Confusing names for these two locations, (which are only 100m apart), with the small, wooden, lodge type accommodation being named hotel and the large concrete block location referred to as the resort. Both are pretty similar room-wise, with the hotel rooms being slightly smaller and cheaper but also definitely the cosier and friendlier of the two. The front entrance follows through to a balcony which looks out over the river behind, and rooms along that side of the building also have small individual balconies with the same view. Rooms are furnished in the same style as the resort, although a bit smaller, with Thai TV and a bathroom with hot shower. Most rooms are air-con, but interestingly some are converted to fan for the low season only. In high season only air-con is available. Quite why anyone would wish to construct two such similar places so closely together is a mystery but anyway. The hotel has great view from the balcony. You'll see plenty of spectacular chestnut-headed bee-eaters swooping over the river for insects -- they live in holes in the mud bank opposite. Friendly, with a decent level of English spoken, (staff that is not the bee-eaters). Computers are available in the lobby and WiFi in every room. Motorbikes are available for 200 baht per day. Their claim to fame is that King Carl Gustaf of Sweden actually stayed here with his family in 2003! The River House Restaurant is open daily 07:00-21:00 and does simple Thai and western dishes. Most plates are under 80B.
