The Englishman's Retreat - Guest House & Leisure Club The Englishman's Retreat is a small boutique Hotel on the edge of Udon Thani, a vibrant city in the North East of Thailand, 600kms from Bangkok and a 1 hour flight to Udon's International airport. One of its main captions is its close proximity to the Laos border across the Friendship bridge at Nong Khai, just 50kms north The guesthouse is only 15 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Udon Thani city centre, but far enough away to be considered a RETREAT. With its high castle walls the guesthouse definitely feels like a retreat once inside, and the Beefeater styled uniforms adds an even more British ambiance. The whole feel of the guesthouse is very private. One guest actually said he felt he was staying in a private villa, referring to the way his accomodation opened on to the swimming pool terrace, and how he couldn't hear the coming-and-going of other residents, like that of larger hotels. Probably the most amazing thing about the guesthouse is the price of a room, you get all the trimmings of a 5 star hotel (swimming pool, gym, etc.) yet you pay a similar price to that of a hotel - just 450bt per night. The Guesthouse has virtually everything you need at your fingertips, from toiletries (...and parasetamol) to Motorcycle Hire. The Pool side bar and restaurant serves food from 8am to 9pm and is said to offer the best value around in Udon Thani, serving up authentic Thai dishes from just 49bt, and with a good selection of Western foods many of them just 99bt.
