“Fantastic place to stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 August 2010
3
people found this review helpful

We had 2 rooms here for one night. My husband and I in one and the kids(8 &11) next door. It was wonderful. The room was nice & clean and the view was amazing. Being right on the river is just awesome. We arrived at about 5.30pm and the kids absolutely loved it and kept asking to stay longer. They sat on their balcony and read/coloured in and my husband and I sat on ours and chatted over beers, We ordered room service which was delicious and well priced. Sitting right on the waters edge listening to the water was so relaxing.

My only complaint would be the beds are a very hard but we found they were everywhere we stayed on our trip. You could here music from a local river boat nearby but not enough to stop you sleeping, just a dull noise in the background.

Really enjoyed it.

“Hidden gem outside of Kanchanaburi”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 April 2010

A great place to stay for a weekend outside of Bangkok. Beautiful decorated raft rooms on the river Khwae. A nice experience to sleep on the river. Best of all it is great value for the room. As far is I know the only floating raft hotel in this area with full facilities, rooms have aircon, electricity, hot water and free wifi. They have a very original swimming pool inside the river, a unique idea not seen elsewhere. Staff is very helpful and service minded. The food is good quality for a reasonable price. Only downside is that Thai people like to turn the radio on in the restaurant upstairs, Asians somehow like noise. When it is quiet it is a great place to have a dinner and drink in the evening and enjoy the great sounds of the jungle.

“A Unique 'Boutique' Experience on the River”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 December 2009
3
people found this review helpful

This is a very well designed and maintained property with all amenities - one of the best 'smaller' resorts we viewed in Kanchanaburi. The rooms are very spacious and airy with all modern amenities (excluding TV, to minimize noise). The best feature is a terrace in front of the room to laze the day away by the fast flowing Kwae river. Across the other side is a bamboo forest.

The 2-storey reception area and restaurant is beautifully designed with nice views.

The most unique feature is the floating 'swimming pool'.

Staff are very friendly and helpful. Wifi is included!

Location is in Saiyoke just 2km from the highway; approximately 40 minutes drive to the stunning Erawan Waterfall NP (avoid weekends if possible).

One area of improvement could be the food / breakfast. A little on the pricey side by Thai standards and just average taste.
