2 night stay April 2024.
I love staying at this hotel. Very peaceful and the staff can’t do enough for you. The main swimming pool is beautiful and clean, the walk along the river Kwai is lovely. The breakfast is amazing. I’ve stopped here a couple of times now and I will definitely be returning again.

Stunning estate of spacious buildings with huge rooms, grand balconies, excellent air-con, ample hot water and all amenities. Two pools, verdant grounds. Not impressed with wifi or internal lagoon, but the lillypads were great.

Lovely hotel and the room overlooking the river was beautiful. The pool area was also nice and you can ring and order drinks and they bring them to you. The only downfall is it’s about 20 minutes away from the city however we stopped here as it was a 10 minute walk to the bridge over the river Kwai. Staff were pleasant overall a nice stay!

Excellent but big resort at the riverside
Excellent, but big resort with large and spacious hotel rooms and 2 amazing swimmingpools!
Post Covid it was very empty but the hotel could not do anyting about it.
It was a pity though that the floating restaurant was closed since the indoor restaurant lacked atmosphere.
Close enough to the town if you walk across the bridge, otherwise you need a taxi.

Overlook Hotel - "The Shining"
Nice Big Hotel with no Guests.
Feels like in the movie "The Shining"
Big bathroom, but no seperate shower.
You still have to shower in the bathtub.
Only the empty hotel, nothing to see around in the area, you need a transport.

Liked: Staff & service
This is a really nice property and lovely swimming pool options. Always seemed like a lack of staff particularly around breakfast time. The grounds are nice and great frontage to the river. An easy 10 mins walk to Kwai bridge makes this ideal for getting to that area.
the staff weren't that friendly2, polite yes so would say hello but rarely servcie with a smile

Very beautiful property and gorgeous river view room! Be prepared for lots of mosquitoes, spiders, and wall geckos in your room! The whole place was beautiful, lots of things to do:) We seemed to be the only people there, it gave a little bit of “White Lotus” vibes. There is a direct path to the Bridge over the River Kwai though! Although, you cannot use the path at night

Great hotel, just needs a little attention x
We have been coming to this hotel since 2015 and it’s still one of our favourites. In truth it is now in need of a little attention. The bathrooms desperately need updating preferably with walk in showers. My only real gripe is the lack of coat hangers. When on a 3 week holiday I require more than 2 coat hangers per person. That said, we still love this hotel, its location and its staff. They truly cannot do enough for you and the food is excellent. We’ll be back x

hidden gem, nice peaceful resort with its own park
Great stay in this wonderful resort:nice gardens, giving the customer peace and tranquillity, 2 swimming pools and walk way beside the river. The breakfast is great, especially Thai food, and staf very friendly.
The rooms have had better times, power plugs are outdated,and no USB sockets (for the high tech freaks) some issues with Wi-Fi, especially in the weekend when a lot of Thai groups pass by.
Without car the hotel might be difficult to access, you can walk to the city over the historical bridge, but not after dark. After all, this hotel stays our favorite in Kanchanaburi, the gardens bring rest and peace, no hustle like in daily life, We come back every year to visit our family, and Felix is our number one hotel

Disliked: Room comfort
Uncomfortable Experience
No pressure in the shower even after the maintenance said they fixed it.
Breakfast was sub-par and the buffet was full of flies.
The air conditioning in the room was not strong enough to keepthe room cool which made it difficult to sleep.
Do everyone a favor and close this out- of -date hotel.
The photos do not reflect reality. I came with my son who was 2 and a half and wanted to use the playground and have dinner over looking the bridge which is advertised int he pictures.This didn’t happen and I raised it with the hotel and they seemed either embarrassed as I don’t think I was the first to say this or didn’t want to engage in the conversation. Wouldn’t stay again but if you want one night and be able to walk round to the bridge super convenient.
