Lovely place to stay and Pinky and the staff were really helpful and accommodating. Helped us to book coach tickets and arrange a driver to see the waterfall. Was such a lovely stay.

Beautiful wood and open air spaciousness with garden views and courtyard. Lovely personal attention by family who owns the property. Wonderful homemade yoghurt in the mornings. A real hot water deep soaking tub in our room--not an easy find! Lovely housekeeping staff. English is understood and spoken. It's generally quiet unless a large group is visiting or there's an activity in the surrounding neighborhood. This is in the local village, not the tourist village, but they will drive you to the night market, or arrange as you desire.

Great customer service all around! Beautiful hotel. Bikes are included, and I highly recommend. I enjoyed being away from the city and swarm of tourists in the center of town. Breakfast was much better than expected...good mix between eastern and western. Stay there and feel well taken care of!

Relatively small family run property. Very friendly and helpful staff. Staff often goes out of the way to please e.g., provide transport to town center outside of scheduled rides with flexible pick up. Even cooked a quick dinner later at night and with minimal notice. Rooms are clean with quiet surroundings. Ongoing renovations (bathroom upgrade, addition of in ground swimming pool etc) promises an even better stay.

The reviews are very different from the reality I experienced. The hotel is well worn. The bathroom situation very awkward. The service very good. But that was not my main concern and why I choose to leave the hotel after one night and stay elsewhere for the following 2 nights, loosing my non-refundable payment completely. This was my 3rd visit to Luang Prabang and the reason to stay there is to be in the interesting historic district and near the river. This hotel is a good distance away from the main historic part of the city - I am not sure how I overlooked that when doing my booking. You are not really in the main part of the City. The cost here is only a little less than nice old rooms in historic guest houses. I would choose elsewhere unless you are studying at Ock Pop Toc which is nearby.

very good and comfortable.

Pinkie's place is welcoming and friendly, and has a great Laotian style to the rooms. Our room could have been cleaner, but it wasn't

I booked this hotel because of the glowing reviews but we ended up checking out after only one day. I made it clear at time of booking and emailed ahead before my arrival, that a quiet room was sought. However, the main issue among others was the fact that the hotel is next door to a working saw mill! This meant loud sawing from 7am until late afternoon. No chance of a lie in or of enjoying the surroundings of the hotel/relax. On the first and only night the first hour or so was spent killing around twenty mosquitoes in the room, poor plumbing arrangements in the bathroom area where there were stagnant pools of water behind the bath didn't help. We slept in our nets that night. The walls were thin and we could hear next door's TV. Towels were grey and the cornflakes at breakfast were stale (coffee was also rather unpleasant). The owner was fab and arranged a trip for us at a moment's notice but a strong, likeable character doesn't make up for the many problems here. We checked out and spent thre next three nights in another hotel. If you want somewhere cheap to crash and don't mind mozzies, noise and a bad breakfast then this place is okay. I decided that life was too short and paid more money to stay somewhere else.

This hotel is ideal for any tourists who would like to have a cozy and cheerful holiday. The room is cleaned very clean every day and you can have delicious breakfast at the hotel restaurant looking at the sunrise. I personally loved the fresh fruit which was very sweet.

Pinky was great, very helpful at all times. The free shuttle to the centre and free bikes were great too. The breakfast was delicious. Only trouble for us was having noisy children next door, it was blissful peace until the family next door started making so much noise. Walls are thin, maybe request a room far away from children if you’re looking to sleep in. I’m sure Pinky would be happy to oblige.

Room was confused. I order more expensive with bath tub but, but they assigned cheaper room with shower. After explaining room was changed to correct one, but bath tub was dirty and with lack of maintainance for some time as well as bathroom furniture. After informing the owner, we changed the room to another one, but bathroom condition was same as in 1st room. The most annoying was poor sound isolation. You can hear your neighbors talks, closing doors sound, splashed water noise and most annoying running chicken since 4AM. Bedroom area was clean and decent.

Great staff, helpful, free area shuttle

Staff were all very helpful, we had a small issue on arrival but Pinky soon resolved it and throughout our stay was always friendly and helpful, we would definitely go back when visiting Luang Prabang in the future, there maybe a new swimming pool going in for next year. Thank you Vangsavarth hotel for a pleasant stay.

Super friendly and helpful staff. They bent over backwards to help in so many ways.

We stayed in Luang Prabang for only 3 days but our stay was greatly enhanced by the friendly and flexible service of everyone at the hotel especially by Pinky. We wanted to venture to the night market of course and a bus took us there at our leisure but we did have to get picked up by a specific time of which was no problem and we didn’t feel rush because we chose a time that gave us enough time to enjoy the night market. The breakfast is good, make sure you get the omelet because they are not sitting out and are made fresh for you. The room is spacious enough for two people and the king bed is more than enough and soft and comfortable.

Staff very friendly and helpful. Complimentary bike and airport shuttle made being outside the city centre not a big deal.

It was clean and cozy, great hotel. All the staff are friendly and humble people. I want to stay here again. Although the location leave from the city, but there is a free shuttle bus ,there is no problem. Rather, I was away from the city, so I could stay quiet at night. When I talked with the owner, she was thinking to make the hotel more better. I was very happy that because the owner tought about guests can enjoy their stay in Laos more funny. It was a 5 star hotel for me!I will go stay again.(pinky Thanks a lot for your kindness!)

Pinky was AWESOME!!! Hotel is very clean and comfy. Would stay here again.

Everything was good at this hotel . Especially, hotel staff was very nice. They always care about us and adviced when we needed some information.

Excellent customer service! As soon as we arrived, Pinky (owner) gave us an overview of Luang Prabang's sights and things to do. I've travel a lot and no other hotel has done this (keep up the great service).Too bad we already had an itinerary, we only stayed for 3 nights and my parents haven't been back to their home country of Laos in over 40+ years. This was a trip back to see their childhood village. Next time we'll be booking this hotel again.

The best part about the hotel is its owner/manager Pinky. He goes out of his way to help, guide you in LP. We did not have hot water any of the days which was hard. We told him on the 3rd day ( as we thought it was the norm because it was hot in August so they perhaps dont have hot water) and he offered to change the room - we got lazy and did not change. The room appeared damp mostly. If I have to do it again i would choose a hotel closer to main town. But Pinky and his mom are great!!

We walked into the lobby and were immediately met by possibly the most friendly person we have seen in our travels through Southeast Asia (which is really saying a lot, given how friendly people are everywhere!). After getting a copy of our passports, the manager sat us down and showed us a detailed map of the city with his recommendations for places to go. He also showed us pictures and gave recommendations of the fun touristy things to do around town. One of the warmest people we have ever met, Phone really made our short trip to Laos even more special!In addition to the friendly hospitality, the rest of the hotel was great. Our room was very comfortable, with A/C, a shower, and all of the amenities you would expect from a hotel in Southeast Asia. The (free!) continental breakfast was delicious, with pancakes, french toast, eggs (cooked to order), fresh fruit, juice, milk, cereal, coffee, tea, toast, and of course fried rice. There were many bicycles available to ride, also for free, which was very nice as Luang Prabang is a very bike-friendly city. If you dont want to rent a bike, there are free shuttles that go to and from the night market that leave quite often, and shuttles can also be arranged to go to all of the popular tourist destinations.When we come back to Luang Prabang (which may be very soon), we will definitely book here again!

Quaint, maybe rustic hotel. Lovely woodwork gives a wonderful feeling of Loas. The mother and son team that run the hotel are caring and try tobe responsive. Our arrival was during a cold snap, which made our first few days difficult. Since there is no heat in the hotel, even with an extra blanket, we shivered through the night. A shower was a challenge,with low water pressure and limited hot water. Breakfast was served in a covered area outside, again with no heat. During most of the year this probably doesnt matter, but in the cold it was unbearable. The rooms and particularly the bathrooms need updating. Even with these issues we would recommend the hotel, largely because of the staff, but only to those looking for a more rustic setting.

The manager and staff were excellent and very attentive to anything we wanted
