TLDR : Answer Summary
The inquiry is about obtaining a DTV visa for Thailand with only a short-term hotel booking (2-3 months). Responses from various users indicate that many embassies do not require long-term accommodation evidence and accept short hotel bookings, with examples including stays confirmed for a few days to a month. It appears that the acceptance of short-term hotel bookings may vary by embassy, but generally, it is commonly accepted.

I applied in Hanoi without any confirmation or booking just put the name of the hotel and stated that I will stay there for 30 days.

My embassy didn't require a proof of stay. I submitted a one month booking for an Airbnb and I got the DTV. Applied in Seoul, Korea.

I got the DTV with a week apthotel booking. Malaysia requires a minimum of 6 months accommodation booked. Vast majority of embassies have no minimum requirement.
