- Each month shows what places asked on the days in its Read column; a month already past was read before its nights, so months read at different times are compared as read.
A month's figure is the median of its nightly medians, and a night's the median asking price for one night. A month is listed once it has at least 15 measured nights, each with at least 30 places showing a price.
Cheapest to priciest month
The median asking price in Bangkok is $68 a night in the priciest month (December 2026) against $58 in the cheapest (October 2026): a gap of $10, or +17%.
| Month | Median asking price | Against the cheapest month | Nights measured |
|---|---|---|---|
| October 2026 | $58 | 0% | 31 |
| January 2027 | $62 | +7% | 22 |
| November 2026 | $63 | +10% | 30 |

Friday and Saturday against Monday to Thursday, by month
Across the 4 months measured in Bangkok with at least 3 nights on each side, Friday and Saturday nights asked from +3% to +13% against Monday to Thursday.
| Month | Friday + Saturday | Monday – Thursday | Difference | Nights measured (Fri+Sat / Mon–Thu) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| October 2026 | $62 | $56 | +11% | 10 / 17 |
| November 2026 | $70 | $61 | +13% | 8 / 17 |
| December 2026 | $70 | $66 | +5% | 8 / 19 |
| January 2027 | $63 | $61 | +3% | 7 / 12 |
Each side is the median of its nightly medians; Sunday nights sit in neither group. A month with fewer than 3 nights on either side is left out.
Hotels against B&Bs, guesthouses and apartments, by month
Across the 4 months measured in Bangkok with hotels and homes both read, the whole market asked a median from $52 to $56 a night.
| Month | Hotels & hostels | B&Bs, guesthouses & apartments | Whole market | Places a night (hotels + homes) | Nights measured |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| October 2026 | $58 | $43 | $52 | 200 + 87 | 31 |
| November 2026 | $63 | $38 | $55 | 199 + 87 | 30 |
| December 2026 | $68 | $39 | $56 | 199 + 86 | 31 |
| January 2027 | $62 | $36 | $52 | 199 + 88 | 22 |
Medians per night. The whole market pools every price both halves showed that night; a night counts only when both were read, and a month only with enough such nights.
Places with no price, by month
In each of the 4 months measured in Bangkok, the median night had 4% of checked places showing no price (sold out or closed).
| Month | No price, median night | Highest night | Places checked a night (median) |
|---|---|---|---|
| October 2026 | 4% | 7 October 2026: 4% | 208 |
| November 2026 | 4% | 6 November 2026: 4% | 207 |
| December 2026 | 4% | 30 December 2026: 5% | 207 |
| January 2027 | 4% | 1 January 2027: 4% | 207 |
Counted place by place: a checked place with no price that night is sold out or closed. A month already past shows what had no price when it was read.
Event nights, by month
Months with published events in Bangkok: 3 of the 4 measured (events in all: 8); the highest night against comparable nights was 31 December 2026 (New Year's Eve), +59%.
| Month | Events | Highest night | Event | Median that night | Against comparable nights |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| October 2026 | 2 | 13 October 2026 | HM King Bhumibol Adulyadej Memorial Day | $60 | +4% |
| December 2026 | 4 | 31 December 2026 | New Year's Eve | $146 | +59% |
| January 2027 | 2 | 1 January 2027 | New Year's Day | $106 | +51% |
Each percentage compares that night's median with measured nights of the same kind (weekday or weekend) within a week either side. It describes the night; it does not say the event moved the price.
