I booked this little place, because everything else was full or insanely expensive and I feared for the worst, but this place was the most pleasant surprise! Lovely setting, lovely people and to me the very often mentioned rooster was just funny. Make sure to hear the "rooster-story" the owner tells so charmingly. This little hotel was a lot better... more

I spent 2 nights at the Lotus Villa in February '09. And was housed in corner, ground floor, Frangipani room #9, which was an advantage as the (corner) rooms had many more windows than the others there, contributing to a light and airy feel to the accommodations. This was in tandem with the facts that there was only one adjoining... more

Great location in the UNESCO area of Luang Prabang, and also pretty quiet, apart from the rooster in the house across the road... which just adds to the charm. Rooms had good aircon and were decently-sized, each with a balcony with table+chairs, perfect for reading at night. Service was excellent - very friendly staff and the Aussie owner is also... more

I fully endorse the previous half dozen reports. This is a well-run homely place, not really a hotel, more an upmarket guest house, very conveniently placed for most of what you want to see in this wonderful town. We had a first floor room, which was comfortable and clean, and the slightly eccentric layout of the shower and WC was... more

This is a charming small hotel located on the edge of the town center, walkable to everything the town has to offer. In our 5 night stay we upgraded from a first floor $68USD room to a second floor $78USD room to take advantage of the balcony offered in the upstairs rooms. The rooms are roomy, clean and comfortable. Large... more

We stayed at the Lotus Villa for 3 nights and had a fabulous stay. The room was beautiful; with the front door facing the street (top floor) and a balcony over the courtyard. The owner we met was very friendly and gave us some great tips. We had trouble getting the hot water working our first day (user error -... more

Stayed at the Lotus for a few nights to explore Luang Prabang and found it to be an excellent choice. Aside from the beautiful and cozy rooms, the courtyard is lovely for breakfast and the hotel's location central. The staff were also great. They were always very friendly and helpful. They even fulfilled a request from home to get my... more

Stayed for 5 nights at the Lotus Villa in January. The hotel is clean, the service is great and the breakfast was superb. The staff is very helpfull about where to go and a wealth of information. I had a upstairs room with a balcony overlooking the garden area at the back of the room and the front door opened... more

Very comfortable hotel with helpful English speaking owners, a decent breakfast in a beautiful courtyard surrounded by banana and other exotic plantings. My only criticism was the rigidity around rooms and having to change rooms unnecessarily when they could have kept people in the same room. Also, their higher priced rooms seemed worse than the lower priced rooms-noisier and smaller.... more
