My lovely with and I spent three nights at this hotel when visiting Hpa-An and the surrounding area. I'd think very carefully before booking here as there's currently a lot of construction going on nearby. The hotel's eponymous river view is, in fact, being rapidly eaten up by the building work between it and the waterfront. Sooner or later they'll have to think about changing their name!

Breakfast was included in our rate of $24 a night but wasn't great. Greasy fried noodles were about as good as it got. It's served on the rooftop from where the views are pretty good if you can ignore the construction site noise.||||The hotel can organise onwards bus travel for you.

If it's later then chances are the building work will be over and hotel will once again be a good...
