Booked on agoda for $13/night, and the place turned out to be a really great value. Clean rooms, good air conditioning, good location. The staff had limited English, but it doesn't really effect the quality of your stay. The only issue we had was that my iPhone charger was stolen off the night stand in our room on the last... More

I stayed here for 3 nights in an ac room for 100,000 kipp, an excellent value, probably thanks to it being the off-season. The room was very clean - and cleaned daily at that. The staff was friendly and helpful (somewhat limited English, but totally functional) and I felt very safe as a solo female. It's more on the edge... More

This is my second stay at Philaylack Villa and this year, I had the [only] room with a balcony which was a blessing as I stayed over 2 weeks. The website needs updating as now, meals are not prepared at the GH but otherwise, this is a delightful place to stay. Near the River Mekhong, the Joma restaurant at the... More

This guesthouse has good sized clean rooms with fan and aircon. It is in one of the little side streets close to the river, so very quiet but not even a 5minute walk to the nightmarket. We only wanted to stay for 1 or 2 nights but ended up staying for 6! It has wireless internet and I think one... More

We moved hear from Vanvisa two streets further south which was noisy, had flimsy doors, no working internet - and we found this place delightful! The room was quiet, had flawless Internet. The Reception lady was very helpful and had good English. Because our flight was late in the afternoon and we could not have a late check-out due to... More

This guesthouse is few minutes walking from old town, but it's a pleasant walk by the river. Rooms are clean and have all the necessary amenities. The only minus was the satff, not speaking any English at all!! We couldn't ask for advise, the place was supposed to serve breakfast, but the staff seemed not to understand us when we... More

We stayed just for one night. There are many options in Luang Prabang for the same price. We didn't really sleep the night we stayed, the bed wasn't good. The staff were really nice though. We had wifi in our room and the location was quite good although not as quiet as we'd hoped. We ended up leaving and went... More

We didn't do any reservation before we arrived to Luang Prabang since offers seemed to be overpriced. Guesthouse owner met us near the post office and offered to see his property. We liked his place, the only disadvantage was the lack of internet access. So after I told him about that, he arranged us a wi-fi access to his neighbor's... More

I spent a week at the Philaylack, and really enjoyed it. The location is very good, on a quiet street between the main road and the Mekong river road. The family that runs it is very friendly and accomodating. The rooms are actually very nice, with AC, cable TV and good beds. It is within walking distance of anywhere in... More

I should mention, first, that I'm not accustomed to "guest houses," being an American on my first visit to South-East Asia. As a hotel-only patron, I wasn't sure what to expect. Just 12 days earlier, I'd stayed in a terrible, dirty, non-serviced room on the Vietnam/Cambodian border. The rest of my travels, I'd been in private apartments, with a friend.... More
