I stayed here for six nights, and the staff were very friendly. It’s easy to walk to nearby shops, and the area is peaceful and quiet. The views of the river and the surrounding mountains are beautiful. I really enjoyed the free breakfast—my favorite dish was the noodle soup. Overall, it’s a very good place to stay, and the price is reasonable.

象を多用した絢爛豪華な大推奨ホテル。朝食も非常に美味しい本当に素晴らしいホテル。

いつぞやの宿無し、スタッフ就労拒否を回避すべく予め電話にて確認しちゃんと泊まることが出来て心底よかった。 ウボンラチャタニからバスで来たが、中国資本の橋を渡り右折すると車窓から見える。バスターミナルから来た道を戻ること徒歩10分。象を多用した豪華な当ホテルに辿り着ける。対岸に大仏と大河を臨む中のプールも最高だった。また朝食が大変美味しかった。また泊まりたい大推奨ホテル。因みにワット・プーへは橋のロータリーへ戻りトゥクトゥクと交渉、往復800バーツ、片道1hだった。英語すら極めて通じ難い、またバーツが予想に反して殆ど全く使えなかった。

スタッフの英語力があれば100点。

中学生の長女と旅行で3泊。素朴な気取らないスタッフの対応が良く、ロケーションもメコン川の真横で最高、少々古い設備ながら実に雰囲気のある宿であった。ただ、それをスタッフの英語能力の乏しさが台無しにしている。最低でも必要な程度に訓練すれば、一段と良いホテルになると思う(長女が熱を出した際には経営者自ら病院に来てくれ、素晴らしいハートを感じた。それ位良いと言いたいので勿体無い)。

Disappointing

This hotel should be far better than we found it. This a large hotel with a bar that was closed in the evening. The swimming pool was green with algae which I think is an indication that it is not being treated correctly with chemicals. There are no sun shades around the pool which made it unusable during the day due to the hot temperatures. The location is poor as it it is away from the restaurants. We went out one evening and had to walk back due to the lack of tuk tuks. On the positive side the rooms were spacious and the views of the river geat. The only restaurant in the hotel was Chinese and charged for the ice to go into the drinks.

Unorganized

Booked a double sided bed. Gave us two rooms one bed. Paid by credit card but also paid on cash. Clerk had to return money later. The standard room was dull and outdated. Bathroom had only tub no standing shower. Internet did not work. Requested to fix but did not while we were there. Eating area outside was slapped together. Would not recommend. Look for a better stay.

メコン川と対岸のゴールデンブッダを眺望できる豪華なホテル。 全体的にやや古さを感じるが、スタッフの対応は大変良いと思う。 朝食のブッフェは料理の種類も多く満足できるものでした。 結果的に利用しませんでしたが、空港送迎の時間やチェックアウト後の荷物預かりなどの対応も希望に沿って答えてくれます。

Nice pool, great staff, clean.

Nice place, nearly empty for the first few days we stayed, then a wedding on Friday night brought in some people. The river view from the "river" side room is amazing. The backside rooms look over a reception hall, some wires, a business or two and you can possibly see the mountains in a distance. Get the BREAKFAST. Its buffet and its big. Plenty of choices. One morning we were the only people eating in a nice place that must seat 100. The "Chinese" restaurant really doesn't have any Chinese food, serves small portions and the Indian curry was bland. Skip it. That said, the nearest restaurant or street vendor is about a kilometer away. I RECOMMEND the hotel provide free bicycles (they said they didn't have any for free or for rent) and rent scooters because the hotel aways from everything. The pool is nice. The pool is big and nice. The pool is well maintained and one can view the river while in it. The wooden pool lounge chairs need simple repairs and refinishing. They look like pool chairs in a $3/night hotel in India. The cement around the pool area could use a facelift and repairs. So mostly cheap simple repairs to make this hotel a beautiful, top notch Asian hotel.

Restaurant was horribly overpriced and the food was mediocre at best. It is located out of town so a tuk tuk is required to go anywhere. They provided a pamphlet listing different amenities that didn't exist. However it was very nice on the Mekong and to see the gold Buddha on the hill and had a swimming pool however they didn't provide pool towels.
