Hotels near River Moon Restaurant and Hut, Vientiane

Best hotel that we stayed at in Lao. It has been set up mainly for Chinese tourists and business people. We enjoyed the accommodation that much we stayed 15days instead of the original 4 nights booking. The rooms where very well set up with everything you need to enjoy your stay. Toiletries, water, bath towels included hand towels and face washers. Found comfy gowens and slippers, even 2 gas masks???? That was a concern 😟. The room was a good size with table and chairs, plus a nice comfy chair to relax. The cleaning staff where very good and very friendly. The reception and security staff where very helpful and friendly. TV was set up totally for Chinese visitors, only down fall. Would have been good to have satellite TV to include other guests. The pool was very good plus cleaned regularly. The gym needs a total revamp. Equipment was old and not working. General maintenance and cleaning of the rooms, hallways and entry was very good. A little bit of mould in the grout joints was the only thing, but not as bad as other accommodation that I've seen.. A good monthly clean would keep this problem under control. The breakfast included was pretty boring, which was a shame. Overall, I would highly recommend.

The staff is hospitable and friendly. The location is good, a 10 mins walk from the main market but there are a lot of restaurants along the river close by as well. The breakfast was simple but delicious. The room was clean but a little room maintenance is required (one of the sideboards was coming off, the shower gel bottle dispenser was broken, the shower to tap button was difficult to use). There is a fridge, electric kettle available. Overall was a satisfactory experience.

I was disappointed with this property. I booked a 2-bedroom unit, and my biggest complaint was the many mosquitoes in the room when we checked-in and although we tried smashing them all between our clapping hands, more continued showing up during our 4-day stay even though we kept the doors and windows closed. We were also greeted with a dirty rag on the bathroom counter that a housekeeper had left and a half-full water bottle on the balcony with a cigarette bud floating in it. The washing machine in the room was disgusting… black mold growing all over the rubber door gasket, and it smelled terrible. The room's safety box stopped working, so a hotel engineer unbolted the old box and replaced it with another one. The next day, the replacement safety box would not open, and the engineer could not find the physical key that is used to open the box when the electronic mechanism stops working, so they had to physically destroy the box door with a hammer, chisel, and hacksaw blade to retrieve my valuables. Lastly, the beds were too hard and the wi-fi was unreliable and very slow. There was no effort by hotel management to apologize for these problems and I will not be returning.

It was my first time going abroad, and I was very worried about the language barrier. But surprisingly, the people who came to pick me up at the airport were Chinese. The Laotians could understand what we said. There were Chinese restaurants, Chinese supermarkets, and vegetable markets nearby, which was very convenient. They also lent us their kitchen and used disposable face and bath towels, which was rare.

Very accommodating front desk staff. Amenities you won't find it better than Vientiane Luxury Hotel are: The Gym, the pool, and the room cleanliness. It could use a little improvement on the elevator video display. It would be nice if the music from the display is more traditional like Lao bamboo flute or traditional music. Also show case the gym and pool more. 9.2 out of 10.

Hotel in stile che si distacca dagli hotel sfarzosi ma impersonali dei dintorni, le camere sono molto grandi e pulite e tutto l'hotel è un tripudio di teak. La posizione è perfetta perché si trova di fronte alla piazza della fontana ma in una laterale della via principale del centro più silenziosa, e si possono raggiungere in 5/10 minuti a piedi praticamente tutte le principali attrazioni del centro come il Wat Sisaket, il palazzo presidenziale e il lungo fiume. Il That Luang è a neanche 10 minuti di tuk tuk. Locali per mangiare e bere a volontà dovunque nei dintorni. Personale giovane e gentile anche per organizzare transfer verso aeroporto /stazione. Colazione con proposte asiatiche, menù continentali ben preparati, frutta e pane tostato e marmellata

Check in date : 25th August 2022. Check out date : 26th August 2022. Location : The hotel is conveniently located right at the heart of Vientiane. It is within walking distance to the Hard Rock Cafe Vientiane and there are nice restaurants around. The junction at the end of the road has a convenience store. We booked LOCA car from the airport and it just costs 100,000 LAK. The area is not too busy but it is just near to the main the main road. Within walking distance, tourists can walk to Sisaket and Night Market. But we opt out for the motorcycle. Reception : The recep area is small but nicely decorated with wooden furniture. We arrived around 8am and the well spoken English receptionist welcomed us warmly. She also direct us to the luggage area and we got to keep our luggage before check in time. Before I depart from my home country, I texted the owner about motorcycle rental. The owner kindly replied me and arranged for us the motorcycle rental that only costs 50,000 LAK per day (which is super cheap). When we arrived, the motorcycle was ready. All in all, I felt welcome in the hotel. Room : My room is in the second floor. It has an amazing courtyard view. The room is spacious, the bathroom is big and clean. The AC works very well. The bed are large and comfy. An electric kettle was provided and 2 mineral waters are there for us. The towels are fresh and the wardrobe is big enough for us to store our rucksacks. Around the hotel : It is a very small but well run hotel. The hotel is clean and spotless. The courtyard is very amazing and the resting area gives a very tranquil vibe. There is a limited space motorcycle parking rental. The hotel also seems very quiet and looks like a very good resting/working place. There are no elevator around so disable people had to reconsider booking here or you can opt for ground floor room right in front of the courtyard. We checked out around 6am the next day so we didnt get to try the breakfast. Satisfaction : We are very satisfied with our stay in the hotel. We highly recommend this hotel for tourists.

The hotel is not easy to find: LOCA app for local taxis does not see this hotel so the passengers must pin the location on the map themselves. The entrance is not really representative - guests have to enter the ”Mister Donut” shop which has predominant sign over the door while the information about the existence of the hotel in this place is just a banner on the pavement. The room price includes a breakfast but it is served from 8 am which makes it impossible to get for someone who must leave at this time (please note that many hotels serve breakfast from 7 am) Finally, in the description of the rooms there is no information that the rooms have actually NO hot water which - for some guests - might make significant difference. The staff speak very little English so any more sophisticated communication (beyond ”Good morning”) must be performed using translator apps.

The hotel is located in the heart of Vientiane, next to the Vientiane morning market, not far from the Arc de Triomphe and Vientiane night market. You can take bus No. 28 from the train station to a stop very close to the hotel, so you don't need to take a taxi. Although the hotel is not a luxury hotel, the hygiene is very good and free breakfast is provided. Staying in this hotel is definitely worth the money! In addition, the hotel owner is very nice and even personally sent me to the airport. Thank you.

VLC (Vientiane Life Center) really win big at its location. Walking distance (basically less than 5mins) to access to Central Bus Station, Talat Sao Morning Market, Supermarkets & Shopping Mall. Room is clean and spacious for a solo traveller like myself. Will definitely recommend to anyone who is going to Visit Vientiane.
