Hin
Tok River Camp @ Hell Fire Pass, Saiyoke, Hell Fire Pass
Peaceful surrounds that brings you close to nature but pulls you back
a bit with the A/C unit in each tent. The nature pool is wonderful
with cold river water. The loud cicadas give a jungle feeling to it
all and yet the birds in the morning makes every morning so sweet.
Check my review and travelogues at Virtual Tourist with pictures.

Fire Pass
The tent was fine, quite nice in fact, but would not stay here again.
We found the bar/receptionist surly, she had an attitude. Food was
dreadful. The worst we had in our whole Thailand trip. The price included
dinner and breakfast and was quite expensive - we expected a lot better.
At a loss to find it a romatic spot as per a prevoius reviewer. We
left as soon as we could. |

The staff were always friendly and helpful. Never once are they not
around when I needed anything. The sunset view from the restaurant
was excellent. Clean tent. Overall my stay was enjoyable and relaxing.
They need a better map to the Hellfire Pass though. |

Hin Tok River Camp @ Hell Fire Pass, Saiyoke, Hell
Fire Pass
We had a super time here! We were only there for 2 nights but would
have loved to stay longer! It is sooooo romantic. We couldnt believe
the view from the bar/restaurant-looking out onto the River Kwai and
the mountains in the distance - the sunsets are magical. We were the
only guests (we were there in low season) but they treated us like
King and Queen. The food is really good here. The whole camp is built
in a really cool natural/eco/rustic style using nearby resources.
The luxury tent was great fun - spacious and comfortable. The bathroom
is attached to the tent but is kind of outdoors, so you can have a
shower/go to the loo, and look up at the stars! All in luxury eco-friendly
style. Hintok River Camp is just a half hour walk from the famous
Hell Fire Pass Museum. You can walk along the route of the old rail
track and see the memorials left in rememberance. Hin Tok River Camp
is not more than an hour away from the town of Kanchanaburi, but you
have to look closely for the sign as its quite small. We overshot
it and ended up doing a 200km detour. Take my advice and bring a very
good map of this area with you, because not many taxi drivers can
speak english around here. I definately reccommend Hin Tok River Camp
for anyone who loves nature, peaceful surroundings, historical/wwII
points of interest, romantic sunsets, walking or biking, and the comfort
of a luxury tent with your own balcony. There is also a beautiful
dairy cow on site, grazing at the green grass all day long, who we
named Daisy !!!! This place is magical! |
