Very nice hotel in beautiful surroundings with very friendly people. Only negative comment is that the hotel is once a day flooded with Russian guests who seem to think that they own the hotel.

About the hotel:
Excellent service and beautiful facility. Food was superb and more than ample! Our room was comfortable, clean, and always felt cool. There were ants, worms, etc. that are all part of the jungle experience as this facility is much farther into the jungle than I had expected; but was pleased with. The only point that needs improvement is the initial ride upriver to the hotel with all the luggage and overloaded boat. We did not feel safe and did not expect to have to take off our shoes, carry heavy luggage on top of rocks into the water in the rain. An optional boarding spot should be considered when the river is low and the weather is inclement. Otherwise, the facility was beautiful and our tour guide, Mr. Kha, was fantastic. We will recommend this to others with the consideration to be prepared for river travel and wear shoes that are river worthy and pack cameras etc. for river travel.
About the reservation service:
Communication with the hotel and booking agency were fast and convenient.

About the hotel:
This was our forth stay at the River Kwai Resotel. The resort is set in amazing gardens along the River Kwai with majestic mountains on both sides of the resort. We love this resort as it is the perfect place to relax and unwind and a getaway from the city. The resort is well situated for various activities and visits such as: the Lawa cave, elephant riding, rafting, a visit to the Mon village, the Saiyok National Park and waterfalls, the Erawan National park and waterfall, the Hellfire Museum, etc. Taking a ride in a longtail boat on the river to and from the resort is a lot of fun. The bungalows are very comfortable and well appointed in Thai style. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. We look forward to our next visit to the Resotel.
About the reservation service:
Excellent, as usual!

About the hotel:
- Resotel staff are very capable, kind, generous, energetic and helpful. - Room and facilities are alright, excepted that they shouldn t let their steamroom closed. Swimming pool is very neatly maintenance. - Garden is explicitly noticed that in a routinely take care of. - Thai typical food dishes are very good! Western is also nice too. By the way, they should provide more options or choices in the buffet lines. They can add a higher food cost in the package. I think visitors at this hotel is exlucive guests and are able or willingly pay for more that add more value or choices to them. - Breakfast buffet line menu should replace once a year and add more choices too. - All in all they have niche market for those who seek exotic, prime taget group or local Thai who are modern and in the upper class segment. they can pay more for nicer options. I think I will visit there at least once a year to refresh my mind and my soul.
About the reservation service:

About the hotel:
The hotel is nice but be prepared to stay at the hotel until you are ready to leave. Access to the hotel is by boat and although there is a road, I was told you cannot drive to it. The scenery is beautiful: river views, vegetation, etc. but be sure to bring mosquito repellent.
About the reservation service:
Sawadee.com is provides reliable, consistent, good bookings and is consistently cheaper than the hotel sites. Why pay more when you can use Sawadee.com.

About the hotel:
Well organised full board tour, took in most major highlights of Kanchanaburi but also allowed plenty of free time to relax in between. The 2 days, 3 nights seemed much longer. The Mon Dance was surprisingly good too & our Mon guide was also very helpful, and always willing to assist us (from carrying luggage to serving our food) which made the trip more enjoyable(& he didn t seek a tip!). Having seen what you get for the same price at the nearby Jungle Rafts I m very happy we chose the hotel. The rooms were clean & comfortable, and the grounds were all very well kept. Would reccomend this tour
About the reservation service:
