The guest house is by the river and has a lovely garden. The rooms are basic and clean and the food is very good. more

This place is pretty good. The garden out the back by the river is lovely, the rooms are basic but adequate (though the sheets are pretty worn they do seem clean), and the rates are really low. However, the staff is a little grumpy, they can be nice and they can be horrible, service in the restaurant can be slow... more

Located in the main tourist and backpacker area, Jolly Frog is an easy budget choice in Kanchanaburi. The guesthouse has a huge, busy restaurant that serves over 200 dishes at prices much cheaper than other local restaurants. They also serve great homemade bread and buns. In back along the river are many rooms that overlook a nice garden area with... more

Hi all, I have stayed here a number of times and I have never been disappointed. Yes, the rooms are basic but clean, the food is great and the service has always been very good during my stays there. However, what I like about the Jolly Frog most is the beautiful, well kept garden which is great to chill out... more

It was extremely cheap, around 250 baht per night, so at the time this was less than £3! the rooms were basic-bed, cold shower. But clean, and secure, what else do you need. Very popular with backpackers so loads of people. Good open garden area with hammocks. Food at restaurant pretty good-eat fish dish! Do really good trips, good value.... more

Jolly Frog is a nice backpakcers place. It`s very friendly and really cheap - we paid 200 Baht/ night. Rooms are simple and clean - but for 200 Bahts you can`t expect 5star. Anyway every room has a simple bathroom and shower. Jolly Frog has a great view from the garden, some hammocks hanged, own restaurant, and internet cafe. Beware... more

We arrived in Kanchanaburi and were dropped off at this popular guesthouse. The rooms are basic, but the dining area is big and sociable, with movies shown each night. The guesthouse has a nice lounging area with hammocks and deckchairs. I recommend the cooking course at nearby Apple's guesthouse. more
