Lopburi Inn Resort — Lopburi's in-town resort with a pool, banquet hall and plenty of easy parking
If you want a Lopburi stay that feels like an in-town resort — a pool, big rooms and easy parking without driving far out, Lopburi Inn Resort is a name local travellers have known for years. It's an in-town resort in New Lopburi, in the Tha Sala area near the Asia Highway, renovated under the name Dad D Resort by Lopburi Inn Resort. The property is a resort-style building with a garden, spacious rooms — many with balconies over the pool — a restaurant, banquet/meeting halls for events, and very generous parking. Rooms start at around ฿900/night, good value for an in-town stay with a pool in Lopburi.
Lopburi is a town most people reach by car, or by train and then a rental car. Many in-town hotels are shophouse-style buildings or small properties where parking is awkward. Lopburi Inn Resort positions itself differently — an in-town resort with plenty of space, a garden, a pool and a large car park. It sits on the New Lopburi side, in the Tha Sala sub-district near the Asia Highway (Phahonyothin), the road that makes getting in and out of town easy. That suits travellers who drive and want a stay that's simple to pull into, without squeezing into the crowded old-town quarter.
The hotel is a long-standing in-town resort, renovated under the name Dad D Resort by Lopburi Inn Resort. There's a range of rooms, from Standard Twin for two, to a Deluxe Room, up to Suites that are roomier and suited to families. Reviewers most often praise the spacious rooms, high ceilings, comfortable beds, and that many rooms have a balcony looking out over the pool or garden. Rooms come with air-con, a TV, a fridge and a minibar. The overall feel is a relaxed in-town resort with room to breathe rather than a cramped block.
"Spacious, clean, quiet rooms, very helpful staff, tasty breakfast with plenty of choice, a pool the kids enjoyed, and a big easy car park. Good value for Lopburi."
What sets Lopburi Inn Resort apart from the small in-town hotels is its resort-style facilities. There's an outdoor pool to cool off in, a garden to stroll, an on-site restaurant, and large banquet/meeting halls that locals regularly use for weddings, parties and seminars. The 24-hour front desk handles shuttle, laundry and luggage storage, and parking is generous. Breakfast is a buffet that many reviewers describe as varied and good. It works well for families, groups, and anyone who wants an in-town Lopburi stay with a pool.
The location is in New Lopburi, on the Tha Sala side near the Asia Highway. It's about a 10-minute drive from the main sights — Phra Prang Sam Yod and the San Phra Kan Shrine — and reaches King Narai's Palace and Lopburi railway station in the old-town quarter in a similar time. There are restaurants and massage shops along the same road, so you can walk out for a bite. The thing to know is that this location is about car convenience and space, not walkable old-town sightseeing — to see the monkeys and the old temples, plan to drive in.
On scores, Lopburi Inn Resort rates well for an in-town Lopburi stay. The average from real guest reviews sits around 7.8 out of 10, with platforms placing it in the 7.6–8.0 band. Recurring praise covers spacious, clean, quiet rooms, helpful staff, good breakfast, the pool, and the big car park. The common gripes: the building and some fittings show their age, a few rooms have had reports of ants, and the location is outside the old-town quarter, so you drive in for the main sights.
Honestly, Lopburi Inn Resort is Lopburi's veteran in-town resort, and its appeal is in space, the pool, big rooms and easy parking rather than being a brand-new design hotel. If your trip is a family or a group, you're driving, you want a roomy stay with a pool for the kids, and you don't mind that the building isn't shiny and new — it fits and the price is fair. If you expect a brand-new boutique or want a base you can walk the old town from, adjust expectations or look at the other options in this round-up.
A tip from reading plenty of reviews here: if you're with kids or want the pool, ask for a room with a balcony over it — it's handy for taking the children down. If you're planning a party or meeting, the hotel has large banquet halls, so contact them ahead. On the older building, set expectations that this is a veteran resort, traded off against space and value. And because the location is outside the old town, drive yourself or keep a ride-hailing app ready for getting in to see the monkeys and old temples.
