"Näin länsimaalaisena toetysti huomaa aina kaikkea pientä siisteydessä, mutta sekään ei todellakaan ollut mikään huono verrattunq moneen muuhun. Ystävällinen henkilökunta, sijainti ja moni muu tekijä vaikuttaa siihen, että voin suositella täydellä sydämellä paikkakunnalle matkustaville."

"I had high hopes for this place since the photos looked so nice. But soon became disappointed. I got a single room and the bed was truly awful. I felt I was sleeping on a box spring or something even worse. When I walked in there was hair all over the pillows and the towel they gave me was dirty and brown. I tired to sleep on the bed but could not. I left early because it was so bad. It was only $1 more for the single room so that’s why I chose it. But I can’t believe I paid $23 for one night in...

"I only stayed here for 12 hours as a stop point but I almost wish I stayed longer. Very clean, welcoming and comfortable place. Cute theme and good location. Beds are comfortable and allow good space. You get a free coffee or tea once you arrive which is nice. They looked like they had a lot of activities you could do. I would come back."

"Tv broken. Air con broken. Toilet gurgling all night. Place stinks of cigarettes but has sign saying if smoke in room is $200 dollars fine. Not worth $18"

"SCAM! The place doesn't even exist anymore. And the number doesn't even pick up when called. I demand a refund! Was so stressed when I arrived and had to walk around finding another place. "

"Staff was very nice, only thing to consider, is next to the street so a little bit noisy"

"My partner and I chose to stay here as it was only half an hour (walk) to the Thai embassy. The reception area is lovely as are the bathrooms. The dorms however are a little dated but not too bad for a two night stay. Unfortunately the bed above ours was broken in the middle and looked like it could cave in any second ( thank god no one slept up there) The bathrooms came with free shampoo and shower gel which was a nice comfort and toilet roll is supplied. There is a rooftop terrace which is...

"This hostel is huge, and was mostly empty when I stayed, so I had a whole room to myself and it seemed like I had almost the entire level! Good breakfast and lovely staff, hot showers. The only issue was an ant problem in the bathroom, but it was manageable."

3/5 Okay

In two minds about the Amari...

"We left the Amari shaking our heads... On one hand, it probably is the nicest hotel in Vientiane, staff always smile and greet you, and the value for money was great. On the other hand... MASSIVE IMPROVEMENT IN TRAINING ARE NEEDED! Before even arriving - I would have cancelled this booking if it had been refundable because my email correspondence with the hotel manager was SO BAD. I emailed asking for help booking the Laos-China high-speed train from Vientiane to Luang Prabang and was immediately told "no". I had to write again explaining that I cannot book it online and every other 4-5 star hotel I've ever stayed at in my life has helped with transport/transfer as a standard part of concierge services (have lived in SEAsia for 15 years and found Thai hotels to generally be amazing). Again, I was told "no, we don't do this" and bizarrely given a "Facebook" link and told it was the "official site"?! It absolutely is not. I was given incorrect information and refused any assistance. I asked to connect with the hotel manager and my experience was just as poor and frustrating - they failed to give any relevant and important information and refused to help. I would have cancelled at this point had I booked a refundable room. For anyone reading this far wanting to book the Lao Bao 2-hour train, in some regions, you can download the app to book *only* 3 days ahead. Staff lacked knowledge and training in all areas. They also couldn't confirm train station address for taxi. "

"I highly recommend the Holiday Inn Vientiane— it’s by far the best one I’ve stayed at! The hotel is new and very clean, the staff is quick and efficient, and room service was great. The beds and pillows were super comfortable, making for a restful stay. The gym, sauna, and steam room were a much-needed bonus. I’d definitely come back!"
