Kong Resort Vangvieng

A great choice in Vang Vieng. The shipping container rooms are novel, comfortable, clean and cool. (I think Mr Kong is a bit of a genius.) Good AC, comfortable beds, nice showers, OK breakfast (but you'll need to grab a decent coffee nearby at Kiwi, or a 10 minute walk to wonderful Naked). The location is great. Across the river from the noisier main drag but there's a walking bridge next to the hotel. It's quiet at night. There are 3 very good restaurants nearby- the pizza place, Kiwi and Tulip. The Kong family is wonderful- hard working and honorable. We had a misunderstanding and they took the high road to make it right for their guests. A bit of a bargain imho. Highly recommended !

quirky to stay in a container, staff and site great, location great (free bridge before the road bridge) only downside is by 10.00 the side wall in the sun was so hot I feel the heat radiating inside as I walked beside the bed. However air con did cope with it, but it could so easily be avoided by a bit of canvas between the tops of the containers to shade it.

Everyone that works here is very friendly and helpful. The property is unique and relaxing with a nice pool and great breakfast to start the day. We stayed in two of the rooms. The first was a huge three bedroom house with an amazing view of the mountains from the top bedroom. For the last night we moved to the smaller one bedroom container which was also comfortable and clean with a small deck for relaxing in the evening. When I go back to Vang Vieng I will definitely stay here again.
