I stayed in Vayakorn in February 2013. It was a great place to stay. Nice and central. Very clean. Shoes off. The staff was super friendly and quick to respond to any inquiry - although don't expect fluent English. I can really only think of two small drawbacks of this hotel: * My room was pretty noisy: barking dogs and... More

Lovely hotel with good superclean rooms and good beds. Good and clean bathroom. Good working aircon. Friendly staff. Good breakfast included. There is no elevator, so you have to use the stairs. The stair is made of nice but slippery wood, so slowly slowly or you can tumble down the stairs. But the room and location are fine, so yes... More

We stayed in this hotel for 2 nights when we first arrived in Vientiane. Our transfer from the international airport was seamless. The room was clean and really nice with enough room to stretch out a bit. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Breakfast was not included but we purchased eggs and toast one morning and it was good.... More

This is a gem of a hotel in a quiet laneway near the centre of Vientiane. It's a few minutes walk from the riverside and around the corner from some popular western and Lao restaurants. The directions for taxi drivers that don't know the place is to take the second turn after the Lao National Museum, and it's 200m down... More

Hotel location is very good, within walking distance of a lot of restaurants, small bars etc. Hotel itself was very clean and neat. The wooden flooring is kept in a good shape since you have to take off your shoes inside the hotel. WiFi is available although access to internet is not always flawless. Rooms are big and do have...

I visit Vientiane 2 times per year on business. I used to stay at the Lao Orchid but I stopped doing that because of an unjustified price hike. I switched to the Vayakorn Inn and am quite happy about it. The rooms are spacious, the bed is excellent, the bathroom is adequate, everything is clean, wifi works OK, and the... More
