• A good stay

  I spent two nights at Sugar Cane 2 in February: it's very close to "The Bridge", but still walking distance to where the bulk of guesthouses and bars are. The room was fairly pleasant (I had the room on the raft with air-con), very basic (i.e. no furniture besides the bed) but clean and very bright. The bathroom was ok too, even though hot water was constantly coming and going. Staff was friendly and helpful. I didn't particularly like the restaurant but I tried it just once (and maybe stumbled in a not-so-lucky choice).

• Wonderful

  Didn't stay at the guesthouse but ate at the restaurant two times. Best lemon juice of my whole trip! Super-friendly staff, wonderful setting.

• Beautiful setting, clean & comfortable rooms

  The setting here is perfect. Beautiful little bamboo huts nestled around lush gardens and it's right on the banks of the river. I paid 200B for a large room with huge bed, a fan and private bathroom. All very clean and airy. Nice cafe area where you can sit and watch the boats along the river. It's about a 15 minute walk into the main travellers centre but there are bars & restaurants scattered along the way. The nicest place I've stayed in on my trip so far.

• A nice relaxing spot

  I stayed in one of the raft rooms which was very comfortable. It wasn't spotless, but it wasn't dirty either. As others have mentioned, the walls are pretty thin, but I didn't find noise to be a real issue. One note - you may find mosquito coils helpful - they are readily available from most shops. I was there during the River Kwai festival and I think my room cost 550B as the site says here. The staff was very friendly - the food was average ... probably better to eat from the market or in town. The guesthouse is an easy 10-15 minute walk from the bridge. Given the opportunity, I'd stay there again.

• Peaceful and friendly, nice fried rice!

  I have stayed in Sugar Cane 2 on a couple of occasions once about 4 years ago once recently. I like to stay in the A frame houses at the back. Very quite and little river noise. Think I paid 500B last time. Basic facilities and the TV was more or less useless -- but who cares about TV? Hot water was hot air-con was cool. Staff were helpful and friendly -- what more do you want? Will be back in January to use Sugar Cane 2 as a base for river kayaking.

• Perfect Place

  My boyfriend an I had one of the floating rooms in "Sugar Cane II" (near the bridge). The room was very clean with a private balcony right on the river so you can have a refreshing jump in the water:-) The walls on the "House-boat" are a little bit thin, but we had no bigger problems. We thank the very friendly Burmese staff, who made the week in Kanchanaburi unforgettable -- your food was one of the best we got in Thailand!!!! Nearly every day there is a visit from "Toi's Tours" who organise nice excursions in the surrounding. The location of Sugar Cane II is very relaxing, safe and quiet, Kanchanaburi-Town is just a 20 minute walk or a five minute ride in a songtheaw. The region is very low-priced and has a good infrastructure but it's not overrun!

• Idyllic location and friendly staff

  I was so sorry to leave this place! Take note that there are two Sugar Canes (1 and 2). The latter is newer and further north nearer the bridge, but I stayed in the older one, in one of the floating rooms on the river. I don't have a bad word to say about it. Even had a security guard manning the gates at all times! The owner was one of the most helpful and genuine people I met in Thailand. Also recommend the day tours that they organise for guests. Would love to think I'll go back there.

• Clean, comfortable, and relaxing

  I stayed in one of the floating rooms. The room was spotless and the linen clean. The balcony -- right on the water -- was a comfortable place to relax. Bring a good dose of tolerance for noise from passing boats during the day and evening and from voices in adjoining rooms; I was able to tune out these distractions. Most staff were friendly and helpful. I plan to return often.
