"Great location. It's only about 100-200 metres to the River Kwai Bridge, Art gallery & War Museum, and the day market (where they sell Thai snacks, souvenirs, gem jewellery, clothes, food). It's along River Kwai, and buffet breakfast (freshly cooked eggs such as sunny side up or omelette, sausages, toast, salad such as lettuce, cherry tomatoes, sweet corn, egg fried rice, juices, coffee and tea, yogurt) is served at the open dining area that's along the river Kwai. Rooms have fast speed wifi, it's clean with towels, bottled shower foam and shampoo and free 2x mineral water daily. Twin beds is actually 2x super single beds that's joined together, hence looked much bigger. Resort provides tuk tuk to night market (abt 40baht/pax) to the night market (open space temporary stalls selling food, snacks, clothes, souvenirs, etc) that's near the Railway station. Tuk tuk from resort to Kanachanburi bus terminal is 100baht for 2pax. Resort offers day tours to nearby sightseeing (waterfall, elephant rides, tiger temple, death railway, etc), but unable to customise (hence we opted for a taxi to bring us around instead). Staffs were helpful as they immediately sent someone to help when we commented that the toilet flush is chocked. There's a mini swimming pool within the resort premises too. Definitely a much better location then staying at City centre."

"We stayed at the Felix River Kwai Hotel for 12 nights with our 15 year old son. This is a little unusual as most people only stay for one or two nights to just visit the River Kwai bridge and the war cemetery. We had a fantastic time. The hotel was nice and quiet and the resort is built beside the river Kwai so there are beautiful views of the river. The resort stands in enormous grounds with fountains and fish pools. There are also two lovely swimming pools, two restaurants, a games room with a pool table and fitness/sauna. It only takes about 10 minutes to walk to the River Kwai bridge where you can walk into the town. During our stay we combined it with visiting attractions (Erawan Falls, Kayaking, Elephantsworld, Hellfire pass, temples and shopping) on some days and then chilled by the pool on others. The hotel offers transport into the town at the same cost as a local taxi. They also collected us and took us back to the airport at an additional cost. The staff were always helpful and friendly. Our room was a Deluxe River View which was lovely to be able to sit on the verandah in the evening watching the river and the sunset. We had a fantastic holiday and would love to be able to go back again. Although the room did have a musty smell and the furniture and bathroom is a little dated with a little need for 'tlc' it didn't detract from our enjoyment of the holiday. "

"i was staying in the hotel for 2D1N during Oct 2017. The hotel is just newly opened in this year. The hotel is located near to River Kwai Bridge area. If you are travel to kanchanaburi via thai railway, so i advice you to get down from train at River Kwai Bridge Station instead of Kanchanaburi Station (1 station more after Kanchanaburi Station if travel from Bangkok direction) & can be reachable by walking from the train station in about 800meters. The hotel room is very spacious, clean & comfort. For facilities wise, the hotel is equiped with swimming pool, sun tan deck & pool table at roof top. The staffs are friendly & nice to answer our queries."

"we stayed in a family room which was very spacious. it contained a king sized bed & also a oversized single bed. bathroom had both a rain shower & also a bath tub. great luxurious hotel with a huge swimming pool, modern gymnasium, 2 restaurants (one over the river kwai). upon arrival, we were served arrival drinks of lemongrass (made by the hotel) & there was a fruit platter & also 3 macaroons awaiting in the room. there were daily exercise classes available by the pool (eg. stretching, taichi). breakfast was included, not buffet style though. a choice of either western (eggs, ham, sausage, toast) or asian (porridge, rice or congee). we could order as much as we liked & we could also order any juice or hot drinks with it. there was also a serve of assorted hand made bread available & fruits were served after the meal. meals in the restaurant were reasonably priced for lunch & dinner. the spa in the hotel costs about 3 times more than the typical thai ones elsewhere (less than in western countries still) but the service and the atmosphere is just so luxurious & calming. we had a massage in a group of 3 in the large rotunda room (the best room at the best spa) & it actually costs less than in the private rooms. it had great views of the garden with its large windows all around. overall, a very new hotel (5 stars) with superb class & immaculate service (well trained staff, although their english is not that fluent) & probably the best available in khanchanaburi!"

"A real boutique resort located on Kwai Yai River bank with mountains as a backdrop, close to the famous River Kwai Bridge. Our second great time at the hotel. Top quality in every expects: rooms, garden, facilities etc. Room is compact, but very well fitted with exquisite amenities. Varieties of complementary excellent tea and real coffee (also a coffeemaker in room!) Complimentary fruits everyday. Delicious 6 Choices of breakfast menu and more choices of top quality tea & coffee at the restaurant on the river bank make our morning wonderful. Top of the top! Chill-out seating on the river bank, swimming pool facing the river, manicured lawns/garden and library make our stay memorable. Above all, 5-star services and hospitality of every staffs from manager to gardeners. The River Kwai Bridge, shops and restaurants are in the walking-distance. Every trip to Kanchanaburi, we'll always stay at this place, for sure! Tip Keeree-Tara restaurant is the best, only 5 minute-walk. Going out at night, walk 10 minutes further crossing the railroad and continue a bit, you will find a small road full with small bars and food stalls."

"Lovely staff. Got small swiming pool, pond and garden, with restaurant facing river kwai which it is good to dine there at night or in the morning. Love the banana and coconut shake. Breakfast is lovely and have plenty of choices. We stayed in room #105. The room is little bit small 20 sqm but enough to fit in a large luggage and 2 backpacks. Wifi there though not so good/stable but i feel my dtac 4g there also not so good either, may be it's telco's fault we can't blame the resort. About 20 min walk to river kwai bridge. You can rent a car nearby for 1300 baht a day and half a tank of petrol which cost 400 baht for 300km drive. Quiet room as the room is not too near to the river which there may have party boats during weekend."

"Stayed here for 2 nights from the 7th-9th January. When we arrived our Bungalow that we booked was not available so they put us into a "New Room" which was great. Views over the River Kwai and very quiet and tranquil. The room was spacious with a large bed, separate bathroom, small fridge and Air Con. Free WiFi was available but didn't work in the room at all. On the second night we were moved to our Thai Bungalow but wished that we had asked to stay in the 1st room. The room itself was great with all the same amenities but very noisy as it was just across from the restaurant / bar which was busy every night. The pool was very clean and large with seating available. The food was excellent and very reasonably priced. Within walking distance to many bars and restaurants nearby. Was only 80 baht to get to Bridge over River Kwai in Tuk Tuk (Aud $3 roughly). Free parking available at no charge. Great place to stay but book a quiet room."

About a 15 minute walk to the bridge and accompanying museum, can catch a "taxi" the opposite direction for 4 minutes to get to the main part of town."
