This place is as good as the pictures. Immersed in nature on the river you hear birdsong and can swim in the river. The restaurant serves good food and the staff are friendly. Stay more than one night though. Most people come all this way and do t get to properly enjoy it. We stayed three! You can use the pool at the sister property next door.

This is a very special y property - we loved our stay! Our driver dropped us at Phutakien Pier and the long tail boat was already there, they are transferring guests to the resort regularly in the afternoon . Lots of free drinks and food in fridge. Nice restaurant. No mosquitoes in December. Nice pool at sister resort 5 mins walk away - you can return for free to the float house from the pier. Beutiful room and was very quiet. Reasonably priced massages.

Very good.

Very good stay, beautiful hotel and rooms. The restaurant is also good. Massage very expensive, then I don't expect to have to lie on the sweaty towel of a previous customer, really a no-go. Furthermore, this resort is definitely recommended!

Beautiful resort - don’t miss it!

A truly fantastic place. A wonderful setting, with excellent rooms and so, so relaxing. Great spa facilities and such lovely staff across the resort. Catering for so many people meant some of the dishes were slightly westernised, but totally understandable. Would 100% recommend this place. Also, some genuine commitments to sustainability which is fantastic as without nature, this place wouldn’t exist.

A very exciting and unique experience!! You are taken to the hotel on a long boat and the entire hotel is floating on pontoons. Rooms are very nice, large, and they each have their own balcony right on the river. The food in the restaurant was very good which is important since there are no other restaurants. You can take the boat back to the dock and visit many places for the day including the bridge over the river Kwai.

Amazing experience, we could not recommend more! While the property is very remote, it is worth the extra effort to get there since it is so beautiful. The hotel staff and locals make it easy to transport there as well, it just takes a bit more time than staying on the main land. Jumping in the river from your own bungalow and floating down was so fun and a visit to Erawan falls national park is a must. Would recommend for both nature lovers and someone who enjoys relaxing in a beautiful and unique scenery. Definitely worth the money.

We spent two nights at the Floathouse River Kwai. Our room was stunning, and we spent hours on our deck, enjoying the peaceful beauty of the river. From check in to departure, every staff member we encountered was courteous and strove to make our experience memorable. The food in the restaurant was excellent (we ate there 5x). The Floathouse offers many different excursions and activities, but my favorite times were spent just sitting on the deck, enjoying the sunshine and watching the river. The sound of the river moving under our Floathouse was soothing and the bed was super comfortable. For an incredibly unique experience, I highly recommend Floathouse River Kwai.

Luxury at affordable rates in a unique location

Fantastic place, definitely worth the (long) drive up the River Kwai. We only spent 1 night due to a tight driving itinerary — self-driving works well in this part of Thailand — but could have stayed 2-3. Very relaxing place, more things to do in the area and at the hotel than we had thought. Had we known that you can reach the hotel by longtail-boat, we would probably have left the car somewhere and transferred to the boat. Like this we were just woken up by the boat traffic on the river — the only notable downside of the Float House. Anyway, we warmly recommend this place to everyone who likes luxury at affordable rates in unique locations!

We stayed two nights at the Floathouse hotel over the river Kwai. It was a great experience overall. The hotel room has appropriate facilities as advertised. There was no pool but you can take a quick walk to the sister hotel Resortel to use the pool there. The environment was very quite and calming. The river Kwai is so beautiful when it rains. A variety of activity can be done but you have to pay additional fees for most of them. The restaurant has a number of menu (both Thai and Western food) and the taste was above average I would say. The staff were friendly and helpful (shoutout to Tony!). All in all, we enjoyed our stay there and would come back when circumstances met.
