My stay at Monsane River Kwai Resort was a mixed bag. The location next to the river was picturesque, yet the approach through a cement factory was off-putting. I faced several issues with my initial room, but upgrading to a suite was a better option despite the steep access stairs. Overall, the highlights were the serene setting, but the service and dining options left much to be desired. 😕🌅

Rooms

5.0

I initially stayed in a room with stained bed sheets and overlooked a rusty roof. Upon upgrading to a river-facing suite, I enjoyed the view but had to navigate steep stairs. The bathrooms were also in dire need of maintenance.

Service

5.0

The staff seemed indifferent to my concerns regarding cleanliness and did not offer help with luggage. Their English skills were limited, which hampered communication.

Location

5.0

Nestled right by the River Kwai, the location was beautiful, albeit challenging to access due to the road's appearance and nearby cement factory. It felt remote, which could be a downside for some.

Dining

Breakfast was bland and limited to mostly toast, making it quite disappointing. The overall dining experience didn't meet my expectations, especially considering the setting.

While the resort boasted lovely views of the river, it left much to be desired in terms of maintenance and overall cleanliness.

I absolutely loved my stay at Monsane River Kwai Resort, despite a few drawbacks. The location on the banks of the River Kwai offered stunning views and a peaceful ambiance. While the rooms were small and could use some updates, I found the staff to be friendly and accommodating. Sadly, the breakfast options were quite disappointing, but overall, the charm of the place kept me happy.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were small, and I experienced some issues like a hard bed and high pillows. However, the view of the river made up for it. I noticed some cleanliness issues too, but I was mostly there just to sleep.

Service

6.0

The staff were super friendly and very helpful with anything I needed, even if the service was a bit hit-or-miss at times. I appreciated that they accommodated my requests.

Location

7.0

The resort is a bit out of the way, located along the river at one of its widest points. It was peaceful and serene, perfect for relaxing nights on the balcony.

Dining

5.0

Breakfast was not great, with options like cold fried eggs and plastic sausages. I ended up buying my own food after a few days. The dining area does offer a nice view though.

Facilities

5.0

While the pool was lovely, the overall facilities felt a bit dated and could use some renovation. The viewing area was nice, but things like the communal bathrooms needed attention.

My stay at Monsane River Kwai Resort was quite disappointing due to several maintenance issues and concerns about accessibility. While the staff were friendly and supportive, the quality of the accommodations left much to be desired. The location is serene, but if you don't have your own transport, it can be quite inconvenient.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were small and bare with concrete floors, making them feel quite unwelcoming. The beds were incredibly hard, akin to sleeping on a board (I had to use extra blankets for comfort). There were also issues with cleanliness, as my room was not made up during my stay.

Service

5.0

The staff were extremely friendly and eager to assist, though language barriers made communication challenging. They did respond promptly when I complained about noise, but I felt dismissed at first, which was frustrating.

Location

5.0

Located near the River Kwai, the resort is quite picturesque, but its remote setting makes it a hassle to access without a car. It definitely doesn't feel like a retreat if you can't get to town easily.

Dining

5.0

Dining options were limited, focused mostly on Thai food, and the restaurant's atmosphere was marred by the dullness of the menu. I found myself dining in the lobby more often than not, which wasn't ideal.

Facilities

5.0

The pool was well maintained and a highlight, but the overall facilities felt neglected. The restaurant decking had seen a recent renewal, but much of the resort needed attention and upgrades.

My stay at Monsane River Kwai Resort was quite disappointing. The location offered stunning views along the River Kwai, but I encountered numerous issues during my visit. The breakfast was very basic and not appetizing, and the room felt run down with inadequate maintenance.

Rooms

I found the room to be small and poorly furnished, and unfortunately, it wasn’t clean when I arrived back after my first day. The bathroom got wet after each shower, and there were safety concerns due to the room's design.

The resort is set in a lovely spot right on the River Kwai with beautiful views, but being so far from town was a pain as it required a taxi to get anywhere. The road leading to the hotel felt unsettling.

I booked a river view room but found it to be far smaller than advertised. The furnishings were a bit dated, and there were no telephones in the room, which was quite inconvenient.

Service

The staff were kind and welcoming, which was a plus. However, they struggled with English, and there were several service issues that made the experience frustrating. For instance, my requests for assistance with the Wi-Fi were not adequately addressed.

Location

The setting is truly gorgeous, right by the river where I enjoyed amazing views, day and night. However, it's quite far from the town, which made finding dining options challenging.

Dining

Breakfast was a disappointment; the quality was poor, with rubbery eggs and minimal options. The flies on the fresh fruit were especially off-putting.

Facilities

The pool was under renovation, and overall, the facilities felt outdated and in need of a refresh. The beach area looked uninviting, and the laundry service was subpar.
