The food was delicious and we loved the banana pancakes for breakfast and ate a couple of times in the evening too. The pool was lovely but got crowded but was great for cooling off. Staff friendly and helpful - we would stay again.

The staff was really kind and helpful. The bungalow room was very nice. The area is superb since it’s close to the busy street but away from the noise. Morning breakfast by the river bank were a highlight

We loved our stay at Pongphen Guesthouse. Great location. Easy walk to many restaurants, convenience stores, etc. 15 minute walk from Kanchanburi train station (where you board the Death Railway) and the Death Railway Museum and War Cemetary. Staff was super friendly and very helpful in booking tours and telling us what to see. Located along river, we had some beautiful sunset views! They were doing some construction by the pool which was a bit noisy during the day but otherwise it was fabulous!

Staff absolutely lovely and helpful always accommodating. Food good and restaurant part very clean . Staff There to help and just have a nice way about them. Clean tidy they look too and all staff cleaning staff laundry staff bar restaurant staff great . Unfortunately building work was going on so my rating came down. Noisy due to that as day time near pool wasn’t able to relax at all which usually is the better part of my stay . Also the tv as kept going on and off most annoying in the bungalow . Cannot complain at all with staff and all the team worked very hard in all their own ways . Would I go back I think so but not as long as I was there 7 days but felt comfortable as a rule Karen England

This was one of the best hotel experiences I’ve stayed at globally. It was so quaint and authentic. The setting was beautiful, at the end of the road made it quiet with trees and plants around to seclude. At the very end it overlooked the river and the pool was perfectly positioned. The restaurant is open all day and had a very extensive menu of Thai and Western foods at very reasonable prices. We ate here at every meal. Included breakfast was a choice of eggs on toast, cereal, pancakes or muesli plus drinks. The room was large with AC. The bathroom was a wet room with an electric shower that wasn’t particularly heated but it wasn’t needed in the Thai weather! Location allowed a good walk to the River Kwai bridge and outside of the war cemetery & death museum.

The staff was amazing and wonderful location. The breakfast was good, standard, but good. Room was large. Had to have the key in the slot to use the AC. No issue since most rooms seemed to have a secondary padlock style latch and we used our luggage lock to lock our room when not there. Bed was rock hard. I like a hard bed but these were plywood hard.

Cute and quirky place in a great location. Loved late afternoon beer overlooking the river. Very tranquil. Just one thing....some travellers are not considerate enough on their own in terms of their smoking habit around others. I wish they would ask guests to not smoke on the restaurant area, certainly not during breakfast hours.
