When we booked rooms in hotels Thepnakorn last month, we were told that it was fully booked except for VIP rooms, at a price of 1,500 baht for the night. The same has curiously enough happened to us before. And judged by the almost empty restaurant at breakfast, I was quite unsure whether the allegation was in accordance with reality. When I also met a guest who had been given room at 650 bath for the night at the same time, my suspicion was even stronger. Well, Thepnakorn is probably considered by most as the finest hotel in Buriram, and is preferred by many Western visitors. Although it is a bit outside the city center. The staff is very friendly and service minded. Breakfast is the best you get in Buriram. The hotel appears a bit worn though and need soon an upgrade of the rooms. TV sets are of the old type, and there is little selection of western channels. The washbasin in the bathroom has only cold water and water pressure in the loose water tap was very poor. The shower works well, however. Like many Thai hotels are tile work in the bathroom a sad sight. The difference between VIP and common rooms are only the size, so it's not worth taking the extra costs, if not necessary. We stayed at the hotel for two nights before we moved to a more central and cheaper hotel.More
