Has anyone travelled to Sukhothai recently. <BR>Is Sukhothai really worth a visit? I know of nobody who has been there and I am just going on the photos I've seen of the sights.My husband and I plan to travel there in May and we are staying for 2 nights only. Is this enough time just to see the world heritage sights. <BR>Also, we are planning on staying at the Quantum Sukhothai Resort Hotel.Is this hotel OK for location and amenities? Is there a better hotel someone can recommend?

Hi yes I have been to Sukhothai,it was about a year and a half ago but it was one of my most memorable places that i stopped. I stayed at the Lotus Village, great!! Awesome history, rent a bike and bike threw the pristine park with ancient ruins of buddhas, undescribable, enjoy!!

I agree. I, too, stayed at the Lotus Village which, in itself, was a nice experience! I'm a ruins junkie that's been to most (Angkor, Bagan, etc., etc.) and I would definitely say that Sukhothai is worth the visit. There's a shuttle &quot;bus&quot; that's located walking distance from Lotus Village and they'll drop you in front of a bicycle rental in Old Sukhothai. Doing Sukhothai on a bicycle is the best way of doing it. There are also a lot of nice, clean eating places along this stretch of the road. I don't know what the temperature or weather will be like in May, but 2 nights should be sufficient.

I agree. As the birthplace of the Thai nation, it is worth a visit. The site is also quite scenic and the restoration impressive.

Hi guys,<BR><BR>It was great, but we stayed in phitsanulok for two nights, and caught a mini-bus arranged by Pailyn hotel. This was more convenient as we were travelling Thailand via train. Train travel is a good way to see Thailand as a lone traveller and a family.
