Nice place but it is a little bit abandon. It could be one of the best hotels in the world if somebody would invest on it. The staff is not interesting and probably not well paid; the rooms are awesome but the state of the building is not the best. The city is only a point to visit the surroundings.

Historical, Big, & One of Pakse's Best
Good Amenities, Good Room Service, English Movie Channels
8.3
The staff is a little reserved but after a week they will warm up a little. The breakfast buffet is okay but the room service is good and the same as restaurant pricing. The price is good but the airport shuttle is pricey. The cheaper standard rooms were a better value than the upgraded older rooms.

Old palace that is just average
6.3
the hotel was very big and certainly not a bad place to stay... but it also isn't our favorite place either. the hotel is very old and could use an upgrade and honestly the staff seems pretty indifferent to what is going on.

Character hotel, little dated in some of the rooms
Large rooms, impressive terraces
7.3
it's good value for the size and scope of the hotel, though is not a 'budget' hotel by any means. if you can stay in the palace side it's more impressive and in keeping with the old palace style. service is good, they kept my bag for 3 days while i went on a trek and were very helpful. the room was generally clean and the wifi worked in your room even though it wasn't meant to (should just be in communal areas but worked everywhere).

stayed at the palace for 5 nights and enjoyed the ambience. stayed in vip room which was quite large and well appointed. breakfast was nothing to write home about, though.
staff were friendly and we found them quite efficient.

Big, clean rooms. Nice garden.
Good but impersonal. Clean and comfortable.
6.3
The hotel is very large and felt very empty. I was traveling with my son and his wife and we had been upgraded to deluxe rooms which were very nice. Worth the extra since I looked at the superior rooms and they seemed small and dark.
Breakfast was an apology - better walk down the road to the Bolivar Café. Lovely fresh fruit juices and nice omelettes etc
Staff were cool towards us - when we left they made a fuss about a missing can of beer from the room. We had not drunk it!
The kettle didn't work and there were no teabags (luckily I had some with me and could borrow my son's kettle).
Restaurant Tip:
don't go near café sinouk. it calls itself a french bakery - the croissants are twice the price you'd pay in france! i had the worst "croque monsieur" of my life. it was utterly disgusting. my son had chicken, salad and chips, also disgusting
and his laos wife had a local dish which she could barely eat. my son and i became ill within an hour of eating.. the iced laos coffee tasted okay but the rest.
french restaurant na dao, just near the big thai supermarket called friendship, was excellent; both for laos cuisine and for french - (i live in france so feel well placed to judge). they do a fantastic lunchtime menu for 80000 kip (around 8 euros i think) the wine list is good too.

hotel of character
Wide balconies all around the floors

A really pleasant stay. The hotel was once a palace and has some really interesting features, e.g. beautiful floor tiles and mouldings.
The breakfast was fine. helpful staff. cool corridors and rooms. Clean, redecorated rooms.
Hotel Feature Tip:
Beautiful views all around. You can sit anywhere under the covered wide walkways and enjoy 360 degree views of surroundings.

The hotel met us at the airport and drove us the short distance to the hotel which is an architectural delight. Originally built as a palace it is now a very busy hotel where busloads of Thais arrive each evening. One evening there were three busloads plus a large party of Europeans and each one had a celebration in a different room. Needless to say it was noisey with everyone competing with their own microphone but come 10.30 pm it all stopped and everyone retired to their room for the night.
If you are looking for peace and quiet you will not get here in the evenings. We found it amusing to watch these people enjoying themselves dancing and singing.
The hotel is on the banks of the Siddone River over which our room looked. We had a large room with a comfy bed, although the additional pillows were a little lumpy. It was a lovely spot only marred by the Thai's buses that ran their engines for rather a long time spewing fumes everywhere.
The service was great in spite of the huge numbers that descended each day. It always came with a smile.
Breakfast was a buffet with plenty to choose from. Do try their French toast which you will have to ask for. It is not on the buffet and does not cost any extra - it is quite delicious and comes with a small bowl of local honey. We ate at the restaurant twice, unfortunately the pork fillet I chose was neither cooked, fillet or tender but they did their best to recook it without success and let me choose another dish of fish which was good. Do try their steamed Mekhong fish - it is simply huge and delicious. For best service in the evening go when there are no Thai functions.
We had a great time in Pakse enhanced by our finding Somchit a driver/guide with whom we had 3 fantastic days.
If coming to Pakse again we would choose this hotel.
Sightseeing/Attractions Tip:
We luckily found Somchit a local driver/guide who took us up to the Bolaven Plateau one day, Champasak the next and on our third day he took us down to 4000 islands where we hired bikes and cycled around Don Khun to see the amazing waterfall. He was a great guy and charged a great deal less than the tour agencies which did not impress us in Pakse.
