Good amenities around the hotel and close to most attractions etc.
We arrived during a festival so the area was really vibrant and interesting for our stay. The room was clean and comfortable and I would definitely stay here again.
We stayed four nights and would definitely recommend to others. Great location, a little noise from the markets opposite in the evening. Very friendly and helpful staff and the best buffet breakfast.
Awesome location. Close to many food options from restaurants, street food, bars, and Starbucks. All in walking distance no more than 10 minutes and close to the bank to exchange money. We would definitely stay here again and the staff were very accommodating and polite.

I wish the property had an iron, especially if you have wrinkled clothes.
Great location on the river right opposite the night markets and Ferris wheel playground. Fabulous room and staff were sooo accommodating. Breakfast was good.
We had a balcony room overlooking the river and the market setting up and the night selling kept us amused. Does get a bit noisy with the loud music and sometimes the packing up (until 2am) of the stalls but just shut the door! We loved it. This was our first taste of Laos and we loved it. We walked everywhere and caught a tuk tuk once.
The lifts broke down and the staff were very accommodating. It’s an easy walk up and down the stairs. Just carrying the bags the guys wouldn’t let us.
They arranged bus to Vang Vieng.
