Lovely hotel, at this price, well worth it”

we were 2 of 6 people staying in this giant hotel at the time, it was very comfortable, with an amazingly opulent reception area, and huge rooms. the rooms have seen better days, but are very clean, comfortable and well appointed. the location is a little outside of town and tuk tuks seem to be the only method of transport available, most will charge around baht to get to the centre, which is expensive compared to prices in other areas of thailand. the pool was a little murky and could do with a bit of modernisation, but functionally fine and nice after a day of temple hopping! a lot of air force seem to use this hotel, and it was very empty when we were there, you get the feeling it has had its day, perhaps not so popular any more, but the staff are very helpful and the hotel is very well kept. the staff were extremely helpful, but their level of english varied hugely. this is completely understandable, as i don't think a lot of english speaking tourists pass this way, and they did their best to ensure we were very comfortable, but just to let you know, if you need to ask specific questions about the area etc. it would be a good idea to ask at the tourist office in town, as it does upset the staff when they can't understand you. they were extremely sweet, and this is not a criticism, just advice for english-speaking tourists.

Could be great”

The hotel staff is great, the grounds, gardens, rooms, and all could be fantastic, but in serious need of regular good maintenance. Light bulbs burned out, shower hook broken, etc. This hotel/resort could be a jewel.

Nice hotel very friendly staff”

I stayed already 3 times in this hotel. The hotel is situated just outside the centre of the city. in a quiet area. Good private parking. The big pool is situated in the garden. I did like the relax area, and in 5 minutes you are in the city centre. The hotel is also good to visit with children.

Nice hotel for the transient customers”

i chose this hotel because it listed a sauna and massage, but since the sauna was located in the spa area and it was new year's day, this facility was closed. i was disappointed. the service was adequate and the room was a nice size, clean, and well-maintained for an older hotel.

Beautiful Grand Old Dam, tired staff and service.”

I was impressed with the layout of beautiful lakes and gardens as I entered the hotel grounds. The attendant greeted me at my cab and led me into the a magnificently grand lobby; I was at first impressed with the elaborate detail in the workmanship, but all the lights were off and I also felt a eery mysterious quiet -- as if I were in some movie where strange things would happen. The lady at the reception desk was preoccupied with something in the back room and when she finally came out I learned through her cavalier attitude she spoke not one word of English. I finally thought conveyed to her I had a reservation and eventually she gave me a key to a room. The room hardly looked like the photos of Superior room I booked, but rather than struggle with her again, i settled with my disappointment. I arrived with a thirst and an appetite, and a trip to look for a snak only made me realize none of the sparse staff were either friendly or spoke any English. I went to the door attendant and made him realize i wanted a taxi, during this conversation I could smell alcohol on his breath. I got my taxi, went to town and bought some food and drink to bring back with me. Breakfast was included with the room and it was neither good or bad. I ate and was happy i only booked for one day. I got my bags from the room and gave my key to a different receptionist, she said "check tout?" I said yes, then went to await my cab. I was in the cab when the door attendant indicate they needed me back at the desk. I got out of the cab and went back inside to the desk. The receptionist said "you must pay for room!" I took another 20 minutes to get her to look at her computer to see i had reserved and paid through Agoda. She said "sorry!" In my opinion it was a sorry experience, my first "sorry" experience in Thailand. I think they all had been drinking...

Hotel quite and reasonable accomodation”

reasonable hotel to stay in korat if your are visiting family or friends. need access to car as taxis are very rare and not available at night. nice gardens and grounds peaceful and quite stay if staying in korat city

Nice big Hotel on the outer Korat city center”

Very nice building, both outside and inside, however this Hotel seems to have seen its best days and lots of facilities are closed such as the gym, spa. The Korat community has built the Towns water cleaning facility next to the Hotel so that's the view from 50% of the rooms.

Grand 'old' hotel in city center with all the spec”

Hotel was a real 'find' and looked like a GRAND OLD Hotel that impressive guests would select. Breakfast was average, but did provide an egg to order cook. This was a 3 star hotel.

Pool under repair”

I chose this hotel because of the pool. It was closed for repair and looks like it will likely be so for some time. The hotel is an old majestic hotel but has not been kept up.

Lovely hotel and service with a smile”

Nice hotel my only issue was the food. I spent 4 days here over christmas and the chef was on holidays so most of the menu was unavailable. Basic Thai food only. Could not even make me a milk shake as they had no ice cream.

Hotel past its prime”

the hotel is high above the surrounding land and parking so it's a climb to get up there. it's an impressive building but has not been properly maintained and shows its age. there was no one to help with our luggage when we arrived. the free wifi was really free. it was possible to connect to the wifi network for free, but could not access the internet for free.

disappointment”

i would not stay here again. if lacks the necessary features of any decent hotel. the buffet had very few choices. the hotel is far from any restaurants. Why they have not upgraded their phone system needs to be fixed.

spooky and over the hill”

this hotel obviously built back when the neighborhood less industrialized--once out on the main rd it is a dirty, deafening strip on the wrong side of town--and a hike to any decent shopping,eating or sightseeing. the hotel itself had dirty, worn carpets, broken windows and was generally very "down at the heels". Picke this because of pool and gym; fitness center was closed for reno? and pool was dirty. I would not recommend this to anyone.

This hotel needs renovation. ”

the hotel was okay, but needs renovation. if we come to korat, we will stay here again

Could be a nice hotel, amenities out of function”

could be a nice hotel, but advertisements are a lie: it´s not in the centre, but outside; no pool working, no fitness.

Hotel dated and far from every thing on busy road”

Hot dated,far from everything, on busy road, breakfast terrible. swimming pool access to hotel proper poor. Never stay here again

was a beautiful hotel once”

Was once a Beautiful hotel, but in serious modernisation, the pool and area are woeful. breakfast was poor. A large hotel, but I think for a couple of days I was the only one staying there. Not in a good area/ position for centre, nothing around hotel.

lovely hotel”

15 minutes away from town...peace and serenity with large rooms to be pampered with

Just okay... There is nothing special to say...”

There is not much to say about this hotel... It is a large hotel... I have stayed before and each time it was almost empty...

ok”

very quite , nice gardens but swimming pool unusable
