This was our first hotel in Thailand during our honeymoon. The main access is by boat - it shows how exclusive the hotel is. It's very charming and the staff is amazing, very friendly. We did not have dinner at the hotel - we've crossed the river - they have their private boat to assure you get to the other... More

We stayed at another hotel on the river but visited this place for dinner. My wife is quite picky with her Thai food and hates the avarage westernized food you get in a lot of hotels.

This boutique hotel is gorgeous - I'd prefer this to a modern purpose-built hotel any day. Being old does have a few drawbacks however - the squeaky bedroom floor for example, meaning if someone needs to get up in the night, the other person is inevitably woken up. The setting and the room itself were lovely and we found the... More
