Technically, you can enter Thailand with a refugee travel document, but all the reports I've read say they were rejected. This may be the reason - no mention of vacation. International Travel: It serves as a substitute for a national passport, enabling the bearer to cross borders, work, study, or reunite with family abroad. [1] UNHCR
