  Disappointing

  We had booked for 3 days in Kanchanaburi to do the usual attractions and had booked a raft room here. It us a 10 minute ride away from centre of town and each way will cost 150 to 200 baht Tuk Tuk ride so you should factor this in. The site is large and mostly quite peaceful however the accommodation is very run down and it need of maintenance. The bed linen was shabby, the bathroom had mould round the bottom edge, the toilet empties straight in to the river. The air con dripped water every morning until a large pool formed. There is a fridge in the room but no safety deposit box or tea making facilities. The staff are helpful although their English language was not great. Breakfast was mediocre.

  River Rooms Ok, all else very "tired"!

  Like an old glamorous Hollywood actor, this place has definitely seen better days and times. The gardens and river location are good,but it is rather isolated from Kanchanaburi centre so it's only convenient if you have transport,otherwise it's 200baht songthiew trip each way. Very quiet place.The pool is suitable for kids and adults and is clean. There is a small playground area and a nice tree swing. Staff are a bit aloof, even to Thai speakers.If they ask to pay in advance(before we even saw the room in our case),politely refuse. As usual the lower level staff (cleaners, baggage carriers maids,gardeners) are gracious and friendly so tip them well! Riverside rooms (floating) are ok and are the best choice here. 1500 baht per night for twin beds,400 baht for each extra mattress. Beds ok, and linen clean. Bathroom cramped and dated but has hot water.Avoid all other rooms as the 800 baht bungalows are old and mouldy and located well back from the river, no view at all, not even of garden or pool, so not much point in staying there if you are there for a river relaxation experience. Poolside rooms ok, more new than bungalows and definitely better views-they are close in price to river rooms and I would definitely spend extra to be on the river. Restaurant serves good food at lunch and dinner, varied Thai menu . Breakfast buffet included in room prices has usual Thai options plus toast, eggs and coffee. Three star resort.

  Never Go There!!

  Me and my fam went there wanting to spend the night, but we were treated very badly by staff. They were very rude and had no manners towards guests. The hotel is old and not as nice as it looks in the photos. If you are looking for a good place to relax while you are on your holiday i would find a better place.

  Budget hotel in amazing location

  To start let's make it clear this is NOT a five star hotel so do not expect that level of accommodation and then complain about room facilities etc. If you want 5 star pay 5 star prices. This is a mid budget, reasonably clean, with more than I expected for the price paid. The raft rooms are timber built and floats on the river but very stable. This gives unique experience with a balcony directly overlooking the river with the sounds of birds and frogs instead of bars, clubs and traffic you would get in town. The raft rooms are part of the overall resort which has an immaculate pool, restaurant area and plenty of wide open space, trees and garden. I booked for 2 nights and extended for another 2 but had to then move on. I would have stayed longer and would go back.

  Beautiful Resort!

  Me and my boyfriend were a bit apprehensive to book after reading some of the other reviews but honestly this hotel was incredible! After arriving from Bangkok we were greeted with welcome drinks at reception and shown to our room which was right on the river Kwai, it was unbelievable- just in time for sunset! Albeit the rooms are dated but perfectly clean and the resort is beautiful! Very peaceful by the river and the views were breathtaking. The staff we very helpful in organising taxis and we even got a free breakfast! Amazing trip and a beautiful resort- we even had the pool to ourselves, only wish that we could have stayed for longer.
