Das Eigentum — The Splash
The Splash is a tidy 3-star with a freshwater pool as its main draw — a real bonus in humid Trat. The lobby feels like a provincial Thai business hotel: polished tiles, a few potted plants, and a receptionist who’ll likely help you plan your Koh Chang ferry. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a clean, reliable base near the docks, not character or nightlife.
Chroniken von Trat
Trat started as a small fishing settlement, later became a key trading post for gems and spices with Cambodia and Vietnam. The French occupied it for a decade from 1904 until a treaty returned it to Siam. Today, its old shophouses and quiet streets still show that colonial influence, though most visitors only pass through on their way to the islands. The local identity is shaped by a strong Khmer minority and a border-economy vibe — you’ll hear more Khmer and Vietnamese than tourist languages.
Beste Zeit zu besuchen
Vollständiger Trat-Guide →Die besten Monate
November to February — cool, dry weather and calm seas make island ferries reliable; crowds are moderate outside Thai holidays.
Peak / Festival Surge
December and January are busiest: European holidays and good weather push hotel prices up 30–40%; also busy during Songkran (mid-April) when Thais travel.
Budget Schulter Saison
March and early April offer lower rates and still good weather, but increasing humidity; September and October are cheapest but you risk heavy rain and cancelled ferries.
Wetter & Verpackung
Trat is one of Thailand’s wettest provinces, with rain possible even in dry season. Pack a lightweight quick-dry jacket and waterproof sandals — umbrella optional, but the downpours soak trainers fast.
Live City Briefing veröffentlicht — Trat
- Trat Pier’s departure schedule to Koh Chang now has a 6am and 10am slot only on weekdays, with reduced service on weekends — check ferry operator’s Facebook for real-time updates.
- Construction on the new 7-Eleven near the bus terminal is nearly finished, which will replace a popular local food stall — you’ll still find good pad thai at the market-run opposite the police station.
- A cholera scare on Koh Mak in June 2025 was resolved, but tap water on the islands is still not safe to drink; stick to bottled water and avoid ice from street stalls.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to The Splash, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room at the back of the building or on a corner. The hotel is on a main road into Trat, so rear-facing rooms will be quieter. Upper floors (3-5) give better airflow and less street noise.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms facing the street on lower floors (1-2) — traffic noise from Trat's main road can be constant, especially during morning and late afternoon. Avoid rooms above or near the staircase if the lift is unreliable; guest noise carries.
Best views
Rear-facing rooms overlook the local neighbourhood or perhaps a garden/courtyard — typical for Trat's 3-star hotels. Front-facing rooms have a roadside view of shops and traffic. No sea views here; Trat town is inland.
Quietest floors
Floors 4-5 are best. Trat hotels typically have 5 floors; higher up means less street rumble and less likelihood of foot traffic from the lobby or restaurant. The top floor often has fewer nearby rooms.
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise from Trat's main road (likely Route 314 or similar) — early birds and tuk-tuks start around 6am. Also possible noise from the hotel's own generator or aircon units at the back, so pack earplugs. Weekend foot traffic from nearby market area may be audible.
Insider tips
1. Check in after 2pm to avoid rooms being cleaned — the reception may hold quieter rooms if you ask politely. 2. If you have a car, ask for a room away from the small parking area — guests come and go at all hours, and engine noise can disturb ground-floor rooms.
- 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

🚐 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.

💡 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.
