Very horrible stay. Staff were nice but the hostel dorms are like a dirty prison cell, very uncomfortable beds and blanket. Toilets and showers are all shared. The accommodation was so noisy I couldn’t sleep and left after the 1st night to stay elsewhere

I've stayed at about 30 different hostels in Southeast Asia in the last 3 months and Nana continues and remains to be my favourite amoung them all. I've not only returned to Laos and Vang Vieng multiple times because of this hostel. But I've even contemplated moving here. Nanas is the most amazing party social hostel. The staff are wonderful and they help you with everything and anything. I've met some of my bestest friends at this place. You can book buses, tubing, tours, jungle party tickets, you can pay to get your laundry done. You can buy food and drinks at the bar and you are also located to absolutely everything. The walking market, local street food, and bars. You can decide weather you want to chill or party. The pool is also amazing and I've been known to start many parties by jumping in with my clothes on. Nanas is home, Nanas is family. Highly recommended. 5 stars/2 thumbs up/10 out of 10. I can't wait to come back to Nana already.

AMAZING!! As soon as you arrive and see the pool you know it’s going to be a fab time at the Nana Hostel!! The entire place is clean, well maintained & all of the staff are so friendly & helpful. We were able to hire a scooter, book tubing, book a bus to our next destination all through reception - so easy & great organisation! We celebrated a birthday that was one to never forget, we had so much fun! This is definitely a party hostel, everyone is on the same vibes. Huge shout out to Rhayan & Zeus for some great tunes at the bar & awesome cocktails throughout our stay!! The food is superb; I recommend the chicken/bacon sandwich & the beef noodle soup - we ate it multiple times it was so good. Highly reccomend this hostel to anyone wanting to have a good time in Vang Vieng - you won’t find any other hostel like it. We will be back one day for sure. Cheers ;)

One of the best hostels I’ve ever been too. Don’t get me wrong this is a party hostel so be prepared lol. But if that’s your thing then this is the place for you. Free vodka every night. The staff were amazingly helpful. Clean toilet and basic dorm but decent. Good food at the resto. Spent xmas at nana and glad I did. Don’t hesitate to stay here...

Amazing fun! I was recommended to Nana’s by another hostel in Laos. The room was clean, the facilities were immaculate and most importantly, the staff were wonderful. You can book tours, tubing etc from the front desk. The staff speak English and the atmosphere is brilliant. I haven’t met one unhappy backpacker in the five days I have been here. I would highly recommend staying at Nana’s!

so nice

서방 친구들이 많은 호스텔입니다. 한국인들 많지 않은 곳을 원할 경우나 외국인 친구를 사귀고 싶다면 이곳에 묵어보세요. 가격을 생각한다면 시설은 그럭저럭 괜찮습니다. 아쉬웠던 점은 예약이 정확히 되어있진 않더라고요. 성수기라면 가기 전에 한 번 더 유선으로 체크하는 것이 혼란 없을 듯 합니다.
