Hotels near Kaysone Phomvihane Memorial in Vientiane

Sadly a decline in service staff numbers with an increase in clientèle. It's lost its classy boutique feel as it has gone for the mass Chinese package tour overnight accommodation market. As a solo traveller staying a number of nights that means disrupted nights as late arrivals settle and early departures from 5am on. Breakfast hall crowded in peak periods. Breakfast is a bare minimal offering off massification of Asian food and token western food. I went to nearby cafes and restaurants to get an alternative decent nutritional breakfast... They demand a 1000 baht deposit cash on checkin rather demeaning. 2 lifts in a 22 storey complex is far from adequate the third lift reserved for staff only. Pool fabulous, although cooler time of the year not kept as clean as in summer months, the gym quite okay, not the most modern or premium gym equipment. The recent price rises of accommodation render it not good value anymore. Local staff very helpful and friendly despite being overworked. The location is central very good for city walks. Be aware that outside is the Vientiane center display area. I had 4 nights of a Calsburg beer pop band stage outside the hotel, with excessive bass reverberating through the entire building until near midnight and later on one night. I asked for and got a room change but the poor/virtually useles sound proofing did not help. The ”double glaze” does not keep out traffic noise even on the tenth floor nor deflect the heat from afternoon sun. ”Marble” type flooring ensure all corridor noise is carried uninterrupted to your room. People who appreciate their sleep be warned. The premises were kept clean a great effort from relentless dirtying from mass tour groups.

Check in date : 25th August 2022. Check out date : 26th August 2022. Location : The hotel is conveniently located right at the heart of Vientiane. It is within walking distance to the Hard Rock Cafe Vientiane and there are nice restaurants around. The junction at the end of the road has a convenience store. We booked LOCA car from the airport and it just costs 100,000 LAK. The area is not too busy but it is just near to the main the main road. Within walking distance, tourists can walk to Sisaket and Night Market. But we opt out for the motorcycle. Reception : The recep area is small but nicely decorated with wooden furniture. We arrived around 8am and the well spoken English receptionist welcomed us warmly. She also direct us to the luggage area and we got to keep our luggage before check in time. Before I depart from my home country, I texted the owner about motorcycle rental. The owner kindly replied me and arranged for us the motorcycle rental that only costs 50,000 LAK per day (which is super cheap). When we arrived, the motorcycle was ready. All in all, I felt welcome in the hotel. Room : My room is in the second floor. It has an amazing courtyard view. The room is spacious, the bathroom is big and clean. The AC works very well. The bed are large and comfy. An electric kettle was provided and 2 mineral waters are there for us. The towels are fresh and the wardrobe is big enough for us to store our rucksacks. Around the hotel : It is a very small but well run hotel. The hotel is clean and spotless. The courtyard is very amazing and the resting area gives a very tranquil vibe. There is a limited space motorcycle parking rental. The hotel also seems very quiet and looks like a very good resting/working place. There are no elevator around so disable people had to reconsider booking here or you can opt for ground floor room right in front of the courtyard. We checked out around 6am the next day so we didnt get to try the breakfast. Satisfaction : We are very satisfied with our stay in the hotel. We highly recommend this hotel for tourists.

Excellent service hotel Located near Lao airport Located in the heart of the city, convenient to travel, all staff are well-behaved, clean bedrooms, beautiful views, very soft beds, like having a good rest. Must book again Next time will recommend friends to book a room here because it's really good.

Clean accommodation, new, good overall service, WiFi cannot be used, but there are staff who come to help see and fix the air conditioner, very cool, the mattress is not very soft. If people like a tight mattress, they should like the bathroom very good, the water system is good, the breakfast is good, not a lot, but focus on the quality and taste of fresh salad vegetables, not crowded.

Location is far from tourist attractions and local restaurant. It is like Chinatown which alot of Chinese restaurant. Not recommended for tourist that looking for local experience. Front Staff is helpful, friendly and informative except the housekeeping (they talked loudly in the corridor while cleaning and shouting) so noisy plus people slamming the door, couple fighting and shouting, construction noise. I can't even sleep well whole stay. Plus things is the amenity is complete, drinking water, comb, tooth brush, hair dryer , shampoo and shower gel.

The best hotel! Lovely staff and amazing service. Everything is clean and tidy, the food is excellent, the beds are comfortable in an excellent location right in the center of the city. We will come back again

This hotel was very clean and has a great location. It’s right next to Parkson mall. They also have a shuttle bus to/from the airport for free. It would definitely come back to this hotel in the future and recommend it to anyone. Breakfast is okay, it has room for improvement.

We drove from vientiane all the way there and back so when we got there saw a vacant parking spot right in front of the entrance, tried to back in security guards come tap on my window and says you can't park there. He says thats for the vip’s but there was no sign or anything. Then we went inside got to the counter were we suppose to check in. The girls at the check we nice and welcoming but a bit slow, good thing we could check in at around 12:30. Unfortunately we booked 5 standard single king beds and ended up with 2 kings and 3 twins so paying 400,000 kip for each room. So check in was all done, walked past the slots got in the lift then up to the room. Bit of a smell in the lift, rooms looked quite old. Tv didnt work. Aircon was nice and cold. The bed was to springy you could fell the springs. Bed side table even had burnt marks on it. Pricing of the mini bar and the in room dining was pretty reasonable. The bathroom was small and somehow the person who designed the shower must be a complete *****, so basically the shower stuck on the wall but the pipes run across the top of the glass and out side of the glass, so you have to reach your arm out turn it on then get in, slide the doors close which then i felt like a can of sardines. So what could i say 400,000 kip was just a place to sleep put your head down for one night. Dansavanh golf course is bery nice and challenging, a very scencic and relaxing course. ****** not so much variety of games to play. You cant even place cash at the table and then buy in chips. I was told be the dealer at the table to walk and change it into chips at the cashiers booth. So it was quite annoying. Only had 1 blackjack table. They didnt even have pontoon, poker, craps, or ****** war just missing the variety of fun. So a basic weekend went by dont expect anything from the ****** and hotel no quite good. I would not go back again. Golf was fantastic. Next time just come real early in the morning for golf and go back to vientine in the afternoon.

I’m a big fan of the IBIS Accor Group brand. As a Peace Corps Volunteer, in Armenia, the IBIS Yerevan Center was my home away from home. I stayed there so often that the front desk gave me birthday and Christmas presents. So, you can understand why IBIS has a warm place in my heart. That feelings is the main reason I selected the IBIS Vientiane Nam Phu Hotel. I booked nine days. My first reservation was for two nights, immediately followed by a reservation for another seven. When I checked in, I asked the front desk if the hotel could book my train ticket from Vientiane to Vang Vieng. The answer was yes. The hotel just needed 48 hours notice. Two days before my trip, I returned to the front desk. A photo of my passport was taken. I didn’t need to pay, until the ticket was purchased. I wanted a first class ticket. The hotel had to wait until they actually purchased the ticket to know what to charge me. If first class was all booked, they would need to purchase the cheaper second class ticket. When my first class ticket arrived I was charged 400,000 Baht. That’s twice the cost of the ticket. I was told it was a service charge and that I would have to pay an additional 200,000 Baht for the taxi to the train station. The morning of my departure, the taxi driver picked me up and drove me to the station. I exited the car and paid him the agreed price. He shook his head no. He wanted more money. I gathered my two bags and sat on the curb, as the driver continued to ask for more money. I finally said, “You can take me back to the hotel!” He then called the hotel. After about ten minutes, the driver apologized, got in his car, and drove away. It not that I was taken for 200,000 to 300,000 additional Baht. I’m American. I have enough money to travel to a foreign country and book a hotel room for nine days. I’m a mark! I get that. So, I just paid. I’m disappointed in having to give the Accor Group such a negative rating and the need to warn fellow travelers about the staff at this particular IBIS hotel.
