Anytime is always a good time to visit Thailand. Thailand is a year-round destination with little change of temperature. Thailand enjoys a tropical climate with three distinct seasons- hot and dry from February to May (average temperature 34 degrees Celsius and 75% humidity); rainy with plenty of sunshine from June to October (average day temperature 29 degrees Celsius and 87% humidity); and cool from November to January (temperatures range from 32 degrees Celsius to below 20 degrees Celsius with a drop in humidity).

Much lower temperatures are experienced in the North and Northeast during nighttime. The South has a tropical rainforest climate with temperatures averaging 28 degrees Celsius almost all year round.

However, as Thailand is a tropical country, at certain times of the year there is a heavier rainfall than at others. It is recommended that you take this into account when booking.

Star ratings are used to symbolize the overall quality, level of service, food standard, and range of facilities available in any given properties. The criteria applied within each country will vary depending on the specific requirements established by the relevant issuing body, but the below outlines will give a general understanding of what can typically be expected within each banding.

Three Stars: Hotel properties will usually be of a size to support higher staffing levels and with a greater quality and range of facilities. Reception and public areas will be more spacious. All bedrooms should come with en-suite facilities, and room service may be available.

Four Stars: At this level there should be a noticeable difference in the degree of quality in the furnishings, d'cor and equipment. Bedrooms are usually more spacious than those found in lower starred properties. Services such as 24-hour room service, laundry and dry cleaning may be available.

Boutique hotel is a term originating in North America to describe intimate, usually luxurious or quirky hotel environments. Boutique hotels differentiate themselves from larger chain/branded hotels and motels by providing personalized level accommodation and services/ facilities.

Sometimes known as "design hotels" or "lifestyle hotels," boutique hotels began in the 1980s in major cities like New York, London, and San Francisco. Very often, it is the Morgan Hotel in Murray Hill of New York, that is awarded with the title of first boutique hotel in the world. It was opened by Ian Schrager in 1984 according to design of Andre Putnam.

Typically boutique hotels are furnished in a themed, stylish and/or aspiration manner. Although usually considerably smaller than a mainstream hotel (often ranging from 3 to 100 guest rooms), boutique hotels can often have hundreds of rooms in major cities. Guest rooms and suites are fitted with telephony and WIFI Internet, air-conditioning, honesty bars and often cable/pay TV. Guest services are attended to by 24 hour hotel staff. Many boutique hotels have on-site dining facilities, and the majority offer bars and lounges which may also be open to the general public.
