It is located on the riverside where they serve excellent breakfast every morning. Staff really helpful and friendly. Would certainly stay there again.

I do have to agree a bit on the over-hyphed reviews on TA; only reason why we booked, but what made this place so great for us was the 2 boy staff members (one worked in the office and the other worked during breakfast). The boys were so friendly and engaging. Each and every time that we saw them, they... More

Stayed here 3 nights. Very clean. Great service, owner/manager Noy also makes travel arrangements, changes money and personally walked me (with a parasol over our heads) to a paper store I wasn't able to find. Lovely terrace for breakfast, overlooking the Nam Khan river, delicious fruit plates as with everywhere in SE Asia. Beds are hard! I noticed very firm... More

Recently stayed at Villa Somphong and though considered to be out of the way for some, I personally found it close enough for me. The monks taking of alms commenced directly behind us and was viewed quietly and serenely; without the crowds that tend to gather closer to the town centre. It was a comfortable walk into centre for attractions... More

We chose to stay at Somphong after the glowing trip advisor reviews. It was a very quaint, clean, and friendly guesthouse with a lovely terrace overlooking the Nam Khan. The breakfast was fantastic - the scrambled eggs were the best I've ever had! That being said, the hotel is somewhat out of the way. It would have been nice to... More

We loved the location which was in a quiet spot and was an easy walk from the heart of the old city. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast on the riverside was delightful. Room were spotless, thought a little small. Would stay again.

We stayed here for 5 nights in one of the new rooms in the annex next door to the reception. When we determined that we could not get the wifi in the room they moved us over one room so we were closer to the wireless router. The annex is less than 2 years old and have decent AC, mini... More

I highly recommend this guesthouse. My room was extremely clean and very pleasantly decorated. The bathroom was quite spacious and had one of the best showers I had in my three weeks in Laos (good water pressure and lots of hot water - both rarities there). The views of the river are lovely. Breakfast is on the bank of the... More

Nice, comfortable and well appointed rooms. Very clean, as if everything was new. Breakfast on the terrace by the river is a really nice touch. Tasty pancakes served for breakfast. Not very central, but the centre is within a walking distance, nice restaurants and cafes on the way to the centre.

We stayed at this hotel during our initial stay in Luang Prabang. We booked it through agoda.com. The room was a bit small but definitely clean and nice. It had what we wanted: Fridge, tv, hot shower, fans, AC etc. We had a groundfloor room facing the street. But no problems with noise since the street is not really that... More
