Overview

The Space is unusual among Khon Kaen's coworking options in being an officially managed part of Khon Kaen University itself -- listed directly on the university's own Asset Management Center website (asset.kku.ac.th) as a Co-Working Space tenant on the 2nd floor of the Rong Chai food and service centre. That official university listing, alongside The Space's own Facebook page, confirms its contact number (081-544-0347), open-daily status and a Japanese-minimalist, cafe-like interior with free wifi, power outlets and air-conditioning. Seating is priced by the hour rather than a flat day-pass rate, and hours have varied over time (10:00-22:00 in the most recent standard schedule, extended overnight during KKU final-exam periods) -- confirm current hours before visiting, since a university-managed space follows the academic calendar more closely than a standalone business.

Hourly-rate seatingFree wifiPower outletsAir-conditioningCafe-style minimalist interiorMeeting room

The interior is described in KKU's own listing as Japanese-minimalist and cafe-like, with varied seating zones, free wifi and power outlets throughout. Seating is billed by the hour (roughly THB 19 for the first hour, rising modestly for longer stays per KKU's own posted rates), unusually granular pricing compared with most coworking spaces' day-pass or monthly-only models.

Getting there

The Space is on the 2nd floor of the Rong Chai food and service centre inside the Khon Kaen University campus -- easiest reached if you are already based near KKU, several kilometres from the city-centre Na Muang Road area where ESC Coworking Space is located. As a campus facility, hours can shift around university holidays and exam periods.

The most recent standard schedule per KKU's own listing is 10:00 to 22:00 daily, though the university has posted temporary extended hours (09:00-02:00) during final-exam periods in the past. Confirm current hours directly via The Space's Facebook page or KKU's Asset Management Center site, since a campus facility follows the academic calendar rather than fixed business hours.
