“Didn't want to leave”

This is by far one of the best places we have stayed on all of our Southeast Asia travels. The staff is definitely a great asset, as is the location and layout of the Villa and Center. Everyone was so attentive, friendly, approachable, and patient, be it the people at the reception, at the restaurant - great food by the way - or during the four courses (bamboo weaving, silk dying and weaving, Hmong batik, Hmong embroidery) that we took here. We booked with breakfast and it was always delicious as well. Our room was beautifully decorated, clean, a good size, and the balcony overlooking the Mekong was amazing. The little daily gifts for staying there were such a thoughtful touch. We also made use of the free Tuk Tuk into town and back. Luang Prabang is a beautiful town with unpretentiously friendly people. It is definitely worth spending a bit more for this great experience and location. So much care is put into maintaining the grounds. It's simply beautiful. We stayed eight nights and had a great and relaxing week here and cannot street enough how great the staff was.

It's a very unique villa by the Mekong river. Very quiet with nice view, and huge terrace. The breakfast was very nice. The craft center offers a variety of activities. The bathroom was also nice and clean.

“A wonderful and memorable stay.”

A gorgeous location. Rooms are Quiet, comfortable and clean. The bed was really comfortable and the pillows were too! Superb breakfast available. Free tuk tuk shuttle into town and back, running every half hour.

“A place that stays in the heart”

My stay here was truly special. From the moment I arrived, I felt a sense of harmony and calm. The room was beautifully decorated with exquisite locally woven textiles, adding authenticity and soul to the space. Every detail reflected care and cultural depth. Waking up with the Mekong just in front of me was unforgettable — the light, the silence, the slow rhythm of the river created a magical atmosphere. The food was excellent, and the kindness of the staff made everything even more meaningful. Their warmth and genuine hospitality completed the experience. This is not just a hotel, but a place where you truly feel the spirit of Luang Prabang.

The room was beautiful. Staff efficient, helpful and friendly. Food was exceptional.

“Could have been excellent.”

The breakfasts were substantial and delicious. I did an embroidery class which was good fun, the teacher and translator were both very patient and helpful, and we had an enjoyable time. The room itself was comfortable enough, although rather cold.... The staff members were polite, helfpful and friendly. Location was lovely.

“Great place and lovely location. Lovely staff and food. Great ethos as well”

Excellent location.

“A dream in Luang Prabang”

The atmosphere, the furniture, the colors, the idea behind, the breakfasts, the people - everything!

“Excellent stay”

Amazing property and staff

“Beautiful accommodation, location and fantastic amenities.”

Ock Pop Tok is beautiful, located on the Mekong, we booked one of the rooms to overlook the river, which I feel was definitely worth the extra. Great bar and restaurant with shop, the whole complex is well thought out showcasing local craftspeople, you can even take a free tour to learn more, enjoy workshops or wander at your leisure. The room itself was well designed, comfortable and spacious. The hotel has bikes, and a free tuk tuk service so accessing the centre of town is incredibly easy and doesn't take long. I would definitely recommend.

“Peaceful, colourful and beautiful”

Beautiful setting overlooking the river and beautifully decorated. Staff were excellent. Free shuttle and cycling into town. Stunningly peaceful. Restaurant is superb. Sheets were super soft and just the comfiest bed ever.

“Perfect spot”

Everything. If we could give them an 11 as a score, we would have given it. For us our stay at Ock Pop Tok was in word: Fantastic. The place itself is beautiful, the staff extremely helpful and very kind. The location so well chosen when it comes to the sunset. To use the words of our 6 years old daughter: " Mama I feel myself at home here." We were staying at the villa. A beautiful, perfect place near the Mekong river. The outdoor and indoor design are stunning, very comfy beds, very good shower and excellent bath. To our surprise no mosquitos, so we could enjoy our private teras in the evening. Free tuk-tuk to town. Very tasty breakfast. We strongly recommend this place.

“Ideal to watch the sunset, chill and enjoy Lao craft culture”

Amazing place for sunset. Great explanations of crafts (you can try your hand if you wish). Great café, I recommend the deep fried whole tilapia and the fresh spring rolls. The silk shop has the most beautiful pieces. Don’t expect a bargain, the master weavers need a fair wage.

“excelent”

breakfast, dinner and excellent service and the environment

“Just lovely, magical even!”

Beautiful location and villa. Sunsets are magical.

“Such a great experience!”

I loved staying right at the living crafts centre, it was so interesting being able to learn more about the women who work there & weave these beautiful artisanal products. The room was comfortable & clean and I loved the sustainability aspects. The view from the restaurant onto the river was absolutely beautiful and I appreciated the free tuktuk transfer between the living crafts centre and the centre of town.

“Magically relaxing In the most peaceful setting”

The location, food and the staff. Waking up everyday to the Mekong river was magical. The view gets better and better. The grounds and style of the rooms are beautiful. I liked all of the recycled wood. The balcony is such a huge and beautiful area to relax. Food is sensational. Perfect spot to watch the sunset in their restaurant. Breakfast in the tree house was lovely. The staff cannot do enough to help you. Very friendly and helpful. Free bicycles and tuk tuk service was wonderful- the tuk tuk service can be busy with people visiting so give them enough notice with the time you would like. The weaving course was a perfect way to spend an afternoon. Hotel helped arrange a private river cruise for $50- amazing! We also visited the local pottery house which was recommended- very enjoyable experience. Overall perfect for solo traveling. My brother joined me half way through my stay and equally enjoyed the stay together.

“Will hopefully be back again”

Not my first time staying here. The place still has a magical atmosphere. A lush garden faving the Mekong. Highly recommend to take some workshops while staying there. The view is so inspiring. A great creative retreat. Book ahead for drinks/meals in the tree house. The restaurant serves good food too.

“One of the best villas I've ever stayed in, beautiful decor, relaxed location and gorgeous details.”

This is honestly one of the most amazing places I have ever stayed. The villa was absolutely beautiful with lovely local details such as the design and decor of the rooms, and being right on the river was truly magical. Best breakfast setting I've ever experienced, and a serene, relaxed location. I'll definitely be back.

“Magical”

We absolutely loved this place. The room we had was just magical. In front of the Mekong, such peace. This is a special place. It is more than just a beautiful hotel it has depth to it. You will learn about Lao textiles and you can see women working at the loom. We took a half day silk weaving class and had so much fun. The rooms are decorated with gorgeous textiles. Every detail is thought of with beauty in mind. The staff were just so lovely also. I so hope to come back. Thank you for your hospitality. My girls and I had an unforgettable stay.
