Thai Guesthouse

everything was superb. from the location, the cleanliness, and even the host was amazing. the host was more than glad to show you around and recommend places. he spoke great english! he even helped us call a motorbike taxi during our checkout day to get to the bus station. the place had a really cool and chill hangout spot upstairs. facilities and amenities were great as well, there were microwaves and free coffee, as well as washing machine at the back. very near to the night market, several weed shops, the train station and pretty much everything. there are bikes to rent making it easy for you to get by around. despite the location is in an alley, we, two female travellers, felt safe regardless. bonus: there's a cute puppy named Panda! again, overall, amazing. would definitely come back to see Panda again! <3 and would totally recommend the place to others

Nicky, the host, went above and beyond expectations – very helpful and obliging, lovely demeanour, calm, relaxed, flexible (e.g. with late checkout) and reliable – Tea and coffee (and kettle etc.) available for communal use in the reception area (which is very pleasant to sit in, with fish and cats, and great brochures full of good-value activities!) – Washing machine onsite, and our room had a warm annexe with a drying rack – Easy tuktuk ride away from many main attractions; Nicky helped arrange the tuktuks for a reasonable price – Several sites of interest (e.g. the Bridge over the River Kwai, the JEATH War Museum, a WWII cemetery) are within walking distance – Overall I would highly recommend spending a few days in Kanchanaburi, my partner and I fell in love with the place, not least On's Thai-Issan Vegan Restaurant, five minutes' walk from Nicky's place – their banana blossom salad is the best salad I've ever had, it made me emotional. In general there is so much to see and do, and two cafés in particular – Mina's and Mulberry Mellow – are couched in spectacular settings.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Thai Guesthouse! A gorgeous spot tucked down a little side street in Kanchanaburi - the location is great as it’s nestled right between the quieter & more busier/touristy side of town, so depending on what you feel like! Comfy beds, hang out area we throughly enjoyed & staff are so lovely & friendly!

Very clean, quiet and simple family homestay guesthouse located a few minutes walk from the main strip & train station. Convenience stores and lots of food options within a 5 minute walk. Nic greeted us and was a great host & help us to arrange economical transportation to local area temples and to the bus station for a trip to Erawan falls on our own schedule. He also gave us great suggestions for food which we tried and are recommended! We really enjoyed our stay here & we’re glad we chose Thai Guesthouse. Note its only about a 10 minute walk from the Kanchanaburi train station but the most convenient walking route requires you to cross a 4 lane road with a shrubbery barrier - transport from train cost us 80baht to the guesthouse. Bonus there is a very sweet puppy and friendly cat on the premise!

Note picked us up and dropped us off at the railway station with no fee. He welcomed us from the start and was helpful with advice re getting around Kanchanaburi and our future travel arrangements. The guesthouse is located down a quaint little alley that makes you feel you are in the country whilst being centrally located. A minutes walk to places to eat and drink and a couple minutes further to the war cemetery and museum, or night market and railway station. The room was very comfortable and clean, with a fridge and Note made sure we had bottled water each day. No tea and coffee in the rooms but plenty of free coffee and tea can be made in the little patio area just outside the rooms under cover and surrounded by pots and greenery. Such a lovely, calm setting. Comfy chairs and a little table outside our room to sit and chill in the cool. We loved it here.
