A very good place to stay
We were very happy with the Tara.The best value in Thailand so far.The rooms were spacious.To be crtical some of the pillow cases were very discoloured and old.The pad thai for thirty bahts was excellent.Within easy reach of the station and river kwai.

A very good clean guesthouse.The food in the restaurant underneath the rooms has exceptionally cheap meals of excellent quality.Pad thai at 35 bahts.Within short distance of the train station and a good walk to the River Kwai.

Basis accommodation good enough for a couple night
There is practicaly no such a thing as a reception as the restaurant staff/bar attendant has finally found our booking displayed on a wall board and handed out the keys.The place is located on the main road full of the the other similar places where the expats are hanging around.If it is what you like then the Guest House is exactly what you need giving you the decent value for money, or as in our case, a basic accommodation for two nights sleep after a quite a exhausting adventure we have had in Myanmar.On a positive side the food served downstairs was quite decent and cheap.

Good B&B, close to the bridge
This is a perfectly good and clean B&B, close to the Bridge and lots of eating options near by. There is also a good cafe attached with tasty, well priced meals and drinks. A good base to stay in Kanchanburi.

Convenient hotel
Only spent one night here therefore cannot comment on facilities too much. The bed however was very comfy and the hotel was in a convenient location to see things such as The Death Railway, Hellfire Pass and the Erawan Falls. Was able to book a tour to both things through the travel company located at the hotel. Toilet and shower in same small room with no window which was slightly claustrophobic but no problem and shower was good.

Good for Bridge etc
Good place with access to a pool. It is not modern, very few are in this town but sufficient for one or two nights. Not an area I will return too, but if your going for the Bridge etc a good location and OK for one or two nights. Restaurant is good, spoke to a local ex-pat who states it's the best in town, eat there only and was good but no others tried by us

Very welcoming staff. Room large, clean & comfortable. Bedrooms off the main road so quiet. Bonus that guests could use neighbouring hotels pool. Only downside was that breakfast was not included in the rate, even though a good restaurant was attached to the hotel

Tara BB kanchanaburi
This is a small run guest house. It was very comfortable and you had use of the pool at the back which belongs to the other guest house (noble) which was nice to cool of in. Also you get a lovely view of the river. To walk to the river Kwai bridge is around 20 mins but is very hot so may be best getting a local motorbike taxi. We also rented a local taxi for the day upto hellfire pass along with other stops and dropped us of at the train station at Nom Tok to get the train back to river Kwai bridge where the taxi waited for us and took us back to the hotel. This costs 1400 baht for the day. Be warned it takes nearly two hours on the train back but worth it as the views were good.

Perfect base for Quai experience
Tara bed and breakfast was perfect for our short stay in Kanchanaburi. We simply needed a base from which we could navigate our own way to Hellfire Pass/Museum, death railway and Bridge over the River Quai and it worked well for this. The rooms were large, great AC, wet room, two free bottles of water each day. It was clean and spacious and the bed was huge and comfortable- apart from the dip in the middle (two beds pushed together). Staff were smiley and friendly and helped us very much with giving clear instructions on using public transport to navigate our trip. They also easily organised a 180TB minibus ride for us to Mo Chit in Bangkok for our flight to Chiang Mi. free wifi and a cheap breakfast as well! Situated at the end of a street of bars and hotels/hostels: a good 20 minute walk to the Bridge and about 10-15mins to night market.

Una buena sorpresa
Engaña a primera vista, ya que parece muy humilde. Luego uno llega a la habitación y descubre una sala grande, limpia, con todo lo necesario, muebles tradicionales y un ambiente estupendo. Además, el restaurante que se encuentra a la entrada es fantástico (gran oferta, todo muy rico y muy barato). Está bastante cerca de todo lo interesante pero en una zona tranquila.

Hotel pas cher.....
L hôtel est a un prix très raisonnable ,donc le reste va avec ,la chambre est propre mais la" fenêtre",si l on peut appeler cela une fenêtre donne sur un couloir très passant donc nous n avons pas ouvert les rideaux du week end . Le restaurant de l hôtel plutôt bon mais tenu par un jeune homme vraiment mal aimable . Sinon hôtel bien situé ,pas très loin de la gare, du marché et du pont de la rivière Kwai.

Großes Zimmer aber unfreundliche Mitarbeiter
Wir mussten beim Check-In lange warten, ohne das uns jemand gesagt hat wie lange es noch dauert oder mit uns gesprochen hat. Die Lampen im Zimmer haben teilweise nicht funktioniert, aber ansonsten hat es für einen Kurzaufenthalt gepasst. Was uns gestört hat war das Zimmer ohne Fenster und Tageslicht.

좋은 서비스
저렴한 가격에 좋은 서비스를 제공한다. 숙소 안에 의자도 넓찍하게 있고 책상도 있어서 노트북을 사용하기 좋았다. 개인적으로는 콰이강의 다리나 연합군 묘지 등을 걸어갈 만한 위치라는 점이 가장 좋았다. 주인분께 방콕으로 돌아가는 롯뚜도 부탁하면 예약을 대행해주시고 숙소 앞에서 롯뚜를 탈 수 있다. 식당도 같이하는 곳이라 식사를 할 수 있으나 먹어보지는 않아 맛은 모르겠지만 몇몇 여행객들은 줄곧 식사를 하였다.

너무 별로인 타라 비엔비입니다.
생수 받아 직접 냉장고에 넣다가 냉장고 문이 엄청 뻑뻑해 그만 하나가 깨졌습니다. 여긴 생수는 유리병이에요. 어렵게 다 치우고 나갔다들어오니 깨진 병 값으로 20밧을 달랍니다. 어이가 없지요. 품목에도 없는 생수병까지 돈을 달라고하다니,매우 불친절합니다. 수영장은 노블게스트하우스 수영장을 같이 사용할 수 있어요. 물어보니 같은 주인이라 가능하답니다. 하지만 너무나 락스냄새가 진동을 해서 수영을 할 수가 없어요. 식당 음식도 별로입니다. 아침에 복도에서 스텝이 빗자루질하면서 떠드는 소리에 깹니다. 환기도 잘 안되고 답답하고, 샤워기도 고장났는지 잘 안되요. 물병이며 있는 집기류들 다 장농 위에 치워 놓고 있었네요. 있는 동안 아주 불쾌했습니다
