About Pattani accommodation
Pattani doesn't get many visitors, and that's part of the appeal if you're after a genuinely quiet corner of Thailand's south. This is a fishing and trading town on a river, with beaches you'll likely have mostly to yourself.
Accommodation here is simple and good value. You won't find big resort chains, but you will find small, family-run hotels and guesthouses in the town centre, close to the markets and the river.

What Pattani is known for
- Kolae boats: Head to Panare Beach to see these traditional wooden fishing boats, hand-painted in bright colours and patterns found only in Thailand's deep south.
