The pool was broken so we couldn’t swim and it was hot and humid.

The location was excellent just a short walk to wherever you need to go. Ana and the staff at Global Hostel GH were excellent.

Quite noisy because there is a nightclub behind the hotel, that plays loud music until midnight.

Excellent place with good value for the price. Manager is super nice and friendly!

Anna (the host) was the most friendly we have had our whole trip!! She was very knowledgeable as well and helped us plan tours and trips. The pool was lovely and got cleaned very frequently. Breakfast was also very good with a fair few options

We adored this place! The location was perfect, the room was so comfortable and clean and the highlight of the place was the kindness of the host Anna, she was the most charming and welcoming person I have ever met and made our stay so wonderful, even though we could only stay in Vang Vieng for one night. She was so eager to give suggestions, help arrange transport and so easy to talk to about anything - the worst thing about this place is that you will miss her after leaving! The addition of free breakfast was also a highlight and it’s always a luxury having a pool too.

Todo fue perfecto :)

ANNA (L) She is the nicest person. She is at the reception and welcomed us amazingly. She helped us to organise our plans during our stay. It has been a pleasure to meet her and she made our stay better, without any doubt. The bed was comfortable, room clean and breakfast very good. The location is perfect and air conditioning works pretty well. We strongly recomend this hotel

Would've loved a hot shower, but the cold at least woke me up!

The staff were just amazing and couldn't do enough for you. Organised all my trips and onward journey. Anna is a real treasure and makes you feel very welcome. Location is good. Not much noise at night. Comfortable bed and good A/C. Breakfast is good too.

The Global Hostel isn’t the fanciest place you’ll ever stay - it’s a bit rough round the edges, it could do with a little bit of TLC and modernising, but it’s clean and spacious, my bed was super comfy. The main attraction here though is Anna - there is a reason why she is constantly mentioned in the reviews and that is because she is the sweetest, kindest most helpful person I’ve ever met. Anna genuinely loves her job, and nothing is too much trouble for her, she will go above and beyond to plan and make your stay in Vang Vieng amazing. The Global Hostel is in a central location, close to the main hub of bars and restaurants, and the included breakfast is pretty decent, there’s a number of options and it’s nice to start your day sat round the pool talking to other guests. Big love to Anna, her brother Peter and the rest of the staff for a brilliant stay, I had an amazing time, thank you for everything 🩷

The pool needs a bit of a clean but I think it’s from all the dust from the road

Room was very spacious and clean. Hostel is right next to bars/restaurants. Anna is so helpful and super friendly, she helped us book transportation and tours!

Anna was the kindest, most helpful, and always smiling person i met in Laos. She truly makes this place special and welcoming. Her hospitality and warm attitude created an unforgettable experience. If everyone were like her, the world would be a better place. Highly recommended!

We would have loved to have used the pool but were put off because it didn’t look particularly clean. No vegan options at breakfast.

We stayed 5 nights and would have happily stayed longer. The rooms are a bit run down but spotlessly clean and very spacious. Anna is an absolute star, she took great care of us and made sure we had the best possible experience. Scooter rental and activities are reasonably priced. We were sad to leave and say goodbye.

Best location I've stayed in Asia. The staff are amazing, can't do enough for you, always on hand with recommendations for food/tours etc. Everything in the accommodation is spotless. Location wise it is in the middle of Vang Vieng but I had no issues with noise from any of the bars nearby. Great value for money, even tours booked through the reception were good value. Can't recommend enough!!!

Stayed in January 2025

Something to be aware of is the loud nightclub nearby playing loud music until around midnight. This didn't bother us as we just popped earplugs in but important to note.

Excellent stay made memorable by Anna and Peter the hosts. The hostel rooms are basic it's nothing luxurious but don't let that put you off staying here. Anna took time to get to know us and recommended a personalised itinerary. She recommends different things to each guest depending on their preferences. Every day we returned Peter and Anna were interested in what we got up to. They also arranged our train onwards to Luang Prabang. Simple breakfast such as fried eggs or french toast included in the price. Bed was comfortable, shower was warm and we had a nice table and chairs outside our room. Recommend eating at happy mango!

The absolute best place to stay in Vang Vieng. Anna was the best host ever. We loved her.

We’d like to give it 8.5 as breakfast and terrible wifi lets this place down from being a 10. *also not an issue as such but make sure you pay by dollars if not using cash as the exchange rate to KIP is bad ( we paid $10 more because we tried to use local currency) but overall cost paid is still worth staying here!!

Amazing lady called Anna working on the desk here, she was super kind and helpful throughout our stay She is one of the best things about this place along with the great rooms.

Breakfast bread didn't come with butter. I would of liked butter with it. I probably should of asked for butter tho.

Host Anna was awesome,.She will go above and beyond to help guests with whatever they need!

Anna was an amazing host and helped us plan our stay perfectly. Often sorting out Tuk Tuks and activities very last minute, including a hot air balloon ride with Above Laos which was spectacular. The room was spacious and clean with a good shower and comfortable beds.
