Eco friendly hotel ideally situated in Luang Praba

Due to an admin error on my part we arrived a day earlier than expected, the staff were very helpful and managed to get us into our rooms without any fuss. The hotel is beautiful, centrally located and the staff are very helpful. We had massages in the spa on a couple of days and again the staff were excellent. I cannot recommend this hotel enough.

We really loved the Sanctuary Hotel in Luang Prabang. It was truly a sanctuary. A wonderful place to go to each night. Our room was delightful, very spacious and tastefully appointed. The hotel was very handy to all the sites and great restaurants of Luang Prabang. Breakfast at the hotel and also dinner at night in the hotel restaurant was top quality.

We absolutely loved our stay at The sanctuary. We were upgraded to a suite and the room was perfect with traditional style wood throughout. The breakfast was so good, a great choice and good coffee with lots to choose from. The pool was a lovely place to cool off after a hot day sight seeing and I can recommend a visit to their spa for a massage and facial . Lastly the staff are so tentative, kind and more than happy to help with anything you require. We booked for 5 nights and could have stayed longer, we will book back in on our way through luang next week. Thank you

A sanctuary in Luang Prabang!

The Sanctuary is a wonderful hotel for your stay in Luang Prabang. The staff could not have been more helpful nor more gracious. The breakfast included with our room was stellar and scrumptious with a variety of Laotian as well as western treats. The daily screening of the 1927 movie on Laos, Chang, is inspired. We loved our stay!
