Set just back off the Moon River, the Sri Isan is a new incarnation of the shocking old hotels that used to be operate here under the same name. This new spot is a fine looking, excellent value hotel. The hotel is spotless with an airy and bright atrium with immaculate, bright and spotless rooms throughout. Extremely competitive rates - easily the best value in Ubon.

Nice place - 11th February, 2009
Standard rooms go for 550 baht without breakfast. WLAN is for free inside the building.
Rooms are a bit smallish but cozy. The place is in a good location right next to a fres hmarket on the Mun River in a nice area.

we loved Sri Isan - 16th January, 2009
they did not have a standard double for us when we checked in, so we took a junior suite, thinking we might switch the next night, but decided to keep it for our stay in Ubon. Suite was at the front of the hotel on the second floor and was very comfortable, all done up in white and spotlessly clean. Suite actually had TWO full bathrooms! Food on offer in the restaurant was great, very tasty and fresh, extensive menu, good cocktails, too. Girls at the front desk were super friendly and helpful, steered us away from the persistent taxi tout who hangs around in the lobby (apparently he springs a hefty petrol charge on clients AFTER the trip is done, on top of whatever he has previously quoted for the day), and sorted out an amiable and energetic driver with a pick-up for a day trip out to Pha Taem NP and Khong Chiam, with stops at the interesting Wat Phu Khao Kaew and another very unique white wat with a huge orchid garden, the name escapes me...we had a great time talking with him using our poor Thai skills and the LP phrasebook, blasting morlam the whole day!
Also loved the market across the way, for excellent early morning sock coffee and cheap, tasty evening meals with icy beer--beers here were even cheaper than the 7-11.
We were in town for the festive Loi Krathong celebration and jumped right into the mix at a nearby riverside wat, loads of fun!
we much preferred this area of town to stay rather than the more popular area across town around the Nevada.

Good location, good spot. - 7th January, 2009
Found this place after checking out a number of other spots on both sides of the river. Price had dropped ... we payed 600 and that included breakfast. Despite the rat trying to chew through our wall in the middle of the night, I'd stay there again.
Decent day market, and a better night market near Tung Sri Muang Park, which is a must-visit in the evening! The park is about a 3 minute walk from the hotel, away from the river.
There isn't much to choose from in Ubon. This is probably the best for the money.

Sri Isan Hotel - 7th June, 2008
Small, spotless rooms. Comfortable and well fitted out. Helpful staff, but not much English. Food in the market over the road is superb and incredibly cheap. Very nice place to stay.

Old & Poor keeping - 12th May, 2009
Mold all over bathroom - Spiders behind window curtains - Found live cockroach on lobby/restaurant - Very weak WiFi - Right in front of a noisy market - Moved after only 1 night stay to The Phaedeng Mansion (newly built, cleaner, friendlier & 250B cheaper).

A pretty basic hotel - 7th July, 2008
Stayed at the Sri Isan in early June. It's a pretty basic hotel: Rooms are small and clean with comfortable beds. Unappreciated in the guidebooks is the restaurant in the lobby... it's very good. Across the street is a market that's active all the time, although a major redevelopment project has cut the Sri Isan off from an attractive river front. We found the people at the desk to be sullen and generally unhelpful. It seemed to us that the Sri Isan was the only choice in this part of town. Ubon Ratchathani appears to have no taxis and the samlor ('tuk-tuk') drivers tend to congregate in few places, rather than roam for fares.

Recommended - 23rd January, 2008
No problems here. Rooms were on the small side but for 650 baht you can't complain. Not much English spoken. The food markets across the road are fantastic, with some great, cheap food - and you can eat with the locals.
