The front desk personnel were very friendly and efficient. Also, the room was clean, well appointed and the bed was comfortable. The free breakfast buffet had a great selection of local and western dishes and featured delicious fruits. I would definitely stay here again.

Very nice staff, however management was completely incompetent. On Wednesday morning the milk was spoiled and made me sick. Many other guests complained about the sour milk, but management was extremely slow responding to the problem. Management proved conclusively that they don’t care about the guests at the hotel. The breakfast buffet was absolutely horrible. The ONLY breakfast food available was fried eggs cooked HARD and served COLD. There was no scrambled eggs, no over easy eggs, no bacon, no ham, no sausage, no potatoes, no beans, no juice, nothing…. ……just fried eggs cooked HARD and served COLD in a huge disgusting pile. This hotel has the WORST breakfast buffet that I have ever experienced. And management proved their incompetence by not checking expiration dates on the milk, resulting in sick guests. And management simple didn’t care about the problem. AVOID this hotel!

Good value for the area and hotel standard. The area is convenient to all the restaurants, riverside and the night market. What really shine is the staff. Always courteous and accommodating. Some of the staff have a high level of English and others make a great effort when communication is an issue for non-Lao speaking guests. Would definitely stay again.

Best stay and would book again. Rooms are on the small side but I expected that. We had a window but some rooms don’t. There was a strong smell of cleaner, or my Thai GF, said it was some chemical to deter bugs. It stayed in the room until about midnight and then went away. Weird. Breakfast is basic but tasty. They had fried eggs and some meat. Better options right down the flattery at French bakery. City center and walkable to most things in that area.

THEY KICKED US OUT!! We booked for 2 nights at this hotel through Expedia in November 2023. One day before our arrival, Expedia sent us a reminder email about our reservation like check-in time etc Upon reaching the hotel for check-in, we were informed that our booking was canceled, despite never canceling it ourselves. After some discussion, the hotel allowed us to stay for 1 night but informed us of a room change the next day. The next day, to our dismay, the replacement room offered was not as per our initial booking - a Superior room with a balcony. Instead, they suggested a smaller room without a private bathroom, which had a noticeable stale odor. We declined the offer. After speaking with the manager, they allowed us to keep staying in our room for that night. However, less than 2 hours, the hotel staff insisted we move again. So, go ahead and book this hotel if you’re yearning for a holiday filled with delightful surprises like canceled reservations, unexpected room changes, and the sweet aroma of neglect lingering in your room.

More than what we expected
We loved our stay to riverside hotel, a true luxury hotel. Bed is comfortable, design is nice and lots of place in the room. The staff is very nice, they speak good English and they helped us with so many things. The breakfast is a buffet and have a lot of choice. It’s very close from night market. Only thing is we had a communicating room and we could hear the conversation on the other side very well but with good earplugs everything is ok.

Modern renovations with clean and elegant rooms and comfortable beds. Nice to have a walk in shower. Nice breakfast buffet included in fruit board. Staff are courteous and friendly. Still working on establishing English instructions. For example the advice for when to leave for an international flight meant we waited several hours for the flight check in to open. The location was excellent for walking to restaurants and along the River.
