Breakfast fresh every morning with great choices, served on your balcony overlooking river. All staff very friendly, went beyond expectations, from our welcome, booking tuc tucs and helping us book a private transfer when the provided transport never turned up. What a fantastic place. Highly recommended.

The service there was more than amazing, everyone was nice and they did everything to please us! Plus they provide free shuttle to go center town, the breakfast is great and generous, the decorations were beautiful, the pool was very clean and large enough to swim. I strongly recommand this hotel! Only downside: pillows were a little firm to my taste.

The service is superb. The entire staff is friendly and super helpful. For example, even though our flight arrived late and after the kitchen closed, they still brought us some food. And who can complain about having breakfast on your deck overlooking the river. The rooms are comfortable. The bathrooms are basic (e.g. only cold water in the sink) but completely functional. We highly recommend this place.

The bungalow is unique and you can have a great sleep listening to birds and frogs chirping away from the busy city center. Very tranquil and relaxing vibe. The water heater was luke warm and you couldnt have a hot shower feeling cold most of the time coming out. The wifi was intermittent, losing connection quite often. The location is also further away from city center than I thought, if you don’t take the free shuttle offered by hotel be prepared to pay 100k kip for a round trip to city center. The service and breakfast was normal. But overall the amenities in the bungalow was old and dated. For the price i just didnt think the value was reflected.

The only place to stay in Luang Prabang!!

This is an incredible place to stay. We loved every minute of our river view balcony, especially having breakfast there. The staff are amazingly friendly and attentive and couldn't be more welcoming. A beautiful gem that we genuinely didn't want to leave. Thank you Thongbay Guesthouse

We stayed for 5 nights in a riverside bungalow which was peaceful and relaxing. It was slightly away from the noise of town but easily within walking distance. We also cycled on free bikes and there is a shuttle bus in and out of town. The owner and staff were excellent and friendly and helped us organise trips andd transfers. Breakfast was great and we had a lovely stay, thank you
