The rooms are ok but the place is in desperate need of some renovations. Still miles better than the ghastly Pathurat hotel nearby with its overpriced rooms and mafiaoso hanging around in the corridors. I’ve had mixed stays at the Nevada since 2001.

I know the family that run it. They are rice millers not hotel managers. One travel book "Lonely Planet' said it is steadily going on the road to ruin. I agree. The whole Nevada comples is a disgrace to the city. The best hotel in town is the Tohsaeng. Clean and quiet. Laithong has good food but the rooms are not clean. Ubon Buri Resort has terrible food-also not clean.<br/>These are my ideas but after 14 years of living in Ubon I think Ubon is in need of more decent clean 3 star hotels. I rate The Ratchathani as a good 2 star hotel. I first stayed there in 1974 and the good standard has never slipped.<br/><br/>Michael Hare I’m afraid I think that the Nevada Grand is hopeless – dirty, smelly, flies and poor management.

They sometimes have English language films. At the moment there are none at Major Cineplex (SK) or Nevada Entertainment complex. The last movies here in English were the last Harry Potter movie and Die Hard 4.0. <br/><br/>There is no schedule for English language movies, it seems to be random.

The last time I was there I was looking for one at the SK Mall but they didn't have any. I am hoping to see a movie there when I come in January.<br/><br/> What's playing now in English?<br/><br/>Thanks<br/>Mike Do they still have English language sound tracks in Ubon?
