What is Khon Kaen like....

[Martin71]

Hello All,

I'm thinking of popping up to KK for a few days after Christmas and stay till about 02/03 Jan.

 I have read a few threads about KK but most of them are pre - covid.

I read the nightlife is around the Pullman Hotel..... does anyone have up to date info on reasonable hotels ( around 1,000 b per night) and bars in that rough area..... any info greatly appreciated

 

Thanks in advance....

Even pre-situation, it wasn't exactly a bustling town with 'expat' nightlife.  

 

Non expat 'nightlife' ... lakeside was always busy for food vendors & sipping.  Though I haven't been in years, but would think this would be one area to open back up first, due to 'local's' demand.

 

Check the Pullman's price, as we usually stayed there, being quite the bargain for the level of comfort.  And very good brekkie buffet, if wanting.

 

Not sure if anything new in the area, but I'd be surprised if anything surpasses it.  Also had an OK brewery in the lobby area.  Use to enjoy the 2 welcome drinks from there.

 

Use to be a KK forum ... not sure if still in existence.
