Hotels & Accomodation

From the old capital city of Luang Prabang to the southern Mekong outpost of Pakse, a range of quality accommodation options are available throughout Laos.

Luang Prabang, in particular, has some beautiful residences, many former homes to royalty are now converted into small boutique hotels. For those who enjoy the Aman exclusivity, Amantaka takes a centre stage. Set in a converted hospital and prison,the contemporary decor stands in stark contrast to the notable Hotel De la Paix, with its high ceilings, suite options, and private pools. For spectacular views outside of the town, Belmond’s Le Residence Phou Vao is a favorite five star choice, as is the excellent Luang Say Residence with its colonial feel and views of the surrounding countryside. We love the centrally located boutique properties, overlooking the river and in the heart of old Luang Prabang. The bright and stylish Victoria Xiengthong and the architectural charm of Satri House, in many ways epitomizes a bygone era.
