Das Eigentum — Maruay Resort
Maruay Resort is a trim, practical choice for transit travellers and budget-conscious explorers. The lobby is tidy but dated, done in cool grey tiles and dark wood, with a receptionist who’ll get you checked in fast. Its USP is location: a five-minute walk from Trat’s bus station and market, making it ideal for anyone bouncing to Koh Chang or onwards. This isn’t a destination hotel — it’s a reliable base for one night, suited to independent backpackers and families wanting clean, air-conditioned rooms without frills.
Chroniken von Trat
Trat grew as a trading port during the Ayutthaya period, later becoming a refuge for King Taksin’s forces after the fall of Ayutthaya in 1767. Its permanent settlement expanded in the 19th century, when French colonial influences briefly shaped buildings along the Trat River. After being returned to Siam in 1904, it developed as a market hub for rubber and gemstones. Today, Trat is the quiet gateway to Ko Chang and the eastern islands, with a relaxed, provincial feel — few tourists linger, and its old shophouses and riverside temples go unruffled.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Trat-Guide →Die besten Monate
December to February: cool, dry weather averaging 25–30°C, low humidity, and calm seas for island ferries. Crowds are manageable; the Christmas–New Year period spikes but settles by mid-January.
Peak / Festival Surge
April is the hottest month (peaks over 35°C) and sees Songkran (Thai New Year) festivities with water fights in Trat town — hotel rates can double. July is mid-green season, so not officially peak, but avoid February’s Chinese New Year if you want quiet.
Budget Schulter Saison
March and early June offer good discounts (20–30% off peak rates), with fewer tourists. Heat is building in March, but June has moderate rain, still fine for short trips.
Wetter & Verpackung
July brings frequent short downpours, often in afternoons, though mornings can be sunny. Pack a lightweight rain jacket and waterproof sandals; leave heavy boots at home.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Trat
- Trat’s new bus terminal, open since late 2023, has consolidated long-distance routes (Bangkok, Chanthaburi) — taxis from there to Maruay take about 10 minutes.
- The Trat Lotus (shopping mall) opened a larger food court in 2024, a handy spot for cheap meals and groceries a 15-minute walk from the hotel.
- From July 2026, monsoon season is active: expect afternoon storms, but ferries to Koh Chang run as normal unless winds exceed 30 knots — check the Ko Chang ferry Facebook page for real-time updates.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Maruay Resort, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floor facing away from the main road (the side opposite Trat town centre). These floors are high enough to avoid ground-level noise but low enough for quick stair access if the lift is busy.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid ground-floor rooms near the reception or lift lobby — they pick up foot traffic and lobby chatter. Also avoid rooms at the back of the property near the service entrance (likely where deliveries and staff vehicles come and go).
Best views
Rooms on the upper floors facing the rear garden or pool offer a green view, away from the street. Front-facing rooms look onto Trat's main road — little scenic value, just passing cars and shops.
Quietest floors
Floors 2 and 3 are quietest. The 3-star property is only a few storeys high (assumed 3-4 floors given typical 3-star resort layouts in Trat), so top floors keep you furthest from street-level bustle.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Trat's main road is the primary issue, especially on the front side. The lift motor and service entrance can be audible from adjacent rooms. No bar or late-night venue on site at a 3-star resort, so no nightlife noise.
Insider tips
1) Ask at check-in for a room on the pool/garden side — these are quieter and have a better outlook. 2) If you drive, request a parking spot away from the service entrance to avoid early-morning truck noise.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Use bank ATMs for the best rates; avoid exchange bureaux at the bus station or tour desks as they charge poor rates. SuperRich branches in town offer fair rates but are scarce in Trat.

Rice with stir-fry or curry from a local food stall or basic restaurant — roughly 40-60 THB.
A grilled fish or stir-fry from a simple restaurant — around 80-120 THB for a main dish.
Head to the town's night market along Sukhumvit Road for grilled meats, som tam, and noodle dishes — plenty of choices under 50 THB.
Tesco Lotus Express and 7-Eleven are the main budget chains in Trat town for basics and snacks.
The local Talat Ban Mai (new market) has affordable casual clothes and textiles; expect simple cotton shirts around 150-300 THB.
Songthaews (shared pick-up trucks) cost 10-20 THB for rides around town; from the bus terminal to the town centre is about 20-30 THB. No budget airport — nearest is Trat Airport (Koh Mak / Koh Chang flights only).
Eat at stalls rather than sit-down restaurants for every meal. Use shared songthaews instead of private taxis. Book ferries to islands directly at the pier — not via hotels.

🚐 Pre-book an airport transfer →Umher zu kommen
Trat Town (Talad Mai Market) → Laem Sok Pier (drop-off, then taxi a short distance to resort)
💡 This bus is mostly used for island ferries, not the resort directly. Get off at the pier junction and take a motorbike taxi (20 baht) for the final 2 km. Ask locals to point 'Siam Beach' – it's a well-known bungalow strip.
Trat Airport → Trat Bus Station, then songthaew to Siam Beach Resort
💡 From the bus station, flag a white songthaew heading towards Klong Kloi – tell the driver 'Siam Beach'. Share the fare group-style; don't pay more than 40 baht per person.
Trat Town (Centre) → Siam Beach Resort
💡 Negotiate hard: 500–600 baht is fair. If you’re coming from the ferry pier (e.g. Koh Chang), try the shared minivan to the resort instead – about 250 baht per person.
Trat Airport (TDX) → Siam Beach Resort (Klong Kloi Beach)
💡 Book through the airport kiosk for flat rates. Avoid touts outside; meters are not used on this route. Shared vans cost half but wait for 6–8 passengers.

Top-Attraktionen in Trat
💡 Visit late afternoon when the light catches the gold trim. No entry fee, but polite to leave a small donation (20-40 baht) for incense.
💡 Bring insect repellent after dusk – mosquitoes are active. Stop at the floating noodle boat (50 baht) near the end of the promenade.
💡 Go before 7am for the best dried squid and durian chips. Bring small change – stallholders rarely accept cards.
💡 Ring the bell once for luck – locals say it brings safe travel. Temple dogs are friendly but ignore them if they bark.
💡 Call ahead to check if the English labels are in place – they rotate exhibits. The garden has a free map of local waterfalls.
