Araya Resort Khong Chiam Riverside
Compare prices
Araya Resort Khong Chiam Riverside sits along the Mun River in Khong Chiam, a small district town in Ubon Ratchathani province known for being near the confluence of the Mun and Mekong rivers — a scenic natural landmark referred to locally as the "Two-Colour River." The resort's riverside setting gives it a geographic advantage for travellers exploring this quiet corner of northeastern Thailand. Guests can expect a relaxed, low-key atmosphere typical of provincial riverside accommodation in the region. The property caters to travellers seeking a base from which to explore nearby attractions such as Pha Taem National Park, its prehistoric cliff paintings, and the scenic Mekong riverside. With a rating sitting in the mid-range, the resort suits travellers with modest expectations who prioritise location and river access over luxury amenities. Good to know: Khong Chiam is best visited between November and February when the dry season brings cooler temperatures and clearer views of the two-coloured river. As no website is currently listed, travellers are advised to contact the resort directly or book through a third-party accommodation platform to confirm availability and current pricing before making the trip, as this part of Ubon Ratchathani sees limited tourism infrastructure compared to larger Thai destinations.
