We had a pleasant but average stay for 3 nights. Booked a deluxe room but serously doubt it was. Room was tiny...difficult for 2 people with big travel backpacks. None the less - rooms clean, bed linen crisp, towels a little worse for wear and the AC and wifi very reliable. Little bit of construction going on but not enough... More

Stayed for 2 nights. Got a budget room for a midge-range price. Not worth it. More

Mali Namphu Guest House is located right next to the fountain square and the Scandinavian Bakery in central Vientiane. It is very close to the lovely temples Wat Sisaket and Wat Prakeo, as well as the Putuxai monument. The river is also quite near the guest house. The rooms are nothing special, but nice and clean and great value for... More

This hotel has a great location (the heart of the old town) near Namphu fountain, which is very easy to direct tuk tuks to. The room was bright, clean and the bed was comfortable with good, powerful A/C. Free computers for guests in the foyer was a big plus. Breakfast was pretty standard, but nice and plenty of it (if...

Well, we spent 1 night in this hotel and it was their New year. So the hotel was a bit busy celebrating their Laos New Year. They have a nice courtyard and was a good place to have breakfast or a cup of tea. The location is near to the city center where you can have all the foods, mini... More

The service in Mali Namphu is Very Good, we arrived here with no reservations and it was already almost dark, the receptionists welcomed us and gladly showed us their available rooms, we got the rooms outside near the courtyard, the rooms were spacious, the A/C and Hot/Cold were working fine. The receptionists never failed to answer any of our questions,... More

The bedroom and bathroom don't justify the price as you can get similarly sized and equipped rooms in Vientiane for US$10 - 15/night less. The mattress is more comfortable than the generally hard beds in this region. The bathroom door is a bit flimsy and there weren't enough hooks to hang clothes or towels. However, room and bathroom are clean.... More

Nice place to stay while in Vientiane. Location is good, rooms are big, bathroom ok (good shower, clean, little to small, door doesn't close). Staff has it moments, some are nice some don't understand that hospitality is part of the job. Breakfast is good and served in nice courtyard. Make sure you don't get stuck in a room with 'blind...

This is a very pleasant guesthouse (really, more of a hotel) in a great, central location on a quiet street in the centre of Vientiane. Within less than a minute's walk there's a big selection of good restaurants, bakeries and shops, as well as banks, massage, hairdressers etc. I stayed on the 4th (and highest) floor of the front building...
