found two sigarettes on the floor, which is covered with carpet. It’s a matter of safeness more than a matter of cleaning.. At check in they asked me to keep my passport and it’s first time in my traveller life, then as I refuse we agree for a deposit of 500 bath but I kept my passport. Anyway people at the desk were nice. Hotel need to be renovated, definitely.

Stay for 2 night. Overall ok. Staff very friendly, they also find us a tuk2.. deposit 500bhat.. room & toilet so big & clean. Recomended. Will choose again to stay next trip. con: wifi a bit slow. can't watch tv

Clean and spacious. The hotel is far from Lee Garden's old markets and bus terminal. Going by tuk tuk takes about 20 baht per person. This place is closer to night bazaars. Will recommend for young people. Older travellers may prefer to stay nearer to Lee Gardens for market eats.

This hotel located in very strategic location. It is very convenient to shopping around. Included Kin Yong Market and Lee Garden Night Market. And also near by to famous Chiu Ge Pork Leg rice stall. Their maintenance service also very efficiency. The room air cond very cold even under 36 degrees weather in Hatyai. They also provide connecting room so our kid can stay next room to us. My family enjoy the stay with this hotel
