    There were mosquitoes in the room one night, the hotel could provide anti mosquito plug-in devices or a mosquito net over the bed. I cannot not like the free minibar given the heat, just suggesting that instead of 4 daily cans of coke and pepsi, it would be nice to have the zero sugar versions and maybe vary with a juice or two..

    Beautiful, old quarters-like hotel, shiny dark wooden floors and antique furniture. Very comfortable bed with a remote to choose angles. Balcony with a rattan table and armchairs facing the Mekong promises many magical moments. Everyone was very kind, thoughtful, and caring, doing everything they could to make the stay flawless - didnt even need to ask, they had already done it! Service at its best.

    Although the design and decor of the room is superb, the sheer curtains are not suitable, there should be black out blinds. Also the shower tiling is showing its age. And a sink instead of a urinal in the separate wc would make it 100% perfect 👍

    Everything was brilliant, most of all the location, room decor and staff. We also enjoyed the riverview balcony and the breakfast spot

    Take your laundry to a local place that is just down the road. In house is $5 USD per kg which is 3-4 times more than anywhere else.

    Breakfast, location, staff and the room are all perfect. The whole hotel feels like the honeymoon suite. Our balcony overlooked the river and the beds were so comfortable.. Very quiet and peaceful location. We visited in early Feb and there were no bugs. We never even needed spray near the river. Highly recommend

    Our room had a great view of the mekong river and we could see the sunset from our balcony. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They helped pick out good drivers for our trip to the Kuang Si waterfall and our sunset viewing cruise on the mekong river. The hotel room itself had a really nice rustic vibe without sacrificing any cleanliness and had a great adjustable bed 😁. 10/10 would come again.

    There was a scam link within the booking.com massage function with the hotel. Fortunately I managed to contact the hotel to clarify.

    Great location Close to many F&B spots and bars Walking distance to the morning and night markets…with free bicycles, easy to get around. The complimentary breakfast was very good.

    A beautiful and charming hotel located in a quiet section on the Mekong. The rooms are beautifully appointed with - quite honestly - some of the best beds I've ever slept in. Lots of lovely touches in the rooms and plenty of seating and storage, including a terrace overlooking the river. Mr Noi and all the staff were outstanding - including our favourite breakfast team. Speaking of breakfast, I recommend the Lao soup, omelettes and fruit, all fresh and delicious. We also booked a great driver for a day through the hotel to take us to the waterfalls. The hotel is very conveniently located within easy walking distance to everywhere. Would 100% recommend this hotel to anyone visiting beautiful Luang Prabang.

    Staff was very attentive to our needs. The temperature as over 100 degrees (41 celsius in Luang Prabang) when we arrived and we were having a hard time dealing with the heat. Day manager Mr. Ping allowed us to change rooms to the ground floor and helped us adjust. The other staff went out of their way to arrange for tours and get us oriented to the town. Breakfast and meals at the river view restaurant across the street was outdoors and the staff were also very ettentive.

    Location absolutely wonderful, possibly the best spot in town! Being Coeliac (Gluten Free) I’m always scrutinising hotels’ breakfast offerings and inevitably end up not having much choice. If the hotel could make/source Gluten free bread I would give 10/10!

    Not the hotel's fault, but it is a bit noisy at night. That comes of being beside a large temple and along the main road.

    Amazing location. Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful breakfast area. Very pleasant rooms, nicely appointed.
