I stayed here for a few days and after months of traveling, it was neither the worst nor the best. It was fine, which is completely acceptable especially at this price point. The location is great, very short walk to everything, including the main road. It is located right at the river, but there are no views from your window.... More

Our first time in luang prabang and a little disappointing. Our room was ok but the view from the window was concrete and tiles all around. Sometimes it was late when the room was cleaned and the day before we left not at all. Breakfast was ok but the other side of the road and my girlfriend was cold eating... More

On my second stop in Luang Prabang, a one night stay prior to heading to Bangkok, I chose to save a little money on accommodations. I booked Sokthavy via Agoda because it was 1) cheap and 2) the location seemed great-- right on the Mekong and just a short block up to the Night Market. The location did end up... More

We stayed here for 6 days in April 2011. We originally booked through agoda buy when we arrived there was no booking however the hotel quickly and without hassle gave us a room and we sorted the situation out later. We paid $22.50 US or 180,000 kip for a small, air con room with tv. I wouldn't pay any more... More

I don't have any big complaints about this hotel. It was just okay - but nothing special. The location is genuinely good, right by the river. But Luang Prabang is a small place and it would be hard to find a guesthouse in a bad location. The other good thing - the internet worked well here, which is hard to... More

Rooms were comfortable enough and the staff were friendly. Breakfast of local noodle soup or eggs was great. Only thing disapointing was the shower, single jet stream, not ideal. It was hot but impossible to get wet! Would recommend it for the price and location, but we upgraded to a better hotel that had a view over the Mekong and... More

We happened across this place by walking past looking for a room. There are only a small number of rooms, and they are a little cramped but comfortable. Room and bathroom were clean and tidy. They have Air conditioning, satelite TV and hot water. I think they also had complimentary bottles of water (???). The bathroom we had was very... More

This guest house has rooms for US$35.00 including an American breakfast. It is supposed to include free wifi. Unfortunately, the wifi wasn't working properly, and the manager said that the problem must be with our computers (not so). The rooms were very small with very little room to store anything, no chair and no desk. The air conditioning was fine,... More
