              Awesome budget location”

              If you're looking for a high-end place, this isn't that. But the location on the river is awesome, the rooms are clean and comfortable, and the people are friendly. The wi-fi worked great. Two things to know: 1. No power outlets in the room. There are outlets in the common area, so either be prepared to leave your electronics there to charge, or bring a battery to charge there so you can bring it back to your room. 2. The rooms are mosquito-proof, but the common area is open, and there are some mosquitos, so bring repellent with you if you plan to hang out. The view of the river was so beautiful! And the night market was a short walk away.

              Cheap and cheerful stay on a raft house in a great location”

              Really enjoyed our stay at the raft house. The owners were lovely, and really helpful whenever we had any questions. The bedroom and bathroom was very basic but the beds were comfy - and for the price, it’s a bargain! The raft house is on a secluded part of the river so we enjoyed chilling out and enjoying the views. And you’re a short walk to the bus station, skywalk etc. Would recommend!

              Great Stay”

              I've stayed here twice in the past few years and it's a great place with friendly owners, lots of nice pets (although they will bark at you when you first arrive, they're completely harmless). It's on a raft, so you'll notice that at times, but it's on a great spot on the river.

              Unique stay in Kanchanaburi”

              Together with a friend we had an amazing stay in this guesthouse. Normally we had booked for only one night (budget room), but as soon as we arrived we knew we wanted to stay longer! The views are stunning, the location is perfect and the vibe is peaceful. The shared showers and toilets are okay, it was actually quite some experiencing (you should see it for yourself!).

              Comfort is relative, our bed was hard and the collective shower is really basic, no hot water, and quite dirty Howerver it's the cheapest and eating outside with this view is worth it

              Fabulous staff”

              As the title of my review says, the staff are great. Knowledgeable of the local area, easy to deal with and very welcoming. I found them incredibly helpful. The owner has fluent English which makes thing easier as well. There are also 4 lovely dogs that greet you every time you arrive home. They always take up 10 minutes of my time when I get back. I was a little put out that the room has no warm water and there are no plug points in the room so charging your items is resigned to leaving them in the common area, although the owner had a solution for this and had an extension cord which ran all the way to my room through the window. The price is good and compared to other options and is the closest riverside accommodation to the bus station. I want to thank the owner for all of his help during my stay.

              I stayed in the aircon room with a river view. The scenery is stunning when compared to the cost of a room. Nita Raft House is very close to the city and bus station (only 10 minutes walk). It might be a little far from other tourist attraction but if you want to chill out with an inexpensive price. You will love this place

              Lovely place very unique. Great price. Is slightly far from town but we hired a bike so was okay. No plug sockets in room would have been a problem but we had a power bank and knew about it in advance. Would recommend for price and piece and quiet.

              river views, food, the owners

              I loved my stay at Nita Raft House. Waking up on the river, watching the sun light up the water and the nearby mountains. Beautiful. The food was excellent - both of the owners are excellent cooks. Every meal is like eating at your parents' house - if your parents were Thai. Do, however, ask for spicy if you like spicy, otherwise they may assume you don't. There are a couple things to be aware of: 1) the raft house is close to the bus station and the night market.. It's a bit of a trek to the backpacker area where the bars are located, but on the other hand, during the day, it's like a world apart. 2) floating karaoke bars blast music along the river until past midnight and may interfere with your sleep. 3) the wifi signal is fantastic but there are no outlets in the rooms. you have to charge your camera, phone, etc in the common area. when asked, the owner said he removed them because some guests were cooking in the rooms. 4) you have to buy your own toilet paper. the owner sells it at 10 baht/roll. (I don't even want to think of what guests have done with toilet paper in the past to merit the imposition of this policy.) Overall, aside from the blaring music on the river at night, staying at Nita was very peaceful and a great place to get away from it all.

              Fantastic”

              About a 27 min walk from the Kanchanaburi railway station. I had the river view fan room with private bathroom and shower. I would say bring sound proof headphones if the sound of nature does get a bit loud, but otherwise, I had an amazing night of sleep.. It gets a bit chilly at night, but they provide blankets. There's a bicycle rental place not far, and everything is within biking distance or walking distance. The food is all home made and cooked fresh on the spot, HUGE selection of food and everything I ordered was delicious. The family/staff was amazing and so nice. I wish I was able to have stayed a few more nights, Kanchanaburi and Nita Raft House was a wonderful experience.
