Good location.

Overall, property conditions were rather dated and in need of renovation. However, its location by the river is a plus.

Wedding - Kanchanaburi 2024

It was a lovely stay. There was a lot of noise each night which was a bit challenging for sleep but it was happy sounds - weddings and parties. The people were lively and the views beautiful.

The staffs were so friendly and helpful, especially Ms. Name, Khun Chot and Khun Gib were very informative, and went out of their ways trying to make us feel more comfortable while staying at the hotel. We are very impressed with their small but well run hotel. We stayed at a top floor and view is much better. We love it and will come back any time.

Very friendly and helpful staff in reception and restaurant. Clean room with very soft and comfortable bed. Good bathroom and shower. Breakfast is a bargain, and the cooked options looked good, although I’d have liked more fresh fruit and less bitter coffee. Pool water was clean but the area around was a bit tatty and in need of renovation.

Great little well maintained hotel Close to bridge

Great very good room. . Gardens kept nice so Beautiful area to look over to see the river that flows past. Staff was very pleasant & helpfull especially chot as because i got there very early he was managing the front desk reception but took time out to get my room made up 1st after previous occupants left 12.00 midday. Food in the Devonport cafe was good. Brilliant vibe that also has entertainment on some evenings. Convenience to main street where there a few pubs, but even better if you wanting to see the bridge.

Looks great from a distance, but generally very tired all round for the rate you pay, disappointing, tiles missing in the pool, rotting timbers round the edge. Only 3 sun loungers. Rooms very basic no bed side tables. Breakfast was not great had to choose cooked option on arrival after a long journey, buffet had no covers and had flies all over. Plus side was I found the bed comfortable, but my partner found it too soft.

Accomodatie op zich wel schoon en mooi gelege. maar erg veel mieren ( 3e verdieping!!) Uitleg betreffende ontbijt onduidelijk wat misverstanden gaf. Ze probeerden dat goed te maken door n voucher te geven met korting op n paar drankjes, waar je weinig mee op schiet als je maar een nacht blijft en je toch weer eerst geld moet uitgeven om.aan je zogenaamde korting te komen

Small, very basic rooms

Lovely balcony overlooking the river but that's about it. The room was very small with no furnishings other than a shelf. The paint was peeling off the floor and would stick to the soles of our feet. No hot water in the shower either. I would class this as a budget hotel.
