Yes, this hotel has a lot of charm and this is probably the only positive aspect of it. Insulation between the rooms is non-existing and the karaoke place next door makes it difficult to sleep early. And, on the top of it, it's quite expensive for beautiful Luang Prabang. More

I read sometimes that people are not happy with various aspects of their hotel. Everyone has a view and some like what others don't. This hotel epitamises luang prabang, it is part of the whole experience. Yes the monks next door rise at 3.50 to to the call of a gong but the whole city is given over to buddhist... More

Wow I am so surprised at the amount of reviewers who have complained about the noise! I just stayed here for 4 nights and I had no problems. It was so quiet and peaceful.. Maybe because the hotel was not full as it is their quiet season I think? Anyways I slept easily and was never woken once. The service... More

The location of the Villa Maydou is very convenient, not in the very center of Luang Prabang but since it's a pretty small city you can go everywhere easily. It's located next to a Temple but I don't agree with those who say it's noisy. It's a very quiet place with a very nice garden where you can have a... More

We loved the position and the peaceful garden close enough to the city to walk but far enough out to be quiet. Our first room faced the old bridge and we found it noisy as the scooters seemed to keep driving past through the night. However the hotel were happy to move us to a fantastic room over the reception... More

With a soothing atmosphere, the Villa Maydou is a perfect place to have a pleasant stay in Luang Prabang for vacation as well as for work. The owners are warm welcoming and willing to help. The restaurant serves great lao food complemented by not harassing service. This familial place is worth it! More

I am not used to write reviews (and as a French you will forgive my poor English). But now that I am back to work (…) I feel too bad not to share the wonderful memories we have from our last stay at villa Maydou. We stayed with my wife at villa Maydou for 1 week last December 2009. The... More
