The RiverKwai Bridge Resort

The location was brilliant - close to the bridge, on the river, and near all the restaurants etc. It has more of an authentic kind of feel to it rather than a modern hotel which was really nice. The decking near the river was nice for a beer (bought from the fridge at reception) at sunset and also breakfast is served there. Felt safe and very relaxing and peaceful. Staff were helpful too. They arranged for us a taxi to Erawan falls, the driver waited for us for a few hours while we explored and swam etc and then offered to take us to see a huge hydro power station and dam nearby plus some other sites on the way back. All arranged and pre paid at reception. Super friendly driver who went above and beyond.

Place is lovely and this end of Kanchanaburi is quieter, it has a nice pool but no bar for evening. However, there is a great restaurant over the road where we eat well every night for about 400 baht including Changs😀plus there is a 7 eleven just up the road. Also quicker to get off at Saphan Kwae Yai rather than main Kanchanaburi station as long as you can walk 300 yards

The resort is in a beautiful setting, with regular visits from the nearby-resident chickens, squirrels and other birds. It was a pleasure to have a nice cold drink on the balcony in the (relatively) cool of evening hearing these nature sounds, and seeing the animals producing them! :) The villas are spacious, well-appointed and comfortable, and we stayed several nights (on top of this booking). We would have stayed longer if our circumstances had not unexpectedly changed. The resort is located very close to the supermarket (7-11), money changers, museums, restaurants, and of course the River Kwai Bridge. It is an exceptionally good location. The resort restaurant is waterside, with very good views of the river, passing river traffic, and the bridge. The breakfast was a buffet of very good quality, which I highly recommend. 24 hour help-yourself coffee is also available near the hotel reception via a coffee-maker, which we certainly used and much appreciated. By far, the best comment I can make about the resort is the exceptional support and caring that was shown by the staff, and the manager, after my wife had a traumatic fall resulting in a severely broken wrist. The manager arranged for transport (free-of-charge) using the resort's own luxury van (most comfortable vehicle I've ever been in!) to-and-from the local hospital for emergency treatment Meals were provided to the room, without even asking, with staff enquiring how my wife was faring. We were extremely touched, and very appreciative. It was my wife's injury that resulted in us leaving the resort earlier than planned, as we had to travel to Bangkok for urgent surgery (which went well, I'm pleased to say!). The manager also arranged our taxi back to Bangkok, and refunded our pre-paid unused nights at the resort - she was incredibly supportive. Much appreciated!

Perfect place to chill out & relax - room smelled of wood & frangipani - balcony overlooked playing squirrels & native chickens- breakfast & evening sat in the cooling river breeze overlooking the River Kwai Bridge watching the swallow-tailed boats zip past & the train slowly cross the bridge with bells ringing= magic!

Good breakfast
