Hat Yai is the largest city in southern Thailand, a busy trading centre in Songkhla province not far from the Malaysian border. Crystal Hotel Hat Yai stands in the Hat Yai Market Area, a lively part of town where shops and markets set the pace of the streets.

The Asean Night Bazaar is 350 m away, an evening market that gives the area much of its life after dark. The Magic Eye 3D Museum is 550 m away, a museum of 3D art with painted illusions. Hat Yai Municipal Park is 900 m away, a green space in the city, and Hat Yai Bus Station is 400 m away. The airport is 11.8 km away, reached by the airport transfer the hotel offers.

A good day in the area could start with a walk through Hat Yai Municipal Park, then a visit to the Magic Eye 3D Museum, and end at the night bazaar in the evening. Our Lady of Lourdes Church and Santisuk Market are further options for a longer outing. Evenings are the liveliest time in the market area, when the night bazaar opens and the streets fill with visitors and locals, so the walk back to the hotel is through a busy part of town.
