"The Crowne Plaza is in a great location in Vientiane. The staff are really friendly and check-in was quick and easy. The area around the Crowne Plaza is really walkable and there’s a lot nearby, such as a minimart, Starbucks, a beer garden with live music, restaurants, etc.. The room was really large and spacious. I liked that it was modern and clean looking. Breakfast daily was huge with lots of options. It was honestly a bit overwhelming with the choice. When I was checking out, I needed transport to the train station. The hotel staff gave me the option which between the hotel car and a local taxi. They were transparent with the cost difference. I was happy for the option and they helped me book a local taxi. Book this hotel, you won’t be disappointed."
