- Fredric JohnDubai, United Arab Emirates848 contributionsLargest Mall in Hat Yai areaI think it is the largest mall in Hat Yai as they have wide selections of shops and food stalls to visit. I was exploring the area and there’s a lot of things to do. I spent a huge amount of hours in the mall as I was resting from the tour I had for the day. The lower ground was the main area where some of the food court is located.Visited October 2023Travelled soloWritten 18 November 2023

The only one huge mall with branded item selling in Hatyai. There is a lot of International brand here. From the hotel where I stay, take a Tuk Tuk with fare 80 bath only for 3 persons. Lower ground floor is a nice place to search local food and snacks, supermarket available here also. When visited central festival in the end of december feel lucky due to adidas on big sale, so I got Ultraboost 19 with good price 3200 bath about 107 dollar US only. Outside of the mall, they are many street food stall infront. Overall is very nice place to be visiting when in Hatyai.

It’s the largest & trendiest mall in Hatyai with 2 food hall at ground floor & 4th floor and supermarket. It’s a long walk from end to end with lots of trendy shops so minimum 2-3 hours needed for a meal & shopping. Quality shopping here than other malls in Hatyai. Worth a visit!🥳

A wide range of retail stores are available, from popular fashion brands to electronics and homewares. There are also a variety of restaurants and food stalls in the mall, providing a variety of dining options. There is a food court on the first floor, where I tried the spicy chicken rice - I can't remember the name. The food was delicious, and during peak dining hours, it was quite difficult to find a seat to eat. Despite the difficulty of seating, the delicious and reasonably priced food is worth going.

I stayed in a hotel just beside this mall so it was convenient to pay a visit here. The mall is quite large that sells all types of branded and original items from the flagship store such as Uniqlo, H&M, Boots Pharmacy etc. There are also various food outlets available and some of them are halal.

hi everyone
I will go to Hat Yai by bus and arrive at 11 am.
Next, on the same day will take a sleeper train to Bangkok.
1) Where can I store luggage?
2) Are there any hotels that can check in for a few hours? The train leaves at 5-6 pm. Can you give me a suggestion..
thank you

Is the Sub-Zero ice skate at Central Festival Mall still operate?
Written 23 September 2022
Well, Hatyai main source of income is tourism, you can depend on its local security. You won't see much police, but overall the city is safe to travel and move around.
Local People (with english speaking skill) were polite. Very rare I heard tricky people on the street to cheat foreigner.
For shopping, only 3-5% of shop owner will be rude if you hard bargain...haha
The only thing you need to aware is very cheap night club and very cheap accomodation.
Make sure you get local recommendation (people you personally know) before you visit or stay those places.

How far is Central Festival to Big C? Any idea on cost of tuk-tuk per person?
Written 30 June 2019
I would say not very close, around 20 mins. I assume u r talking abt Big C Extra on Phetkasem Rd, which is to the north of town, whereas Central Fest is to the south of town.
