Depending on your budget, I recommend Majestic Suites Hotel Right around the corner from NEP and about a block walk from the Skytrain. Great little hotel. Very clean, guest friendly and excellent staff. Try this link: http://www.asiahotels.com/hotelinfo/Majestic_Suites_/

Bringing a falang girl to Pattaya? Even if she is a lifelong pal. As my Pappy said to me when I first went to Thailand and thought (very briefly) that I should bring along my girlfriend. "Son, are you daft? Would you take a month old rancid ham sandwich to a buffet?" Leave her at home.....unless she is paying for your trip (including daily bar fines and sundry expenses)

Anyone have any advice for hotels in Khon Kaen? 750 - 1500/baht night range.

There is one review in the Hotel Review section for this place. Anybody have any contact information for it? Telephone, fax, e-mail. I am not having any luck locating it. Aloha
