Find Apartments in Nongkhai, Thailand

I really liked the Tanzeno hotel. While Nong Khai is not a large Thailand City, the hotel is minutes off the main highway to Vientiane. The rooms were modern, clean and well-furnished; the hotel was good value for money. The staff was pleasant and helpful. My stay was highlighted by an unfortunate incident – my fault entirely. The room had a safe and as I usually do when I stay in a hotel, I put my key documents in the hotel safe. Well for the first time in my life I did not empty the safe before I vacated the room and left my passport, credit cards, a fairly large amount of cash and other key documents in the hotel safe and drove to my home some 700 km South of Nong Khai. I did not realize until I got a phone call from the lady in my city who owns a taxi service to tell me some 2 days after I arrived home that she had been contacted by the Tanzeno hotel to inform me that I had left my passport and other items in the hotel safe. I have no idea how the hotel got her phone number. When I realized what I had done, I called to hotel and spoke to Ms. Doe, one of the hotel managers and she told me what had happened. She asked me how she can get the documents back to me, I gave her my address and she sent the items back to me by Thailand Post. This morning I received the package with all my documents, cash, credit cards etc. What a relief! So this note is a thank you to the staff at the Hotel Tanzeno for their honesty and their extensive efforts to return these documents to me and also to the Thailand Postal Service. If you look on the Thailand blogs, you will see the Thailand Postal service gets bad reviews. It took 2 working days for the package to get to me and their on line tracking system was very good giving me updates of where the package was. So if you ever have a need to stay in Nong Khai, I highly recommend the Tanzeno Hotel. You will not be disappointed!

I had noticed this hotel almost 1 year ago as I live in Nongkhai and thought I must try this hotel one day. Its location is close to the Friendship Bridge and Immigration. It is about a 5-10 minute ride from the centre of Nongkhai and its attractions. The hotel has a swimming pool which is clean and an outside dining area. We stayed in the wooden bungalow which was traditional in Thai style and very clean. The breakfast was good and there is a choice of about five sets of breakfast. The staff are friendly and helpful. The only bad comment I have to make about this hotel is that they are currently building phase 2 of the hotel at the rear of the bungalows and the noise from construction works starts at 08.00am - 18.30pm which is not very good if you want to relax in your room. I believe the construction works will continue until February 2013.

Great little hotel in NongKhai. We spotted it last time we were in the town but had already booked elsewhere. We were most happy for the peace and quiet of this hotel after the visa run to Laos. The garden and views of the river are beautiful and then we walked into town for a meal at a Vietnamese restaurant on the river which seemed popular with local residents. The staff were friendly and the fact that the hotel and all furnishings are new and clean (we’ve had some nightmares before in Nongkhai and Udon) we’ll try and stay here next time. We stayed in the garden room but next time would like to stay in the river front rooms because we saw they have balconies and bathrooms that look out onto the river. Really nice. Philippa

There are two hotels in Nong Khai, the Nongkhai Hotel and Resort and the Nongk Khai resort both close to the train station. The hotel is part of a parking lot come warehouse and is quite a way from the main city and restaurants, you definately need a car to stay here or use a Tuk Tuk or Taxi to get into the city. The plus point is that if you wish to obtain a visa from the Thai embassy they will organise a car to take you their and back the next day for Thai Baht1,800. There is also a shop adjacent to the hotel if you are there for a visa run, to compare prices. The only problem I found was the electric sockets were worn and needed servicing and it was difficult to use your charger even with a thai adaptor. I stayed in one of the chalets at the rear of the hotel come garage/warehouse which was reasonably comfortable. The lady at reception called "Mon" speaks very good English.
