Stayed Two nights from 21/09/22 to 23/09/22 Located within close proximity to the ruins of Ayutthaya, this is a great place to stay if you are on a budget. I stayed in room 14 which was a double room access from the side of the main building. It was a fairly nice room for the price however there was no safe or fridge. The double bed was also only a mattress on the floor so there was that risk of bugs and ants making their way on to the bed itself. The gardens are a nice place to sit and have a drink however you will need to stop by a shop to pick something up as there is no bar or drinks fridge. Overall it is a nice budget place to stay. if you like luxury, it probably isn't for you however if you want something a little different, which is cheap, clean and well kept, I would highly recommend.
Behind the wall there is a hidden oasis. This is a perfect hotel with amazing architecture and the best outlook. Room 4 and 6 have a great view over the river to the temple. The bar upstairs is very relaxing and great selection of cocktails. The cheesecake is so special. Breakfast or diner on the terrace just watching the river and the world go by is very relaxing. I love the little lounge nook with the pillows, just ideal for reading or surfing or snoozing. Staff service was perfect. I will be back.
Quite a decent place. Older style hotel. Room fine, good river view too. Bed comfortable. Do not expect to have a refreshing shower unless you are under 150cm as it is fixed to the wall and made for small people. Anyone taller and bending down the only option, very poor really. Pool was quite good but cold as it gets no sun until much later in the afternoon. Refreshing though. Various on-site restaurants. Bar near lobby area, prices way too much I noticed. Breakfast was quite good although the staff were not friendly, seemed disinterested and some often seen larking about maybe as it was not too busy when we went. 5 minutes walking distance to train station where there are Tuk Tuks and a few eating places as well as the usual street food. 7-11 too. Train to or from BKK is worth the experience (but takes a while to go 70km) and 3rd class trip costs 15 THB...wtaf! The boat river crossing is closed at the moment as the river is too high. Getting across the river needs to be by Tuk Tuk or taxi really. Normally at least one Tuk Tuk outside the hotel too. You know the form, must haggle them down. We used Grab a lot and got where we wanted to go. Probably can walk to some of the historic sites but probably not advised and Grab is cheap and has AC so is the way to go. There is Soi Farang and Grand Street for a livelier atmosphere with more bars and restaurants, again a cheap taxi ride away. Overall not a bad place and decent location for a reasonable and not too expensive a price.
Stay period 31/1/23-1/1/24, 1 night-stay at newly-opened hotel CHECK-IN. PROCESS As being one of top hotel chains, without delay I have pin-pointed this hotel to celebrate happy moment with my family because centara chain is thailand ‘s one of best qualified hotel. On my check-in process ( at 14.00), I have been told that my 2-booked rooms are not ready to stay so I went outside for city tour until 17.00. What happened when I came back, I had still to wait for room cleaning, but I give pressure to receptionist to find one room first for my mom to relax then I got one room. Until 18.15 I come back again to receptionist to ask for another room, you know what answer I got is that the receptionist STII. DO. NOT. KNOW. WHEN. I. CAN. GET ANOTHER ROOM. BY now as to hotel like centara chain that has managed a lot of hotels nationwide, such a situation can be handled and solved easily in more professional skill. So I phoned to hotel and talked to front office manager and informed of my story, the manager just say same. SORRY, but I do not want this word , I need the manager to clear my long-story problem, so the manager ask for 5 minutes to look into my problem. After that I have finally got room at 18.45. What doubt me a lot, if hotel do not have good management team to serve guest during festival period, why you open hotel in this period. Hotel should know well that new year is yearly big festival so you should have well-organized management with skillful staffs, not staffs that can say only S O R R Y, but cannot do anything like answering machines. What make me big disappointed is that I have never wait for one room for so so long time like this time, it should not ever happen to over-standard hotel chain like. CENTARA. Who ‘s thinking to stay at this hotel during big festival, SHOULD. THINK. TWICE. BEFORE. BOOKING. BREAKFAST Buffet line in morning is big, not variety, just say easy breakfast with so so taste
訪訪客Really special experience staying on the river in Ayutthaya. Lovely room looking down on the river. Beautiful teak design - obviously a little rustic and not best sound insulation but this is part of the charm. We had breakfast right beside our room and the river. Very nice breakfast lovingly prepared. Free bike hire which was awesome and bike riding is very nice - you can do a route which is 90% without cars around the historic monuments. We went on a boat tour right from the hotel which took us to see 3 historic sights. Unbelievable good value. Only down side was it pretty much abandoned us at river restaurant without explanation which although lovely was a shame it hadn’t been communicated. Overall though would highly recommend.
訪訪客I can't say enough good about this place. The village is made up of traditional Thai homes, which are the rooms you stay in. The grounds are impeccably kept, and are absolutely beautiful. The staff are also very friendly and helpful. Although too far to walk to, Ayuthaya and the temple ruins are a quick 10-15 minute drive away. Everything to see is very historic and a really great time to check it all out. I will definitely be back for another stay!
訪訪客This experience was something else! Beautiful place, nice van, has a/c inside. Atmosphere is amazing.
June, the owner, is incredibly hospitable and nice. For example, she suggested to take me to the nearest 7/11 by her husband bike as I was a solo woman traveller. I decided to stay there even longer, thank you!
Ps. Be aware of mosquitoes, there are many because of the closeness to the river
