Highly recommend sitting at its restaurant/bar in the morning for the light breakfast and viewing the hot air balloons flying across the mountains on the opposite side of the Nan Song river. Impressive view and it was a good place for reflection and quiet time. The garden was nicely maintained which was an additional plus to staying at the place.... More

Me and my brother travelled through Asia. This was the hotel we found most comfortable and like home. This is because of the friendly staff and the awesome manager, who really helped us a lot and showed us where and where not to go. The Hotel owner was also staying there while we did, so we got to talk to... More

The hotel is quite hard to find as the small sign on the main road after the hospital may not be seen. once down the track by the river, the place looks great and charming. Ideally located near the river, and the boats departure points, and out of the center night life and nose. The garden and the view are... More

We liked the hotel because the views over the river are awesome. To sit on the terrace and have a cigar is a great moment. Comfortable chairs and a cool drink make the sundowner experience perfect. The beds are large, clean and comfortable as are the rooms. It's far from the hoi polloi and the noisy bars of this backpacker... More

I did not stay in this hotel, but had dinner at La Verandah. Ambience is nice, nice view of the river and mountains. However, the service staff need to be completely re-trained. I arrived at 18:30 and was greeted by a woman, while 2 waiters just stared at me, so I seated myself. After 5 minutes, had to wave frantically... More

Situated in a beautifully manicured garden, this hotel is in a perfect location, right on the river , facing the dramatic karstic mountains. It is a bit of a boutique hotel. The terrace overlooking the river is a nice place to take an evening drink at sunset (use your insect repellent though) and also where you have a quiet morning... More

I must agree with another review, this place is a scam. I had booked this ahead as I liked the pictures, and I had a lot of trouble in Vientiane getting a hotel as everything was full. A room like this would cost $35.00 in Vientiane and I paid $120.00!!! The room: a dungeon, no refrigerator, very dim lights, nowhere... More

We stayed here for one night on our way down to Vientiane and felt very lucky that we had chosen such a nice hotel with lovely gardens, beautiful views and friendly staff. We enjoyed dinner on the terrace soaking up the atmosphere. Vang Vieng itself is a rather scruffy town but the countryside along the river is fabulous.

LOCATION: Right by the Nam Song River overlooking the mountains. Excellent location for a sunset drink. A short walk to town centre. Right by the long boat rental pier. HOTEL: We booked and paid for our stay via a travel agency, and apparently this meant no check-in and no check-out. Staff simply gave us the room key, no signature nor... More
