About Arawana
Stay smart. Stay central. Stay with Arawana.
Arawana brings together budget-friendly hotels and residences in well-connected neighbourhoods across Bangkok and Pattaya. We offer comfortable, uncomplicated stays that put guests close to the places they came to experience.
Our story
Arawana is a Thai hospitality group built around a simple belief: a good stay starts with the right location and the right essentials.
Our hotels are chosen for their connections to the city around them: near transport, business districts, shopping, dining, local neighbourhoods and the beach. Inside, guests can expect comfortable rooms, modern simplicity and friendly service from teams who know the area.
We combine convenient digital services with genuine Thai hospitality, making every stay straightforward from booking to check-out. Whether visiting for a quick city break, a business trip or a longer stay, guests have a practical and welcoming base from which to explore.
The Arawana name is inspired by the Arowana fish, a symbol of prosperity, strength and good fortune. These qualities continue to guide us as we grow: staying resilient, moving forward and creating better experiences for every guest.
