This is a Fancy Option In Savannakhet!”

I enjoyed my final night in Savannakhet at this hotel. It really is beautiful. It's as if they're preparing for a boom in this town which hasn't happened yet. It was nearly empty. I may have been one of 10 guests in this large, luxury spa & hotel. The fitness room is one of just a few in Savannakhet, so if you want to work out this may be your only option. The food is overpriced but delicious. The staff is very helpful. It's Savannakhet, so not everyone has a great command of English. Gorgeous pool. Beautiful views. It's a little pricey for the town, but you do get what you pay for. The rooms are nicely designed. If you've got the extra money, definitely spend at least one night here. I chose it for my last evening in Savannakhet, after staying in much cheaper accommodations.

Best hotel in Savannakhet”

I usually come to Savannakhet once a year and this is the hotel I stay at. As usual, the staff are friendly and efficient. The room was comfortable, all TV channels worked and the wifi was reliable and fast. I once again enjoyed a swim in the pool, although due to inclement weather (it was raining the first evening and again multiple times in the morning) it was a short swim in between showers. Unfortunately, the one weakness of this hotel is it's breakfast. I was the only guest in the breakfast hall and some items like eggs were made to order, everything else was ala carte (like fruit), but that was about all they had to offer. I can understand not offering a buffet when there are few guests, but the hotel should at least provide a more decent breakfast.

A Relaxing Stay”

Savannakhet does not have a huge range of hotels but this is one of the best ones in terms of size and facilities. Sited on the banks of the Mekong, a little way from the centre of town, it is popular with both local dignitaries and travelling foreign organised parties touring Laos. There was even a complete film crew staying when we were there. I spoiled us by booking a suite and wasn't disappointed. It was very spacious with great views over the river. It also had a Jacuzzi built for two (it could have fitted three) which was innovative! Breakfast was good and plentiful and we did eat in the restaurant a couple of times in the evening and was pleasantly surprised by some of the dishes available. The hotel is a little way from town but not too far from the night market area where there are some excellent restaurants for all tastes but with a lovely French ambiance. The hotel can transport you around or you can get a tuk-tuk Was there for four nights in all and would stay again

Nice.”

Delicious food at a good price. However, the coffee is awful... But has kettle and cups in room, so just bring your own. The pool is nice, but something wrong with the water. Made eyes burn badly. Red for 2 days... Will maybe stay again since options in Savannakhet are limited. Liked better than staying at the casino.

Stayed for two nights whilst renewing Thai visa.”

Best stay in Savannakhet yet having previously stayed at Savan Vegas. The Daosavanh was much better in every respect, albiet more expensive. It was convenient for Thai consulate visa renewal. Complimentary minibus back to Friendship bridge via the Thai consulate. The pool complex was nice and quiet and the gym was good. Breakfast was good and the room comfortable with good wi-fi connection in room. Would definitely stay again on my next visit.

The beat option in town”

A bit to the south of the city centre but within a 10 minute stroll along the Mekong, this is, by local standards, a classy hotel. The staff are friendly and helpful. The garden and swimming pool are well kept and pleasant to use. The room was clean and very comfortable with a lovely bed. However, the wifi everywhere doesn't work. There is a giant spa facility completely underused, but we enjoyed the gym, sauna and steam room with plunge pool every day. I was a bit disappointed with the food which was expensive and not great so do eat out. Should you wish to have a lazy stay in a resort kind of stay in Savannakhet it is the best (probably only) option.

Best Choice in Savannakhet ”

Staff are all very helpful, and this is the most comfortable and professionally run hotel in Savannakhet. I recommend it to anyone visiting Savannakhet.

Relaxing hotel”

Savannakhet is an interesting town. This hotel is a little south of town, but it was a pleasant walk into town. The hotel is well maintained and clean. The restaurant felt like a training school for new staff...hyper attentive.

Comfortable and luxury”

The hotel is located a little far from the center but you can easily get a tuk-tuk from there.Remember to call or email the hotel when you arrive at the aiport or bus station so they can pick you up without charging. Although I speak Lao fluently, the staff just gave me keys when checking-in and someone brought me to my room but they didn't really bother to provide me further information or didn't really want to discuss. For the standing of such a hotel, this was what I could expect. Overall, this is a good hotel in Savannakhet.

If in Savanakhet”

If you need to go to Savanakhet the Daosavanh Resort is a clean, nice place to stay. The inn is a bit out of the way but still within walking distance to a few restaurants and you're right on the river. My one main complaint is the WI-FI. Very poor connections if you get a connection at all.

Best Hotel in Town ”

My stay in Daosavanh was fantastic, the hotel got everything for you and best view just in front of the Mekong River. The room is neat, clean and good condition. Will come back again.

Thai consulate run”

Not extremely close to the Thailand consulate, but the price of the tuk tuk is the same anywhere you go so 5 blocks of 5 kilometers is the same. Nice pool and facilities such as a spa and excellent gym. You can rent a bike if you want to ride along the Mekong. The room was large and comfortable. It was a very clean hotel. Breakfast was okay and the selection was leftovers from dinner, plus eggs or omelets made to order, toast, cereal, juice and of course, Dao coffee. A standard hotel breakfast buffet. I had dinner and it was fine. Large portions of the Thai/Lao food, but a little bland. My only complaint would be that the bathtub did not fill with hot water and drained out of the tub despite the plunger being enabled. Hot water was sufficient for a shower, but not a bath in any event. The hotel only had a few guests, but it was fully staffed.

Best of a bad bunch in this small town”

We weren’t able to make the hotel on the first night we booked and they weren’t prepared to change the dates for us which was very disappointing. However we made it for the second night and although the resort is clearly fairly old it was in good condition with a nice developed garden and old but decent swimming pool and gym room. Staff were really friendly and the free mini van back to the border was a nice touch and allowed us to save being ripped off by the local tuk tuk drivers again. Food was decent and the beer Laos was cold and delicious. Overall the best place we’ve stayed in Savannakhet just a shame they didn’t offer us a refund or help us to rebook for another night.

Exceptional”

Nice hotel if you have to stay in Savannakhet. Great pool.

Best hotel in Savanakhet”

Other than being a bit isolated, the Daosavanh is a great place to stay. Smiling staff, service oriented front desk, and adequate food and drinks makes your stay extremely comfortable.

Nice riverside hotel with all the trimmings ”

Arriving at the hotel in the evening, check-in was very swift and I was thus immediately whisked to my room. Very friendly hotel staff. My room was functional in every respect, the WiFi worked very well throughout my stay. The pool was great, and I had it all to myself on both occasions I went for a swim. The only real let down was breakfast. For a hotel of this caliber, it could do a lot to improve it's game. They had boring white toast with cheap jam and margarine rather than baguettes with butter and either local or imported jam made from organic fruit, and a larger variety of options and proper tea and coffee (not the instant stuff) would have made a big difference. The chicken curry on the first morning was good, but I found myself having a second breakfast outside. Location is very quiet, especially at night - but best suited to those with their own transport as it's about 1km to the nearest shops and restaurants. However, tuk-tuks are usually available or you can charter one.

Nice facility, but the service is not good”

I booked this hotel, because it was apparently the "best" hotel in Savannakhet. The facility such as the spa and restaurant is nice looking, and the view from the pool is great with mekong river right in front of the hotel. However, the service is not very satisfactory. I asked if I can borrow a hair dryer at around 11pm, but the staff with very limited English said they "don't have, because the housekeeping staff already went home." I asked if I can speak to the manager, but he/she also has gone home. A hotel should have a hair dryer, and the staff, not only housekeeping, should know where it is kept. Also, there were a lot of flies in the hotel including the restaurant, and it is not very hygenic... I felt there's room for improvement in the service of the hotel staff.

A relaxed and friendly gem beside Mekong river”

A perfect place for a relaxed and refreshing "timeout". Nice rooms with comfortable beds. A beautiful garden, spa and fitness in a separate building, restaurant with bar and karaoke facilities... everything nicely decorated. Taxi and tuc-tuc available. The sunsets over the majestic Mekong river are memorable. Above all the discrete, respectful and friendly staff made it very easy to enjoy the stay.

quiet and comfortable”

only stay here for one night. Comfortable bed, quiet resort, probably the nicest hotel in Savannakhet. Breakfast could be better.

great hotel and service!”

very close to the consulate but a step out of the main town. certainly a tuk tuk ride away. It was only as we were leaving that we were told that there were complimentay tuk tuks in the hotel to use. its not written anywhere and reception tont give you any details. if you ask then they are happy to tell you! that ment setting off with the 2 year old to eat out. very few Tuk tuks at night apparently. Not good walking alongside the road, many holes to fall down. There were some niggles. This is expensive accommodation and the food and services are expensive... remember this is Lao. A massage is 400 bahts, thats well over Bangkok prices and im a guest! We were down for breakfast at 9.10 the first day. It starts at 6am and finishes at 10am. however, at these prices i expect the last breakfast to be as good as the first. They run stuff down to save money. However, ask and they put it right. New coffee, orange juice, fried eggs, bread etc. However, they dont offer unless you point out the problem. I ask for an extra sachet of coffee the first night. This was not possible. i could walk over to the restaurant and buy one but that was it. at this level of hotel i feel that was unecessary! However, it was a good enjoyable stay overall. A bath in the room would have been nice. as would a few extra guests in the hotel. eating in the evening and absolutely no other guests there was a little strange, however, we ate simply dishes and it was still 200 bahts a dish which would be 35 or 40 bahts in my Thai town. When we ate out the food was still expensive but not that bad!
