Do you want a lively waterfront stay with all the facilities or a peaceful island retreat with garden villas? Novotel Marina Sriracha sits on the coast with both city and sea view rooms, a kids’ club, and a pool that looks straight out onto the Gulf of Thailand, perfect for your family holiday. If you want to make sure your kids have space to move around, the large family suite is a fantastic option. It features bunk beds for the little ones, a king-size bed for the parents, and thoughtful amenities for everyone to enjoy.

If you prefer something slower, hop on the ferry to Novotel Koh Si Chang. This island escape swaps the bustle for calm, with villas surrounded by greenery and a relaxed pace that makes you forget Bangkok. Both hotels are easy, comfortable, and family-friendly, so you can’t go wrong whichever you choose.

2. Make sure there are facilities for kids

Any parent knows that if the children are entertained, the holiday feels much easier. Both Novotel properties take this seriously. At Novotel Marina Sriracha, kids can spend hours at the Kids’ Club or splash about in the pool while parents unwind on the sun loungers. There are also family-friendly menus at the Blue Marble Restaurant.

Over at Novotel Koh Si Chang, the slower pace of island life pairs perfectly with open spaces and safe play areas. The island’s sandy beaches are shallow and safe for children to play, giving parents a chance to relax without worry. Free Wi-Fi across both properties makes downtime easier, too, whether that’s streaming cartoons in the room or sharing holiday snaps with family back home.

3. Add a little adventure

A good family holiday is never just about the hotel. Both Sriracha and Koh Si Chang offer plenty of tourist destinations to explore within easy reach. If you choose to stay in Novotel Marina Sriracha, you can take the children to Khao Kheow Open Zoo, where they’ll see hippos, giraffes, elephants, and have the chance to feed some animals up close. Another option is J-Park Sriracha Nihon Mura, a Japanese-style shopping village that combines food, shopping, and a playful cultural experience.

The atmosphere slows right down at Koh Si Chang. You can explore the Chao Pho Khao Yai Shrie to teach your kids about culture and history, cycle around the island to find hidden cafes and beaches, or simply enjoy wandering the island’s peaceful vibe together.

4. Book at the right time
