We paid 100000 kips for a nice spacious double room, aircon, good mattress, hot water in a wooden house. The location was quiet, except for a few barking dogs at nights. The staff was the unfrienliest ever (not to say they were rude and unconcerned), but we found out that this was a current behavior in Luang Prabang. Also, the... More

We stayed there one night before we move to another guesthouse. The reason we stay in this guesthouse is because we just arrived LP in the evening with slow boat. The sky getting dark and we hardly find a room in our budget. After moving in, first impression is the staff there looks friendly and helpful. The room consider clean.... More

This was a return visit for me as I stayed at Sokdee four years ago. Not much has changed, clean rooms, hot water, television, friendly staff, English spoken, can move you on, and right down the alley are the wonderful restaurants offering a view of Mekong River and boat traffic. More

100,000 kip for a standard room, 120,000 gets you either TV or wifi. The room was comfortable but had just a hint of a window. The bathroom was basic but functional. Staff were pretty bad though, the person on duty generally didn't have the key for anything (make sure you get water during the day from the cheap shop next... More

I stayed here for 5 nights with 2 friends. The price (100k Kip) was ok for 3 ppl, but the bed I got was a musty old mattress on the floor. Comfy, but I think it was infested with fleas. I was bitten so many times during the night it became sort of a joke in the morning. I don't... More

We stayed here last night for one night after arriving on the slow boat at sunset. We wanted a budget-priced room and looked at a few different places in this area which were either too expensive or ding , ybefore a guy on a bike showed us to Sokdee for 100,000kip room. He seemed nice enough and showed us to... More

We had a terrible experience whilst staying at this guesthouse. We forgot our notebook at the reception the night before departing and no one from the staff told us. We had to travel back to Luang Prabang for 7 hours two days later because the staff pretended (or actually were) ignorant when we called them by telephone about the notebook.... More

Wow.. Unfortunately I haven't consulted tripadvisor before checking into this place it I would have stayed away from the start. I was however in a desperate situation coming home from a trip to the waterfall (highly recommended) after dark with no room to stay in. So I was wet and muddy and in top of that feeling a bit sick.... More

I stayed 3 days in this Guesthouse and I wouldn´t recommend it to anyone. The people who run the place are absolutely unfriendly and the only thing they have in their mind is to get money from you or to sell you expensive tuc tuc trips. An example, one night we were coming back to the Guesthouse a bit late... More

ignorant staff but the room we got at the front was lovely. Good A/C, TV and clean. We paid 25 dollars per night for a double room. Stingy on the toilet paper and the bed had a huge towel instead of a sheet to sleep under. Bizarre. Grand place though! More
