Hotels near Tran Hung Dao Temple, Vientiane

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.

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.

Room was large and comfortable. It’s a walk to the main areas but there are a few little shops around. Staff are friendly and offer help and advice. Good stay for one night. A shuttle bus to main areas would be an added bonus.

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.

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.

Check-in was fast. Room was big, clean, with refrigerator, electric hot pot, tv, nice sized closet space, and basic items a traveler might need. Staff are pleasant and spoke good English. Breakfast was decent. It would be good if there are more electric outlets in convenient locations. Due to concern of coronavirus, hotel offered face masks and hand sanitizer free of charge to hotel guests.

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.

Good business hotel, ok location. But you need a transportation to move around as the hotel transportation is higher than the local standard. No Grubhub nor Uber. Nice spacious room w a shower (trip.com stare “no private bath” I was worried but it meant “no bath tub”. Nice pool on the 5th floor w jets (staff will start when any guests are in the pool”. Very helpful staff, nice breakfast. Cons are: if you take a shower on 5th, entire floor will be wet ….. design error I guess.
