Next door to the Suan Thip Michelin Guide restaurant is the Kalanan Riverside Resort, a boutique hotel overlooking the Chao Praya River. Situated in a landscaped garden setting with a canal connecting to the river it is reminiscent of colonial days with polished wooden floors, four poster bed with mosquito netting, and paneled walls. But with modern conveniences, for example the rain shower. With two swimming pools I had a choice. There were two restaurants, one indoor and the other outdoor overlooking the river’s edge. I tried the riverside restaurant for dinner because I knew the ABF would be indoors. The breakfast included khao tom or rice soup, western pastries, cereals, and eggs any style. Anyone wishing a hearty Thai style breakfast was offered rice, meat and vegetable stir fries, and fresh salad. I was able to sign up for a Thai cooking class with Chef Chukky. I was his only student. I’m sure all lessons aren’t private but it just worked out that way. First we went to the hotel herb garden to pick fresh lemongrass, basil, and flowers. Then, on the restaurant patio I learned to make green curry with pork and a fried fish salad with herbs and savory dressing. Chef taught me the subtle differences in style in Thai cuisine based on the ingredients. I had never fully appreciated before the delicate flavor of young ginger. I only spent one night at the hotel but I would go back definitely. The river in Nonthaburi is not like Bangkok down river with its busy boats and traffic. Nonthaburi has become a suburb of Bangkok but by the river you would never know it.

Quite piece of paradise, Friendly staff could not do enough for you. We had a Thai specialty treat every morning with our breakfast. Rooms were made every day with plenty of free bottled water. The Sunsets from our room, the pool and Waters Edge Restaurant were beautiful every day. Close enough to Bangkok to travel and enough activity on the river to keep you amused. We took long tail ride to the Ferry and the Resort organized weekend boat ride to Koh Kret Island and markets (no charge)

We stayed at this lovely hotel 3 times over a period of one month during our travels in Thailand & Vietnam. The location is stunning beside the Chao Phraya river with great views & an elevated restaurant right beside it. All the staff are charming & helpful remembering us each time we returned. We had lovely gifts of flowers & fruit in the room with an extra special one on Valentines Day. Breakfast has plenty of variety to suit all tastes with a fresh egg station. The breakfast dining room is separate from the main restaurant but also has river view & outside seating area. There are 2 pools one within the hotel rooms area & one on 2nd floor with views over river. Everything about this location is relaxing & beautiful

I enjoyed my stay in the riverside view room. Lovely staff, and our room was good. Bed very firm ... Breakfast ok, and the restaurant outside alongside the river was very good. great place to watch the sunset... Lovely spa and massages. Lovely free boat trip to kok kret, we'll worth a visit. Cons At the week ends the hotel became very busy with events, and we lost electricity several times, so I was unable to shower in the dark. There were some mis understanding with communication , as front of house and restaurant staff were unable to understand English. My translator app was invaluable. Overall a very pleasant stay.
