Rebuilding!!!

Unfortunately, I can't review this hotel. We arrived and they were rebuilding beside and in front of the hotel. There was no parking as advertised. None of this is advertised obviously. After complaining, I was sent to their sister hotel, The Silver Naga, which was very nice. It is a shame hotels do things like this and not advise people.

Very satisfied with the price

Very satisfied with the price. When you wake up in the morning, you will have a wonderful view. Sit on the balcony to admire the Namsong River and mountains. The interior of the hotel is clean and well maintained. The restaurant is right next to the Namsong River, so the atmosphere is very satisfying. If you go back to Vang Vieng you will stay at this hotel.

Flott lokasjon, fint rom, nydelig utsikt

Rom med balkong med utsikt over elven og fjellene i bakgrunnen gjorde hele oppholdet enda bedre og det var skikkelig bra allerede. Personalet var veldig koselige, spesielt i restauranten og det var ingen problemer. Lokasjonen er fantastisk, nære alt (til og med til å være Vang Vieng, som er ganske lite område). Rommet var passe stort (jeg har ikke enorme mengder bagasje), men ingen garderobe eller lignende, så om du har mye bagasje og trenger steder å henge ting er det ikke optimalt. Senga var veldig komfortabel og badet fungerte flott. Dusjforheng gjorde at ikke vannet sprutet ned hele badet (som det ofte gjør i Asia). Varmt vann og godt trykk i dusjen. Maten i restauranten var skikkelig god og du spiser rett på vannkanten på treplatting med tak/overbygg så det var utrolig fint. Wifi fungerte kjempegodt også på rommet. Alt i alt er jeg allerede sikker på at jeg skal bo der igjen om jeg noen gang kommer tilbake til Vang Vieng.

Beautiful scenery. Kind of run down building. Very friendly staff. I want to be light hearted about this hotel because staff is very nice and has a good ambiance but this is just not for me due to construction, the quality of the rooms. I only went out on the balcony once due to what looked like a flurry of misquotes rushing in (yet they didn’t bite). I don’t really like to smells; not sure if it’s natural or chemical but bathroom and stairs area is really pungent. Keep in mind no elevator; after a late night drinking I had a hard time getting to my room. I’m not sure if the construction is building related but if it is they should have spent the money on renovations in my opinion. If you are a more tolerant to run down hotels then this place is good.

Elephant Crossing

While the room had amazing views of the river, it was very small and had pretty much zero storage. The bathroom was dingy-looking and had a bit of an odour. The room only had one accessible plug (another one was by the light switch at the entrance but because of its height and location, wasn’t really usable) to plug in the kettle and personal electronics. The breakfast was decent and is served overlooking the river. We also had dinner here and it was inexpensive and good.
