The first room we originally booked, the lock wasn't working, so we changed to a different cabin. After coming back from a meal out in Kanchanaburi, the plumbing in the wet room decided to play up so we changed to yet again another room! Despite that, the view over the River Kwai from our third - and final - cabin... More

Ok for one night. Sam's girlfriend wasn't keen on helping us, or it simply wasn't her day. More

If you are expecting better than pack packers standards don't stay at SAMs, it is cheap but you only get what you pay for. Complex is rather run down. We rented the Jasmin cabin and there were holes in the walls where termites had eaten through. Sheets were discolored with holes in them. There are no extras provided we even... More

Disappointed by this place. They didn't have our booking when we arrived (even though we booked over a week in advance) so we got a twin room rather than a double. It didn't have a view of any kind and was in more of a swamp than the river. The kids, dogs and lack of bedding were all a bit... More

I said we booked a room for three adults, twin beds with one extra bed. Later on we met the owner and he told us the mat is... More

I stayed at Sam's for a few days while in Kanchanaburi. It's nothing above basic but I knew that before arriving. Overall it was pretty clean and quiet, nice little stream that ran through the place. The food was good and reasonably priced and the rooms were enough for a good night's sleep. I stayed in an air con room... More

Location is fine, but the rooms NOT located on the water (i.e. in the wing called "AIR") are horrendous little hovels. Better to get a bungalow on the water, but be forewarned - though there are bathtubs in those, if you want to shower in them, the hose for the water is only long enough to reach your head if... More

I initially chose this place, due to a family room for 4 on the website. But when we arrived, the small bungalow for 4 was way TOO small, but luckily they were willing to give us 2 bungalows for the same price. Part of me really liked this place. The wooden huts over the swamp looked magical in the photos... More
