A travel program on television was featuring Ayutthaya. I have been to Bangkok several times, but the last time was in 2012.
On that visit, a Thai friend of mine, whom I’ve known for many years, scolded me, saying, “It’s laziness not to have been to Ayutthaya.”
For some time, her husband had been saying, “If you go to Ayutthaya, I’ll ask my driver to take you,” but I kept declining out of politeness.
Only before I would stay in Bangkok, I often asked them to arrange my hotel, though.
テレビでアユタヤを旅する番組をやっていた。僕は何度もバンコクには行っているが、最後に行ったのは２０１２年。その時に、長年のタイ人の友達から「アユタヤに行ったことがないなんて怠慢です」と怒られた。以前から彼女の夫から、「アユタヤに行くなら自分の運転手にお願いするから」と言ってくれていたのだが、遠慮していたんだ。バンコク滞在時はホテルの手配はよくお願いしていた。

Your original writing is okay too, but the suggestion is more natural.

Placing the contrast at the start flows better from your previous sentence, but you can keep it at the end if you prefer.
Feedback
It feels a bit strange to call it lazy for not doing something for leisure. Lazy is more suitable for not fulfilling a commitment or an obligation. Maybe it is common to say it this way in Japanese?
