U-Sabai Villa — A Brand-New White Villa Guests Rate 9.7 out of 10
Finding a genuinely good place to stay in Yasothon town is harder than it sounds. It's a small province with few options, and most of them are older hotels. So when U-Sabai Villa opened in 2024, it became a name reviewers picked up on fast — a white villa with arched windows and a grey tile roof that looks more like a café than a roadside guesthouse. It has just 8 rooms, run by the owners themselves, and a 9.7 score from 34 Trip.com reviews, which is unusually high for a new property in a small province.
The first thing guests mention is the building itself. U-Sabai Villa is a low one-to-two-storey villa painted entirely white, with arched windows, a grey clay-tile roof, and a lattice breeze-block screen with greenery out front. The look sits somewhere between Mediterranean and clean modern — not luxury-resort territory, but new, spotless and very photogenic. In a town where most buildings are shophouses or older hotels, it stands out the moment you drive past.
There are 4 room types, all around 21-22 sqm — VIP Single, Standard with a 6-foot bed, Twin, and VIP Twin. Inside, the rooms pair deep green walls with mustard accents, a soft bed, a small sofa, a desk, air conditioning, a Smart TV, a kettle and a mini-fridge, and some come with a private balcony. Reviewers consistently say the rooms feel larger than the price suggests, the beds are comfortable, and everything still looks brand new — which makes sense given it has only been open a year.
What pushed the score so high is cleanliness and the owners' care. Cleanliness scores 9.7 and service 9.6 on Trip.com. Because the owners live on-site and run it themselves, it feels more like a home than a hotel — you actually get a conversation at check-in and tips on where to eat in town. Several reviews use phrases like "quiet, warm, like staying at a relative's house," which is exactly the thing a chain hotel can't replicate.
One guest summed it up: "New, very clean, lovely owners, and breakfast waiting in the morning — that's a rare find in Yasothon town."
Breakfast is already included in the room rate, served Asian-style and made to order between 7:00 and 10:00 am. It's a simple, freshly cooked meal rather than a big buffet, but guests rate it as filling and home-cooked. There's free Wi-Fi and free on-site parking, which matters a lot here because most people reach Yasothon by car. That makes the villa a natural one-night stop on an Isan road trip.
The location is on Soi Chaeng Sanit 1 in Nai Mueang, not far from the centre of town. It's a 5-minute drive to the Chi River public park and Phaya Thaen, 5-6 minutes to Wat Mahathat (the old temple at the centre of the old town) and the central mosque, with the town market and restaurants all a short drive away. Worth saying up front: this isn't a walk-everywhere town like a big city — you'll want a car here, but once you have one, everything is genuinely close.
The limitations to know before booking: this is a small B&B with no swimming pool, no on-site restaurant, and no airport shuttle. The nearest airport is Roi Et, about 52 km away (roughly an hour's drive). Parking is free but limited to the villa's footprint, so at full occupancy you may end up parking along the lane. And with only 8 rooms, it fills up fast on long weekends and during the Bun Bang Fai rocket festival in May, so book ahead.
The bottom line: U-Sabai Villa suits road-trippers who want a clean, new, affordable night in Yasothon town. Rooms start at just ฿690/night including breakfast, which is excellent value for what you get. If you're expecting a pool or full big-hotel amenities, this isn't it. But if you want a quiet place with attentive owners in a town where good options are thin on the ground — this is the first name to check.

- 💡If you need full facilities — there's no pool, no on-site restaurant, and no airport shuttle → if a pool is essential, look at resort-style stays outside the town centre instead
- 💡If you're visiting during the Bun Bang Fai rocket festival (May) — with only 8 rooms during the town's peak week → book at least 4-6 weeks ahead, because the good in-town stays sell out quickly
