An enjoyable experience overall. The riverside location on the River Kwai is fantastic, offering the unique opportunity to swim in the river, with life vests available for safety. Rooms were very spacious and luxurious. Breakfast has a nice assortment of fresh fruits and eggs along with some hot dishes, but the options are quite basic and you’re not spoiled for choice. The dinner buffet is decent but lacks variety, could especially use healthier options. There was the option of 'a la carte' which we didn't opt for as the buffet was included during our stay. Some intriguing sites worth visiting during your stay are the Erawan National Park, the floating market at Damnoen Saduak, and the remarkable experience of watching trains pass through the bustling Mae Klong train market. Don't forget to bring your swim suit.

Chose this hotel due to its unique location. Rooms floating on river were fantastic. Travel by boat to reach the hotel. Unique experience down river Kwai. Staff were willing and efficient as well as friendly. Thai food was lovely but I had dodgy stomach second on the second night so ordered steak. Without going into detail, we had a number of issues but they resolved satisfactorily. Recommend.

Stunning location, wonderful food and a warm welcome from the staff. The room felt very luxurious and comfortable. Jumping in the Kwai and floating on the current was great fun.
