The central position of the hotel it's very nice also for discovering the city by walking all the attractions are mostly within 30 minutes beside those away from the center. Also during night time it's easy to discover the night market which is right in the front. Also the food market is within 5 minutes of walk. The room is clean and also pretty big.

Staff very polite but speak little English. Sparsely decorated room, upkeep is good for Lao standard. Good bed, bedsheets, pillows. Vientiane is relatively expensive for the income of the country

Good location with friendly staff. If you are a light sleeper, then the noise from the market can be very disruptive to

The location is very centralised and the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and comfortable.

9.9 out of Ten

Well I do not usully review but this time felt I had too as this Hotel scores 9.9 out of 10. Rooms very clean , perhaps a better window as road noise a little annoying but then this is a capital city not the wilds of laos. Room cleaning staff excellent & do take notice of the do not disturb sign , even to the extent of "Trying to keep quiet" in the hallway when working. ( bluetooth ear pieces instead of a radio, surely these days is a must). Reception staff very very polite & helpfull from printing of some things I desp needed to downloading a loal food delivery app for me. Yes you can order too your room ( collect yourself in the lobby). Breakfast very very good selection of Breads , jams, coisants, fruit & hot Asian breakfast. You wont get a full Uk here lol. 1 tiny gripe on last day they had ran out of Bagguete & did not think to pop a few doors away to buy more fresh straight from the oven. Hence the .9 I am an ex hotelier so very hard to please but if I have to come to Laos again would highly recommend this hotel.
