Nice resort by the River Kwai”

It is a very nice hotel/resort by the River Kwai. Wonderful ambience along the river where you have breakfast. The location, about half way between the River Kwai Bridge and the restaurant and bar area where most turist enjoy themselves in the evening, is obviously very good. The room standard is way beyond what you would have expected at this price. So is the staff performance. Very nice experience! I would definitely book this resort/hotel next time I come to Kanchanaburi.

4 nights in Kanchanaburi ”

I booked accommodations at Good Times Resort, based on the reviews, and I was not disappointed. The property is beautiful, and located right on the river. I had a huge room, right on the lagoon. The restaurant is outstanding. The staff is friendly, and quite a few of them speak very good English. The internet is fast and reliable. The property also owns a tour company, which is extremely convenient, as you can book all of your tours (and transportation) through the front desk. I really enjoy the convenience of being able to bill everything to my room, and pay (only one time) with my travel rewards credit card upon checkout. You can rent a motorbike at the front desk, and there is a tuk tuk driver, on staff, who is available 24/7. The property is only a little more than one kilometer walk from the famous bridge over the river Kwai. It is only a short walk to many bars, cafés, restaurants, 7-11, etc. Good Times has an outstanding reputation among the other local businesses. Whenever I told someone I was staying there, they were always happy to hear it. The other guests that I met also enjoyed their stay. Good Times Resort exceeded my expectations. It is truly an ideal accommodation. I highly recommend this property, and would definitely stay there again.

Outstanding Customer Care”

I stayed here for 5 nights from 1st - 6th November 2014. The staff were very friendly and made me feel at home as soon as I arrived. They were very knowledgeable about the local area and gave me lots of help and advice regarding visiting nearby places of interest. My room was comfortable, on the first floor with balcony looking down to the swimming pool. The restaurant is on the banks of the River Kwai. The loaction is between the Kwai Bridge and the Kanchanaburi War Cemetary with easy access to the train and bus stations. I preferred to travel to and from these places by tuk tuk or motorbike taxi which was around 50 baht each way. I would highly recommend Good Times Resort and would definately go back.

Very nice stay, surely recommendable!”

We had a very pleasant stay at the Good Times Resort Kanchanaburi. The owner and staff were very friendly and helpfull. Breakfast and diner are very good, you can choose from Western dishes to Thai dishes. All great. The location of the resort is next to the river Kwai, a very nice spot. From the resort you can cross the river by boat. Facilities of the resort are good, modern and clean. If we go back to Kanchanaburi, we would definitely go back to the Good Times Resort.

Excellent 3star hotel in good location.”

First time in this area and perfect for a 4night stay. Exceptionally friendly and helpful staff. Bonus is that the hotel has a travel agency and arranged well run tours which are brilliant value for money. Breakfast is of 3star standard ,nothing exciting but the restaurant at night is exceptional with good quality Thai and Western food in a lovely setting overlooking the River Kwai. There are different standards of room but choose according to your budget as all are very clean and have good quality linen and towels. If there are any problems the hotel owners are always on site and are great people who work very hard with the customer satisfaction as the number 1 priority! If we return to the area the Good Times Resort will definitely be our choice of a place to stay!

Best value for money, can't be faulted”

As soon as my partner and I arrived we knew we were going to have a good stay. The staff are so welcoming and friendly, it's like you are their close friends staying with them. The rooms are simple yet clean and comfortable as well as spacious. Although there was renovation works going on they did not interfere at all with our stay. It was so relaxing to sit by the pool or at the restaurant next to the river. The food menu is vast, delicious and inexpensive. It is centrally located to the attractions within kanchanaburi such as the.river kwai bridge and war cemetery. It's about a 15-20min walk to the kanchanaburi train station where the night markets are also held. They also have their own travel agent so booking tours is no hassle.

Warm stay”

Lovely staff. Got small swiming pool, pond and garden, with restaurant facing river kwai which it is good to dine there at night or in the morning. Love the banana and coconut shake. Breakfast is lovely and have plenty of choices. We stayed in room #105. The room is little bit small 20 sqm but enough to fit in a large luggage and 2 backpacks. Wifi there though not so good/stable but i feel my dtac 4g there also not so good either, may be it's telco's fault we can't blame the resort. About 20 min walk to river kwai bridge. You can rent a car nearby for 1300 baht a day and half a tank of petrol which cost 400 baht for 300km drive. Quiet room as the room is not too near to the river which there may have party boats during weekend.

Relax by the river, like visiting old friends”

We loved this resort, and looking forward to returning. Every member of the staff who either of us encountered was so friendly, helpful and professional - front desk, housekeeping, and restaurant especially. We felt like we were visiting friends (very hospitable friends). The location is right along the river, and usually had a breeze, which helped since we stayed during the warmer time of year. The resort is set back from the road enough so that you don't hear the traffic, but close enough so that you can easily walk out and find food and shops. 7-Eleven is just a short walk. Breakfast by the river was a great way to start the day, especially when there was a nice morning breeze. The rooms were simple, clean and comfortable. Walking around, it seems like almost every room has either a view of the river, the pool or the small lake in the middle of the resort. Bathrooms have open shower common in Thai resorts, and basic, but very nicely done. Standard heat in the showers, but while we were there, temps were warm enough that heat wasn't really needed. Air conditioning worked great, and could be adjusted so that it did not blow directly down on the bed. As long as we closed the bathroom door, the room stayed cool for a long time. Internet worked great, and easy to connect to compared to some others in the area. TV was good, but with IPM service, almost all channels in Thai, and only one or two in English - both movies. Can't wait to return, and bring others with us!

calm hours from the frenzy of Bangkok”

I did not come to kanchanaburi for the river kwai. just to mellow out a bit without a party atmosphere. at Good TImes i could have coffee (or beer) while sitting by the river at the restaurant or casually on my own in the grass. The staff found me a moped for 200Bt fot the day (normally 300bt) most had a smile and sense of humour. oldest gent demanded tipping after /complimentary drive back to the train station. besides him it was a quiet delight. nicely maintained grounds and fish area

A Hidden Gem”

The Good Times is hidden away down a track off the road only 500 yards from the Bridge over the River Kwai. It is family run and you've great personal service. Nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are all new and finished to a high standard. The location Is right on the river so mosquito spray is essential but we had no issues. The pool is small but well finished and the grounds are currently being landscaped and improved. There is a very large fish pond where you can feed the fish and enjoy the view. The owner is still improving the resort; a new building containing 6 rooms is being constructed but it did it impact on our stay. If you want a large clean comfortable room with great personal service then this is the place. We will definitely return.

Loved it here! ”

This resort was amazing for our 3 day stay in Kanchanaburi. Helpful staff, great tour options and the place was spotless. Extremely close to 7-11 and some great western food choices (if you're into that sort of thing!). Walking distance to bridge over river Kwai. We also enjoyed an afternoon at the restaurant when our room wasn't quite ready for check in. Very pleased!

My 'go to' accomodation' central Kanchanaburi”

After visiting Kanchanaburi dozens of times over the years, I have settled on Good Times as my resort of choice. You've got a great location next to the river, an excellent restaurant that serves a wide selection of Thai and Western cuisine, a swimming pool, friendly staff, and modern air-con rooms which are clean and well maintained. There is plenty of off street parking, and it's only a short walk to all the restaurants and nightlife, and a slightly longer walk to the famous bridge and walking-street. Nowhere else in town offers so much.

AWESOME- STAY HERE”

LOVE THIS PLACE!! STAY HERE! FRIENDLY AND WELCOMING STAFF. AN AWESOME RESTAURANT ATTACHED SITUATED ON THE RIVER. NICE & CLEAN ROOMS. THERES NOTHING WE COULD'VE ASKED MORE OF. STAFF HAPPY TO HELP YOU BOOK ANYTHING- TOURS, BIKES, ETC. BEST PLACE IVE STAYED IN THAILAND AND IVE BEEN TRAVELING A MONTH. THE ROOM & BATHROOM WAS VERY SPACIOUS. ROOM SERVICE EVERYDAY. MORE THAN VALUE FOR ITS PRICE. STAYED FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK. IF I EVER CAME BACK TO KANCHANABURI, ID STAY HERE. WISH THERE WERE MORE HOTELS/RESORTS LIKE THIS FOR THE VALUE ALL OVER THAILAND.

Excellent time at Good Times Resort !!!”

The resort is excellent with well cleaned rooms . The staff can speak in English. Restaurant overlooking river Kwai is a perfect place to dine at . Complimentary breakfast served in the next morning had huge variety of things. Moreover they have rental bikes and cars . So it is a perfect place to live in Kanchanaburi .

Good Times for real. ”

Once I got to the hotel the Good Times staff just made everything easy, which is what I wanted. They're a pretty good deal. The restaurant is reasonably priced but pretty bland, although you get a great view of the river while eating. Getting to the hotel from the bus station was a bit of a challenge though. You have to take a sketchy taxi-like-things without a meter. I was exhausted from having too much fun in Bangkok the night before, and I wound up just letting some guy grossly overcharge me because no better alternatives seemed available. However, Good Times runs a minibus direct from Bangkok and I think I could've just booked direct to the hotel. So, if you sign up through Agoda and you're coming from BKK I suggest calling Good Times about transit options.

Great resort - loved it! ”

Great place to stay in Kanchanaburi. Not so expensive and very clean and comfortable!! The staff were very friendly and speak English very well (compared to other places) It's only a little bit far from the river Kwai bridge to walk, but you can always order a tuktuk/motor to take you there. The restaurant was very good, both in the evening as for the free breakfast!

What a view”

This place has a very nice view of River Kwai. The room is nice and clean, staffs are friendly and there's a variety of breakfast course. I would recommend this resort to anyone that come to Kanchanaburi.

A Hidden Treasure”

Having been to Kanchanaburi many times previous,this place is a great find.From 1st impressions of being met at reception, this resort is great value.Breakfast is good but the restaurant is really good with an excellent menu of Thai and European style foods at superb prices. The pool is clean and rooms have plenty space. A certain return for us as we all enjoyed our break.The staff were very helpful.

New hotel with a great restaurant”

Only stayed 1 night as but were happy with the restaurant. It is next to the river and has fantastic food. The local and the international food was all great. The only area they need work is the dessert. The Staff at the resort had good english and were very helpful. The location is great and you can even get dropped off or picked up by long tail boat. (drivers may not know were it is as it is new) Me managed to tell the driver were it was located in my limited Thai. The long tail boats in Kanchanaburi are Ferraris of long tail boats. (Quick). Would stay at the hotel again and definitely go back for the restaurant.

Amazing!! ”

Amazing hotel/resort, location fantastic with it being right on the river, room was lovely and clean, and the restaurant was brilliant with you sitting looking out onto the river Kwai, value for money was unreal!!! I couldn't believe how cheap and the quality of the food was brilliant with others who don't stay at the resort coming to enjoy good food!
