3-Star Hotels in Kanchanaburi

We absolutely loved this hotel we even stayed an extra night as we could not bear too leave , A great welcome from the staff nothing to much trouble , 20 mins walk to bridge 20 mins to town , 15 to great food market , but normally a motorcycle taxi outside if to far. we sacrificed the view for a pool room but once you seen one river you seen em all so suggest you do same as wonderful straight out of door and into the cool water ,my only slight negative is been nice if the closed in area that on other rooms is a balcony was open with a table n chair to sit by pool but maybe it for child safety. breakfast basic (but just out of covid so maybe more choice normally) excellent quality ingredients and wonderful eating t overlooking the river what a start to the day. Would say if you have mobility issues may be better to speak to hotel as we loved the quirky design but involves a lot of steps to get restaurant and pool. We absolutely loved this hotel its amazing staff and the town , we will be back!

Great little budget hotel next to railway & Bridge over the river Kwai with spacious rooms. Great location to catch the train (we went on Sunday to Erawan waterfall by chance at 10am) The journey was fantastic over death railway, well worth the trip just for that as the upper tiers of the waterfall were closed due to covid one of the national park workers told us. The hotel was a bit dated but spotlessly clean everywhere, warm water and good shower & pressure. Clean towels everyday & bed linen changed after 2 nights! The bed & pillows were really comfortable too. Waters & Herbal tea & coffee provided every day but would have been nice to have black teabag in room. Wi-Fi a bit slow but we knew that before we came however we weren’t here to sit on the iPhone all day😁 Breakfast was nice & hot and you could choose more than 1 menu for each person. Nice short stay in good location and I would recommend. Plenty of bars/restaurants at other end of the road with cheap taxi fare (under 100THB for a grab taxi) Nice floating restaurant on the river less than 2 mins walk right by the bridge. Couldn’t take pic of the large bed as I have disturbed it.

This is a 3 star resort with a 5 star service. A hidden gem tucked in narrow alley. Don't get fooled by the simple entrance/reception. Amazing service and hospitality by resort owner, Chalee. The resort it self very quiet and secluded but yet close to all amenities. Breakfast was awesome for a 3 star. We usually don't eat at hotels but their restaurant food was so good, that we ended dining there most of the time and affordable too. Rooms are big and clean. One big pool and one small pool to choose from. We will definitely consider this place again.

It’s a simple hotel. Has lots of parking space beside the building. Room has complimentary bunch of bananas, few pieces of sponge cakes, coffee and tea and 2 cans of Singha soda drinks. Has a clothes rack at the balcony. A recliner chair. Comfortable bed, quiet air con. Water pressure is good. Strong Wi-Fi. Nothing more to ask for. Everything we need is there. At night no reception, but the key card will let you open the lobby main door, another door that lead to the lift. So is double security system. About 1 km to Jeath Museum, 1km to JJ Night market, 650m to wash and go laundry shop. We love this small little hotel.

Very old and out of date. No facilities apart from breakfast. We arrived and saw the beautiful reception area and it went down hill from there. Asked for another room as first was filthy, second not much better but shower was cleaner. Pool area disgusting, no bar or snack area, no coffee shop, as advertised, no restaurant as advertised, no spar as advertised No hot water in evening for a shower, tried calling reception but none of the house phones work . Engineer said leave the water to run , 1 hour later we had warm water. This is a joke of a hotel, if your going to reopen after Covid. Then open fully as advertised. We unfortunately prepaid for five nights so put up with it but book at your peril, it's not a cheap hotel and I have stayed in cheaper but far far better hotels. There are better hotels in the area for less money . I have looked for positives but can't find any.

I stayed here in December as a group of 4 friends in a family room with private bathroom. The room has 2 single beds and a bunk bed. The room was spacious and the bathroom was huge. We also made use of the shared bathrooms on the 2nd floor which was really useful considering we had 4 adults sharing one room. All bathrooms had large bottles of shower gel and shampoo to use. The aircon kept the room really cool but the bathroom was quite hot unless we left the door open to allow the aircon to reach it. The breakfast was OK, you had to order it the night before and they bring the whole rooms order when one person goes down to breakfast. This was a bit of an issue for us on the first day as we usually go down to breakfast at different times. We managed to get this changed for the subsequent days. Personally, I wasn’t keen on the breakfast but this was down to the options available rather than the actual food. We had dinner at the hotel one night and the food was wonderful! The shared lounge areas are lovely. The downstairs areas are air conditioned but the 2nd floor area isn’t. They were really spacious and comfortable to hang out in. The location was great for us too. We walked to the railway museum and cemetery and there were plenty of restaurants and bars in walking distance. If arriving by train, I would recommend arranging a pick up with the hotel as we struggled to find a taxi when we arrived. We asked the hotel to help us with transport to Erawan Falls and Hellfire Pass and hired a driver for the day for 2200 baht which drove us to the falls in the morning, waited while we made the hike, then took us to Hellfire Pass around 1.30pm before driving back to the hotel around 4pm. I would highly recommend both trips. Overall the hotel staff were really friendly and helpful with all of our requests.

If you are a tight budget , this is the place to stay in Kanchanaburi . Close to what is on offer like the war graves and bar areas Very clean room and shower area very clean. Pool and car parking good . I enjoyed the restaurant that was on the river all rounded to a comfortable stay over the Anzac Day period .

We have recently stayed at Bamboo House for 2 nights. The site is lovely, quiet and very picturesque on the river, and easy walking distance to the Kwai Bridge. I agree with the last reviewer re upgrade your room. We had booked to stay in the floating hut on the river but found it rather too basic with mattresses on the floor and a fan (although cheap!). We also felt rather sea sick when boats went past as the cabin rocked considerably. The hut walls were obviously very thin so it meant that you heard the considerable noise from the party boats going past in the evening. The restaurant area was lovely, with good food and helful staff . The garden area was also very nice and quiet. I would recommend Bamboo House, just not staying in the floating hut!

The guest house has a range of rooms from more modern concrete structures to wooden cottages set on wooden piers in a quiet tributary of the River Kwai. We were upgraded to a riverfront cottage, of which there are about four. The others are set slightly back but still have a river view. It’s a budget guest house, (we paid around £20 per night and stayed 3 nights) so don’t expect any frills. Things are a bit worn but it was clean enough and the bed was the comfiest I’ve had in Asia. We used our own mosquito net but even after a lot of recent rain we had no problem with insects. One slightly disconcerting thing was that the shower, and I believe though not certain, that the toilet flushes straight into the river! Despite that there is plenty of wildlife around, lots of birds and one morning we saw a 4 foot monitor lizard swim across the river. It’s very central- 5 mins walk to bars, restaurants, supermarkets etc. in spite of that and the fact that it was a holiday weekend it seemed quiet with lots of spare rooms and we slept very well. We enjoyed our time here and would come again.
