Hat Yai is a busy commercial city in southern Thailand, and the house sits in the Hat Yai Central area, where shops, fresh-produce markets and street food stalls line the streets. Its streets are lined with shops, from local stores to international brands, and the mix of old and new gives the area its character. It is an urban setting rather than a beach stay, so the appeal is the city itself: its markets, its temples and the buzz of the centre.

The iconic Kim Yong Market is 1 km away, with colourful stalls and a lively atmosphere, and Hat Yai Railway Station is 850 m away. Wat Hat Yai Nai, known for its large reclining Buddha statue, is nearby. The Asean Night Bazaar Hatyai, a night market with food stalls and shopping, is 3 km away, and the Magic Eye 3D Museum is 3.1 km from the house. Hat Yai International Airport is the nearest airport.

A good way to spend a day is to start at Wat Hat Yai Nai, then head to Kim Yong Market for lunch and the Asean Night Bazaar in the evening. Hat Yai Municipal Park, 3.8 km away, offers green space for a break from the markets. After the stalls, the park is a quieter place to end the day.
