Laguna Grand Hotel and Spa is in Mueang Songkhla district, around the town of Songkhla, a provincial town on the Gulf of Thailand in the far south of the country. The town is known for its lagoon, its temples and mosques, and a fish market where the day's catch is sold, so a stay here is more about a working southern Thai town than a resort strip.

The Songkhla Zoo is 5.8 km away and the Songkhla Fish Market is 7.6 km away, and the Folklore Museum is also in the area, showing local history and traditions. The Budda monument, the Wat Sisa Ki Ri pagoda and a mosque are in the surrounding area, and the mix of Buddhist and Muslim communities in the town is visible in these sites. Hat Yai International Airport (HDY) is 27.7 km away, and the hotel offers an airport transfer, a shuttle service and a taxi service.

A practical day runs from the fish market in the morning to the zoo in the afternoon, then back to the hotel for the outdoor pool or a meal in the restaurant.
