Review summary

Powered by OpenAI

The hotel's location is ideal, close to major tourist spots like town center, museums, night market, River Kwai Bridge, and Kanchanaburi War Cemetery. Guests adore the friendly and supportive staff who ensure a pleasant stay. Buffet breakfast is a highlight with an impressive variety.

According to a few guests, the hotel is dated and its condition is subpar, particularly the bathrooms. A few have complained about cleanliness and maintenance, but overall, it may still be a decent place to stay.

    “Very worth it for this price.”

    All the staff are lovely and very polite. We went with family and booked 3 rooms. In one room, the air conditioning wasn't cold, and when we informed the housekeeper, within 5 minutes, a technician came to check and allowed us to move rooms right away, which we really appreciated! The room was super clean, the bed was very comfy, and the sheets, blankets, and towels smelled nice. The swimming pool is large, with separate areas for children and adults. The breakfast was extremely varied; I recommend this place for food lovers. I give it 5 stars without hesitation!

    “Good room, in the city center.”

    Good price, located on the main road, only 1 km from Kanchanaburi train station. Convenient to travel, with a 7-Eleven across from the hotel. The rooms are clean, and the cleaning staff comes every day. The restaurant staff is very nice and provides good service, but the hotel is a bit old. Overall, it is considered good.

    “City of history”

    Located on the main road, 1 kilometer from the city clock tower, it is a maximum of 2 kilometers to walk to the riverside. It is 1 kilometer from the train station. You can easily travel to other districts by songthaew or bus without needing to go to the Kanchanaburi bus station; you can just flag down a ride in front of or across from the hotel. The hotel has a large swimming pool that is twice the size of the Novotel Sukhumvit 4. I really like it! The restaurant is beautiful and spacious and there are conference rooms as well. The rooms do not have a kettle and coffee cups; you have to request them at the front desk. There is only 1 towel provided, while normally there should be 2: a small one and a large one. You also need to do a little exercise.

    “If you're going to Kanchanaburi, you must stay here.”

    Everything is great, clean, and comfortable. The pool is very nice, the bed in the room is soft, and it's quiet with no noise disturbance. There is a wide variety of breakfast options. This is my first time coming, and I'm impressed! If I come to this area again, I will choose to stay at this hotel again.
