Local Attractions

Three standout attractions are all within a 15-minute drive of the hotel:

• Korat City Gate (Pratu Chai): A 200-year-old historic landmark marking the entrance to old Korat, this iconic gate is surrounded by lively street food stalls and weekend night markets, perfect for sampling Isan’s famous som tam (papaya salad) and grilled pork.
• Thao Suranari Monument: Dedicated to the 19th-century local heroine who helped defend Korat from invasion, this revered monument sits in the city center and is surrounded by a park and weekly handicraft markets where you can pick up handwoven Isan silk.
• Khao Yai National Park: Thailand’s oldest national park is just a 45-minute drive from the hotel, home to wild elephants, waterfalls, hiking trails, and some of the country’s best wildlife spotting opportunities for day trips.

Travel Tips

Request a high-floor room for unobstructed city views and quieter nights, as lower floors can pick up minor street noise. The hotel is connected directly to Terminal 21 Korat Mall, so you’ll have easy access to hundreds of shops, a food court, and a cinema without stepping outside. If you’re renting a car to explore the region, take advantage of the free parking and EV charging stations on-site. Book early during peak season (November to February) when cool weather draws visitors to Isan, and confirm any paid services like laundry or meeting room bookings at check-in to avoid surprise charges.
