SD View Hotel

The staff, very nice, helpful and clever, with a very good English. The vibe of the Hostel, very social without being a party one. The building itself very nice. It was Xmas so that I receive as a present a snack and drink.

The wall between rooms are in wood and also the structure. No isolation, so a bit noisy. The single room has not windows - this was bot a problem for me.

The owner of the hostel is very helpful and nice ! The view and the last floor is breathtaking

The owner is very open and supportive Bancony view was verry impress

The only positive was breakfast. Despite it taking some time, it was quite good.

I’m not sure where all the positive reviews are coming from. Perhaps the owners have changed. We found the owner completely unhelpful and outright deceptive. Trying to book anything with him was a good way to get ripped off. He would give one rate for USD-LAK one day, and change it the next to make an extra dollar out of his guests, and hope you don’t notice. We also used the laundry service which was awful. The owner returned the clothes late the next day still wet in the bag. We gave them back, explaining that they were wet and got a grunt in return. The following day we had to leave and he said he wasn’t sure where our clothes where, and we could walk out and look for them on the clothes line. We couldn’t find them, and they showed up still wet in a plastic bag on the floor. Overall the experience was atrocious and we left wanting to never come back. Do yourself a favour and book a hotel closer to the centre, with better service and more honest staff.

The location was perfect, very near the bus terminal. They suggested I hire a scooter, which I did and had the most amazing time. I accommodation itself was just perfect, Vang Vieng is just so beautiful, but what I can't ignore is how helpful the staff were. I slept in and missed my train, the hotel manager tried contacting me but I couldn't be woken. I missed my train and would then miss my next train to Bangkok and my flight home. The hotel manager knowing my situation reserved a bus to Vientiane then a flight to Bangkok, I'm sure he made a commission but the price was so good it was as if I just got a bonus night in Vang Vieng. Although I was looking forward to traveling by train to Bangkok, I still arrived in Bangkok the day before my flight. I haven't found myself in such a sticky situation before, but the hotel manager solved the whole problem so efficiently, it still feels like a miracle. I've never seen hotel staff do something quite like this. Thanks again Sengphet, and all the helpful staff at SD View Hotel

The location was good, just a short 5/10 minute away from town, which meant it was quiet! The view from the terrace was beautiful and a great spot for sunset. The bed was big and comfortable and the breakfast on offer every morning was nice and fresh! The staff were all friendly and the owner is very helpful and willing to arrange and book anything you need!

The location of the building is not far from shops, restaurants, convenient, beautiful views.

noisy bed😣

Staff was friendly and helpful

Location was far from centre but advertised as close to centre

Room D6 had double aspect windows looking out to the mountains. Amazing. Right next to the balcony terrace to enjoy a beer and watch the hot air balloons or night lanterns. Breakfast, simple but OK. Free water in room. Very helpful owner and lad behind reception. Scooter hire 170,000 kip a day. Hot air balloon 100 dollars. Laundry 25,000 kip per kilo Sorted onward travel tickets.

No where to hang clothes. Bathroom floor very wet and slippery (no extra towel to soak it up).

Far from.city center . no lift . Not good breakfast .

none

I couldn't have a shower in the morning due to the water supplies is stop working. so i waited until 11 o'clock and it's still not flowing. They charged me every time i did my move. And i think i didn't get a proper advice when i wanted to make the trip in the city. So this is my terrible experience in vang vieng for this time.
