We had an excellent stay at this resort,having your own transport makes it a lot easier as it is a little way out of town, but right on the river and only a couple of KMs from the bridge, would stay at this resort again
Reservation service:

Very disappointing. The staff were rude and unhelpful. The rooms dark and depressing. The food was unimpressive. All in all the worst place we stayed in Thailand.

Accommodation and facilities:
The resort iself is situated beautifully on the bank of the River Kwai. Rooms were spacious, staff were very pleasant and helpful. We attended a New Year s eve party, and it felt that everything was fully geared to Pung Waan s oriental customers as everything was in their language. We has apparently won a prize on the raffle, but because it wasn t read in english as well as Thai/Manderin etc, we didn t realise. We also experienced the restaurant once for dinnner and was very disappointed when the food came out cold as they had limited staff due to a hotel function, and it didn t help that the staff didn t understand us. It would ve helped if someone had asked us how they could put it right, but they couldn t. It does seem that Pung Waan management need to access it s overall customer service, to really understand it s customers. If you can t offer the same level of service to British or American people then perhaps it might be best not to entertain us. It was supposed to be a nice resort covering the new year to break up our travels and we left there sorely disappointed. We won t be going back in a hurry!

We were disappointed about the announced breakfast serving time - it said 6-10, but as we arrived at 7, there was nothing to have - and we had to leave for the airport with empty stomachs.

Accommodation and facilities:
This is a wonderful place in a beautiful environment. The rooms are large, spacious, clean, nicely decorated. The swimming pool area just beautiful and a large pool with spotlight for night swimming. We stayed in a room with view on the river and I recommend this option. Just perfect to relax. Not too far from Kanchanaburi town centre either. The staff could do better with a little English lesson. communication were a little limited but we finally could understand each other.
Reservation service:
Excellent, efficient as usual, fast, convenient, just perfect!

Accommodation and facilities:
We picked this hotel to be a quiet place but close to Kanchanaburi - perfect in both respects - lots of room to walk and enjoy the river frontage - great facilities and staff -food excellent - on line internet service was down when we arrived but they fixed it within a day; and the hotel developer has an interesting adjacent real estate opportunity for home buyers - check it out !!! We ll make this place our home next time we are staying in k- buri.
Reservation service:
Excellent - even though this reservation was made on line in the middle of my trip without the ability to print out the voucher - Sawadee is the best I think - rapid response - help with questions and good follow up - you make it seem like you really care about your client from reservation to check-out
