Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Nakhon Si Thammarat City
For the most direct access, Nakhon Si Thammarat International Airport (NST) is the primary choice, being the only airport located within the city itself. It provides the fastest and most budget-friendly transport options, including local taxis and shuttle vans. All other airports serve neighboring regions and involve significantly longer travel times. Surat Thani International Airport (URT) serves Surat Thani city and is a common alternative for travelers arriving from larger hubs, often offering more flight frequency but requiring a 2-hour private or shared transfer. Krabi International Airport (KBV) is situated in the neighboring Krabi province, a coastal region that makes it a convenient gateway for beach-focused itineraries. Samui Airport (USM), located on the island of Koh Samui, requires a complex and often weather-dependent ferry transfer to reach the mainland. Finally, Phuket International Airport (HKT) acts as a distant western gateway, serving Phuket island with the longest transit times to reach Nakhon Si Thammarat. Most travelers choose their airport based on the origin of their flight rather than transfer speed, as intercity connections in this region are primarily road-based.

I visited a friend and accidentally left my passport in the car. The staff became suspicious and made me feel like I might be a bad person, which I was very unhappy about. However, they later explained that this was the hotel’s policy and standard procedure. Overall, the hotel is of good quality, the facilities are well maintained, and everything else was excellent. I would consider staying here again in the future.FromUS$43

I arrived early and the staff met me warmly and has made sure I'm comfortable. They then checked my room if it's already available and they happily checked me in without any additional fees. My room is clean and well maintained. The hotel's location is perfect if you're looking into exploring the town proper. I also enjoyed the coffee from Madi Pop, which is conveniently just at the lobby area. The breakfast is also good. I will definitely stay here again.FromUS$29

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Frankly, my dear, I was absolutely delighted!
Dear Hotel Scarlett,
The moment I walked in, I thought to myself: “As God is my witness, I shall never go hungry again!” And indeed — the service was so charming that even Rhett Butler would have stopped in his tracks to book a room.
The staff was friendly, attentive, and so accommodating that I felt like a true Southern belle back at Tara — minus all the Civil War stress. Every wish was read from my eyes faster than Scarlett could change her suitors.
The atmosphere, the cleanliness, the warmth — simply first-class. And whenever I thought it couldn’t possibly get better, I told myself: “I’ll think about that tomorrow” — and the next day, somehow, it actually did get better!
The verdict: Anyone who doesn’t stay here is, with all due respect, “gone with the wind.” I will most certainly return. After all, tomorrow is another day… hopefully back at Hotel Scarlett!
A full five stars, and my heart along with them! 🌪️❤️FromUS$27

The location was perfect for my goal. And price wise I got exactly what I paid for. The only wish it was a bit cleaner - furniture and walls have many dirt stains.

The room here is considered good 😊 The price is right, worth the money 💸 Excellent service staff. Friendly smiling 💁♀️ The room has complete facilities 🛏️❄️ Just no hair dryer 💨 The light in the room may be a little bright. And the sound may be a little loud Because the walls of the room are thin 🔊 But overall, it is suitable for staying during the trip 🚗☕ Below, there is free coffee as well. And the accommodation is only 3 minutes walk from Seven 🏪✨ The only disadvantage is that the parking lot should have a roof better 🚘 but overall I am very impressed 💖 If there is a chance to come back and stay again for sure 🌙🏡FromUS$12

Lovely large room, very comfortable bed and pillows, hot shower. Exactly as we wanted except the WiFi seemed very weak (we were on the 4th floor so maybe it's related to that). I asked for a chair with a back from the dining room to take to the room so I could sit at the desk properly and they were happy to help me out with that. Just wish the WiFi was a bit stronger as had to tether off my phone at times which was a bit annoying.FromUS$11
