Translation (English):
Breakfast Our breakfast buffet is served every day from 7:30 to 10:00 am in the Stone Pine Room. Most of what you'll find on it comes from farms in the local area. If you have any food intolerances, just let us know the evening before.
Sauna The spa area is open from 3:00 to 8:00 pm. Please note that, as is customary in Germany, swimwear is not worn in the sauna for reasons of hygiene. You'll find bathrobes and sauna towels ready in your room.
Check-out Please vacate your room by 10:30 am on the day of departure. Late check-out until 2:00 pm is available for an extra €25, subject to availability.
Translator's notes
- Zirbenstube — kept as a room name, translated as "Stone Pine Room" so guests can find it on signs that also show the English name
- Sauna rule — added "as is customary in Germany": without it, many English-speaking guests read the rule as unusual or a mistake
- Times — switched to 12-hour format with am/pm for the target audience; euro prices left unchanged

About this service
We translate between English and Thai with Thai writing rules in mind: words run together without spaces, and a space marks the end of a phrase, so line breaks and short UI labels need care. Polite particles ครับ and ค่ะ depend on who is speaking, so we agree on the voice before we start, and we ask whether years should follow the Buddhist calendar, as most Thai readers expect. Going from Thai into English, we make implied subjects and tense explicit so the English reads naturally.
What is included
- What you getThe translation in Thai or English with your structure kept, the agreed politeness level used throughout and a glossary of key terms.

- Polite particlesครับ, ค่ะ or neutral, matched to the speaker

What we need from you
The text pasted into the brief or a photo of it, the direction, who is speaking (brand, man, woman) and whether to use Buddhist Era years. Documents can also be attached as PDF, Word or Excel files.
We will ask you:

- Who is speaking in the text?
- Should years be in the Buddhist calendar?
- Is there a character limit for any part?

Questions and answers
Is this a certified translation?
No. It is an accurate working translation without a stamp, so it is not for Thai government offices that require certified documents.
Will Thai line breaks look right on my website?
We place phrase spaces correctly, but browsers can still break Thai words oddly. Check the page after publishing, and we adjust spacing within your revisions.
Do you use Thai numerals?
We use Western digits, which are standard in business and online texts, unless you ask for Thai numerals.
I already have a translation. Can you just fix it?
Yes, choose Premium and paste or attach both texts. We edit against the original and note the main changes.
