Room was very dirty and run down. There were stains and dark residue on walls, furniture, and the floor. And parts of the floor and walls was coming off/damaged. Not to mention, a huge line of ants going from the floor to the ceiling in the right corner of the room next to the window. Ended up having to switch hotels after a day due to these conditions. Talked with hotel staff and they agreed to a refund for the remainder of the time that we were supposed to stay there. However, it never went through. (I don’t know if it’s because Expedia’s staff messed things up or not. Cause Expedia’s agents themselves said everything was confirmed with the refund from the hotel and then later they went back on what they said, saying they can’t confirm or reach the hotel.)

Clean room, great staff. The hotel is very old and tired looking but I had a nice stay. I didn’t swim in the pool but my observation was that it was very small compared to the size of the hotel.
I did note that almost all public areas in the hotel needed vacuuming and cleaning.
Breakfast was ok .. pretty much what you get in most budget places

I stayed for 2 nights and though this property is a bit aged, it is well kept and cleaned. I requested a room with a HDTV that was not mounted on the wall so I could relocate to sit nearer, they obliged my room swap. Most of the front desk were friendly and helpful, the concierge were very agreeable and helpful with luggage.

The Bfast offerings were awesome and top quality, eggs cooker on demand and high quality fried rice, fruits, so many choices!

I would just live here perpetually if I could get a better price.

Had flooding In bathroom as there was obviously a blockage in drain in shower base and after telling management they eventually just removed the grate in shower base drain and said that would eliminate prom blem but working for a plumbing supply for many years I knew that wasn't the fix for problem. And bathroom continued to flood when we had a shower. So eventually we had to change rooms.

Hotel is dated and basic

Everything about this hotel is very dated and basic. The room was large but the bed was not very comfortable. There is a pool, facing the main road; the grounds could have used a little attention. Like many hotels it had really suffered from low bookings due to Covid and the place was a bit sad. Reception staff were helpful and very polite. Food in restaurant (we only had breakfast) was mediocre.

Great location- some rooms have been upgraded and others seem to be 30 years behind the times. I got one such room after our modern room had a broken AC unit. The new room we received had no outlets that could charge an I Phone- they did supply us with a long extension cord later. Breakfast was included, but the options were very few and rather plain and simple.

Review of the Charoen Hotel. Udon Thani

We stayed at this hotel before some years ago. It is good value for money, and the staff are all very friendly and helpful. But our room was noisy due to heavy road traffic which we could hear. Upon notifying the staff they moved us straight away to their newer hotel next door. We are very happy with this hotel.

Great hotel but getting a bit old and in need of T

A great hotel. Only one gripe I put some of my belongings in the safe deposit box at reception upon arrival. When I went to take some things out a day or two later they could not get the box unlocked but eventually after much turning of keys and different people trying eventually it unlocked ! When I went to check out same thing again the box would not unlock again and this time whatever they tried did not work and I was told to come back later, which I did but still they couldn't open it. Luckily eventually they managed to free it. The point I'm making this is a problem that should have been sorted immediately they realised the problem the first time. Don't they have locksmiths in Thailand !??

Value for money; comfortable, in the heart of town

The hotel has probably been renovated recently. Every thing in the room was as per the details on website. The room was comfortable. The drains need de-clogging, in the shower, as the water takes a long time to drain. The location was right in the centre of town, within walking distance of the Central mall. Breakfast was adequate for non vegetarians. The hotel specially made stir fried vegetables for me, as I am a vegetarian and there were limited choices on the buffet menu. Comfortable stay.

Very large hotel

Stayed 10-Oct-2016 for 1 night in superior twin room 347 with breakfast. Breakfast was the usual English cooked choices, cereal, Thai food, fruit, but they also had crab fried rice which was a first in all my stays.
The corridor to our room was very long and they had lifts at each end. An assistant had a desk situated on our floor (and possibly other floors). Rooms accessed by electronic key-card which they had problems programming initially. The electrics and aircon remain on when you leave the room. The room had a wood laminate floor with a fine of 5,000Baht if it suffered water damage. Room adequately furnished with chairs, table & chair and coffee/kettle/phone/safe.

A single strip-light was over the sink but the bath/shower was gloomy(but you can still see). The shower hose was short, just reached my head.

Nice looking pool, however the wide steps that led into it was gravel and painful to the feet. The deep end had a diving board but the shallow end was 5-feet, so not suitable for small persons. There was also an adjacent childrens pool.

Next to the hotel were a Karaoke with VIP rooms, and 'Yellow Bird Disco - band playing with Thai youngsters in groups watching. Not sure if this was part of the hotel.

Central shopping centre/market plaza was 15-minute walk away.

Wonderful staff. Great location 10 minute walk to Central Plaza, main bus station.
15 minutes to UD Town with lots of restaurants and a large Tesco. Great laundry on the left on the way.
Ironed shirts beautifully and repaired two shirts. Had to fight to pay for the sewing!

I stayed in a recently refurbished room, which was good for the price (1,000 baht)
The pool area is really run down. Even the plastic chairs and tables are battered and dirty.
I left the chambermaid 20 baht a day which is nothing to hotel visitors but if more people did it would be great.

The food was good and the inclusive breakfast was of a good quality and good choice, although the place can get get very busy, the staff are very keen to keeping the tables clear and available,

Nice enough room, but...

A large, comfortable room at a fair rate. But hotel and restaurant staff struck me as not particularly caring, nor necessarily honest. A bit disturbed to see the menu price for pad grapow gai in the English portion of the menu listed at a price 30 Baht higher than grapow gai/moo in the Thai language section of the menu (I'm Caucasian, and the waiter seemed a bit surprised to see me order something from the Thai portion of the menu...) . I did drink a beer from the \"refrigerator bar\" one night. A Chang, listed at 45 Baht. When checking out, I was told to pay 50 Baht. I said no... It's 45 Baht (from the in-room pricelist). The clerk looked at me and said \"service charge.\" While the amounts in question are niggling, the attitude of those involved is not. That attitude spins the entire hotel in a completely different direction. I see no reason to return here.
