    Definitely nitpicking because this was a great stay. The bed was a little bit hard for me (but if you prefer a firm mattress you’ll be fine) and sometimes you went to the front desk to find the owner’s son playing computer games.

    I had a great stay here! The location was perfect, walking distance from everything in the Old Quarter and right between the river and the main street. My room was quite large especially for a solo traveller and very good value. The family that runs the guesthouse is very sweet and helpful. The laundry service was the quickest I’ve experienced so far. definitely recommend this guesthouse if you’re planning a trip to Luang Prabang!

    A litte fridge in the tea coffee station on the deck would be super helpful or a board and a knife to cut up fruit!

    We loved Apple guest house, it's located right near all the action in Luang Prabang and so you can walk everywhere! The room was tidy clean and tastefully decorated. We loved that there was a shared deck/lounging area with tables and chairs and tea and coffee. Good for sitting up doing late night bookings and blogging while the kids slept. The cute family who owns it was super helpful and obliging. Sometimes you'd pop down and the young son was manning the desk playing computer games, but it didn't mattter as someone who could help you was not far away!

    Conveniently located within walking distance of the river and Main Street. Clean room with plenty of hot water and good shower pressure. Comfy beds and great AC and a fan too. Staff were friendly and we left our luggage until we were picked up late afternoon. Highly recommend and would stay again.

    We also stayed in the smaller room for a night and it was also quite nice but not nearly as nice as the bigger room. No real complaints though, all the rooms were nice

    Such a cute guesthouse with really kind staff and a great location. We got the bigger room and it had a balcony and nice bathroom and large bed, well worth the upgrade. Also included free water (hot or cold) from dispensers

    leaving!

    We loved everything about Apple guesthouse! we were welcomed warmly and helped with everything. The location is incredible, 1 minutes walk from the Mekong river bank, just a couple of minutes walk from the temples and monasteries. We had a triple room. the beds were super comfy and the room was spotlessly clean with a nice modern bathroom with hot water. We had well functioning aircon, ceiling fan, and fridge. in the room we had an information pack which was excellent- describing how to access all the sights, a walking tour, as well as recommending local restaurants and businesses. There is a lovely shared terrace where you can make tea/ coffee with filtered water to refill your bottles. We also used their laundry service which was very reasonably priced. The location is very near a range of cafes and restaurants, there is something for every budget. we stayed 4 nights - we wanted to stay longer but they were booked out! we highly recommend Apple Guesthouse.

    Wifi was a bit temperamental, but might be due to usage from other rooms

    We had a relaxing & restful stay run by a wonderful friendly family who speak excellent English - we arrived late but the owner helped us settle in and kindly let us sort payment & paperwork once we had showered after our long journey from Phonsavan (9hrs not 6....and very dusty!) The lovely couple were always ready to help with questions & advice, they booked our minivan to Nong Khiaw including tuktuk pick up (3hr journey) and generally a pleasure to chat too An extensive folder is provided in the room with trips & transport options (Slow Boat advice - allow 30 mins in tuktuk to get to the pier, in addition to arriving 1hr before departure time) Nice bathroom, very quiet area and comfortable room, large bed, efficient AC, free water refill and tea & coffee available Saffron Coffee & The Chess have really nice Western breakfasts (Smoothie & Yoghurt bowls were huge!) and great coffee to start the day Short walk to Night Market, can close around 9pm so go early We hired a scooter through them to visit the Kuang Si waterfalls and Buffalo Dairy (whatsapp in advance so they can manage group size - it's fab brushing a friendly Buffalo & ice cream is delicious!) Very quick laundry turnaround in less than a day and the freshest smelling in our SEA trip yet ~ thank you

    Do not stay in room number 9. Unfortunately, our room was placed right above a restaurant which would be cooking food from 8am in the morning until 9pm at night. Smoke and cooked food smells would travel into our room and the only way we could get rid of the smell was to tape cling film over the windows and blast the air conditioning to push the smell out. I wasn’t able to dry my hair in the room as the smell was so intense and had to inconveniently do this on the communal balcony. We did ask to move rooms but the guesthouse was fully booked so had to improvise with the cling film. Other than this issue, it would have been a perfect stay!

    Jimmy and Nou are the loveliest hosts ever and the rest of the housekeeping staff at Apple guesthouse were amazing. Someone was always available at reception helping the guests and they even helped us book our transfer to the train station. The location is absolutely perfect, nestled away from busier roads and very quiet. We loved the character of the guesthouse and our room and enjoyed the free tea and coffee on the communal balcony.

The location is central and convenient. I liked the terrace area where there is also free tea and water. The room itself was clean and had good working AC and a fan.

    The room was a little dark to our liking, but that seems to be common in Luang Prabang.

    The location was fantastic. Tucked in a little alley right by the river. Close to coffee shops, restaurants, and the alms ceremony. The owners were incredibly attentive and kind! We really felt taken care of.
