The Float House River Kwai

Our stay at The Float House was idyllic, the bedroom, the bathroom and the deck were perfect, every detail was well thought out. We spent 2 nights and one full day at The Float House. In the day, we rode the bicycles along the path to the local village, cave and fruit farm. We also took a boat ride from the resort to the parking area and back and enjoyed a few beers and pad ga pow at the local restaurant there. And of course, we enjoyed jumping in the river and getting taken downstream in the current. Breakfast was great and included everything you could need, Western and Asian. We ate at the restaurant both nights and the food was good and reasonably priced given the location. I would say this is the best floating resort in the area. I would come again

This is an amazing hotel in an incredible and unique location. Great comms about the boat ride to the property and the reception staff were very helpful in arranging an activity and our outbound transport. The pool that you are able to use is a 10 minute walk away in another resort but it is worth going. Floating in the river from the hotel is great fun - just ask at reception about what to do. The high ropes activity up river is very good although a little pricey. The bedrooms are superb. Very comfortable bedding and lovely decking outside on the river front. Dinner menu is very good and the quality of food for lunch and dinner was great. Breakfast was awful sadly. Poor choices and poor quality. We had ants in our croissants. Also, the waiting team are not very attentive at clearing dishes and glasses away. They were very friendly but just lacked the polish to make the experience high quality. Would very much recommend a 2 night stay here but hopefully breakfast would be better.

A therapeutic retreat from the hustle and bustle of city life. You feel like you are in a 4-star resort, but it’s hard to believe that you’re in the middle of nowhere (on a floating house with water flowing beneath your floorboards!).

The accommodation was very unique and extremely comfortable. It was clean and the food was tasty. The staff was helpful and well-organized. We really enjoyed our stay and we will certainly be back to just enjoy the nature.

We had a wonderful 2-night stay at the Float House. Everything was lovely. Stay - The rooms, the bed, amenities and facilities were great. View - It's just peaceful and tranquil. Lucky that we had quiet neighbours. We sat on decking and the swing for hours. Even late night, we switch off some lights and sat on the swing. Whispering to ourselves while listening to the river flows. Wine, drinks and snacks of course. No mosquitos. The air was so fresh too. (There are lots of mosquitos at the parking areas, above the hotel though) Food - Breakfast was pretty good. We had lunch and dinner at the Potoon restaurant too. The dishes are pretty decent and we enjoyed everything. The prices are not that high. Staff- Friendly, helpful and lovely :) Thank you! Activities- We only did one which is renting the raft and float down the river. It was said to be safe. I am surprised that I did even though I was scared. But pls be carful since the hotel won't take responsibilities for any accidents happen. Another way, from your hotel decking, you can also jump in the water with life jacket on. At the end of the hotel, there is small bridge with red flag (near spa) which you shall (must) climb up. If you miss that, there is still a long rope line which you can swim up. I struggled myself as I am not a good swimmer and I missed that red flag due to the strong current. I managed it in the end though. Had a panic attack 😃Lucky for me that there was staff watching out, but I m not sure if he standby all day. Just be carful then you'd be ok. If you are coming to Kachanaburi and looking for tranquility, romantic and a different experience, "The Float House" is the one. One more tip: If you are coming to the hotel by car, just hire from Bolt app. We only paid for 1800 bath from Bangkok Downtown to the hotel which is around 4 hours ( maybe 4.5 hours) drive to the hotel parking areas.
