Das Eigentum — PD Guesthouse
PD Guesthouse is a no-frills 2-star base near Trat’s main market. Think functional tiled floors, a ceiling fan, and a cold-water bathroom – clean but sparse. It suits budget travellers who need a stopover before hopping to the islands, not anyone wanting comfort. The lobby feels like a narrow corridor with a counter and a noticeboard of ferry timetables.
Chroniken von Trat
Trat began as a coastal trading post under the Ayutthaya kingdom, later absorbing Khmer and Vietnamese influences through its rubber and gemstone trades. French colonisation (1893–1907) reshaped its streetscapes, leaving a few shophouses with European shutters. After the port dredging in the 2000s, the town became a transport hub for Koh Chang and Koh Kood. Today, its identity is practical: a transit town whose local market and riverfront still feel workaday, not touristy.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Trat-Guide →Die besten Monate
December and January: dry, sunny, and cool enough to walk Trat’s streets. March is reliably hot but still clear.
Peak / Festival Surge
December through February is peak. Christmas and New Year fill ferries to the islands, pushing hotel prices 30–50% above shoulder rates. Trat also hosts the Trat Fruit Fair in May/June, which brings Thai tourists.
Budget Schulter Saison
April–May and September–October offer cheaper rooms (often 40% off peak), lighter crowds, and still decent beach weather. Avoid the May–October monsoon on the islands: rain typically comes in short afternoon bursts.
Wetter & Verpackung
Trat’s climate is humid tropical, with 2,500+ mm of rain annually – the heaviest falls happen between May and October. Pack a lightweight rain jacket and waterproof sandals; umbrellas are useless in sudden downpours.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to PD Guesthouse, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the 2nd or 3rd floor at the back of the building (away from the main road). These rooms are less affected by street noise and have slightly better air circulation.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on the 1st floor near the check-in desk and staircase. These are closest to any lobby noise and potential foot traffic. Also skip rooms directly above the entrance if there's signage or a door that slams.
Best views
Rooms at the back of the guesthouse probably look over local houses or a small garden, not the main street. No sea view here – you're in Trat town.
Quietest floors
2nd and 3rd floors at the rear. Upper floors reduce road rumble if the building is on a main Trat street.
🔊 Noise notes
Trat is a transit hub for Koh Chang, so there are early-morning minibuses and taxis. The street out front may have vehicle noise from 6am onwards. Also, there can be bar or restaurant noise from nearby places in the evening.
Insider tips
If you're catching a ferry, ask at check-in for a pick-up time – many guesthouses arrange minibus transfers to the pier. For a quieter stay, book a back room even if it's a bit smaller.
- 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

Your arrival at PD Guesthouse
🕒 Check-in is from . Arriving earlier? Most hotels store luggage free — just ask at reception.
🚐 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.
