Where to stay in Khon Kaen City Center
Khon Kaen City Center hotels & accommodations

This is probably my second or third review of the Avani Khon Kaen. This is by far the best hotel in Khon Kaen. We always stay here and will continue to stay here when we come to Khon Kaen for my son's tennis matches. The staff really goes out of their way to help, and their English skills are very good. The rooms are clean, and the restaurants are fantastic. Look n...

Very nice hotel, primarily for business travelers it seems. Very clean, room immaculate. Staff had lots of trouble with basic English but the manager was quite decent and intervened a few times to help. Khon Kaen is not a walking city, so if you stay here, you should try to arrange some sort of transportation. I did not, and it was a tough go. Could not find motorbike ...

Forget the Pullman and the other the big name hotels in Khon Kaen...this is the way to go now. Third of this type of new modern boutique hotel I have stayed. Top quality Fitout. Tv bed bathroom etc. Buffet breakfast is great not huge selection but the quality of the food is superb. Just a little bit seculded from the main highway near the night market but upside Quiet....

We cannot reccomend the Terminal highly enough. From the quirky modern decor, the comfortable western beds to the staff who could not do enough for us, any traveller looking for quality value for money accommodation in Khon Kaen should not be disappointed by the Terminal.

We were only staying one night in Khon Kaen, passing through, hotel was fine for our needs. Looked new, friendly staff, clean room, good aircon and good internet, room had fridge and kettle in also. Is a few restuarant's within walking distance, so all in all would fully recommend.

Comparing to the other hotels in Khon Kaen I would say Mantra Varee offers spacious rooms at a convenient location. All the staff at the reception, restaurant and housekeeping were very attentive and friendly. It is very close to Bung Kaen Nakhorn and the Nong Weang temple which I would recommend visiting. Its 9 plateaus offer a very nice view over the city. For shoppi...

Very good value for money, probably the best one in Khon Kaen at the moment, it still very new hotel opened very recently. It used to be a apartment building that is fully renovated. Some of the employees speak excellent english. If you focus on have a good spacious room which is very new and clean for a good price this is the place to be.

I booked this hotel for a single overnighter to rest in Khon Kaen - meaning I only needed a clean bed and safe parking for my car. Room is clean, check-in and out efficient and for the price, it's best value so far in KK. Will also consider other Hop Inn locations if they're available in other cities too

The Bright Hotel is really a secret for guests who have a car, like to walk or don`t care about to take a taxi. On beside the Highway 2 and near to several nice markets. It was so nice there that we decided to take it as our standard hotel in Khon Kaen. The breakfast is good and enough! Big car park and friendly พนักงาน !

I'm traveller and this is a great hotel in overall, nice clean room, good breakfast and also nice staff especially a receptionist because I had a problem when I reserved with Agoda that is my ID booking didn't show when I arrived at the hotel but the staff solved the problem very well, so I really recommend who want to visit Khon Kaen this is a great value hotel that I...

- Connected to famous Thai restaurants, the foods are all great - Room is a throw back to 1980s design surrounded by beautiful garden - Opportunity to explore city of Khon Kaen and North-Easterm Thai cultures - Should rent a car to make your life easier and to explore local sights which can be quite a distance from each others - Staffs are friendly and willing to help ...

When it comes to hotels in Thailand they can range from very cheap to outrageously expensive. This particular hotel offers a great stay for a very low price. A comfortable bed, new linens, great air condition and a spacious bathroom are only a few of the great qualities. I highly recommend this hotel if passing through Khon Kaen or staying a few days. They also off...

This Hotel was a big surprise in many respects. Very central and very quiet location. Rooms very spacious and very clean. Staff very helpfull. The Park around is just very beautiful. Enough parking lots. This hotel can easily compare to Hotels that cost 3 times more. Just everything was perfect. Value for Money is top. I will definately come back when ever I am in Khon...

If you guys had been visit all the visitors will say the same is good rooms and new rooms as well also the service are good too special it the price are not that expensive compare to another hotel good right this, They're have nice swimming poor and nice gyms for service as well . Hope all the visitors have joyful.

The hotel is out of the city center and off the main roads. This is good if you want a quiet place to stay, but the downside is shopping in the city and big shopping centers requires transport. There is 7/11 and Tesco Lotus express within walking distance. Good size rooms that are clean. Good size refrigerator. The WIFI is good most of the time but drops off badly at t...

I was a solo-traveller, stayed there for one night. The staff was so nice, polite and friendly. I was allowed to check-in before 1pm. The room was cozy, but could be cleaner. There were a plenty of parking lot. The hotel was very close to Khon Khan Hospital.

Needed to stay at a place in Khon Kaen as I had a flight the next day and this place was so convenient. 15 minutes walk from bus station, 7/11, tesco express, food only right around the corner. Room big and comfortable, showers hot.... definitely worth this cheap price

The plus side: Good decorations, Nice art work around the hotel. The room wasn't as small as I thought. The air conditioning was working well. The negative side: -the location : really weird to see 2 different locations on the Google with the same picture. Naturally, I went to the wrong one. -the staff: not attentive and not service mind. Messed up with my check in. ...

I chose Thorfan Resort because it said in agoda "Pet allowed" I brought my puppies because it said "Pet allowed" I droved along way from ChiangMai to KhonKhen. and found out that they are NOT allowed pet Anymore. anyway I feel thankful to the Staff that very kind and nice.

I had a very pleasant stay at this serviced apartment building. The rooms were cleaned everyday, free wifi, free coffee at the common area. Modern rooms with flat screen tv's, shower with hot/cold water, nice they had a sofa in the room so you are not only living on a bed. Balcony with a nice view of the lake Bung Kaen Nakorn. In front of the building and just around t...

I have made a booking 3 days before check in but upon arrival they cant find my booking. I have to wait for 10 min to contact the owner so they still cant find the booking. Good luck to me they have room avaiable at the other building. I quite wonder if they are fully booked what will happen to me. The next day I asked for half day check out with half charge at 4pm but...

First of all, don't use Googje Map cos it will take you to wrong place, the location is not in city ctr, merely 1-2 km away. It's just on the main road but road signage is not easy to read Cool Home in English. I can tell which is adjacent to old Amarin Hotel and 7-11 in front. This is an apartment but not hotel, but it is very very neat & clean place to stay, despite ...

Stayed two nights while in Khon Kaen to get a Laos visa. Place was very hard to find - had to rely on the kindness of locals as the songthew driver had no clue (even with the address printed in Thai). This place is now furnished apartments for students - I was the only short-term resident, and the front desk could offer very little assistance (he did call a cab for m...

Quiet place on the Khon Kaen's outskirts. There aren't any restaurants or shops nearby, so own transport is needed. Clean, well maintained bungalows, each with a covered parking place, small veranda (you can hang your hammock there), aircon, TV, fridge, attached bathroom with hot shower, set around a yard, among a few garden ponds and fountains. The yard is actually ...

At first searching this hotel from location in GPS is very bad, confused orientation of Soi Lao Nadi 10 -took my time nearly one hour to reach the hotel. The landmark of this hotel is the main gate of Kaen Nakorn Wittayalai secondary school , go opposite to Soi LaoNadi 10 , the hotel is on your right handed side. The good thing is cleanliness of the hotel.

The Cotton is a nice brand new hotel within waling distance to the main spots in Khon Kaen. It has an extraordinary, relaxed athmosfere and a friendly staff (one of them speaks almost perfect English, something quite estrange in Isaan). Rooms are perfectly fited and clean.

We spent some very nice days in Khon Kaen. The room was in a good area with some very nice restaurants nearby. There is no food offered by the "hosts" only the rooms. The staff doesn't speak much Thai so communication can be difficult at times. So don't expect to much hotel experience from that side. We were a bit disappointed by the fact we that we had to pay for a bu...

the room is well decorated, very clean and comfortable. Location is a bit difficult to find but it is very close to all shops and convenient. Only 200m to Kaen Nakorn Lake, easy access to the park. Great service, too. Parking is very convenient, you can park just next to your room. Internet is good. Highly recommend....
