2 Night Stay at Glory River Kwai Hotel
The Glory River Kwai hotel is an excellent hotel & very close to everything: 15 minute easy walk to the bridge & 25 minutes to town centre. Very clean, modern room - all with a balcony & sitting area overlooking the nice pool and the river beyond. Glad to give strong recommendation to stay here. Great staff too.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The reception was well prepared and fast. I got a room on the 3rd floor with a beautiful view on the river and the town on the opposite site. In The Glory one is not too far from the busy area of Kanchanaburi, but has also quietness around. Facilities are good, although the dining and breakfast aeea should have arrangements to isolate it from the sometimes windy conditions of the riverside. Anyway fully recommendable.

5 Night Stayh
5 night stay. A few nice restaurants within a couple of minutes walk, 10 minute walk will get you to the many bars and restaurants the other side of the river. A 30 minute walk will get you to the famous bridge. Exactly what we wanted, somewhere close to the nightlife but not too close.

Staying at Glory was an awesome experience. Location, staff and service were excellent. It is by the beautiful quiet River Kwai, not far away from the main attractions. Cycling around was the best way to see this place. Bicycles are provided for guest for free. The infinity pool and all the rooms facing the river are a plus. My family stayed for 3 nites totally enjoyed ourselves at Glory.
