Rim Moon River Side Resort Kong Chiam
Compare prices
Situated in the scenic town of Khong Chiam in Ubon Ratchathani province, this riverside resort makes a comfortable base for exploring one of northeastern Thailand's most distinctive natural attractions — the confluence of the Mekong and Mun rivers, where the meeting of the two waterways creates a striking two-tone effect that draws visitors from across the country. The resort's riverside setting means guests are well-positioned to take in the surrounding landscape and local atmosphere. Guests can expect a relaxed, nature-oriented stay suited to travellers who prefer quieter, off-the-beaten-path destinations over busy tourist centres. The resort operates daily from 08:00 to 22:00, with slightly reduced hours on Tuesdays (closing at 17:00), so those planning late arrivals on that day should plan accordingly. Khong Chiam itself is a small, unhurried town best explored on foot or by bicycle, with the Two-Colour River viewpoint, Pha Taem National Park, and ancient cliff paintings all within reasonable reach. The area tends to be most pleasant during the cool season between November and February, when temperatures are comfortable for outdoor exploration. Travellers visiting from further afield are advised to arrange transport in advance, as the town is not directly served by major public transit links. A stay here suits those looking to slow down and experience the quieter side of Isaan.
