We stayed for 2 nights as a family and booked 2 rooms.
The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are spacious, and the breakfast was wonderful.
The pool was under renovation (we knew about it), and we went on some trips instead.
Overall, it was a great experience!
I went to Kanchanaburi for a few days during a month long Thailand vacation and had a great time. The Glory Hotel was a great choice. Its staff was great. It was a very comfortable room and the location was quite good. I’d definitely stay there again. Breakfast was good and filling.
The property is a little out of the way but very nice. It does not have a restaurant or a spa. It would be nice to have more amenities. The staff is amazing and very helpful!
Great location in the River. Slightly isolated out of town but staff very helpful in getting us a taxi. Breakfast was ok but the eggs , bacon etc was cold
There is no restaurant or bar at this hitel
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.
Lovely hotel, staff didn’t speak much English but did their upmost to help you. Wouldn’t let me carry my bags, room overlooked the river and close to the tourist attractions.
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 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.
Mooi hotel, moderne ruime kamers met zicht op de rivier. Ontbijt is ok. Ontvangst was eerder koel maar is vermoedelijk te wijten aan het feit dat de medewerkster weinig of geen Engels sprak
