Laos Yoga Vacations

Very large hotel, staff are mostly pleasant. Average maintenance. Breakfast has options, although does not change much over the course of a week. The egg stand at the breakfast serves cold, half-cooked, pre-made omelettes, although the chef was very busy on his phone, for both days I waited there, and could not attend to my request to heat one up. Food at bar is pricy and overly sauced and sweetened. The place could be better cleaned, as I spotted a couple of 6-leg critters in my room and the canteen. Pool was closed during my stay. No speed bumps at the car drop-off area in front of the lobby, and cars race through, so mind when you cross that bridge. Rooms are not very well insulated from noise of adjacent rooms. Mosquitos in the room are a problem, and the tiny incense only seems to make them more hungry. The low cost and river view perhaps is a consolation.

This is a lovely oasis conveniently located. The staff were exceptional and offered a shuttle service including drop off and pickup anywhere within the city.

This Sofitel location is probably one of the best I’ve been to. It’s a boutique hotel but has all the amenities of a 5 star hotel. All the staff from front desk, drivers, restaurant, room attendant, including the general manager were very helpful. They made sure that we had a wonderful stay. The front desk assisted us with tours and getting in and around town. They even assisted in booking us train tickets to our next destination. The resto staff were always friendly and the food selection was great. We also tried the spa which is a must. They provide a free 5min massage daily in the morning. The staff went above and beyond most 5 star hotels I’ve been to. I can truly say that I will be coming back and would highly recommend to everyone.
