We spent two nights at the Floathouse River Kwai. Our room was stunning, and we spent hours on our deck, enjoying the peaceful beauty of the river. From check in to departure, every staff member we encountered was courteous and strove to make our experience memorable. The food in the restaurant was excellent (we ate there 5x). The Floathouse offers many different excursions and activities, but my favorite times were spent just sitting on the deck, enjoying the sunshine and watching the river. The sound of the river moving under our Floathouse was soothing and the bed was super comfortable. For an incredibly unique experience, I highly recommend Floathouse River Kwai.

We stayed two nights at the Floathouse hotel over the river Kwai. It was a great experience overall. The hotel room has appropriate facilities as advertised. There was no pool but you can take a quick walk to the sister hotel Resortel to use the pool there. The environment was very quite and calming. The river Kwai is so beautiful when it rains. A variety of activity can be done but you have to pay additional fees for most of them. The restaurant has a number of menu (both Thai and Western food) and the taste was above average I would say. The staff were friendly and helpful (shoutout to Tony!). All in all, we enjoyed our stay there and would come back when circumstances met.

mattresses are so old and saggy. pillows are too high and thick. If the resort willingly replace new mattresses and softer pillows, it is a great place to get away from the noisy and crowded city on the weekend
