Great hotel with great view and excellent staff

Great location on the river right opposite the night markets and Ferris wheel playground. Fabulous room and staff were sooo accommodating. Breakfast was good. We had a balcony room overlooking the river and the market setting up and the night selling kept us amused. Does get a bit noisy with the loud music and sometimes the packing up (until 2am) of the stalls but just shut the door! We loved it. This was our first taste of Laos and we loved it. We walked everywhere and caught a tuk tuk once. The lifts broke down and the staff were very accommodating. It’s an easy walk up and down the stairs. Just carrying the bags the guys wouldn’t let us. They arranged bus to Vang Vieng.
