Thanasiri Hotel & Resort — a town hotel with a pool in central Sa Kaeo, big rooms by the station
If you want a place in central Sa Kaeo with a pool to cool off in, spacious rooms, and an easy walk to the train station and market, Thanasiri Hotel & Resort is a name self-drivers and train travellers come back to · It sits on Thetsaban 19 Road, about 200 m from Sa Kaeo railway station and roughly a 10-minute walk to the town centre · Rooms are spacious, some with a small kitchenette and fridge, and there's an outdoor pool, free parking, free Wi-Fi and a 24-hour front desk · Rooms start from around ฿750/night, an easy way to get both a pool and a central location at a price that stays grounded.
Thanasiri Hotel & Resort sits at 144/2 Thetsaban 19 Road in Mueang Sa Kaeo district — a town hotel only about 200 m from Sa Kaeo railway station and a roughly 10-minute walk from the town centre · That location makes it an easy overnight stop for both self-drivers and people arriving by train, close to the market and the Chao Por Sa Kaeo shrine, with food within walking distance in the evening.
What guests mention most is that the rooms are big and clean, and the hotel has a swimming pool — an advantage over many in-town options in Sa Kaeo that have no pool at all · Several reviews say the rooms are larger than expected, the beds are comfortable, and you get air-conditioning, a fridge, satellite TV, and in some rooms a small kitchenette with a microwave, which suits longer stays or anyone who wants to heat up their own food · Wi-Fi is in every room and the overall feel is quiet, with good sleep.
"Big, clean room, central location near the train station and market, staff who smiled a lot, and we slept very well — good value for an overnight stop in Sa Kaeo town."
Another thing guests praise is that most of the staff are friendly and smiley, especially the breakfast team · There's an on-site restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, plus room service, a coffee shop, and a karaoke/game room to unwind · For self-drivers there is free parking on site and a 24-hour front desk, handy for late arrivals into town.
To be honest about the weak points — breakfast is fairly basic · some reviews note only a couple of options and a few items served cold, not the big buffet some people expect · The recurring niggles are noisy air-conditioning in some rooms that cycles on and off and can interrupt sleep, a few rooms being on the dark side with only a small window, and Wi-Fi that can be patchy at times · There are also reviews mentioning unexpected charges at checkout (such as for towels) and reception staff who weren't always welcoming, so it's worth confirming the details up front.
Bottom line: Thanasiri Hotel & Resort suits anyone who wants a central Sa Kaeo hotel with a pool, big rooms, and an easy walk to the train station and market at a grounded price — good for an overnight stop on the way to Aranyaprathet and the Rong Kluea border market, or for errands in town · An overall score around 8.0 from real reviews reflects exactly that — spacious rooms, a pool, a good location, but a basic breakfast and service that can be uneven · Set expectations accordingly, confirm any charges in advance, and most people get a comfortable night here.
