This hotel is perfectly located close to old city and tons of dining and shopping options. The outside looks great but the rooms definitely need a retrofit. Bed/pillow made us wake up like we had just came from a marathon! Windows were so old that was really difficult to close them and the bathroom is too small and shower is not good and does make a mess in the bathroom when showering. A/C and frigobar was too loud overnight. Breakfast was really good, you have to choose between western (coffee/tea, fresh fruits, breads, eggs) or Laotian (coffee/tea, fresh fruits and pork sandwich). I’ve tried both and they are delicious and large portions.

Wonderful Stay

I arrived very early in the morning having booked on the day due to leaving another guesthouse down the road which was very unclean. I was greeted by a friendly man on the front desk (I'm sorry I didn't get your name) he allowed me to keep my bag in the office and helped me book a minivan to Vang Vieng. When I was able to check in my bags were moved to my room. I had room 100 with balcony overlooking the river. Room was spacious and clean, hot water avaliable and a couple of English TV channels including HBO. My room was cleaned each day, great location. All staff friendly. I wish I had booked here originally. Thank you all.
