          Hard to imagine a more perfect hotel”

          Attentive service, gorgeous location, amazing spa, phenomenal food from Tunisian chef, excellent wine selection

          many of my friends had stayed here and raved about this luxury hotel, but i was always reluctant to stay at a self-contained resort outside of town because i so enjoy being in the centre of luang prabang. on this holiday my friend and i chose the best of both worlds -- three nights at the three nagas right in the centre followed by one night of total pampering at la residence phou vao. it was the right order, because nothing can top la residence phou vao and indeed we never left the grounds because it was pure heaven. i can hardly wait to get back. absolutely everything here is perfect. the suite itself had me giggling at all the lovely touches -- flowers on the toilet and the toilet paper holder??? the spa was perfection and the food was absolutely perfect. one could run out of superlatives here. just one tiny detail sums it all up: i travel with some small dolls that my little niece gave me to photograph all over the world. when i came back from dinner, the person who had done the turn-down service had arranged them sitting up on their own little seat made from a linen towel, complete with a red carnation. now that kind of attention to detail spells a great hotel!

          Beautiful Hotel with impeccable Service”

          The dinner resturant is the best in Luang Prabang with service to match

          From the minute we were picked up at the airport by one of the staff from the La Residence Phou Vao Hotel we knew we were going to enjoy our holiday. The hotel is absolutely beautiful and has a fantastic view of the mountains across the Mekong River. There are many fine hotels in SE Asia but this one situated in the wonderful little town of Luang Prabang is not to be missed. Hopefully the addition of a new runway at the airport will not change things too much. The hotel offers a sunset cruise which is not to be missed. The Captain motored our private teak craft up the river, turned off the motor and allowed us to drift back along the river in time to catch the sunset between two mountains. Just a sample of the detail of the service the staff has been educated to provide. Visit now before anything changes.

          Pak Ou Caves Personal Tour, Restaurant and Romm

          I enjoy my stay at La Residence Phou Vao, which was started with the Pak Ou Caves tour arranged by them. It was perfect, lunch in the island is the best part for us. We enjoy the room with fantastic view and also the unique bath tub. The infinity pool in the spa area is gorgeous and they do make some interesting flower arrangement. Restaurant is great as they really open and wait for us as the last guest there, which we appreciated. However spa services could have been improved by providing drink during before or after spa.

          Sorry! Cant find anything negative about this one.

          This incredible boutique hotel is really something!Under the caring and ever watchful eye of hotelier Philippe Bissig my wife and I Felt we were guests in a private home. La Residence Phoh Vao is so unique its worth the trip to Laos just for the experience. We are a couple of foodies and rate the Lao inspired French cuisine at the top of the best we have tasted and an excellent wine list, all at sensible prices.Infinity pool, and pampering Spa for the girls

          The location. The Pool

          a wonderful stay. lovely room, which was spacious and well equipped and had the spectacular view over luang prabang. the hotel is quite small and feels very intimate, with nothing being too much trouble for the excellent staff. we loved being able to flop into the pool after the heat of the day's activities. although the hotel is slightly out of town, the hotel's transport options worked seamlessly and we never found this to be a problem. if i had one complaint it would be that some of the pricing on trips seemed a bit on the high side, perhaps because everything is rounded in usd. however all the excursions we took were sensational. mainly just the two of us plus a guide, terrific organisation and lovely picnic lunches

          Great hotel with lovely staff”

          We had a mountain view upper floor room which was lovely with views of the mountains and Phu Si ( whenever the smog cleared- Stayed in the low season when they slash and burn in the hills unfortunately). The staff could not do enough for you. Breakfast was nice.We ate in the hotel a couple of times and the food was good and reasonably priced for a 5 star hotel. It was slightly outside of town but a little oasis and they have a shuttle service in the evenings and if they are not on airport runs we used it ad hoc in the day when needed. Only down side are the mosquitoes but they spray the room every evening and provided us with a spray which we used on the odd pesky critters and there is a mosquito net over the bed. I didn’t get bitten whilst staying there but was careful. We also thought the excursions that they provided were over priced so did not use their services for this.

          Peace and quiet, spa, food, service

          this mountain-top resort gets everything right- from flower petals on the bed and toilet-paper dispenser (!) to the lovely asian, continental, magreb cuisine. the staff are lovely and the location is perfect - enjoy the spa, the quiet and the views in isolation if you like, or dip into the sight-seeing of luang prabang just minutes away if that's what you fancy. i already gave this hotel a glowing review in june; the proof of my sincerity is that i returned only six weeks later and stayed much longer.

          geat personalised service

          La Phou as the hotel is lovingly called, is a very special place. An air of calm is apparent and it was a great place to start our overdue holiday. The room was gorgeous with no detail missing. Flowers, fruit trays with the makings of coffee and tea right next to loungers on the veranda. The breakfast beautifully presented and as fresh as..... The general manager John knows all the guests and is always present. As to the Spa, now theres a special place for a weary body. I had one of the best massages ever. Especially designed for bone and muscle pains. Wish I had more time to have another.

Services are very good and comfortable. Management and staff are very friendly and helpful. With almost personal shuttle service, its distance (20-30min walk) from town center didn't become an issue.

          Service and views

          This hotel is amazing! We had a Garden View Junior Suite and the view over the town / mountains – including the Mount Phousi temple – was wonderful. The room was massive with a lovely bath and private balcony, the bed was decorated with flowers on arrival and the nightly turn-down with Macaroons was a nice touch. We ate at the restaurant every night and the food and buffet breakfast were excellent. Of course the hotel is a bit out of town, but really there is no reason to leave the hotel (and the hotel shuttle bus is free and convenient). The spa lived up to its reputation – exceptional menu and the massages were great. Oh, and the infinity pool is lovely!

          We had stayed in hotel for 3 nights. It is a low season so there were not many guests to stay. Therefore it was very quiet instead and we never met anyone else when we were using the pool. There were welcome drinks, welcome fruits, also a gift soap from hotel. Complimentary sunset cruise was very good, too. We had also experienced hotel spa as the spa got some reward. I think the girl who did my spa is trainee as she is not that good. Not worth the money. Good thing is the product used in spa smell really good.

          This is a great place to relax and chill. Very nice view with lush greenery and way better air quality than the hotels situated by the main strip. We saw Phousi hill in the distance as this hotel is located on top of a hill. Breakfast was wonderful and service was excellent. We spent some time by the pool and were served hibiscus juice each time. The hotel has daily activities in the afternoon and provides complimentary shuttles to town. Would recommend staying here to get away from the hustle and bustle.

          Great Hotel but ripping you off...”

          great service, great view

          We went there for a lovely romantic week-end and we had one. The hotel is located on top of a hill with a great view on the mountains. The service is excellent but... Obviously the GM is struggling with making his financial targets and we get charged for any extra peanuts. We booked a junior suite for almost per night, had a romantic 500 candles dinner for 170 USD per head, but got charged 550USD for a bottle of champagne and some extra hundreds of USD for the dinner setup. Having spent almost 2000 USD in 2 days between the room and the dinner, I found it hard to be denied a check out time at 13:00 instead of the standard lunch time (they proposed me to book a room for ...1 hr !!) and got charged 10 USD for a laundry bag that I mistakenly took off the room...
