Nice apartment, but a bit far from city center”

This residence hotel offers small apartment equipped with kitchen, living room and balcony. We booked a “Studio Premier”. 85€/night. The building and the rooms are new, clean and well equipped. I like the separate toilet and bathroom. The staff is friendly, responsive and helpful. The place offers a good value for the price. The only small issue is that it is about 30 mins walk to the city center and going to Vientiane city center with the car became a real nightmare when you want to park it.

Exceptional”

Overall we enjoyed tge stay at Somerset Vientiane. 10 min by car to airport and 10 min walk to Riverside restaurants. Nice and clean swimming pool. Complimentry self operating laundry and airport shuttle.

Very nice room.”

I would recommend Somerset. It seems geared to the business traveller, but is good for the tourist as well. It is about ½ mile from the main tourist area, but is an easy walk. There are restaurants around. I recommend the Chinese restaurant across the street. The breakfast is optional, but worth the price. The room is large and keep immaculately clean. There are facility in the room for cooking. The internet sputtered the first day, but after that was strong and steady.

Good standard service appartment”

Quite a good choice for a business trip to Vientiane. Rooms are large, clean and comfortable. Location is central enough to be walking distance to most attractions. The large swimming pool, tennis and gym are nice plus.Two downsides however: the hotel have no Free Wifi, and the service is a bit inconsistent (always missing something after maid service, one day coffee, the other soap...). But overall a good value for price.

Revamped Hotel”

The hotel has revamped quite recently, cosy and clean room. I had accidently selected on extra bed which was being charged, requested for refund but rejected due to the rules & policy as both Agoda and Somerset said. If the booking term is pay later and free cancellation, I will have no problem to cancel whole booking and re-book again. Seems both Agoda and Somerset doesn't have the flexible way to resolve the issue. Chose to said is rules, cannot be amend.

Quaint, better than expected”

This place was nice. The staff was friendly and cute in their attempts to give us info despite not the best English. The apartment was nicer than the pictures. Vientiane is kinda boring, but we were glad to have a nice room to hole up in.

Good value, minor issue”

We had a good stay in one of the apartments. My wife and i traveled with our 2 year old baby and the hotel had a crib for us. The apartment is a good size, plenty of storage room and closet space. The hotel is located within walking distance of temples, restaurants and city center. Also just a 10 minute drive to the airport. The hotel pool is nice and has a small kiddie pool. They also have a nice tennis court. The only minor problems were the internet, very slow in our room. Many times did not work at all. The staff is helpful but unfortunately don't speak much English. So asking advise for a restaurant or getting directions is extremely difficult. Also the AC in the room was a bit loud but not enough for us to complain about it. Overall the positives outweigh the negatives and its in my opinion a good value. I would stay again if i ever go back to Vietiane.

Satisfaction!”

I stayed here for more than a week (9 days). For service apartment it give you such an amazing experience which you just can say there and feel at home. The facilities are very good, they have laundry section which you can use for free and it located just nearby the pool and gym that you can spend your time waiting for your laundry there. there is a market which open on Monday and Thursday and also mini mart if you need things to cook. For business and family traveler I recommend this hotel for you.

Nicest place in Vientiane!

Laos Holiday”

The apartment was well appointed, the staff and services were average, it appeared the more we spent on accommodation the less customer services we received. There was not porter services and we felt as we were short term customers, it was almost frowned on as we were processed without any personal connection to our stay

One of the Best Choices in Vientiane”

Clean. Comfortable. Location is okay. Shops, restaurants, and the Mekhong River are not too far away. The big swimming pool and laundry room are a big plus. Families with small children will appreciate the big refrigerator and microwave oven in the room. There is a small kitchenette with a stove, along with dishware and silverware. Pretty good internet connection. The hotel offers free airport shuttle. The staff were pleasant and helpful to us. Checking in and out was a breeze.

Real service issue for an international brand”

I used this place many times in the past for my stays in Vientiane, and service has never been their strong point, but it was this time poorer than ever. I am a regular customer of this place and requested a quiet room, back facing, as we were coming with a small baby. We were assigned the worst and noisiest room of the property, on ground floor with windows directly on the car park, facing main street. I asked for a change and the staff was totally unhelpful, while the property was clearly not full. After a very long wait I requested to call management who just asked us to pay more if we wanted to change rooms. In addition the place starts to show its age, has a serious mosquitoes and maintenance issues (shower either too hot or too cold, insufficient AC in the bedroom There are now more and more options in Vientiane, including Crowne Plaza just opposite, i will not return.

Mostly Good, A Few Issues”

The rooms here are large and the pool is clean. The cleanliness is satisfactory, but we booked our room over a month in advance and requested a non-smoking room because we don't like the smell and I have asthma. The day before we arived they emailed to say no non-smoking rooms were available. The room we had was better than other smoking rooms I have had stayed in, but still had a faint smokey smell. Something in the environment bothered my asthma a little, but I'm not sure if it's related to the smell. The Internet is much faster than I expected, so this is good. The pool is nice and enjoyable, I like it, but be careful around the light fixtures because there rusty sharp metal things sticking out of them - I scratched my hand on one but didn't bleed. The housekeeping is attentive, but the front desk doesn't communicate with them much. If you need something in your room call them directly rather than mentioning it at the counter or you might be waiting a while. Make sure you have everything you need in the room for the night (toilet paper, toiletries, etc) Before housekeeping goes home. For some reason they only gave us toiletries for one guest instead of two, and I had to wait until the next morning to brush my teeth because they couldn't get into the supply area. The staff are friendly. They will pick you up at the airport but you have to contact the property directly to schedule more than a day in advance. The international support desk will just tell you that the property doesn't do airport transfers which is incorrect. We wanted to check out at 2:00 pm but they have a strict no late check out policy, where we had to pay half a day's room rate for two hours. We paid it and stayed until 5:00 instead. Finally, the property does not accept credit card payments in the local currency. This is a bit suspicious because many places in Vientaine refuse anything but USD. My bill was close to Agoda's quote, but be careful in this area when using credit cards, most of

Good Location, big room.”

Location is OK. Easy to go to both city side and airport. But not much food around the hotel. Room is quite big. Toilet is separated from bath area. Wifi available, but not strong signal. BF is not worth to.

Very nice. ”

This hotel/apartment complex is very well taken care of and is a perfect place to relax and 'get away'. The staff are great as is the pool, lounge, fitness room, tennis court, etc... Just a really nice place. Would recommend it.

Big clean room with fast WiFi ”

There is a free washing and drying machine! But there's no entertainment in the residents lounge. In Somerset Hanoi, there's a PS.

Pleasant stay”

Clean rooms and exceptional service

Nice and clean condotel”

Nice, large clean rooms with LOTS of storage; friendly staff. Loved the kitchette --Very handy as no restaurants in-house or nearby. Only available meal was So-so buffet breakfast.

Good location, Fair Brakfast”

Location in the city, but nothing much around. Not far from the airport. Room is quite big. But I don't like Suite room. Have to pay expensive BF, but normal taste.

Great”

Good price & great hotel staff
