Small and peaceful resort at the famous River Kwai, centrally located at only 15 min. drive from Kanchanaburi downtown and on the way to sights as Erawan waterfalls, Elephants world & Hellfire pass. The 12 cottages are spread throughout a teak forest and beautiful tropical garden. The cottages have all facilities to make your stay as comfortable as possible and are designed in a warm Thai style. The resort has a cozy restaurant on site that overlooks the River Kwai and in the garden you'll find a lovely swimming pool. Tour, local taxi and transfer service available.

Amazing
Without a doubt, the cleanest hotel I've ever stayed in. How the (wonderful) owners keep this hotel so immaculate is simply amazing. A perfect, perfect resort. Thank you to the owners and staff for your continued dedication and pursuit of excellence. Oh, and you have some of the best Thai food in Thailand! - both in taste and presentation.

Hidden Haven
Oriental Kwai was recommended to us by a few Canadian friends. We were so glad we followed their advice. This resort is a little hidden gem. The owners, Evelien and Joe are such nice, honest and kind people. They helped make our stay to be so relaxed and easy. We booked the Gardenview cabin and it was just the right size for the 3 of us. Breakfast was good as there was a mix of western and local options, and best was the fresh fruits! We were there for 4 days and had dinner there one night and ordered curry dishes and it was absolutely delicious. We also arranged to visit a few sites through them as well, and had drivers take us around so that we wouldn't need to rush on organized tours. They took care of the smallest details. It was a perfect getaway! The service was friendly and rooms were clean. Would definitely go back if we can! A car rental would have been a good choice since taxi service was difficult for us to figure out.…

Wonderful and All that it’s Cracked Up to Be!
We travelled to Oriental Kwai Resort as a couple for a little relaxation away from the hustle and bustle of Bangkok. Everything we read online proved to be true, this place is fantastic, so much so that we already booked our next trip. The resort is peacefully located just outside the main city and surrounded in beautiful flora and fauna. Oasis for the nature and animal lover. We give full props to the owners for their true love for animals, amongst the immaculate cared for cottages and surrounding grounds, beautiful greens and flowers, they have taken in a number of sweet sweet sweet soi dogs and cats and given them a great home to live and thrive! Wow, just wow, hats off. The owners have also taken in 4 beautiful goats that resort visitors have full access to in the goat pen. For us, the animal and nature lovers we are, this was paradise. While we have huge praise and happy memories of our time here, this is a fair warning to those that don’t like quiet, tranquility, or aren’t a fan of animals, then this isn’t the place for you. But for those looking for a piece of quiet paradise in an immaculately kept resort with delicious (and we mean blow your socks off) Thai food, surrounded by the Kwai river, greenery and animals then fill your boots - this place is fantastic and a highly recommended go and try! Thank you Oriental Kwai Resort for making our little getaway all that it was for us! We had a great time and look forward to seeing you over New Years. …
