Mr Boun Hom has half a dozen huts -- some with private bathroom, others with shared facilities -- spread across a fairly large slice of riverfront land. The restaurant is comfortable. Be sure to check out the massive snakeskin on the wall -- they caught it in Cambodia.

Really Good! - 21st January, 2009
We greatly enjoyed our stay here. It is a 2km walk from the landing and ''night club'' scene, but makes up for it with peace, quiet and privacy. There are beautiful views across the river. Staff are friendly, and Mr Hom's boat tour is well worth taking. Also has pedestal style toilets-a big help at my age!
