We stayed four nights and would definitely recommend to others. Great location, a little noise from the markets opposite in the evening. Very friendly and helpful staff and the best buffet breakfast.

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.

Great hotel, modern and clean, excellent location. The night market can be a bit loud but i was fine with earplugs in. Decent breakfast spread. The food night market is a couple blocks away and well worth it!

8/10 Very good

The property is new and clean. Great location where you can access to night market and lots of good cafe around. The breakfast taste good but may have limited options, although it‘s reasonable with the price you pay. The only thing that bother me is in the bathroom, there‘s no separation from the wet and dry area on the floor and therefore, it can be a bit messy and wet all over.

Clean hotel with extra nice hosts
Nice hotel next to river in Vientiane. The people that worked here spoke good English and were very nice and always helpful. The room was basic but clean and comfortable. The breakfast was quite delicious with a mix of Laos, western and Thai influenced dishes. The hotel is located across the street from the night market so very convenient to find food and do some shopping in the evening.
