Udon Thani, a significant city in the northeastern region of Thailand, serves as a crucial trading hub before reaching Laos. It also boasts a rich historical background, as evidenced by the Ban Chiang archaeological site, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that fills Thais with pride. During this trip, I opted for a budget-friendly, clean, and convenient accommodation option near Nong Prajak Lake, leading me to the Hop INN Hotel. The surrounding area offers a variety of dining and drinking establishments, along with a 7-Eleven convenience store. While the streets may appear dimly lit at night, traveling in groups provides peace of mind due to the constant presence of people in the vicinity.


The building is surrounded by a parking lot that can accommodate 30-40 cars. The atmosphere is simple, and at night there may be some noise from the nearby bar, but it is not loud enough to disturb your sleep. The rooms here cost 600 baht per night, but if you are a member and book through the website http://www.hopinnhotel.com/, you will receive a special discount. This time, I got a room for 499 baht per night, which is a great deal.


Upon arrival, guests presented their reservation, provided their names, registered for their stay, and received their keys.

There is a hot water kettle and a microwave for those who are hungry. You can buy instant noodles or ready-to-eat meals and heat them up in the microwave. In the morning, there is also tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and hot milk available.

For those who want to relax and eat, but are afraid of the smell in their room, there is also a bar in that area.

The corridors are well-lit, clean, and equipped with CCTV cameras on every floor for security purposes.

The rooms here are available in two types: double bed and single bed. Both types have the same price, room size, and amenities.

Each room features a window with an outside view, a counter for resting, placing belongings, or working. A refrigerator is available for storing drinks or food, and guests can relax, watch TV, or sleep comfortably.

The bathroom is not small, but it is just the right size. It is well-organized, with a clear division of space. There are towels for drying your body and hair, as well as toiletries that are conveniently dispensed by pressing a button next to the showerhead.

Daily housekeeping services are provided. Guests who are concerned about the security of their valuables can inform the lobby to opt out of housekeeping. In such cases, amenities such as water and tissues will be left outside the room.

After settling in, you are free to explore the surroundings or take a nap to recharge.

This time, we rented a car from ThaiRentCar. The staff was friendly and helpful, providing thorough inspections and advice. With the car ready and a comfortable bed to rest in at Hop INN, we were free to explore as much as we wanted. With over 60 branches nationwide, Hop INN is a great choice for travelers. Members who book directly on their website can also earn points to redeem for discounts.

Finally, I would like to ask you to keep my food and travel page in your hearts. ^^
