Luang Prabang Hotels with Bars

The room exceeded my expectations – living amidst the rice paddies was incredibly relaxing. The decor was beautiful, comfortable, and had a fresh, natural vibe that truly allowed for a full rest of body and mind. The shuttle bus to the city center isn't very frequent, so it might not be ideal for those who prefer a lively and convenient location. Mina at the front desk was very efficient and incredibly helpful, and her English was fluent, which was a big plus! The breakfast quality and variety were also great. Highly recommended!

Satri House – A Living Museum You Can Sleep In Staying here feels like stepping into a beautiful dream from another era. Every corner is a work of art. The furniture, the layout, the little details—they all whisper stories of old Indochine charm. It doesn’t feel like a hotel. It feels like you’re actually living in a graceful, historic home. The architecture is stunning, and the garden and pool are simply gorgeous. Peaceful, timeless, and so beautifully kept. The staff are warm and genuinely kind. We used the bikes from the resort to explore town, and it added so much joy to the experience. Breakfast is à la carte, and each dish was delicious—thoughtfully prepared, never rushed. And somehow, every time we stepped out, we came back to a perfectly cleaned room. It’s the kind of care you don’t often see. Satri House isn’t just a stay—it’s a feeling. One I won’t forget.

I stayed in a pond-view room, and the overall atmosphere was truly fantastic! The hotel's garden scenery is exceptionally serene. Opening the window, you're greeted with a direct view of the pond and greenery – surrounded by nature, it's tranquil and healing, perfect for photos. Sitting by the window in the morning, enjoying the garden view, was incredibly relaxing. The only slight drawback is that the room's cleanliness details could be improved. Being by the pond with lots of greenery, tiny ants occasionally appeared on the bed, which somewhat affected the experience at night. Overall, the scenery and environment are a huge plus, but I hope the hotel can address the issue of mosquitoes and ants with thorough pest control, otherwise, the experience of staying in a room with such a beautiful view is significantly diminished.

At just over a hundred a night, this place offers great value for money. The decor has a lovely Southeast Asian vibe, and it's super convenient for getting to places like Foreigner Street. Breakfast by the Mekong River nearby is quite charming too.

This hotel offers breakfast and is located in a quiet corner near a temple, close to the city center and the river. The room is wooden, which is pleasant. It's not new, but everything is quite decent. It has air conditioning, hot water, a refrigerator, and even a safe (we haven't opened it). The breakfasts are good, with a choice of 10 items (pancake/rice/roll with fillings + drink + fruit). Coffee/tea/water are always free at reception. The Wi-Fi works fine.

Great location with convenient transportation. The hotel's interior is beautiful and pleasant, featuring typical local architectural style. They offer Chinese-speaking staff, which was very helpful for communication.

You come to this hotel to stay at the Explorer Tents. They really are a one-of-a-kind accommodation experience. Air-conditioning in the tents is very powerful, so no problem at all. The toilet area is outside but it's the glamping experience. There are two pools, one at the spa which is just magical and one Main infinity pool. There is a sauna at the spa centre, all free for use. There is a so-called beach where you can actually stand at the banks of the Namkhan River. There are other outdoor activities dotted around. The breakfast options are small but should be enough to satisfy. The location is very secluded, so when you do get to the hotel, you won't be coming out to the old Town, despite having free shuttle services. I opted to book a transfer with the hotel to the airport as I didn't want to risk missing my flight, with no LOCA cars willing to enter this area. I stayed at Explorer Tent No. 2

Good location and good breakfast. However, guests are not allowed to wear shoes inside the hotel, which didn’t make much sense as the floor in our room was dirty — my shoes were honestly cleaner than the floor. We also rented a scooter from the hotel, but it was given to us with an empty tank. Since it was Lao New Year, we visited around five petrol stations and found them either closed or out of fuel. One place offered petrol at 160,000 kip, which we refused since the scooter rental itself was only 190,000 kip. We decided to return the scooter, but about 1.4 km before reaching the hotel, it ran out of fuel completely. Fortunately, a kind local shop owner helped us by selling petrol in a beer bottle, which allowed us to make it back. We were quite disappointed that the scooter was provided with an empty tank during a holiday period, without any warning that petrol would be difficult to find. The hotel only refunded 120,000 kip, and overall it was not a pleasant experience. If you rent a scooter here, make sure it comes with a full tank or confirm fuel availability in advance.

The breakfast selection was plentiful and better than many chain hotels in China. Considering this isn't China and is a tourist area, where I once paid nearly 200 Lao Kip for a small guesthouse with a dilapidated bed in the attic, this hotel was incredibly good value. More importantly, many hotels of similar quality I've stayed in here only offered simple Western-style cold breakfasts, while this one served Chinese food. After talking to the owner, I learned the hotel was recently built, and all the appliances were from China. The most surprising thing was the bathroom floor. When you turn the air conditioning to 21 degrees Celsius in your room, stepping barefoot into the bathroom floor feels warm—you know the feeling of surprise. The hotel helps book shared transportation to and from the train station for 50,000 Lao Kip. There's also a large swimming pool!

There are pros and cons about this place. Let's go with cons, in a alley way , Google map can't find it, I called for 30/35 minutes no one answered the call, these is a construction going on in the property and property opposite ( if you are looking for a sleep late into morning ( forget it) construction starts 7:30/8:00 am , breakfast is served in the room ( day one with breakfast they served butter and ham as well ( day 2 none ) I asked and was told they ran out ( don't have - exact words ) I toms the reception about butter and jam( wa stone should be there next day ( the breakfast came no butter and jam - was told don't have ) I said go ask the front desk and then they got it ( by the time I am done with my breakfast ( they don't replenish toiletries ) I had to specifically ask for it( toilet paper is like a shredded paper ( not easy to use ) the view from the balcony is from the property that is opposite ( view is Villa Oasis) next door . Pros - the front desk is helpful , they have bicycle for you to take and ride , they help you with your and travel and laundry , portion of breakfast is decent enough (choice of western and local ) but must tell them the time ( breakfast served on room and has to be pre booked , very close to night market , but 17 min walk from the Mekong river side ( night market famous for food) rooms are pretty big ( some with balcony ) Overall till the time the construction doesn't get over with the property and the property opposite o would suggest to stay away from this place as they start early morning banging around 7:30ish And the amenities are cheap which is use and throw and they don't replenish ( good place of you love eating as night market is close by) I am not a backpacker ( hence I won't ever consider staying in this place every again )
