Cheap city hotel with no frills
Swimming pool, cheap and clean
4.7
Villa Sisavad is a cheap city hotel option in Vientiane. It is about 3km from the river front/eateries and is quite hidden away from the main road. Rooms were quite large and were clean. There are many small shops outside to buy snacks and water, but there are not many eating options (all very local). The swimming pool is good and there is a nice outdoor sitting area. Overall just a cheap option, but if you are looking for a place with more options and closer to the action then look elsewhere.

Great value away from the riverfront
7.3
We spent 1 night at Villa Sisavad on a recent trip through Laos, having first stayed here 6 years ago and enjoying it then. It's expanded since our first visit, but still has charming, clean rooms centered around a garden and a small pool -- these are definitely the pick of the rooms.
We had the hotel breakfast which was an extra $3 per person -- it was OK, but you can do better elsewhere.
In terms of location, it's certainly away from the entertainment of the riverfront. But you can walk there in 15 minutes or take a tuk-tuk in 5 minutes.

5.7
this place was not easy to find. restaurants in this area are scarce. animals were running on the roof of our room, but none fell through! bathroom was only passable, they arranged a songtao to the northern bus station for us, which is about 10km away for a fee = to getting the songtao on our own. We wouldnt recommend this place for more than 1 night.

Nice Place to Stay, Poor Location
Nice Pool, Big Rooms, Very friendly staff
7
Our stay was very good, the rooms were clean, the pool was nice and the staff was very friendly. I would say the only downside to this hotel was it's location. It's not near much especially the downtown area, to take a taxi or Tuk Tuk to downtown was very expensive. But if you just want a nice place to relax and swim this hotel is a wonderful option.

Nice Hotel in vientiane
clean room nice pool and big garden
4.3
a nice hotel if you like to walk or rent a motorbike as it is badly located let's say no restaurants, no ATM'S well nothing around some shops only and they sleep before the chickens do
But if you want to relax and read books or write something or review it's the right place

comfortable, quiet, old-fashioned hotel
Friendly staff; good budget hotel, with a pool; off the beaten path in a quiet family neighborhood, ten minute walk to market and tourist area

Very homey. I stayed an extra night, and the hotel rate turned out to be lower than Agoda's.

Good place to stay
Decent location, reasonable value, comfort
7.7
Our room was good, provided with AC, a refrigerator (which was stocked with complimentary water daily), TV, and wifi (which was slow and spotty, but that is a common experience throughout budget guesthouses in Laos). Room was cleaned daily, bed was comfortable. There is a nice swimming pool available, and a common area outside with tables and benches. The location is decent, any easy walk to Patuxai Gate, and about 15-20 mins toward the riverfront. Value was reasonable as well.

Good hotel in this price range. Quiet area, around a lot of local shops & buffets. 20 minutes walk to city center & backpacker's area with restaurants & bars.
