AI summaryOverwhelmingly positive, described as unforgettable and dreamy by many guests; unique location, friendly staff, activities and rooms combine for a highly recommended stay.

    Generally good housekeeping but occasional insect presence due to the wild riverside setting; some guests noted mosquitoes and the natural environment affecting perceived cleanliness.
  • Service9.2
    Staff repeatedly described as superb, friendly, welcoming and accommodating; one report noted staff did not intervene when children were noisy, but overall service was praised.

Beautiful hotel, wonderful staff, but the constant movement and boat noise make sleeping uncomfortable.

The hotel is beautiful, clean, and surrounded by amazing nature. The staff are very kind, friendly, and helpful. The facilities are unique and fun, and the overall atmosphere is peaceful and special. The floating rooms are a really interesting experience.

The biggest downside is that the floating room moves throughout the night, making it difficult to sleep comfortably. It gets even worse in the morning when boats start passing by, causing noticeable movement and a lot of noise. Unfortunately, this really affects the quality of sleep and overall comfort. Despite the beautiful location, the constant movement and morning boat traffic make it hard to get a proper night’s rest.

Location, Location, Location + very nice units

Dinner at the hotel's restaurant was unfortunately not tasty for the 6 of us, but due to the remote Location, there is no other option.....maybe a big late lunch before returning to the resort.

We liked that it is on the river, the staff was incredibly nice. I really loves the balcony and the view

There were big gaps on the floor which was scary because if we drop something that could fall in the river.

É immersa nella natura

Non mi hanno offerto nessun servizio extra, né tantomeno c’era una spa in loco come descritto nel sito

ประทับใจมากค่ะ อาหาร ห้องพัก พนักงานน่ารักค่ะ

การเดินทางเข้าที่พักตื่นเต้นมากได้ดื่มด่ำกับธรรมชาติสองข้างทาง การบริการทางเรือดีมาก การต้องรับ ตั้งแต่เรือจอด จนถึงห้องพักประทับใจมาก ว้าวกับห้องพักที่กว้างขวางสะอาด

ควรแนะนำผู้เข้าพักเกี่ยวกับข้อห้าม บางอย่างห้ามใช้เช่นการใช้โดรน ใสาถานที่พักเพราะที่พักค่อนข้างส่วนตัว และเงียบสงบ ไม่สมควรใช้โดรนเพืีออยากเห็นห้องอื่นๆ อันนี้ขอตินะคะ

Hôtel formidable. Le cadre est idyllique. On peut vraiment faire une coupure avec la ville. La chambre est spacieuse. Le lit confortable. Des petits coins détente partout autour dans la chambre mais aussi dehors. Vous pouvez faire des activités, tout est bien organisé par l’hôtel. Les massages sont au top. Vous pouvez utiliser la piscine de l’autre hôtel également car c’est le même groupe. La nourriture est bonne. Si vous prenez la demi pension, vous aurez un large choix de menu chaque jour. Sinon, les repas sont à la carte si besoin.

מלון קסום ואותנטי למי שמחפש שלווה על הנהר

מקום קסום על הנהר, חדרים מהממים, ספא מתוק ושלווה שאין כמותה

האוכל לא מספיק מגוון, אין חדר כושר אין טלפון להזמין שירות חדרים והכי חשוב שאין חלב צמחי במלון כך שמי שלא שותה חלב פרה צריך לדעת להביא איתו
