    We loved the stunning views from our balcony overlooking the river. The room was better than expected for the price, with a comfortable bed and a convenient mini fridge. The floating hotel experience was unique and peaceful, while still being within walking distance of shops, bars, and restaurants. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area.

    Felt completely at ease during our stay, with nothing to complain about.

    The view from our room was jaw-dropping, overlooking the river. The location was super convenient, just a few minutes from the main street and within walking distance to the night market. Despite being close to tourist attractions, it was surprisingly quiet. The staff were shining bright with their friendly demeanor. The rooms were well-decorated and clean, with attention to detail that just blew us away. The wifi connection was excellent, perfect for staying connected. We also enjoyed the option to order breakfast and found the nearby restaurant to have amazing meals at affordable prices.

    Good wifi connection and strong wifi in the room. Lovely decorated rooms that were well looked after.- Outstanding view of the river from the room.- Nice location, only a 5-minute walk to the backpacker strip.- Close proximity to tourist attractions.

    Stray dogs near the accommodation can be quite scary at night when walking home. The fridge turns off when you lock the door, resulting in no cold water to drink upon return.

    The location was unreal - right on the river, dude! We saw wild monitor lizards swim by while chilling on our balcony. And the sunsets, bro, they were straight out of a postcard. Plus, it was close to the main tourist area, so we could easily hit up all the cool spots in Kanchanaburi.

    The only thing we wished for was a happening party scene at the raft. It was peaceful and all, but being teenagers, we were craving some late-night fun.

    Outstanding river view from my room, lovely decoration, good wifi, and a perfect location - just a short walk to the backpacker strip and tourist attractions.

    Scary late-night encounters with barking stray dogs - perfect for adventure lovers like me!

    One thing I really liked about this hotel was the beautiful view of the river and mountains. It was so peaceful sitting on the veranda and taking in the natural beauty. The hotel also had a lovely open deck where I could relax and enjoy the surroundings. Furthermore, the accessibility for senior people was quite good, with easy access to the main areas of the hotel and manageable stairs.

    The children working there could have been a bit more friendly and accommodating. It would have made my vacation as a senior woman even better if they had been more welcoming and helpful.

    Title: Perfect Family Getaway

    For dads, it would be great if the fridge in the room didn't turn off every time the key was removed from the slot. It made it difficult to keep things chilled, especially when we were out all day.

    Great view of river and mountains. Enjoyed being on the water. All facilities available. Comfy beds. Inexpensive. Loved the location, close to transport and attractions. Hired a taxi for sightseeing. Nearby guesthouse with amazing meals at cheap prices. Conveniently located near main street and night market. Shiny and friendly staff. Superior balcony rooms with river views. Comfortable beds and hot water shower. Glorious sunsets and rises.

    Nothing to mention.

    I chose this hotel for my business trip because it offers great facilities and services for both business travelers and tourists. The room was clean and comfortable, with strong WiFi and a convenient location near the main street and night market.

    The only thing I missed for my work was a business center or a dedicated workspace in the hotel.

    A hidden gem with stunning river views. The small private veranda allowed us to enjoy beautiful sunsets. The room was clean and comfortable, with strong WiFi and a fridge. Great location within walking distance of bars and tourist sites. Despite a few minor inconveniences, the overall experience was enjoyable. I would recommend this hotel for those seeking an authentic Kanchanaburi experience.

    The decor of the hotel was enchanting, reminiscent of a traditional Thai riverside dwelling. The traditional art and furnishings added a touch of elegance, making it a delightful place to relax and unwind. The general areas were well-maintained, creating a peaceful atmosphere for senior guests. The hotel's accessibility for older individuals was commendable, with easy access to common areas and comfortable seating options provided throughout.

    The hotel staff could have been more attentive and considerate towards the needs of senior guests. It would have been wonderful if there were additional amenities or services specifically tailored to enhance the vacation experience for older individuals.

    The value for money at this hotel was excellent - comfortable beds, hot showers, and beautiful river views made for a memorable stay. The location was perfect, being close to the main street and night market but away from noisy bars. The staff were friendly and helpful, assisting with day trips and taxis.

    The only thing that could have made breakfast better was having a wider variety of choices.
