The government is still quite concerned about the possible re-emergence of COVID-19 during Thailand's most jolly celebration we all know as Songkran. The result is a series of saddening restrictions like no water splashing fun whatsoever, which is a total bummer.
However, we are still trying painstakingly to give you ideas to spend this long weekend with something fun and relaxing. Staycation is one of many great things you can take into considerations this year. We know that traveling out of the city (let alone out of the country) can be quite difficult, so why don't spend some time in a different scene like a relaxing hotel to pamper yourself with first-class facilities and good food provided by a good team of service—just like you having a getaway stay in any other hotels outside Bangkok.
And here are our selection of the staycation deals during the Thai New Year that you might want to snatch in order to enliven your upcoming holiday.
This legendary five-star splendor also invites you to kill the lifeless time during difficult Songkran with a comfortable stay with a shocking price.
