Where to stay in Nakhon Ratchasima
Nakhon Ratchasima hotels & accommodations
I have stayed in hundreds of hotels in Thailand and Atta is absolutely one of the best. Many hotels in Thailand will claim a 4 or 5 star rating but most it’s not accurate. Here it’s very accurate. I can’t find anything bad to say about this hotel which is rare for me. I read a lot of reviews about bad breakfast here but they have obviously fixed that as our breakfast...
We chose the room for three persons. The extra bed is the best setting that we have ever experience. Very comfortable. Room is very clean. It has small pantry. We enjoy the espresso machine very much. Should provide more bottle water. We need to ask for additional. But all soft drink in the fridge are free. The scenic view from balcony is glorious. Bath room is huge....
Very beautiful hotel and the halal food was a plus point since it's so hard to find a hotel in Thailand with halal food (it is stated in the menu that their chicken & beef are halal). However in the breakfast buffet, the chicken and pork sausages were placed side by side in the same tray and using the same kitchen tong, so we were unable to eat it. Also, we stayed he...
I love this place. It is like having your own apartment. It comes a lot of amenities and with a nice balcony. Best to pick the highest floor if available. The views is so relaxing, I have to set an alarm in the morning just to enjoy the view. Breakfast in this hotel, is a must. Do all you can to have it with your booking or you probably have a pay a little out of your ...
Escape Khaoyai is ideally located at the center of natural Nakhon Ratchasima. The hotel appears new and the staff is exceptional given my 11 years of business and leisure travel experience based in Asia. The General Manager, K. Patrapramot Chaemkoson is actively engaged with his clients to make the stay at Escape Khaoyai comfortable. His entire staff displays friendly...
It was a quick decision to go to Khao Yai for 2 days, 1 night trip. We made a hotel booking in the morning before we start our trip. We were lucky enough to get 2 rooms for 4 adults at Theme Valley Khao Yai on Friday night with special price from Agoda. Thanks! Agoda. Theme Valley is such a amazing place. The front service is great. We love the security door at th...
Going beyond the excellent service from the DusitD2 team. 1) We were alerted on the power failure at the holiday days before we arrive the holiday. Notified and expecting the electricity to be up and running by 5pm but the electricity in the region was still disrupted. Fans and room light was still operating so we stayed for a night and enjoyed the good ambience witho...
Upon arriving at the La Casetta, the check-in was fast. My family and I were given glasses of juice which was refreshing. The hotel room was prepared for us in advance and we checked in quickly. On Christmas Day, the hotel surprised my family and I by placing a ginger bread man on each of our bed. For daily breakfast, we can either select western or traditional Thai. T...
I've been travel around and mostly stayed at 4-5 stars hotels. The Series Resort Khaoyai give the best services I've ever met and exceed my expectation. The staff are full of service mind, friendly and polite. They may give you a surprise, which is small gift, during your stay and that is your job to find out what it is. The facilities here were great. The room is ...
What do you describe a spacious and nicely furnished villa in a serene environment with breathtaking views, great food, 5 stars service which make you feel like you are at home? Paradise. Like to elaborate more on The Paz's impeccable service. The concierge and restaurant staff were always helpful, going the extra mile for us and their smiles were genuine and warmed o...
5 star rating is not enough for this lovely place.....this is the most beautiful place I have ever stayed in. The location with its 360° views is breathtaking....our room so intimate and romantic....the food excellent....the staff well they make this place run so smoothly and we became friends with all of them they are lovely...don't hesitate book and stay in Sala Khao...
This is a very luxurious hotel built around a golf course. The atmosphere and the surroundings were just amazing, not to mention the private pool! We had a lot of fun and good memories of the midnight and early morning swims during our stay. Before we booked, we read some negative reviews about the hotel's location, the lack of up keeping and maintenance, and cutting ...
hotel is very close to khao yai national park, but it has good play facilities for children, particularly a small water park. rooms were good sized and comfortable, although lighting for reading was a small problem. service was also excellent. overall, the best of the three places where we have stayed in khao yai.
We stayed in the treehouse and it was for us and espacially our children a dream come true. The resort is very close to the entrance of Khao Yai nature parc. We had diner at the resort, wich has normal prices for a hotel in Thailand. With the ambiance of the resort at night it's good value diner and saved us the walk into town in the dark. One off the best things about...
I stayed at Hotel Together for a night and wish it was longer. It was really valued for money with breakfast included. Their breakfast spread was the best among all my stays in Khao Yai. They even have high chairs for children. We were greeted by friendly staff who was struggling to understand us in English, we stayed at level two and had to carry our luggage ourselves...

My girlfriend and myself were pleased with the services rendered to us during our 3D2N stay over at Limon Villa. Pui, the owner, made us feel very welcomed when we first checked in and continued to do so throughout the rest of the stay. The villa was lovely and made us feel at home. The breakfast had two options, Western and Thai styles, which had huge portions and tas...
We have experienced a best hotel with best price that we never have. Room is big and comfortable. Excellent environment for those who wish to have a relaxing and peaceful vacation may consider The Pino Hotel Pakchong. Breakfast very nice and delicious like a 5 star hotel standards.
I have booked two rooms, room 144 and 145. Rooms were large with 2 queen sized beds in both room. This is definitely one of the cleanest rooms I ever stayed. Thumb up for housekeeping and hotel. Toilet is very bright and clean. Best toilet! Hotel gave us 4 bottles of water daily. A welcome fruit basket. A total of 8 pillows in each room. My family had a very comfort...
During our 2 night stay here, my wife and I were treated to stunning vistas of rolling mountains and cypress trees. I think Pak Chong province near Khao Yai National Park has an italian theme to it because most new developments are Italian Themed. This hotel is no exception. Food at the hotel was excellent and most vegetables in the menu are grown in the resort so it i...
This Hotel is very acceptable. The staff are friendly and speak adequate English. The rooms are well presented though very similar in design and style as many Hotels in the price range. It is a shame that information in the room is lacking in everything except a detailed explanation of every possible item in the room and how much it will cost you if damaged or missing ...
i have been to khao yai so often and I choose only 5 star hotel or resort only. i could say this resort is one of the top 3 resort in khao yai. the facilities in the villa is superb or may be the best in khao yai. the staff is very very friendly and willing to help you everything they could do. dont hesitate to choose.
Overall a very nice hotel that makes you feel like you are in Italy. Rooms were not as nice as expected for the price, but one of the best infinity pools with amazing view. Def worth visiting
Researched on Khao Yai for it's good accommodation places without breaking the bank. This 4 star hotel fits the bill. The resort is huge and it's being well kept. The rooms are big and comfortable to stay in. All the appliances and electrical works in the room. Cons: At random time the hot water doesn't work (esp at night and morning). The wifi signal is rather weak i...
In all i feel that khaoyai isnt a place thats ready for tourist yet. Resort staffs cant quite speak english but tries their very best. We still manage to understand each other end of the day. Rooms are big n clean. Room service food is amazingly delicious! Breakfast also changes everyday which im really surprised. The thai style noodles they hv during bf changes daily...
my friends and i went to kenshington english garden for a quick escape from the big city. we chose the hotel base only from the picture without any prior knowledge of it and what a surprise! it was a very pleasant stay. we drove from bangkok and the hotel is quite far from other attractions in khao yai but that is the charm of it. there are no other resort/hotel/restau...
Khao Yai attractions cover a large area, guests looking for adventure should consider hiring a driver. The hotel is located next to a newly built water theme park. There are also street food nearby. Great getaway for the family and for R&R after day trips to attractions around the Khao Yai area. The breakfast spread that came with the booking is good.
Our stay in Khao Yai was a short but memorable one because of this accommodation. Recommended by my sister, I'm so glad I took up the suggestion and stayed here too. I got a free upgrade to their best room to celebrate our anniversary. The room is so clean and spacious and beautiful, equipped with all the facilities you could possibly need in a room. I wouldn't even mi...
We booked a room in the hotel, but were upgraded to a villa in Muthi Maya. It was really a surprise. The villa was huge and very well designed, modern style, with all the details you can expect from a luxury villa, very nicely decorated. The bathroom was huge, with a huge tube in the middle, and the shower, seprated, with views to a small garden. The secondary bathroom...
Absolutely fantastic resort! Hidden gem that's newly open for just 1 month. Highly recommended as the rooms and decor are beautiful, the bed is comfy and pool is really lovely. Waking up to a Khao Yai countryside but modern beautiful resort gives such good vibes. Most importantly the staff there, especially Mark and Aed were more that excellent. As we only knew English...
Cheap places to stay in Nakhon Ratchasima
Arriving late at night, they gave me a bed in an empty room, so I can't say how things would be usually for when it's crowded, but the bed was comfy and the staff was very helpful. Two small things: they don't have towels - so bring your own and there is no reading light in the bed, only the bright room light, which might be annoying if there's more people staying.
Hello Hostel is new and run by the loveliest people. It is a small place 3 mins walk from train station, 10 mins from night market and minivan station. Spaces are not big as it is a tiny building, but everything (beds, toilets, kitchen, common area...) is perfectly clean and comfortable, you can see the place is very well cared for. You get lockers, soft towels, hair...
The owner (Cho and Nice) are very friendly, I fell sorry to Cho because I arrived very late (at 1 am) and need to woke him up, but he tried his best to serve me. I rent a scooter to explore Pak Chong and Moosi, Cho gave me a map and helped me to choose recommended place to visit. The location also great, there is a mosque nearby which very helpful for Muslim like me. I...
All staffs are kind and helpful! I came here for doing a business, but this place is also best for rest. It s clean and fully facilities. A cute cafe is the best, that you can enjoy outdoor with good drink. I recommend this place ! Especially, the price is so cheap! You will impress with this place ! :)
It's a very nice small hostel. The people are very friendly and helpful and can organise tours to the national park. The room and the bathroom are cleaned everyday, you get a towel and drinking water. I had a very pleasant stay there.
The place serve Bfast only, I m not good w codes/apps, thus is inconvenient for me to buy stuffs fr 7/11 which is a few km fr the place. Is suitable for those who self drive, plenty of of car parks. However the owner is helpful, she helped me to arrange to hourly private driver. And she can converse well in English.
Hard to find a receptionist/ front desk worker. It was 7pm and the place looked very dark and couldn’t find anyone. The phone number using google is wrong. I had to go on their Facebook page. Didn’t look very inviting but once I got my room it wasn’t bad. Good air conditioner nice bed and pillow. Best part was they had breakfast included and not a lot of Thai Hotels ha...
Great cheap basic hotel.
I loved the hospitality. The bed was okay, slightly hard. There's no desk or black coffee.... but there are free bikes to use. The shower stall was tiny and the nozzle doesn't point in the right direction. That could be just my particular room, though. The AC blows directly over the bed. The curtains did not cover the windows completely in my room, which was a bi...
Very big and nice rooms, modern furniture, big bathroom, clean. Great hotel! Internet is very quick and available in every room. Some of the staff are speaking english. Staff is very helpfull, e.g. they see you coming in to a room with food, they will bring you plates and glasses etc. Taking a very good care of every customer. Also are ver easy to chat with. On of the ...
Nice location - Nakhon Ratchasima Railway Station, Old and New Bus Stations, The Mall, Terminal 21, and all local markets at walking distance !
at bypass Nakhon Ratchasima, budget hotel, clean and secure also can order food to eat at room with mini bar.
Quiet and nice environment. Hope there is a playground for children. Add more bottle of water.
During a five day roadtrip I stayed at four motels/hotels. I considered this the best of them. The location was just a little hard to find but not to the point of frustration; worth the effort. The young men who met us were fluent in English which I always see as a bonus. The building is modern, well decorated and maintained. When we arrived there was someone doing gar...
Nice easy check in. Free wifi code that worked well although you need two for two devices, and may be forced to log in again if you go out. Clean room and walk to 7-11 in 2 minutes.
Away from it all. But very nice.
Although there were some great things about this hotel - the staff is incredibly kind, the beds are soft (not like normal thai beds), coffee with a kettle and water is provided - a few things made me regret my decision to stay. First of all, I was killing flies and mosquitoes in my room for quite some time, they were all over the bathroom and even though I kept the bat...
My friend and I were on the way back from touring the ancient Khmer ruins that lie on the Thai-Cambodian border in Isaan. We planned to spend a night in Pakchong, visit a friend and have a half day in the Khao Yai National Park. The hotel was easy enough to find and was in a perfect location for us being near our friend's house and near the park. The view was great a...
Good
At last a hotel with Fly screens on windows. Visiting during the cooler season meant that we could switch the air conditioning off in the night and enjoy fresh air. One of the 'managers' suggested that we ask for a freshly fried egg to be cooked. It took time and patience but we succeeded in getting a 'Hot Freshly Cooked Fried Egg' at breakfast. (This can often be a p...
Stayed in this hotel for a night to reduce traveling time to Jim Thompson farm the next morning. Location is difficult to find. Friendly and helpful staffs. Owner can speak Mandarin. It has washing machine which is useful for those who are traveling for longer period. Would be good if they could add on dryer.
Host realy realy nice and helpful. He speak french and english pretty well. He is also a guide in the national park of Khao Yai. You should ask him for tours, he is the best guide you can have and realy cheap compare the other regular tours. He will drive you to realy good and cheap local restaurents when you want. He also have 4 dogs (3 rescues) and 1 cat. The rooms a...
The room was decent-sized, it had a balcony and even a desk. The staff were very friendly, the lady even ordered us a taxi on 2 occasions (the location is a bit out of the way ). The only complaint I have is that the WiFi in the room was not working. The lobby's WiFi was fine.
Good clean and perfectly located hotel. The staffs are friendly and very kind. The hotel is located where there are many food outlets at the back road of the hotel. Its quite and good. They have food delivered series from restaurants outside if you do not wish to venture out. Just order from the reception. Morning coffee is free flow and complimentary. They have a smal...
great spot, nice rooms and hotel area, best shower we had in thailand, right next to Prasat Phimai. really enjoyed the stay. definitely go get dinner at the night market and come back and eat in the courtyard of the hotel
This is a fantastic budget hotel. It's almost brand new, very modern and superbly clean. The rooms are very spacious and the bed is huge, with a comfortable, firm mattress. Air con worked perfectly. Staff were friendly and helpful. There is a small shop in the reception area. No kettle in the room, but hot water available downstairs. Wifi worked well, with download spe...
We stayed at Ruen Khao Yai during our visit to the national park. Pros: it's stunning with a lot of attention to details, very clean and well taken care of, and had the comfiest beds during our trip in Thailand. Cons: it is a little off the main road (we had our own car so it was no issue) and there aren't many restaurants nearby (but we arrived late and left early so ...
Lovely. We stayed 2 nights
This place is very cosy and comfortable. There have a lot of shop and restaurants around the apartment. There close to the big night shopping mall (Zabb one). Their receptions are polite and powerful services. Don't hesitate to choose this one when you come to Nakhon Ratchasima.

This is a brand new hotel in Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat) so it is very clean and furnishing and decoration very modern. I just love its roof-top swimming pool and the gym. It is also centrally located. Buffet breakfast is good. An area of improvement is that the reception staff can smile a bit more and show some wormth. Train your security guard too and don't let them ...
This is a good value for money hotel in Nakhon Ratchasima. Room is very nice and clean. All TV channels are 100% clear and sharp. Free in-room wi-fi speed is good, higher than 20 mbps on download and 30 mbps on upload about all the time during my stay. Breakfast quality is beyond excellent. There is no swimming pool and no view from my room. I would give 5 stars as ov...
Bad timing due to a new year festival at the temple next door, I'm all for the local community having a good time but the noise never stopped from mid day to gone midnight on all four nights I stayed there. I think I was the only foreign guest at the hote and maybe the hard mattress in both rooms I rented were a little hard for my taste but each to his own. The breakfa...
This is my first time business trip to Muang of Nakorn Ratchasima. I found the review of this hotel from Agoda with considering the photos provided. Once we arrived hotel, we made some mistakes for the reservation however staff helped and supported us to resolve it. The hotel located very good location, it's next to the Klang Plaza which are the accessible place for di...
I booked a flora room for a family of six person, the staff is very friendly and helpful to our request, the room is clean and spacious with a big balcony facing the forest and mountain cliff, the hotel is located near to primo piazza 5 min walking distance and it is also near to a sunflower field which only available during Dec to Jan. As we are vegetarian, the hotel ...
if you are looking for a best hotel with great service and location, this is a best one in your choice. With the location beside by Kao Yai mountain, you can surely that this is one of the best place with great view(like you are in The Great Gasby movie) good air for your lung and cool climate even in the summer!!(15 degree on the morning) I really love it!!
It's a small family operation. The family is very warm and welcoming and goes way out of their way to accommodate. The staff always try to be helpful, but sometimes small things fall between the cracks. (But nothing that spoiled our time, it was more of a family operation trying to meet 4 or 5 star standards for the first time.) The location is great, the rooms are...
Hotel situated near Khao Phaengma, Flora Park and A Cup of Love. So getting around is easy. Hotel is one of the best available in the area. Unfortunately, we stayed in Moutain suite, so we had to take different entrance which has poor road condition and very easy to get lost. Breakfast on the first day was not so good, 2nd day acceptable. No lay out of the hotel wa...
We were very well looked after at Ma Villa - we visited from Bangkok by taking the train to Pak Chong, then a bus to the general area of the hotel, but got a bit lost - we called reception and they just sent a car for us - much appreciated! it's a new hotel, the buildings and their gardens are beautiful, and the location gives great views of the mountains and countrys...
Actual environment and room are more beautiful than photos. I scream after the staff left...... lots better than I expected! Simple yet elegant design, basic but quality facilities, comfy, spacious and bright inner, surrounded by greenery...... It's the first hotel that I wish I could stay longer. Overall, I love it! My best stay so far!
Khun Tuey was very helpful both before reservation (lots of information provided) and on arrival. He also made sure we had a pleasant stay. The housekeepers are very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend this place for family or friends gathering/bonding as it gives you such space you won't find in any hotels. The house is huge, it looks like a hotel. Built an...
This place was perfectly situated and also far away enough from everything to be quiet. Everything was very clean, and even though the staff didn’t have the best English, they picked us up and dropped us off at the train station and accommodated our every need. With bicycles to use, you can easily get to the pizza place down the road, 7-Eleven, or the night market. The...

Positives - I have stayed in most hotels in Nakhon Ratchasima,, this is easily the best. Great Staff, Excellent rooms, Decor Great and well maintained (unusually for Thailand), Ample Parking, My wife felt very safe!! Only one minor negative - bathrooms a bit tired but very adequate, i wouldn't let that put you off.
hotel staff at check-in were courteous and spoke english much better than other hotels in the area. the hotel itself is beautiful and very well maintained. room was larger than we expected, clean, and very comfortable. dinner buffet was beautifully presented, delicious, and offered a huge variety of western and asian food. hotel staff at the dinner buffet were very fri...
Situated in Nakhon Ratchasima (Korat) with half an hour away from Khao Yao, which you will find a lot of luxury resort with this room rate. The hot tube is huge but not enough hot water supply to fill the tube. Swimming pool is decent for cleanliness but lack of maintenance. Breakfast was okay. Meh. It's not a big deal but I prefer buffet with more food lines. ...
D Varee Charnvee (formerly Rancho Charnvee) is a really peacefull resort in a beautiful area close to the border of Khao Yai National park. The rooms are European Style '800 and really in perfect condition. Staff is very friendly and not "pretending to be nice" like in most of 5 star hotel. I live in Thailand since 10 years and I can feel this in 1 second. We've been t...
We booked this as we were looking for a big enough room that would sleep 3pax without having to book an extra bed. Would recommend this hotel, service by staff was excellent and they took the initiative to assist without us requesting. Little bamboo grove at the back reminded me of a mini kyoto was also a nice surprise. For those that enjoyed taking pictures, the hote...
We paid for a beautiful suite. The suite, with a private garden and little pool/tub was absolutely stunning, and the bed was really big (2m50 wide) and so comfortable. The problem was the service and the food. Service: None of the staff could speak English. In a so-called 4 stars hotel, you would expect that at least one staff member speaks some English, but thi...
