Udon Thani and Vientiane

A great place to stay in Udon is the Irish Clock. This is 800Baht per night and the rooms are big and comfortable. Also the food is excellent. Der Besitzer kommt aus England, aber seine Frau ist Thai.

In Vientiane the Vayakorn Hotel is about $15-20 a night and is a nice, clean place. It is right next to Monument Books in the middle of town. Is this too expensive? If so post and let me know or send me a pm.

Just saw you are coming in Nov 2009. You are posting a little to early to get sensible information. Things change quickly around here.

For budget accomodation in Udon theres a hotel called ';Top Mansion'; just along from the Irish Clock that charges 400baht (about USD11). I stayed there just before Xmas - they have clean basic aircon rooms with ensuite.

In Vientiane the Riverside Hotel is modern, clean and has TV/aircon/ensuite rooms for $14-15 (negotiable). It is just off the main riverside road Fa Ngum. There is a cheaper guest house opposite it with double for $3 with shared bathroom and fan, popular with backpackers.
