Khon Kaen is not a resort town like those on the beaches in southern Thailand. Nor has it the character of Bangkok. But if you want to visit the province of Isaan, I would highly recommend using Khon Kaen as a base for your travels.
It has numerous hotels to suit all taste and pockets, is located on the main highway north to Nongkai and Laos and has all the western comforts usually sought after travelling in rural areas of this amazing province. There are many restaurants and bars in the city, most are of very high quality. Shopping is unbelievably cheap, especially for electronic goods.
There are many day trips out of Khon Kaen that are well worth a visit. If you play golf there is a good 18 hole course about 35 minutes drive from the city on the shores of Ubolratana lake, which in itself is worth a day tip to see the many beautifull things in the national park that surrounds it. Khon Kaen would not suit everybody but those who are travelling in the province would not find a better base.
