Is Sima Thani guest friendly?

[dutch 0]

before my house was ready,I spend a lot of time at Sima Thani.

Easy to find on the outskirts of Korat city ( mainroad to Bkk)

Limited English,but friendly staff

Reasonable good buffet

Reasonable prices ( from about 900-2500 baht for resp. room / suite)

Simple furnished

Damaged interior (wall paper),carpet

Very limited TV access

Most of the time ,I always enjoyed my stays (from a couple of days till a couple of weeks)

I didn't realise Rotherham could be so much fun....

There is a secret Korat that only we who live here know about...

Could anyone tell me how far the Sima Thani is from the Korat Princess hotel?

Many thanks.

Thanks.

sima tani very much a business hotel very nice but a bit out of the way, nice and quiete.

princess has a few nights with music and night club music, a more lively hotel if your young, and closer to the centre of town.

Will I find taxis or motorbike taxis outside these places?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Tuktuks and motorcycle taxis in the usual places. No "real" taxis in Korat. (Well, there is one guy who parks near The Monument who has a cardboard "taxi" sign sitting on top of his old car....)

Thanks again guy, I don't suppose anyone would know if either offer internet access?

The Sima Thani claims to be a 5 star, what about the Princess, are they both of a similar quality?

Thanks.

What's the easiest way to Korat from BKK and back again?

Thanks!
