United KingdomSome very pleasant staff location could really not have been better for me And a beautiful sunrise in morning to wake up too. Loved it will come back again
United KingdomStayed in the Deluxe room, done out very well. My only gripes would be if they could bolt the in room safes securely to the walls. I don't see any reason wall wise why they are unable to do this. A couple of mornings at 06:30/7 am they were doing the bottles from the day before. It was a little noisy and it did wake me up. Food and drinks were really good value for money = 80 baht for a large bottle of Singha!!! Great location, 2 min walk to the main strip of "downtown Kanchanaburi"... 😊
