"the touch of peaceful, the beautiful of Luangprabang." After a long walk searching for a hotel in mind under the hot sun of April, we stopped at Villa deux Rivieres for a drink (The umbrellas at the front drag me in 555). We didn't book a hotel in advance coz we wanna make sure the hotel we get is just right. Sort of not trust the pictures on the internet. The atmosphere as well as the river view in front of the hotel make us decide to see the rooms. The manager showed all the room types and finally we fell in love the room at the very front which was very cozy and private (rm #6 if anyone wanna try. Thanks god, no more walking and searching.) We have got our own outdoor seats which can relax during late afternoon enjoy drinking and watching great views of the river and temple. The manager also told us that in front of the hotel is the starting point of the traditional boat racing. (may be joining the event next time we come). Best thing to us is the hotel is located in a residential area. We still get a chance to see a daily life of Luangprabang's people which is quite unique. Close to the hotel is the main street which full with restuarants and shops. Just 5 mins walk which is ok to us. I Think, this is a perfect hotel for someone who wanna recharge yourself and doesn't like to stay in the middle of the city. --by Kris--bangkok "Uniquely designed lobby and rooms in a cozy atmosphere on a great location, top" We got this cozy place recommended by friends. Recently opened, nice design, great variety of rooms (thanks for the tour Chris). Interior designer did an excellent job, rooms with good atmosphere, nice materials, good big bed, AC, huge TV, "colonial styled" bathroom. Combine this with plus++ staff and you have a winner. Walk 50 meters and you can cross a bamboo bridge to the other side of the Nam Khan river which floods in the Mekong river. What a stunning view. I made my best video shot there. And there's much more to see. To bad we could stay only 2 nights, but we'll be back. Au revoir, and we will book again. “Brand new hotel with beautifully stylished, spacious rooms in quiet area verlooking the Nam Khan river.” We stayed 5 nights in this brand new hotel, built and managed by Dutch people. The location is away from the main road, overlooking the Nam Khan river and on walking distance from the centre. The rooms are very spacious, beautifully laid out and nicely decorated with touch for detail. The beds are large and very comfortable with tastefully chosen furniture. On the balcony there are comfortable wooden chairs. Everywhere it is spotless clean. The staff is very friendly (Lao hospitality) and helpful. Being Dutch, we felt straight away at home; it is for sure a place to come back. Apr 24, 2010 | Trip type: Friends getaway “Attractive New Hotel, Attractive Location” This brand new boutique hotel has a quiet location along a river. There is a bar with outdoor tables- a touch of Europe in Laos! The owner and manager are Dutch and are friendly and helpful. At the moment (2010) the hotel does not serve breakfast but they include a complementary breakfast at an excellent French bakery nearby. The rooms are all brand new. Ours had a large, shower, was at the front of the hotel and had a balcony overlooking the river. Mar 19, 2010 | Trip type: Couples
