Sensational Ban Chiang ”

From the moment we were driven into the hotel entrance, we could sense something special about this hotel in Udon Thani. The check in staff were very efficient and helpful, and the bell captain and his staff were fabulous. The room was very well appointed and had a good sized bathroom,seating, and a comfortable bed. There was ample hanging space and a security safe within the room. On the occasions that we required room service, the delivery was extremely fast. Transportation into the city was located at the front entrance, and there were many choices of small shops and market stalls within a minutes walk from the main hotel entrance gate. I would most certainly stay at the Ban Chiang Hotel on future trips to this wonderful city, and I would thoroughly recommend other people to stay here when visiting Udon Thani for business or pleasure. The photos of the hotel displayed on the Agoda website are accurate.

classy looking hotel”

my second stay here, i just love this hotel, is in a quiet location but not far from the centre of udon thani. the buffet breakfast is great american/european/asian. oddly enough i have never seen another european in this hotel. the staff are friendly, rooms comfortable and clean, there is a coffee shop and a wine cellar, and a spa (not tried it yet), plenty of taxis just outside the hotel, spent an evening with cocktails in the lobbby.

Nice, quiet & a good deal... ”

a great place to stay in udon thani. the service was friendly & helpful although speaking thai can help too. the rooms were decent & the breakfast was your typical buffet found in most hotels. the location was right in town so getting around was no hassle but the biggest surprice was the peace and quiet. the other hotels in the same price range were not as nice or quiet and this info was passed on to me by friends who stayed at several other hotels scattered around udon thani but we met up at my hotel in the morning.

Good value for money”

i wanted a hotel with swimming pool for this visit, so i chose the ban chiang from agoda reviews. for the price this was an excellent choice, the pool is very large, the reception area is very nice. the rooms are of a high standard in my experience, and have travelled throughout thailand, they are very large, air-con extremely effective, big beds and good shower.

Great location and Spacious room.”

We had a reservation for 3 days only, but subsequently extended to 7 days. We had breakfast each morning, the food is average and could be better and more interesting. It is one of the few hotels in Udon Thani with a gym, which is good but we were dissappointed that we had to pay for the use of the gym and the charges are quite high. On the whole the hotel staff were polite and we enjoyed our stay.

A pleasant stay that could have been better”

My stay at the Ban Chiang Hotel was pleasant, but could have been better if not for some deficiencies. The rooms were clean, but the carpet and furniture were in need of being replaced and updated. The staff was friendly, helpful, and accommodating. There were computers and a printer available in the lobby. With the help of the staff, I was able to get some important papers printed. There was a singer in the lobby during the evening, and it was lovely to sit and hear her sing. The many mosquitoes, also in the lobby, were annoying, and made us leave the lobby area earlier than we had planned. Breakfast was the source of many deficiencies. Some of the food was cold and no attendants were available to resupply some of the food available earlier that morning. There was no attendant available to answer question nor prepare eggs at the omelet station. The hotel is located away from the major shopping and entertainment centers. If not for a few noticeable deficiencies, our stay at the Ban Chiang Hotel would have been much more enjoyable.

Nice Pool”

The Ban Chiang is a nice hotel close to the Udon market. The facilities are good and they have a good pool and gym.

Very cheap price, large 3 star hotel”

Pros: 1-Large room and clean 2-Room Price probably cheapest in udon thani for similar hotels 3-Not bad breakfast with some choices for forigners Cons: 1- no coffee making facility in room and small king bed 2- no good location, no entertainment expect being near biggest park in udon 3- You have to pay additional 125 baht to use the gym, Gym was avarge thai style gym with old equipment, and swimimng pool looked very dull 4- Lobby need a major face lift, very boring with no activity

Ban Chiang Hotel, Udon Thani”

I had never been to Udon before so i didn't know what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised when a bus picked me up from the airport and later found it was a free service the Hotel had arranged. The hotel itself i thought was ok but it just needs some redorating to smarten it up. The electrics in the room were some what unreliable. The TV stations were adequate with a few English speaking channels to suit most peoples needs. The bedding was quite old although clean. The food and service in the Restaurant was excellent and very resonably priced. The hotel had good facilities but i was quite angry to find out i had to pay to use the fitness centre, something i have never experienced at a hotel before. All in all i liked the Hotel although a bit far away from the main farang areas.

Ban Chiang Hotel”

The Ben Chiang hotel provides an excellent service for the business traveller with facilities including a gym and swimming pool. The rooms are spacious and clean and offer all the usual amenities. Well located in the downtown area, it is a short ride to the busy night market and shopping centre. A free shuttle bus to airport is provided 3 times a day.

Neither very good or very bad”

Ban Chiang was not my first choice, as it is a bit far from the centre. The hotels looks a bit sad, maybe because of vast empty spaces. Despite new carpets, the place smells as if the windows had not be opened for days. This being said, the rooms are quite large, the staff was helpful, the swimming pool clean and inviting, and the spa a pleasant surprise. The breakfast was ok, not so strong on western food, the mattresses a bit soft to my taste, and there is not a lot to do in the immediate neighbourhood. Not bad, then, but not an unforgettable experience either.

A good business hotel with very with fast internet”

first time visit to udon. the hotel is grand compared to surrounding buildings. it's all about what you get used to. i didn't like it at first, but after 3 nights it grew on me. getting around is cheap and easy with the tuk tuk's waiting for you outside the front doors of the hotel. the breakfast was litlle bit boring. the staff are mainly thai speaking but friendly. i would stay again. although, i know that there are lots of alternative accommodations now i have visited udon.

Only Average”

This was my first time at the Ban Chiang. It was not much more than adequate. The service was okay. The spa gave good massages. The restaurant food was barely adequate and the evening meals were always interrupted by karaoke. The hotel is only adequately maintained, but for the price, it was okay.

Quiet”

I think the old hotels are the best for peace and quiet,and this is one of the best In Udon Thani.the swimming area is dirty and not cleaned very often.

Ban Chiang Hotel”

The Ban Chiang is very good”

We've stayed here a few times as an overnight stop after a flight and have enjoyed it. The rooms are a bit dated, but comfortable. We had some electrical problems with the lighting, so were moved to another room. The restaurant has a good selection of nice dishes, for a good price. The breakfast is not extensive but adequate. The adjacent pool and gym is not 5 star but very usable. You are in Issan, so don't expect much English from the staff.

Good Hotel for conference”

this hotel central located in udonthani needs a fresh up, i stayed there 7 years ago, and nothing have changed since. from the room you can see they not take care interior outside the hotel. staff are still friendly and helpful, breakfast served in hallway and big room for enjoy the meal. when we stayed there it was help some kind of conference, so when we came home home after toured the city after dark, the section from frontdesk to restaurant was covered by middelaged thai men, who was very drunk, and some was making bad comments aqbout my wife. so we will not return here if they not change style of guests.

Good Hotel,good staff”

As you walk into reception you can see the one time grandier of this hotel,but its probabaly been 10 yrs since theres been a complete revamp.Still a very nice hotel ,in the top 2 in Udon.

Service without a smile here,no problem.”

Given a smoking room when requested non smoking,no other rooms available,yet it seemed like the hotel was half empty,very old dated hotel,in its day it was probably a fine establishment but today it is a run down 2nd rate hotel that i will not stay at again,The town is very spread out so its taxi's to anywhere really,plenty of b/b's all over at half the price yet twice the value,Udon Thani is a business centre,not too much for travellers to be interested in.
