The setting with grounds flowing down to the river is idyllic. The hotel itself is quite grand at first blush, but lack of maintenance and limited housekeeping soon becomes noticeable. Our room was very spacious with a balcony overlooking the pool and the river. Lack of a screen door meant you had to run the AC and keep the door closed to keep out mosquitos. Annoyingly out room was half a step up from the hallway and the large bathroom was half a step down. A bit of a tripping hazard and not suitable for a wheelchair user or any one with any mobility limitations. 2 beds had been pushed together to create a double but that meant the headboards did not line up with the bed or the single bed side table. Beds were comfortable, AC and internet worked fine. The whole place was passably clean but plenty of dust and insect casing were present on higher walls and surfaces. Breakfast was ok not great. Coffee was a little odd. Beautiful gardens but not convenient to town. Neigbouring property throws loud parties so noise could be an issue. Towels were threadbare but sheets were nice. We left housekeeping a tip anyway figuring people had been hard up during Covid. No nearby dining so captive audience situation at dinner as town is hard to get to. The rice barge dining room floating on the river was delightful as was the pool. Quite a lot of contradictory experiences in a single stay but could be splendid - having said that rates were fairly inexpensive.
I had made booking via Agoda and the hotel staff call to me for re-confirmed booking. I asked them for room which is located on high floor. But staff denied my request due to facing to heavy check-in on that day. But the way to answer is I’did not made direct booking with hotel. I had made via travel agent that not nice ways to reply to hotel clients. I was arriving by late noon and checking-in process was smooth, we have room assigned on 1st floor which is not same Agoda picture display while making reservation. No any drinking water provided as we paid 1600 baht. TV signal was not stable. I tried to forget everything about what staff did replied me prior my arrival. To make my stay smooth and I don’t want to thinking about anything during my leisure. In the morning, As staff mention that the hotel mentioned facing to groups check-in. Those people are gathering at the terrace and playing game next to my room. Those people make very noisy and don’t care other’s people who still in bed. Staff should be know how to handle with this situation and be approached them. But no one come around. I have present at reception before noon. Everything was smooth for checkout. I asked staff does the hotel provide drinking water or not ? They said they do provided it. I asked them go to prove it. And no one apologize with sincerely for their mistakes just ignore and return my deposit to me. No one ask me how was my stay is? The hospitality doesn’t mean build up the building to serve to the people but service need to be in the commons.The ways to answer that you are not made direct book with us. but via travel agent we could not assign any room as per your requested. I would not recommend this Hotel for other if they can find same rates and same ambient. Not valued for your money. The ways to answer is not professional.
Good experience by the river. Restaurant food is awesome. The room is a bit dark though but the rooftop bench is great. The service of the staffs is great, friendly and very helpful. Just need better choice air freshener or fragrance and maybe mosquitoes repellant for outdoor
The attractions that we are impressed with and have been able to experience the atmosphere. Is Mida Hotel is a luxury beach hotel available. The interior of the room is decorated in a simple modern style that looks comfortable and the bathroom is clean and has all the amenities. There is a pool to play. And there are food arranged in a buffet style. There are both local food to food in a 5 star hotel I had the opportunity to travel because my sister was an employee in Mida Company. Me and my family are very impressed with that place. Good service, good conversation and natural Phil.
訪訪客用戶我最近住在Hop Inn Kanchanaburi,它超出了我的所有期望!從我入住的那一刻起,我就受到了熱情的款待和高效的服務。工作人員非常友好,隨時準備好幫助解決任何需求或問題。
Hop Inn飯店的客房乾淨、現代且設計周到。我的房間一塵不染,配備了所有必需品,包括舒適的床、寬敞的浴室和可靠的無線網路。我還很欣賞迷你冰箱和充足的儲存空間等實用設施。
就地點而言,Hop Inn Kanchanaburi 非常棒。飯店位置便利,靠近桂河大橋和戰爭公墓等主要景點,方便您探索該地區豐富的歷史。附近還有很多餐飲場所,這是一個很大的優點。
訪訪客用戶We stayed here for four nights. The staff are lovely. The room was clean, the bed enormous, the air conditioning fierce. There was always free bottled water and little nibbles in reception. The location is quiet but close enough to the main drag to facilitate easy access for food, drinks, and the main tourist attractions.
SSupasaintLocated about 7km north west of the town, the staff are all friendly and helpful. I have rented a small motorbike to get me around, a necessity which means I can go where and when I desire, small money so no problem!
Have been to the cemeteries and museums to pay my respect to ALL who suffered during those darkest of days. I have also been to the original wooden bridge constructed by the POW’s and others, it is located in the JEATH museum adjacent to the bridge that is in use these days. Entry cost 50 Baht, and there is so much to see that I took two hours inside, would recommend a morning visit so you can view the many items and read the facts behind them at your leisure.
The museum has been set up by a local man and is most definitely worth visiting. 100% value for money! I mentioned to a Thai man inside that we were so grateful that people around the area did try to ease the suffering of the POWs, risking their own necks by doing so.
My mother was an innocent child at 7 years old, alongside her mother and little sister she waved goodbye to her father, John Francis Egan, he said he was going to work for a while!! After working in Turkey, his ANZAC unit were moved on to Italy, to partake in one of the harder campaigns of the war. His life was taken by a German bullet at Mount Casino, alongside many many others!
Please understand how one can feel. I try my hardest to be non judgmental and tolerant these days. I have not walked in your shoes and do not know your story.
“Footsteps in the sand” comes to mind at this moment. I have PTSD myself, and I knew coming to Kanchanaburi may get emotional, and it has.
Now my mother is 88 years young, and became a great grandma for the second time two weeks ago. Apologies if it got too personal, started as a review of the Phoo Tawan hotel.
Words are insufficient, our gratitude to all who risked their own lives and those that paid the ultimate price.
Life is precious, please enjoy the moment.
Peace, love and joy to all who inhabit this world.
ONE LOVE
訪訪客What a cool place and very peaceful. The staff are absolutely lovely and nothing is a bother. Great menu for lunch and dinners. The pool is clean. Breakfast only had 2 choices so could do with few more. Couldn’t find any English channels but maybe we didn’t understand it, not bothered anyway. Marshmallow and fire every night. Kids loved it! Totally recommend this place.
訪訪客The guest house has a range of rooms from more modern concrete structures to wooden cottages set on wooden piers in a quiet tributary of the River Kwai. We were upgraded to a riverfront cottage, of which there are about four. The others are set slightly back but still have a river view. It’s a budget guest house, (we paid around £20 per night and stayed 3 nights) so don’t expect any frills. Things are a bit worn but it was clean enough and the bed was the comfiest I’ve had in Asia. We used our own mosquito net but even after a lot of recent rain we had no problem with insects. One slightly disconcerting thing was that the shower, and I believe though not certain, that the toilet flushes straight into the river! Despite that there is plenty of wildlife around, lots of birds and one morning we saw a 4 foot monitor lizard swim across the river. It’s very central- 5 mins walk to bars, restaurants, supermarkets etc. in spite of that and the fact that it was a holiday weekend it seemed quiet with lots of spare rooms and we slept very well. We enjoyed our time here and would come again.
