The Nice Hotel

The rooms at The Nice Hotel measure between 28 and 36 m² and sleep up to four guests. Beds include a king bed, two single beds, a double bed, and a single bed with a double bed in the triple room, so the rooms work for couples, solo travellers and small groups.

Daily housekeeping and a laundry service are provided, along with Xerox and fax in the business centre. The hotel has a lift, is wheelchair accessible, and has a shared lounge with a TV area, while air conditioning covers the public areas. English and Thai are spoken.

Free parking is available nearby, free Wi-Fi is available in all rooms, there is 24-hour security, and family rooms are available.

The Nice Hotel is on Chaokhun Road in Paknam, part of Krabi Town, the provincial capital on Thailand's Andaman coast. The town is a practical base for travellers who want markets, temples and piers close at hand rather than a beach stay, and the resort area of Ao Nang lies further along the coast. Krabi International Airport, 8.4 km away, is reached by road from the town, so arriving by air is straightforward for the town centre.

Krabi Walking Street, 500 m away, is a pedestrian street that comes to life in the evening, and Chaofa Pier is close by for boats heading to the islands. Wat Kaew Korawaram, a temple with a pagoda, stands close to the hotel. Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Tham Suea), 6.6 km away, is a hillside temple complex reached by a long climb, and Railay Beach, 10.1 km away, is a limestone beach with cliffs that is reached by longtail boat.

A full day could start at Tiger Cave Temple and continue with a boat trip from Chaofa Pier to Poda Island or the Hong Islands, both reached by boat from Krabi. Railay Beach can also be visited for a day on the cliffs by longtail boat. Sea conditions in the rainy months can affect boat trips.
