Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel Hotels

James stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-06-22 and said, "It was a nice enough hotel, but not as nice as I expected. I checked in and there were no towels in the bathroom. I was hot from traveling and wanted a shower. It took three phone calls and over 20 minutes before towels were delivered. Other than that it was OK. Breakfast was marginal in taste. A lot of variety, but nothing that I wanted to eat. I probably would not go back to this hotel unless the other two hotels were full."

Frank stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-06-21 and said, "Good Hotel, little bit old inside, but for me inportant hot shower, clean room, very quite aircondition and it works very good. Just near a big mall with plenty off shops, even open on Sunday. Stayed there a few days to visited some friends. Is alright for some days heard from mine friends Hotel is bought by france group and will be complete renovated in the next year."

Ernest stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-06-17 and said, "Very nice hotel, situated close to everything you need to enjoy your stay. Right next to major shopping complex with anything and everything, night market and transportation. Had a senior suite which was big, comfortable and very relaxing. Room was clean and modern, cleaned when we asked and very quiet. If we had one very minor dissapointment, it was that reception staff very rarely had a welcoming smile when contacted and perhaps the breakfast menu for foreigners could be expanded to cater for more selection. Other than that they were very helpful. The hotel had an excellent foyer which greets you with a very serene atmosphere. I will be staying there again when I return. Overall, excellent value for money."

Gregory stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-06-16 and said, "Value for money is OK in aown that doesnt have many reasonable hotels. Two problems - breakfast caters mainly for Asian visitors e.g. no cereal for westerners, and the front of house staff never smile or joke - a very sour lot!"

David stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-05-23 and said, "Stayed at this hotel for 2 days. It is an older type hotel, well located in Udon Thani, not expensive and very comfortable. The check in was fantastic, some hotels in Thailand make you suffer at check in, but this one facilitated the check in procedure very smoothly. I like that.I loved the foyer - Japanese Koi pond was really nice. Restaurant and breakfast satisfactory.The staff at this hotel are excellent. Very courteous, polite, happy and helpful.Would stay there again."

All good ..... Chris Patrick"

Erik stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-04-07 and said, "NIce hotel with friendly staff. The rooms looked very good considering the low price. I did miss coffee/tea making facility in the room. As mentioned before the breakfast is not that good - that is if you want continental bf - mostly cold food and not much to choose from. If you like asian bf then you are better of - my wife was happy with the food that was freshly prepared for her.I will return here in the future."

Jörg stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-04-05 and said, "Ich hatte die Junior Suite. Riesig.Am Hotel ist negativ, dass von irgendwo nachts Musiklärm dringt. Gegenüber ist zwar eine Disco, ich tippe jedoch eher auf hausgemachten Lärm. Das nervt und ist vielleicht in den oberen Stockwerken nicht zu hören. Die Lage des Hotels ist ok, da nebenan ein Einkaufszentrum und Restaurants sind (sehr praktisch) und auch nur wenige Fussminuten entfernt ein Markt ist. Das Frühstück ist sehr einheimisch , aber ok.Transfer vom Flughafen zum Hotel und zurück sehr günstig und klappt sehr gut."

zahid stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-03-16 and said, "standard is going down a little but i think the best hotel in udonthani"

Dennis stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-02-28 and said, "Large, comfortable hotel with spacious rooms and very friendly and helpful staff. Good location near bus terminal. Buffet breakfast has a wide choice but the hot selection was cold and the nightclub opposite may keep you awake. Good WIFI reception in room at 200TBH for an hour."

Mr. stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-01-22 and said, "If you have to come to Udon Thani the choice of hotels is limited but the Charoensri was the only hotel I would have really considered. The large shopping complex next door has everything you could need - shops, restaurants, super market etc. There are also a few bars or coffee shops nearby with cheap of free wireless internet if you buy a drink. The room was adequate but the breakfast was quite poor as was the evening entertainment. They have a swimming pool but it was not staffed so you have to help yourself to a towel and can t get a drink. The hotel seemed popular for business conferences and with Thai tour groups, the bass from the tour busses might wake you in the morning though, get a room at the rear of the hotel if possible.We usually stay in the Sofitel in Khon Kaen which has much higher standards of food, service and facilities but we stayed in Udon because we were going North to see Nong Khai after our stay. My wife s family live half way between Udon Thani and Khon Kaen so because we have the choice we wouldn t stay here again, but when you consider that it was only 1300 Baht for a deluxe room you can t complain and it does represent value for money."

BASTYNS stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-01-21 and said, "Good international class hotel.Very good restaurant."

Irving stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2008-01-19 and said, "Clean comfortable rooms with convenient location close to train station as well as bus station for those relatively short local visits within the province. Very good breakfast buffet. Friendly and helpful staff."

Dan stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-12-29 and said, "Probably the best their is in Udon but certain rooms need to be updated (old worn carpet etc) and the fitness center has toxic fumes coming out of the vents which make exercising in there difficult. It would also be nice if they sprayed more often for mosquitos."

Elmer stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-12-16 and said, "Resident 12/16/07 to 1/3/08. Stayed here many times beginning 12/03. Last year the Volvo dealership building across the street was converted into a nightclub. If you stay on the side of this three sided hotel which faces the club expect to be annoyed by the most throbbing base beat you ever heard all day and most of the night. Also avoid room meal service unless you re prepared to deal with the necessity of 4 days of electrolyte replacement. Breakfasts are ok and included in the room price. For other meals go to the restaurants which adjoin the hotel in the shopping complex which are quite acceptable although service in the Italian restaurant next door is very slow. For Internet access there are better alternatives to the hotel service but that is true of every hotel which charges 4 to 6 times more than should be charged for internet access. Laundry service is excellent and the staff is helpful. The travel service located in the lobby is excellent. I will continue to choose this hotel for my frequent trips to Udon but will specify that I do not want a room on the front side. Although there are other acceptable hotels in Udon, this one has the best location for overall convenience."

Marna stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-12-14 and said, "Cleaning the rooms could be much better. Rooms at the same side of the main street is not acceptable due to much noice from the music place across the street - you simply can´t sleep after 2 o´clock - Hotel changed our room on demand and that is ok.The hotel should offer fresh fruith every dag in the room - as it is a 5 star hotel.We had a booking for 17 days at a lower rate than my son and that is not acceptable as J paid his bill as well. He did not order, J did at arriwal.So actually the hotel had to room fully booked for 17 days.Cleaning of the swimming Pool did not live up to standard. The first 2-3 days it was ok but the rest of the time the pool was not clean you could simply see the dirt on the floor of the pool.4 times during our stay we were missing towels or other things - and still it is a 5 stars hotel - this shoul be improved as well.Staff. Nice and polite no problem."

Stan stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-11-06 and said, "Room was nice but in need of some new carpeting (many burns and cuts) and a new bed cover (tears in the cover). Excellent breakfast buffet...best I have had in Thailand. Customer service was excellent. Very convenient to shopping center."

Mike stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-10-31 and said, "Staff not very friendly by usual Thai standards but food was very well priced, a wide range and very tasty. Rooms could do with renovation but were clean. A great swimming pool for young kids and a central location next to shopping mall. Good value for money."

K stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-10-19 and said, "The staff was very helpful, and the hotel was very nice. I enjoyed my stay there, and will use it anytime I return to Udon. Prices of all goods and services were very reasonable! The spa is good, and the massage was very good, and at 600 baht a real bargain! Breakfast was good, if a bit cold for my taste. If you stick to coffee and omelettes or eggs, it is good. Coffee bar could make espresso, latte and cappuccino, and the staff was very tolerant of a farang practicing bad Thai!"

Peder stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-10-13 and said, "Nice Hotel. Best in Udon Thani, but not same class as more normal tourist placesPerfect italian restaurent just 30 m from hotel.People are nice"

JimBramich stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-05-12 and said, "I found the hotel ok and have no real major complaints.I will stay there again on my next visit.The location is good being next to the major shopping centre and close to the bus station and there is ample underground parking.The rooms (I had a delux room) are a little run-down but are well laid out and have plenty of chairs and a small table for dining etc.There is internet in the lobby (THB30 for an hour). I was able to pick up a TOT WIFI hotspot signal in the room but could not log on. However, I was able to pick up free WIFI from one of the bars in the area which meant that I had WIFI internet on my notebook in the room although in another room there may not have been a signal.Free WIFI in the rooms is something that I beleive the hotel should consider offering.Breakfast was included in the price and the food was reasonable except that the eggs and sausages were almost cold on most mornings.The 24 hour room service was excellent and cheap however if ordering Isaan Thai dishes be careful because they were very spicey (hot) and my Thai friend who comes from the area could not eat them because of the amount of chillie."

Michael stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-04-06 and said, "Hotel is ok, very clean and big rooms. only you should try to avoid getting rooms to the main street on down floors. There is a discothek over the street, sometimes you hear the basses and drums if you want to sleep before 02.00pm"

Ng stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-03-24 and said, "The hotel is close to long-distance bus station, night market and a supermarket just next door. Check-in, check-out and hotel transfers went without a hitch. Rooms are big and clean, well-appointed and all fixtures work. Services up to standard and hotel meals are cheap and good. Only gripe I like to mention is the presence of mosquitoes. A hotel staff was kind to provide me with an ultra-violet insect repellent lamp when he saw me sitting at the lounge early one morning. It is highly recommended."

Zahid stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-03-18 and said, "no doubt best hotel in udon. i have stayed here few times but i think standard is going down a bit. they use to have tea and coffee making facilty in the room but did not see this time. they charge me for accidently breaking a glass in the room . it was a bit mean of them specially when you are paying 1300 per night for a room. but i think it still is the best hotel in udon. breakfast and buffet lunch is good"

Denzil stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-03-17 and said, "Hotel is very central. Rooms good. Breakfast fairly poor - not huge choice; hot dishes, like eggs, cold.Shuttle bus to/from airport - 30 baht.Overall, good value."

William stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-01-28 and said, "Excellent value. Comfortable and well appointed rooms with an in-room safe for storing valuables. Good breakfast buffet with nice selection of European and Asian fare. Just a little slow if you want eggs to order. Staff is quite helpful and friendly. If you need Internet access, visit one of the Internet cafes just across the street, as the hotel s connection is really slow. The hotel is quite close to shopping, transportation and nightlife, with a Robinson s department store in the mall next door. Lot s of restaurants nearby. Hard to find a decent beer unless you walk a few short blocks to The Irish Clock, which features Guinness and Kilkenny and has a decent menu as well. Several other good eateries within a few blocks of the hotel. One of the best values in Thailand. My wife and I highly recommend it."

Chris stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2007-01-20 and said, "Much nicer than we ever expected. Very clean and well-kept. The location is very convenient. The restaurant is very good and very reasonably priced. We really enjoyed our stay here!!! The only place worth staying in Udon Thani."

Colin stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2006-10-27 and said, "Rooms at CGRH are quite good standard. Located next to main shopping/cinema complex in Udon so better than Ban Chiang hotel."

David stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2006-10-21 and said, "Hotel standard was very good, staff helpful and friendly and room was of a high standard except the carpet has seen better days . Considering the price we paid excellent value. I have paid ten times as much in london and have a much lower stardard . One word of warning DO NOT use the Taxi stand in the hotel lobby. We did and paid three times the taxi fare to the friendship bridge , meant to be 400 THB, and the driver drop us off at an agents office( NOT at the bridge terminal) and that nice lady charged us 500 THB to cross the bridge, meant to be 20 THB . Use this Taxi service at your peril."

Mike stayed at Charoensri Grand Royal Hotel on 2006-08-06 and said, "Great hotel in a great location for a very affordable price. The staff was very friendly and VERY helpful.
