“Infinity pool with a view to the Mekong river”

Friendly staff, everyone speaks English. Nice room, good food. The best was the infinity pool with a view to the Mekong river and the forest. The photos I made were taken in the early morning fog, but the afternoon and by sunset it was nice sunny. The hotel provides transfer service to and from the boats, it takes a few minutes. We had a good time at this hotel.

“A Longer Stay Would Have Been Nice”

If we had stayed longer, if it had not been nearly dark when we arrived, if it had not been raining while we were there, I would have given this rambling, multi-leveled hotel 5 stars.

If we had stayed longer, if it had not been nearly dark when we arrived, if it had not been raining while we were there, I would have given this rambling, multi-leveled hotel 5 stars. The property looks beautiful with flowers everywhere, fanciful lanterns, many thoughtful design touches (but many steps!) and, of course, the view of the river and the hills surrounding it are the "icing on the cake". Our room was absolutely huge. Good A/C, good lighting, big picture window looking towards the river. It had a small balcony with a bistro style table & chairs overlooking the Mekong & it was definitely unfortunate that it was raining and that we arrived here just as it got dark, because we could not spend any time on the balcony, although I liked seeing the lights of Pak Beng village twinkling in the dark night. The bathroom has beautiful, matching deep blue cups, trays and comes with blue PakBeng toiletries and accessories; the shower has a rain shower head, small white rocks below & a full sized window (with blinds) overlooking the balcony & the river. The bed was large, comfortable & had the softest and warmest comforter of all the hotels we were at during our 15 day walkabout in Cambodia, Laos & Thailand. Dinner in the restaurant was uninspiring; most likely because we were the only ones there at first. Because we were leaving before breakfast began the next morning, we were given a wonderful takeway bag, including cups of hot coffee, with eggs, rolls, fruit, jam & more. We were thankful for the tuk tuk transportation to & from the hotel to our boat & got a good laugh when the driver told us that the cows wandering on the nearby road usually end up wandering onto the hotel's property each morning, to the wonderment of its guests.
