What User likes about Honeypot Guest House:
We had an amazing meal here after a long day of seeing with our Tuktuk driver. The curry and rice dishes tasted authentic and made at home. A cold tiger beer rinsed everything. I appreciate the No-Nonsense style. It is not designed to provide hipsters or excessively touristic. It's just a tasteful restaurant that's clean and well occupied, and happens to make excellent food! The view of the river is the right winner... View all feedback.

On a face of it a basic restaurant by the side of the road but with a lovely view over the river below. Excellent food and service and great value for money.
