The River Kwai Resotel is located directly on the river. By car, you can get to the hotel via small, narrow and very bad roads, or you can park on the other side of the river and be taken to the hotel by ferry (for a fee). The hotel is picturesquely spread over the hills and you have the impression of living right in the jungle. This can also be felt in the open restaurant or at the pool. The rooms are quite large and comfortable. It is pleasant to spend the evening in them. The bar closes extremely early and there is nothing to do but spend the evening in the room. The breakfast buffet is acceptable, but nothing special. At least there was fresh fruit. The coffee, however, was terrible. The á la carte dinner was of similar quality - OK, but nothing special. I considered it very negative that they wanted to charge us for a damaged, cheap pressed glass for 200 THB when we left.
A remote, quiet & tranquil resort, surrounded by greenery, located along the banks of river kwai. you need to pass through a short 5-10min of dirt road before reaching the resort. resort is clean, and serves nice BBQ & mookata for dinner (a little on pricey side). breakfast is also delicious. good sized rooms & comes with large bathtub. amenities such as towels, shampoo & insect repellent are also provided. 2 storey rooms (slp 4), unfortunately only comes with 1 bathroom. staffs can provide recommendations for sightseeing in the area (via msg) and they are quite responsive. staffs are all friendly & helpful, but eng. comm. is limited.
If you love nature, this is the place for you! However, the hotel needs refurbishment. The villa looks tired and needs freshen up. So, no matter how good the room attendants clean the room, it still looks unclean. And the bonus is they have their own museum!!! The spa house needs an upgrade, the view is beautiful but inside needs renovation, no privacy esp when you do oil massage. Dinner buffet is good but should have different choices on the second night. Staff are helpful though
