Khon Kaen Centrum

Khon Kaen


What seems like an ordinary small Thai hotel sets itself apart in the details. The rooms are fairly striking in their white-themed decor and have high-quality furnishings. The owner, who lives on-site, is serious about service and cleanliness. And it's quiet because it's built at the back of the block. Guests can rent bikes and motorcycles.
