Located directly adjacent to the airport’s terminal, this well-appointed hotel eliminates early-morning flight stress and offers far more amenities than a typical airport stopover, making it ideal for both short layovers and extended city breaks.

Nearby Local Attractions

While the hotel is perfect for airport layovers, three nearby attractions are worth fitting into a longer stay:

• Don Muang Elephant Ground & Zoo: Just 2 kilometers from the hotel, this compact, family-friendly zoo is home to retired working elephants, native Thai wildlife, and a petting zoo for young children. It’s a low-key spot to experience Thai wildlife without traveling hours out of the city.
• Wat Thung Setthi: A 10-minute drive from the hotel, this 19th-century Buddhist temple features stunning gilded chedis, intricate traditional Thai murals, and a peaceful lotus pond. Far less crowded than central Bangkok’s major temples, it offers an authentic glimpse into local religious life.
• Impact Muang Thong Thani: Thailand’s largest exhibition and convention center, located 6 kilometers from the hotel, hosts everything from international trade shows to major concerts and seasonal Thai cultural festivals, making it a popular draw for event-goers.

Travel Tips

If you have an early-morning domestic flight out of Don Muang, book a room one night before your flight to skip the pre-dawn commute from central Bangkok— the hotel is connected to the terminal via a covered walkway, just a 5-minute walk from check-in. For day trips into central Bangkok, the nearby Don Muang BTS station connects to the city’s Skytrain network in 30 minutes. If you’re traveling with children, request a crib or pre-book affordable on-site childcare for a quiet evening by the pool. Always confirm whether extra activities such as billiards or childcare will incur an additional surcharge at check-in.
