Tamarind Guesthouse

Comfy, clean rooms in a quiet location on the river and short walk to restaurants and shops. Close to train station and easy stroll to night market. Bus station is a bike taxi ride away if you've got bags. Worth paying a little extra for a room with A/C. I spent first night in raft room with only a fan - incredibly hot and stuffy. Staff speak a little English but were very smiley and always happy to help. Nice communal area to sit in and enjoy the peace and quiet. Would stay again and happy to recommend.

I lived on a raft. Room have enough space. There is no breakfast, but you can find enough food close by. And there is a 24 hours open shop straight next to the hotel gate. View from the raft is perfect. You are living at the main tourist party road, but hotel is far enough from the street that you do not hear the screaming of drunk horny tourists.

The place has all the facilities you'll need. They are supe accomodating and friendly. The place is quiet, yet at meters from the bustle of the touristy road, and near the train station. Complimentary coffee, water, biscuit... lovely seating area in front of the river and a helpfull, relaxed staff make this place a really lovely stay.

Everything! The location was central for walking, but away from the busy street so very quiet. The facilities were extremely clean and comfortable. We loved the comunal area for eating. It was a beautiful view of the river. We booked a double with a fan and we were so happy to have operable windows with screens. The fan was perfect, not too loud and very efficient. We hardly needed hot water because the weather had us wanting cold, but there was an easy to use hot water system for the shower. Free refillable drinking water, coffee and chocolate in the morning was also deeply appreciated. The hosts were available if we needed anything but left us to do our own thing. They really respected our privacy in their space. The value was perfect for what we received. One of the BEST stays we’ve had on Booking.

Nice room, helpful staff. Tea and coffee are available through the day. Lovely seating area overlooking the river. Walking distance to the bridge, the market and the musueum - I really recommend all of these.
