My stay at Navalai River Resort was an enjoyable experience overall. The location near the river provided easy access to various attractions and a beautiful view, though I did find the transfer arrangement from the airport to be quite pricey. The hotel offered a clean and comfortable room, and the staff were exceptionally friendly and attentive.

I had a pleasant stay at Navalai River Resort, enjoying the great location right by the river and the convenient access to local amenities. The room I stayed in was clean and had a beautiful view, though noise from the street could be a nuisance if you're not high enough up. While the breakfast had a decent selection, it wasn't included in my package, which was a bit of a let-down. Overall, I'd say it's good value for a city hotel, especially with the riverside view.

I had a lovely week at Navalai River Resort with my family. The room was spacious and the balcony view of the river was absolutely stunning! While the pool was nice, some noise from the nearby bar did disrupt our sleep a bit, especially since we were at the back of the hotel. Overall, it’s a great location near restaurants and the river 🚤.
