Delicious Restaurant Experience

“I truly enjoyed the restaurant at VN Guesthouse. The food was really good, offering a splendid mix of Thai, Burmese, and European dishes. Each meal was cooked to a high standard, and I was thrilled with the prices. I often opted for classic Thai curries, which were simply the best I've tasted. The setting adds to the experience, as you can relax with a view of the river while enjoying your meal.” view full review

Cozy and Comfortable Rooms

“During my stay, I had a raft room with air conditioning which was a delight. The room was basic yet cozy, providing everything I needed for a comfortable stay. I loved having my own private balcony overlooking the water, where I could unwind after a day of exploring. The room also had ample storage for my belongings, helping keep things organized during my trip.” view full review

Adequate Bathroom Facilities

“The bathroom in my raft room featured hot water, which was a pleasant surprise. Although it required a bucket for flushing, it was clean and functional. I appreciated that they maintained hygiene standards even in a simpler setup. I also noticed that it had a drying rack for laundry, making it convenient for travelers like myself who prefer to wash and dry their clothes while on the go.” view full review

Charming Atmosphere

“My evenings at VN Guesthouse were enhanced by the atmosphere along the river. The chill-out music playing while I lounged on the terrace made for a perfect backdrop as the sun set. I could relax on the pillows and soak in the tranquil vibes, making it a truly lovely experience. Watching the monitor lizards swim nearby added an element of nature that made every meal special.” view full review

I had a pretty good stay at VN Guesthouse. The room had a lovely riverside view, and the terrace was perfect for chilling out after a day of exploring. However, the WiFi was spotty, and the room layout was a bit strange, making it feel smaller than it really was. Overall, it’s a solid choice in a great location, but there are definitely some things to work on.

The room was clean and neat, with a lovely riverside view. However, the layout was odd, with a lot of dead space, which made moving around a bit tricky. The aircon worked like a charm, but the natural light situation was lacking, although there were plenty of lamps to brighten things up.

The staff were friendly and helpful, accommodating requests quickly. They even arranged laundry service, which was nice. However, I wasn’t a fan of the scooter rental policy requiring a passport deposit, which felt a bit excessive.

My stay at VN Guesthouse was pretty chill overall. The riverside views were amazing and the staff were super friendly. However, the loud music from a nearby bar made it tough to get a good night's sleep, especially late into the night. Still, I enjoyed the laid-back vibe and would consider coming back for that view and the good food.
