We stayed at this hotel as part of a trip with Intrepid and after reading some of the reviews on this hotel, dreaded what we would find. Not all was bad but it wasn't that good either! The rooms are good size but pillows, bed covers and towels had stains on them and the water when having a shower was... more

Overall our stay at the Phousi was a complete let down. The linen in the room seemed to have been washed in the Mekong as it has a seriously brownish colour. The bedspread was stained (looked like blood) and when I asked the staff to change it this seemed to present a huge problem for them. After 10 mins they... more

I paid $65 per night for this dump. You can find a much MUCH nicer place for this price. This is absolutely the worst Hotel i stayed in during my entire Laos trip. The only nice thing i can say about the property is the location, right across from Mt Phousi and 1 block from the night market and morning... more

Save this hotel for large tour-groups. It lacks charm, service, good food. I wish that we had stayed in a guest house along the river instead. The hotel was drab and dreary and a waste when there is so much more on offer in Luang Prabang more

its quiet and has a nice yard/garden area and a decent location within luang prabang. Wish we could say more nice things, but that's about it. The rooms were just functional, the service and breakfast were below average. Without getting into the whole story, our front-desk expeirences were right out of the twilight zone....it was a nightmare that was almost... more

The minute my taxi from the airport drove up to this hotel but no bell man came out to help with the luggage, I knew I had made a mistake in choosing this hotel. It was only after the taxi driver and I had struggled up the steps with the luggage that a bell man appeared. I had booked for... more

As our booking with Vila Santi was disregarded, we had to go through town. The best choice was Phousi Hotel: Large hotel ground with old garden, old colonial mansion, large and well equipped rooms, the superior for 65 and the other ones 60 USD, for our stay of more than 3 days 55 for the superior. The only difference is... more

We stayed at the Phousi hotel with my husband for two nights in December 2006 and it was a very convenient location, right next to the entrance of the city's flea market. The staff were helpful and polite, and their communication skills were good enough. We had breakfast once and regreted it, as it was just plain boring - not... more

I wish I'd had the chance to read the two most recent reviews of this place before we left on our travels. Our experience was similar . The hotel is State owned and managed and they obviously have no idea how to run a hotel, nor do they care. We had reserved Superior rooms for six nights, were initially given... more

The location - great. The staff is friendly and the grounds are nice. But, the property is run down and certainly NOT worth the price. Having hot water in the morning was a miracle, the towles were so old and stained they felt like sand paper. A $40 room at best if your desperate - but, our travelagent charged us... more
