Sabaidy Guesthouse in Vientiane … this is the coolest place in town. always a few good freaks knocking about, cheap, lots of character, owned by real people. not one for the guidebook crowd, but a good call for the weird and unwashed. as for the multilingual father who watches the news in half a dozen languages but only grunts in response to questions -- brilliant.
Sabaidy Guesthouse in Vientiane … I stayed at this guesthouse for close to a month when I was in Vientiane. The family was one of the nicest I have ever met on my journeys. The father took a while to warm to some of the guests, but if he brings out the Lao lao watch out, as it will be a big night.
Sabaidy Guesthouse in Vientiane … As I currently live in Thailand without a long visa, I visit Vientiane and with it the Sabaidy guesthouse every month. I meet interesting people every time who are willing to go for a drink, a talk, or a little bit of hanging around. It's cheap, yeah, but there are many people together and that's fun. The bathrooms are not too bad (similar to mine in Thailand) and the food is good. And there is a balcony. Happy days!
Viradessa Guest House in Luang Prabang … We stayed at the Viradessa (in December, 2003) with our family of three children, and found the rooms more than adequate. Their new bungalows near the waterfall are well worth the visit. The restaurant on the riverbank is a great place to have breakfast, or relax with a drink as the sun goes down. The four-star rating is with a backpacker's view in mind!!!
Mixay Guesthouse in Vientiane … This place has a good location in heart of the old town. The rooms are too hot, and not so clean, like the bathroom. Guests are not allowed. You can find cheaper places with better quality. The price in 2002 was 5 dollars for single room.
Hotel Maly in Phonsavan … Excellent hotel, delicious food, and gracious management and staff.
Settha Palace Hotel in Vientiane … A truly first class operation. Very helpful and professional staff. The all marble bathroom had a tub as well as separate glass enclosed shower. The manager personally helped me secure reservations in Luang Prabng. The hotel employs an antique British automobile to meet and return to the airport. The driver lifted all my luggage into the airport and saw it through security. Outstanding service during my three-day, two-night visit of January 3, 4, 5, 2007.
Villa Merry Lao-Swiss in Luang Prabang … We just came back from Laos and enjoyed it very much. We booked the Villa Merry Lao-Swiss from Europe, so we got a better price, 40 instead of 60 US, to much I think now. Prices are quiete high there, we wondered, but 60 US is to much. It is a good hotel, good beds, nice and big rooms incl ac, TV and a fridge. The rooms downstairs are very small for two persons with some lagguage and you live next to the neighbours chicken. the upstairs rooms are much bigger. Only the hive bar at the other side of the street will keep you awake until 1pm. Breakfast is good and the service ok. Next time I would look for another place.
Sabaidy 2 Guesthouse in Pakse … The only dorm option available in Pakse, and one of the only in Southern Laos, Sabaidy 2 has unfortunately let its standards drop. It is, however, easy to find. Everyone in town seems to know it, especially the numerous tuk tuk drivers. If you're still having troubles, find Adams Internet on the…
Sabaidy Guesthouse in Vientiane … Sabaidy Guesthouse does not get very good reviews in guidebooks – something about it not being very clean. The reception and rooms were fine, if a little small. But once you started to go up to the rooms the families' stuff seemed to be everywhere (and a lot of it appeared to be rubbish)…
Viradessa Guest House in Luang Prabang … Viradessa has a number of distinctions. It was one of the first guesthouses in Luang Prabang, has a river front location and seems to be the only dormitory option in town. If dorms are your thing then you'll have to stay here and generally it's a good choice.
The dorm room is downstairs in a…
Thakhek Travel Lodge in Tha Khek … A jewel in the crown of sleepy Tha Khek, Thakhek Travel Lodge houses all sorts of accommodation options, from a large airy dormitory to the more expensive tastes.
In the huge, wooden building, the dorm contains about ten beds, and whilst it could be a little cleaner, the beds are reasonably…
