Unfortunately, 35min Walk to City because the Bamboo Bridge doesn‘t exist anylonger. Not sound Proof at all. Very Noisy!

Good environment, quiet, hotel is well designed, swimming pool is always available and with clear water. Room is big, with nice review, hot shower with large water, refrigerator, pajama. 900 meters to the center. Local food stand, fruit, restaurant available close by. Nice staff, helped us to rent the motorbike and bus to train station. Also help to change some money when we did not have enough to pay the rental. Variety of breakfast, nice service.

Breakfast was not to western taste. Yogurt fruit and croissant fine but just couldn't eat cold fried eggs an funny sausage.. It's a small place and would be great if they could have made a fresh fried or scrambled eggs like other places

Staff were great. Liked my room near the pool.was great to have access to free bikes.. And just a quick cycle over the old bridge to the main side of town. In quieter area Ann great good value restaurants nearby on the quiet side

promised transport to night market unavailable first several days. First morning breakfast was good with great croissant. Following breakfasts terrible. Maybe due to large Chinese tour group.

Helpful staff. near Dyen Sabai restaurant.

Hot water was available at reception but I would prefer a kettle in my room

The staff were so welcoming. They give you free electric scooters to use which are very good . Free transport to the airport.

We didn't realise when booking that the hotel was across a bridge, which was a bit of a walk to the main town, and most tuk tuks were reluctant to give us a lift home due to this. This was our fault when booking for not checking, however I would be mindful that staying here you are a tuk tuk or bike trip away from the centre / 20 minute walk.

Staff and room were amazing, couldn't fault the hotel. They were really accommodating and helpful by giving us free tuk tuks to the main town.

The TV was just a normal TV so didn’t have access to WiFi and Netflix/other streaming services. No shade in the pool chairs

Far from the city center and the English issues with the staff

Lovely room with a swimming pool for 27USD and also just near the airport

Not the easiest place to stay if you are uncomfortable using a moped, bike or hopping on a long boat to reach the old town. Fortunately this did not apply to us, but wanted to point this out.

Lovely, spacious room with traditional furnishing and decor, large comfortable bed and a nice modern bathroom. We were on the first floor and liked the vaulted wooden ceilings and good-sized balcony, which overlooked the small well-kept pool and dining area. This is a small, peaceful hotel, in a low-key local area just across the Nam Kham river. The location may initially seem off-putting, but the route across to the main / old town of Luang Prabang is an experience in itself! When we were there the river was high and 5-minutes wander from the hotel a small very reasonably-priced boat crosses on demand for most of the day and evening ... So approximately 10 minutes in total and you are amongst everything the lovely town offers, with the benefit of a little boat trip first! In dry season there’s a bamboo foot bridge instead and at all times a different iron bridge that you can walk across , or use a bike or moped borrowed from hotel or hired in town. Another plus, the smiling owner will collect / run you to the airport in about 10 minutes in his tuk tuk.

The shower didn’t drain well in my bathroom, which meant the bathroom flooded badly every time I used it. (To be fair, I didn’t report it during my stay - perhaps if I had they would have promptly fixed it.) There’s a bar opposite the guesthouse which plays pretty loud music that you can hear in some of the rooms. Not the guesthouse’s fault obviously - and they always stopped by midnight, but just something to be aware of if you have children. The pool was excessively chlorinated I think as it felt a little chemical-y and the water could have been cooler. Also the hotel could think about getting covers for the outdoor chairs that aren’t leather (as they’re a bit hot to lie on) The staff don’t speak much English, which is not a big deal but did cause a bit of confusion when it transpired they had got our rooms mixed up with some other guests’ on the bill (we had difficulty explaining this)

Very clean and comfortable hotel with pool which in many respects feels quite luxurious for the price. Lovely decor and great bathroom. Would be very happy to stay there again. It’s definitely also worth noting that the hotel is not as far away from town as it looks on the map. It’s across the river Nam Khan from the centre of town, and due to the layout of the roads is not that close by car, BUT there’s an alternative, smaller bridge you can cross on foot/by scooter (‘the Old French Bridge’) which makes for a very pleasant walk. In addition: there’s a little boat run by a nearby restaurant (called Dyen Sabai - they do tasty food and cocktails!), which you can flag down and it will take you across the Nam Khan right to the heart of Luang Prabang’s old quarter. The boat only takes about a minute. I think it’s been set up quite recently and they take you across regardless of whether you’ve eaten at the restaurant or not (for a very small fee). We heard that in dry season when the river is really low there’s no boat but you can simply take a little footbridge across from the same spot. All very convenient if you’re staying at Alana…

Some guests are extremely noisy. We were not given the room that we paid for. The staff make sure that they get a sice of the cake when arranging transport.

Booked here as an extra treat for my birthday as it had a swimming pool. Really great staff and friendly. Very helpful especially with helping us arrange out transfers to the next destination. Room got cleaned every day, fresh towels, water, made the bed. The staff were always busy cleaning and looking after the place. Breakfast was delicious loads of choices to choose from. If I ever was in the area again I’d definitely book here again. Thank you for a wonderful stay

They had promised us a baby cot through booking.com, but they didn't have this. Beds and sheets were clean, but the room could have done with a proper clean in corners and on ledges. It was very dusty. Breakfast was a bit of a mess, but they tried, at least. :)

Pretty colonial style hotel, nice pool, nice staff. Comfortable beds.

• The front desk staff was well meaning, but inexperienced. The staff was difficult to communicate with even past the language barrier. • Our room, #20, had poor WiFi signal if it even worked at all • The bar next door played loud music until midnight every night. • The breakfast was below average. Cold boiled hot dogs, cold fried things. The ladies just bring over random foods without asking, which ends up wasting a lot of food. I wish they would focus on a few things of high quality instead of many low-quality things. • It was a long (30 minutes) walk to the old city and the bikes were not always available • Overall, poor value for the money

We booked Alana in advance and were very excited to relax there based on the other reviews and photos. Unfortunately, we did not fully enjoy our stay. The good things were: • Clean, spacious room • Good hot shower • Helped to book our train • Bikes available to take to town

Stayed in January 2025

Location isn’t great. It’s 30 mins from the main town and across a bridge that you can’t access by foot. Not too many places to eat around this area either. Staff don’t speak a lot of English and I wouldn’t say we’re very helpful, apart from the lady on reception.

Room was spacious and comfortable- perfect after coming off the slow boat! WiFi was absolutely amazing!!

The music first from the next door neighbor which started at around 12 pm then the music from the pub stared around 6.00 pm and finished around 12.00 am - we asked if there was a quiter room but apparently not. Would not recommend stayed four nights too long.

Everything was clean, staff pleasent.
