Both are open 24 hours, and the satellite terminal, SAT-1, has benches with USB ports and meditation rooms.
Where can you sleep, shower and leave bags at Bangkok airport?
Past security, without passing immigration. The Miracle Transit Hotel, in the transit area on level 3 of Concourse A, rents rooms by the hour, 24 hours a day: rooms with their own shower for 6 to 12 hours. The Miracle Lounge sells two hours with showers for THB 1,500, and SAT-1 has benches with USB ports. Left luggage is landside, from THB 100 a bag for 24 hours.
Hotels in and next to the terminals
Of the two hotels below, only the Miracle Transit Hotel at Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) is airside, so it’s the one to book if you’re changing planes and don’t want to pass immigration.
| Hotel | Where | Airside or landside | How you get there |
|---|---|---|---|
| Miracle Transit Hotel | Level 3, Concourse A, main terminal | Airside, in the transit area | Through the Transfer Desk and security, then follow the signs for Concourse A |
| Miracle Suvarnabhumi Airport | Kingkaew Road, about 15 minutes away | Landside, off the airport | Pass immigration, then by taxi |
The Miracle Transit Hotel is Thailand’s only transit hotel, open 24 hours. Bring your onward boarding pass and stay airside: if you pass immigration, you’ll have to come back through departure immigration and security to reach it. The Miracle Suvarnabhumi Airport hotel is for travellers who are entering Thailand anyway, with a passport that lets them in.
Day rooms
The Miracle Transit Hotel sells its rooms by the stay, not by the night. Its rates are on its own website.
| Room | Stay | What’s in it |
|---|---|---|
| Deluxe room | 6 to 12 hours | Own shower, TV, minibar, flight screen, free Wi-Fi |
| Standard room | 4 hours | Shared bathroom, free Wi-Fi, drinks |
If your layover is under about 6 hours, the 4-hour room or a lounge fits better.
Lounges you can pay for
| Lounge | Where | Hours | From |
|---|---|---|---|
| Miracle Lounge, business class | Concourses A, C, D (opposite gate D5), F and G (opposite gate G2) | 24 hours | THB 1,500 for 2 hours |
| Miracle Lounge, first class | Concourses A, C, D (opposite gate D6), G and SAT-1 | 24 hours | THB 1,800 for 2 hours |
| The Coral Lounge | Gate C1 and Concourse D | 24 hours | Price at the desk |
Prices seen in November 2026. Booked ahead in the SAWASDEE by AOT app, the airport’s own app, the Miracle Lounge costs THB 1,190 (business class) or THB 1,300 (first class). The Miracle Lounge’s price includes food and drinks, alcohol too.
Showers
The Miracle Lounge has separate shower rooms for men and women, so lounge entry, from THB 1,500 for two hours, is the way to shower without a room. The Miracle Transit Hotel’s deluxe rooms have their own shower; the 4-hour rooms share a bathroom, so if you want a shower with one, ask the hotel when you book.
Fast Track
Private meet-and-greet companies sell an escorted fast track through arrivals immigration: Viator (opens in a new tab) lists one from about US$76 (seen November 2026). It’s worth it only on a tight layover; on the way back, 90 minutes covers departure immigration and security.
Left luggage
Bellugg’s counters on levels 2 and 4 are landside, so you reach them after immigration. Book at least an hour ahead.
| Bag | Per 24 hours |
|---|---|
| Small, under 22 inches | THB 100 |
| Medium, 22 to 26 inches | THB 120 |
| Large, over 26 inches | THB 150 |
Prices seen November 2026.
