My mum dad and I stayed in the family room for three nights and really enjoyed our stay. The owners and staff were so accommodating and kind. Even gave us breakfast at 4am for our airport trip. It is a long way from the town but it is a relaxing haven with green trees and right on the river Kwai.... More

We spent 2 nights in the Oriental Kwai Resort and we were not disappointed. We had booked a family bungalow, it was located near the River, huge (3 rooms !), very well equipped and just close to the reception and restaurant ! The owner and the staff are very nice, the place is well maintained and the small restaurant is... More

Many reviews already rave about this spot, so there's probably not much more to add - other than to endorse all the positives. I came up here for just one night from Bangkok after a conference; too little time, but all I could afford before returning home. After the large city, this location is an adyllic escape. Grounds are well-maintained... More

There is nothing better than planning a trip for family and the chosen accomodation far exceeds your expectations. This is the case with this absolutely wonderful resort. It is meticulously clean, BEAUTIFULLY landscaped, incredible customer service and without a doubt one of the finest management and aesthetically gorgeous exteriors I have seen in over 10+ years of travel and living...

Although a few miles out of Kanchanaburi, the Oriental Kwai is well worth the wait. Small boutique and very friendly. Owners were great and happy to chat. The bedrooms are good, well designed and with nice touches. The electric shower wasnt the best but it worked. The restaurant was excellent, service very attentive, food was fantastic, the only disappointment was... More

My family and I (wife and 4 kids) stayed here for two nights. We got a great family room at a great price. The resort is away from everything so you need a taxi to get anywhere. The restuarant is good and the owners are great. Besides the owners the staff did not speak much English. I found that surprising... More

First of all the owners are very helpful, from organising transfers to and from Bangkok airport, to recommendations and answering emails etc. All the staff are also really friendly and professional. We arrived during a thunder storm and we felt very welcomed, and the staff were very efficient in getting us inside with umbrellas etc. Also they kept the restaurant... More

My friends and I enjoyed a lovely 2 night stay. Having stayed here 4 years ago, it was an easy choice to return to this hotel. We combined the stay with a spa visit at Suan Nanachaat which is a perfect combination. The rooms are as welcoming as they were 4 years ago. During a rain storm, umbrellas were delivered... More

This beautiful resort was everything that has been written and more. The cabins were tastefully decorated and welcoming, clean, with a veranda to relax and soak in the beauty of the gardens and picture perfect landscaping. Our cabin No. 7 - had our own long walkway and fish filled pond, so lovely to sit and bask in the exotic surroundings.... More
