        Highly Recomended!”

        Everything was perfect! From the location to the rooms and obviously the prices that we are paying we feel that we get every cents worth! The hotel is just 5mins drive from most great restaurants and night market. The room is cleaned everyday and the breakfast is just amazing! I like the noodle soup and congee from the breakfast so much I ordered it for supper! Do come to this estate if you want to just chill in Luang prabang.

        Perfection!”

        I recently stayed at the Luang Sang Residence and thought it was spectacular. It is a colonial style hotel that was spotless as far cleanliness, had very friendly and efficient staff, and the food at the restaurant both for dinner and breakfast was outstanding. The hotel went above and beyond what I would expect so I was thrilled with my recent stay

        Loved everything about the hotel- the room, food, amenities and hospitality! We even used the tour packages offered by the hotel and it was really good. Staff was exceptionally nice and helped us make restaurant reservations, book tours etc. Will stay there again if i visit Luang Prabang!

        Very personalized approach that makes you feel welcome right away. Very well managed resort with loyal staff, who will go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Nice suites with all the necessary amenities. Excellent breakfast, served at the table. Much appreciated the Afternoon Tea! Nice pool and beautiful gardens. Effective mosquito control (did not see a single one, while in other areas outside the hotel there were many). Regular shuttle van to the center.

        COVID-19 Promotion”

        I found this hotel by accident during walking back to hotel from Sin-dad restaurant and I was impressed by a beutiful building of Luang Say Residence so this hotel became my wishlist. Because of COVID-19 situation that affected worldwide, I got a chance to stay here in discounting price and I'm so love this hotel. Everything is perfect, interior, staffs, service, food, etc. If you have a chance, do not hesitate. I strongly recommend this hotel.

        Beautiful hotel but too expensive ”

        The architecture is beautiful and they have managed to create the impression of a French colonial building down to the last detail, so we were astonished to learn that the hotel was built only 20 years ago. Restaurant was excellent and service very good. For a special occasion it is well worth it but I am not sure the price at 3-4 times that of most other hotels in LP, and verging on obscene in a country as poor as Laos, is really justified.

        Service, rooms, food

        i've stayed in most of the higher end hotels in luang prabang, and this is by far my favourite. the service is the best i've experienced anywhere in luang prabang - the staff are very friendly and welcoming, nothing is a bother and eduard is particularly exceptional. the food is great too - the eggs benedict for breakfast are divine, and i became addicted to the risottos at dinner! it's more expensive than other restaurants in town, but well worth it. the rooms are very spacious and beautifully finished, and the beds and pillows are super comfortable. the location is a short distance from town but still very convenient - it's an easy 10 minute bicycle ride, or you can take a tuk-tuk. i highly recommend luang say residence.

        Highlight of our trip”

        fantastic pool, impeccable service, beautiful villas and grounds

        staying at this hotel was the highlight of our trip. it is absolutely beautiful, and the staff are very helpful and nice and always there just when you need them. it has one of the nicest pools we have ever been in. the suites are in villas spaced around the grounds, and are very nicely done, with very high quality materials throughout. it feels very luxurious and unique and the staff make you feel very pampered, without being overbearing at all. the hotel is a bit out of the center, as it takes about 25-30 minutes to walk to the center, although you can take a tuk-tuk into town easily. we had planned to switch to a hotel in the center in order to be right in the middle of things, but we loved being at the luang say so much that we extended our stay there and stayed for 5 nights, and would have loved to stay longer! the hotels in town do not have the views of the mountains around, the huge pool, or the sense of calm that is so relaxing to come back to at the end of the day. the breakfast is delicious, with the best eggs benedict ever! the croissants are delicious too, and the fruit plate well presented and delicious. i celebrated my birthday at the luang say, and the staff went out of their way to make me feel very special. i would imagine that they are excellent with any special occasion and would make your day extremely memorable, as they did mine. we cannot recommend this hotel highly enough -- especially during the next few months, as they have a special lower price as an opening special. it is a great great deal! i have stayed at five star hotels around the world and this one is at the top of the list in my book, as it is so special and unlike any other hotel!

        Amazing experience”

        It's a rare combination of outstanding facilities, charme and excellent service. The hotel easily competes with the best in Asia

        staying at the luang say residence is an amazing experience. . facilities: the large and luxurious rooms are in small buildings, scattered across the lovely garden. each house features up to 4 rooms. wonderful bed. lots of details (water, fruit, tea/coffee, amenities, mood light, etc). beautiful lobby and restaurant. lovely bar with fireplace. a gym would be nice. overall: spotless. most guests are well dressed, adding to the charme of the place. food: very good. dinner is excellent. nice menu with a french and asian selection. great quality. nice presentation (i hope the foie gras will disappear from the menu though; as i object this pretty cruel food). breakfast is a la carte, like in other top hotels. here, the french management is most visible. wonderful croissants, brioches, etc. also eggs or oatmeal. great fresh juices. other items for an additional charge (which is unusual and not appropriate for such a great place). varity is probably a bit limited if you are used to things like cheese, ham etc., but ok for 2-3 days. presentation again is excellent. service: outstanding. all staff are wonderful. very friendly, personal, professional. we felt as wishes were anticipated. i spend a good half of my year in hotels - i have seen only few better places. main challenge will be to keep up this very high standard. excellent! overall, you will really like this place. we skipped a boat trip in order to enjoy the place for longer. very recommended!

        The best hotel I have ever stayed at”

        The breakfast was superb, the suite, pool and garden were fabulous, and the staff was incredibly friendly and attentive.

        The hotel staff made us feel at home from the moment we walked in until the day we left. Every detail of the colonial style hotel was excellent - from the descriptions at the restaurant tables about the French explorers who lived at the residence, to the way the room service prepared the room for the night so that we didn't need to think about mosquito nets, and so on. We walked and cycled a lot in Luang Prabang. The shuttle service to town and back was very convenient as well. The pool area was well kept and the pool service was very friendly. At one breakfast the waiter was so nice he even gave us a brief explanation of the people and tribes who live in Luang Prabang and Laos. The staff is really what makes the hotel into what it is.

        Absolutely wonderful guesthouse”

        The staff helpfulness, the luxurious guest room and the delicious food.

        I can't speak highly enough of the staff and the comfort of the Exploratory suite above the dining room. We stayed for 5 nights and it proved a wonderful retreat from the August humidity and busy streets. The pool is a delightful area and the dining room offers a fine variety. I recommend the fresh spring rolls, though. Staff are genuinely smiley and gracious, as is the wonderful Lao way. It's not in the best Luang Prabang area, but having already stayed in the old town, we welcomed the garden and pool space. Transfers into the old area are offered at any time and the tuk tuks from town are very inexpensive. It's also quite possible to walk from the guesthouse to the Museum and old town, as I did on several occasions. This would be my hotel of choice should I find myself back in lovely Luang Prabang.
