there are 2 hotels with the same name,one old in the night market,probably much cheaper and another just 4 minutes away by tuk tuk. the new one had quite comfortable rooms,if you're up at 6.30am about 200 monks go past the hotel and all the residents of the road put some food in each one's container.the hotel are rather mean...

This hotel is actually two different hotels: The main hotel by the night market in the center of Luang Prabang, and another one, identified as Ban Phonheuang about ten minutes walk away from the main hotel. The hotel web site is not clear about this, and it actually shows pictures from both locations as if it is all the same... More

Our family of 2 adults and 2 teenage kids took 2 rooms. Moved 1 room after 1 night as v noisy at front of hotel in morning, so moved to quieter room. Great location. Rooms good and staff friendly enough, but all a little laid back and teenagery for me. Not quite zippy enough for the money. Too much spot... More

Pros: 1. Great location, at the start of the night market (main street). 2. At first, we were worried about the noise from the market & from the sepak-takraw stadium next door. But all activities ceased at about 10pm, and we had a great night sleep! 3. Friendly staff. 4. Free wifi (didnt work in the room, but it works... More

i felt compelled in the case of the Ancient Luang Prabang Hotel... we spent four wondrous days and nights at their Ban Phonheuang location and it was worth way more than what we had spent... Laos is known for smiley friendly people and nowhere on a monthlong trip did we feel more welcome than at this hotel... wonderful facilities (clean,... More

The location couldn’t be better for visiting the historic sites, museum and the night market. The hotel is on the main street at the beginning of the Night Market. There are only 12 rooms and they have names, not numbers. I stayed twice -- the first time, I had the Dog Room which was nicely furnished with twin beds, good... More

The Ancient immediately welcomes you in their charming botique hotels. There were 3 of us traveling, and the only disappointment was that 2 were booked at the Ban Phonheuang - a lovely 2 story elegant location in the neighborhood that allowed us to watch the hundreds of monks wander through each morning at 6am; while the other in our group...

We stayed here in late October this year for our last two nights in Luang Prabang, having to move from other hotel due fully booked. We did not book any hotels in advance prior to arriving in Laos. Luckily we managed to get to see the room before we booked it with one night deposit. It's a lovely hotel with... More

There are a couple of branches of the hotel and we stayed in the one that is a bit further out towards the end of the peninsula. We started off at the hotel right in town as we got the address wrong and they were really helpful and organized a free transfer for us. The rooms are really spacious with... More
