The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was cozy and exceptionally clean. Lots of things to do on the grounds. My room had a ceiling fan but no AC...not a problem right now but would probably not be the best option during hot season. Overall a great experience and I would definitely come again.

The manager Mr. Thy and all the staff were so friendly and helpful. He booked an all day tour for us that I recommend. The free shuttle to town was convenient. He helped us to buy train tickets to Vang Vieng. You have a choice for daily breakfast that was very nice. The night we arrived they had a Christmas party with free food and drinks for guests. Only downside to stay was water for the shower and was not very hot.

Wonderful staff, all so very welcoming, friendly and helpful with everything we needed. A lovely room with private balcony, mini fridge, tea pot, amazing breakfasts with both Lao and western foods- lots of fruits! Bikes available to borrow, clean small swimming pool. River access. Beautiful landscape and easy access to city center via bamboo bridge ( except in monsoons). Love this place and will definitely return!

This boutique hotel is perfect for solo travellers and couples. It is located alongside the river thus affording an easy and relaxing view of the Mekong, if you dont mind the low murmur of passing boats. A few steps across the street from the hotel is the terrace restaurant, the hotel's extension where breakfast is served daily. I think this is the main draw. One can just relax here and take in the fresh air while enjoying a drink. It is a front row seat to witness the daily flow of life in the...

Second time I've stayed at this hotel. Beautiful location overlooking the Mekong, with breakfast included in the room rate and served outside across the street. Free transport (one way) to any place in town. The staff greets you warmly. They noted that my birthday was occurring during my stay and surprised me with a birthday cake at their restaurant. When I lost my wallet, a staff member drove me to the police station and helped me file a report. Excellent experience in every way.

My friend and I stayed here in October. The hotel exceeded our expectations. It was built on the hillside over looking the town. about a 10 min bike ride or 3 mins in car to city centre. hotel has a free shuttle that you simply request when you're ready to go out. very convenient. The location was quiet. The hotel beautiful and tastefully decorated. Each room has a balcony facing the pool with plenty of lush vegetation around to obscure views from neighbours a bit.

Excellent friendly, always smiling, staff! Comfortable clean room. Breakfast exceeded expectations. I'd prefer to be closer to the river and/or night market but the walk is ok!

Simply a nice peaceful stay with great support from the staff. Their driver ended up taking us on a nearly full day tour of Kuang Si Falls and everything in between!

The guest house does not have the heritage value of other properties in the area, which is reflected in the price. It is however extremely comfortable and the staff go out of their way to make you feel at home. On the opposite side of the river to the heritage area, a stay at the guest house involves a walk over a bamboo bridge, a feature in itself, in the dry season, or a short boat ride in the wet season. Great breakfasts, too.

The staff did everything possible to make our stay a good one. We had to check our bags in at 5am, no problem. After seeing the Monks almsgiving procession as the receptionist had wisely recommended, we had a good walk about and then we were free to use the pool and sit around until our room was ready later. Lovely pool to use and lie around.
It looks and is a hidden oasis.
Room was a good size. Nice facilities and the whole hotel was constantly being cleaned and recleaned and thus...

Breakfast was the highlight. Al la carte menu with fresh fruit available. Staff were amazing. Rooms are a little small but that's expected given the excellent central location (away from the night market buzz but close enough to walk). Only negative is construction going on behind the property and dogs barking at night. All of these things are out of the control of the hotel however and I can't fault them for that.
