    The rooms didn’t have Air Conditioners and we went to this place in scorching heat of summers. We couldn’t sleep properly whole night.

    The location was just so perfect

    Bathroom could do with a refurb and there was a gap above the door

    Amazing location right on the river where you can swim and rent kayaks. Nice rooms, good air con, comfy bed, plenty of space.

    door was not fully closing on the top, VERY poorly soundproofed, as Hotel guests we could get breakfast one day because they already another group scheduled??, for Bus Tickets and room payment the receptionist always told us to come the next day again (lazy Host/service)

    Beautifully located next to the River, nice outside seating area, one minute away from the Great SaRa Café, 12min to bus station

    Wifi in the rooms further from reception hardly works. As it is cold at night in winter it would be nice to be able to sit inside and organise things. There is not always someone at the reception, most of the time it is a kid or teen. Friendly but not really understanding what one needs. Hot water per electrical switch but there was some lukewarm water at the most.

    Location and very good room. Long shared balcony.

    Holes in the mosquito net. Reception calculated price using their own exchange rate instead of the current rate. I ended up having to pay a few more hundred kip than what Google said the rate was. The bus ride back to Luang Prabang does not drop you off in the city center, but outside of town near the airport. Be prepared to cough up additional kip for a ride into town. It’s a conspiracy I do not think can be avoided.

    Location. River access to swim after a hike. Not far from the bus station and some very decent restaurants.

    Not many staff around and they couldn’t organise laundry. Bathroom a little dated. No duvet cover, just a sheet under the duvet, meaning you had to look at the stained duvet.

    Amazing location right on the river. Great place to sit and just watch the view. Room is comfortable and not just bare walls which is always nice.
