What's nearby

  • During World War 2, the Japanese used Allied prisoners of war to build a railway from Thailand to Burma so they could supply their army without the dangers of sending supplies by sea. Many prisoners died under appalling conditions during its construction, and the line became known as the 'Death Railway'. It was immortalised in David Lean's 1957 film 'The Bridge on the River Kwai' which centres around one of the line's main engineering feats, the bridge across the Kwae Yai river just north of Kanchanaburi. Although the film was shot in Sri Lanka, the Bridge on the River Kwai really exists, and still carries regular passenger trains from Bangkok as far as Nam Tok. For anyone interested in 20th century history, a visit to Kanchanaburi and the infamous Death Railway is a must. This page gives all the necessary information for train travel from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi, the Bridge on the River Kwai & Nam Tok, along with an overview of what there is to see in the area, including the Bridge Over the River Kwai, the Wampo (Wang Po) Viaduct and the museum at Hellfire Pass (Konyu Cutting). You can see the Bridge on the River Kwai as a day trip from Bangkok using the morning train out and afternoon train back, but it's better to make it a 2 or 3 day trip as there's a lot more to see than just the Bridge. For example, you could take the morning passenger train from Bangkok to Kanchanaburi on day 1, stay a night or two in Kanchanaburi, then take the afternoon train back on day 2 or 3, so you can visit Hellfire Pass (less well known than the Bridge, but not be missed) and travel the Death Railway through fantastic scenery over the dramatic Wampo Viaduct as far as its current terminus at Nam Tok.

This was such a pleasant stay. This was our second time around staying at Plakan. Everyone was always nice, helpful, and friendly. Definitely will stay there again in the future. Again, might not be that easy for those who doesn’t have a transportation, but the location isn’t too far from downtown.

I like quiet location and not too far from all the hustle and bustle. Well maintained facilities. Loved the room and amenities. Although I’m not sure about the water bottle situation. I was asked where the water bottles were at checked out. They should post clear instructions about what they want guests to do about water bottles.

It’s located on the quiet side of town. Staff and service were excellent. They were super attentive. The property was clean. Breakfast was excellent. The room was filled with good amenities with large space. The location might not be convenient for those without a car, but rather than that it’s a great hotel. Probably best for those who want quietness and peace. It would great for couples and families. Decoration is very cute with authentic old Thai stuff which makes you feel a lil nostalgic. Love it and will definitely stay there again.
