Stayed at the Phung Waan Resort during a 4-day Khwae Noi River kayak descent in March 2013. The resort features extensive grounds. It has a large and a small swimming pool as well as a Jacuzzi room. Staff was very friendly and helpful. The bar was nice and comfortable and the food was quite good. Next to the classic menu,... More

this resort was very strange. it has lots going for it but a the same time theres something not quite right. the resort is in the middle of nowhere. first impressions were mixed. the hotel and grounds are huge and seem to be well looked after. the hotel sits right on the river which is idilic and great for pics....

Beautiful grounds but in the middle of nowhere. Restaurant staff very rude and no one speaks English. A ten minute walk from room to restaurant. Would not stay there again as staff are very difficult they have no idea how to treat customers.

Stayed here only one night as part of a tour visiting Hellfire Pass for Anzac day.Very quiet place with a room right on the edge of the river.Had dinner in the restaurant and breakfast after the dawn service all of which was ample.Looked to have a great pool and surrounds and even some sort of zoo.Very good service....

The swimming pool was an excellent way of cooling off... More

Located in its own large grounds on the banks of the River Kwai (Yai) with a great swimming pool, the hotel is nearly really good. However, the seclusion makes it difficult to walk outside and choose another restaurant if you don't really like the hotel restaurant (it is 2-3 kilometres into town). Similarly, the rooms we stopped in were somewhat... More

The Pung-Waan resort,Kanchanaburi is next to the Kwai river, The rooms are nice, with a TV though old, balcony, fine bathrooms. There is no buffet breakfast but overall i had a nice stay

If you are looking to get off the beaten trail, but like your luxury – a ride on the railway from Kanchanaburi to the end of the line (Nam Tok) and a stay at the Pungwaan resort - is a great combination. The train ride really is special. I sat by an open window (there are only 3rd class carriages)... More
