Sometimes you get what you pay for. . . Quiet, cheap with comfortable bed. Cramped shower/toilet. Raft floating on the river Kwai. Close to nightlife & restaurants, far enough for quiet sleep.

A tale of two hotels.....

So, after having such nice welcomes.everywhere I've ever been in Thailand, here was a bit of a shock. There is no real welcome and interaction comes across at best nonplussed, at worst rude. But if you come prepared for that and you have a room on the raft, they are lovely and are good value for the price. Once you get over the lack of interaction with anyone.... It's great! The view from the river are really lovely to wake up to.

Very basic accommodation

This floating hotel is okay if you are wanting the most basic of accommodations. If you are wanting something a bit more refined, keep looking. The bathroom was filled with mosquitoes that were entering through a hole on the floor that was drilled to drain shower water. The room had a lot of noise from adjacent rooms. If you don’t speak Thai, you will find communication with the staff difficult. We mostly dealt with a young boy that was camped out on the couch in the “lobby”. My wife speaks Thai, so we managed.

Horrble FUIR

Dans l annonce le titre c est : Chambre Supérieure. Non mais vous rigoler qui controle les hotels chez Hotels.com. c est du foutage de gueule.... Chambre sale,la porte s ouvre qu'a moitié, la porte fenetre aussi, crasse sur la porte fenêtre,trou dans le plancher sur la terrasse, pommeau de douche qui fuit,apres un douche eau dans la chambre.Pour le personnels nous avons été reçu par un jeune homme qui n'a pas lâché son téléphone une seule fois.... et il dort dans la reception sur un banc enfin reception c est vite dit.!! A l exterieur hamats d ordures et detritus contre l hotel.refrigerateur sale et chaud a notre arrivée, un simple pled en guise de drap. Je termine mes vacances et vous demaderai un dédommagement. J ai en plus utilisé une nuit bonus pour ce taudis. Nous avions réservé une chambre a Ayutthaya dans les meme prix sur agoda puisque pas possible sur Hotels.com et nous avons mis une note de 10. J ai plusieurs photos mais elles ne passent pas,mais je les garde pour vous par mail. Michel

Great views and location, soft bed.

Our stay for 5 nights was very nice. The room had a balcony which was lovely in the afternoon with no sun and a cool breeze, we sat there with our feet dangling in the water having a beer most afternoons. The bed was very soft and comfortable which is not so common in Thailand. It’s a 5 minute walk to the local bar area and if you want to rent a scooter there are places nearby. We will stay again on our next trip

Good value for budget travellers

Great river view, easy walk to Kanchanaburi station and shops and market. Room looking rather tired, needed a bit of renovation. Overall good value for money. If using this town as a base for Hellfire Pass, staying at Nam Tok would be a better choice.

We have stayed in this hotel twice before and it was newish with friendly staff. This time the staff were very stern faced and no maintenance has been carried out for years. Obviously the location is still perfect but we won't be staying again.

Bad signage and miserable staff but a nice view

This hotel has the worst signage making it incredibly difficult to find the reception area. There is a carpark out front and then a flat roof area. One must climb some stairs and then go down and find a sign to another set of very steep stairs. The staff are miserable, scowling and very unhelpful. I could see they had a huge TV monitor so must have seen us struggling to find them but had not cared enough to come and assist. I had read earlier reviews of people buying the best room and then being put in the less expensive room. So I booked the expensive room. Yep, they gave me a middle room with a view of a very sad looking fish trap rather than at the front where the view is of the river. They had nothing about our reservation, no paperwork, not computer. They had to call someone, their boss I presume. So this all took quite awhile, while we were totally ignored. Not even invited to have a seat or a drink of water. We had booked the best room with a view of the river. I had read previous reviews where even if you do this they give you a lesser room with a terrible view of a bunch of ugly fish traps and pollution. Sure enough that's what they did. I protested and asked for a refund. Back to the phone they went. Finally we were directed to the front room which we had paid for. The room is very basic but ok for the price. The location is ok as there are shops and bars close by.
