“great place for local food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2012
4
people found this review helpful

Although we did not stay here We ate in the Sabai cafe twice and were very impressed with the cleanliness,the food was inexpensive and generous portions there was no service charge and tax common in many places which added 20% to the cost of the meals.The staff were very helpful and the general manager was always on hand to provide that little bit of extra information and help. The philosophy of the hotel is fabulous a quote from Ghandi is on the wall about wanting to serve customers and meet their needs and wishes would that the top end hotels had the same approach!
Thoroughly recommend this venue

This is a very pleasant hotel with efficient staff and a good place from which to explore Vientiane. A reasonable sized room and bathroom. Clean and comfortable. The breakfast was just adequate. Free Wifi in the lobby.

“a good place to stay to see Vientianne”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 November 2011

A great location from which to see Vientiane, it’s close to shop, bars, and transport links. The hotel is .middle of Vientiane. It is also with a few minutes’ walk of the museum, and several monasteries. The hotel itself is very functional and offers all the facilities you could ask for from free wi-fi to lovely food. The staff are very friendly and will try and help you as much as they can so if you want a decent hotel to sleep in then you couldn’t ask for much more.

“Conveniently located, comfortable accommodations”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 October 2011

people found this review helpful

Probably more 3.5 stars. Nicely situated only a few blocks from the river and close to all the nearby bars and restaurants that cater to tourists.

A bit lacking in charm but liked the cleanliness of the place. While the room is nicely air-conditioned, the bathroom isn't and so you have to be sure to close the door to not let all the hot air come in.

Overall rating drops a bit because the hotel is a bit pricey for Laos standards ($72/night).

But the included breakfast was fantastic ... nice assortment, including your choice of made-to-order noodle soup, rice or omelet (i think?). I went with the noodle soup both times and it was delicious.

Service was relatively helpful (but it seemed like there were a disproportionate number of staff present, many of who did very little other than standing around and opening doors). (but we later discovered that this is more a reflection of Laos in general than the hotel)

Room Tip: Order the delicious noodle soup!

“comfortable and convenient, not much character”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 October 2011

person found this review helpful

we stayed here for one night and were only in vientiane because we were flying back stateside from vientiane. it was convenient and centrally located. it suited us fine for an overnight stay and seems more like a sterile, business traveler hotel; i think if we were staying longer, we would have preferred a hotel w/ more character. we didn't have breakfast there - the buffet didn't seem particularly interesting and went to joma bakery a few minutes away.
