Letizia V TripAdvisor review

If you’re looking for a relaxing getaway, the Sofitel in Luang Prabang is the perfect choice. The place is absolutely stunning—a gorgeous colonial-style mansion with a peaceful garden where you might even spot some rabbits roaming around. The pool is amazing, just what you need to chill after a day of exploring the city. The rooms are super spacious and come with their own private garden, so you’ve got plenty of privacy when you want it. And let’s talk about the breakfast—it was the best we had in Laos and honestly better than most European hotels we’ve stayed at. There was a huge variety, and a lot of it was freshly made by the chef, which made it even more special. But what really makes this hotel stand out is the staff. Huge thanks to Te, Vard, Leng, Noudny, and Yai for being so friendly and helpful—they made our stay unforgettable. Next time I’m in Luang Prabang, I know exactly where I’m staying!

It’s wonderful to know you enjoyed our spacious rooms with private gardens, the refreshing pool, and the breakfast experience—your kind words about it being the best in Laos truly mean a lot to us. Your special mention of our team members— Leng, Noudny, Yai, and myself—warms our hearts.

This boutique hotel is a peaceful haven in the heart of a UNESCO World Heritage site, perfect for slow living and nature-filled relaxation. The spacious rooms, beautifully decorated with Lao silk and local items, offer private gardens with bathtubs for tranquil soaking. The restaurant serves delicious fusion dishes and authentic Lao cuisine, made with fresh produce from the hotel’s organic garden. Breakfast is equally delightful, featuring a wide variety of options. The grounds are serene, with shaded lawns, a large pool surrounded by greenery, and a charming spa in a heritage house. Special thanks to K. Pookie, K. Pingpong, and the team for their outstanding hospitality. Their warm service made our stay unforgettable. Having visited in 2023 and returned with my family in 2024, I’m thrilled to say the experience remains exceptional. If you’re heading to Luang Prabang, Sofitel Luang Prabang is a must-visit for its beauty, delicious food, and heartfelt service.

Sarah K TripAdvisor review

Highly recommend! This hotel far exceeded our expectations. The staff were incredibly welcoming, warm and gracious. The hotel feels like a wonderful refuge from it all, with luxurious suites, comfy beds and pillows. We even had a really cute garden in the back with an outdoor tub. The hotel is located very close to the night market and others loca sites. You are still in a third world country, so just expect to walk out to areas that don't have paved sidewalks. There is a lot of dirt paths, stray dogs and markets that are just a part of the experience. At no point did I feel unsafe. This community is very used too and welcoming to foreigners, but respect goes both ways and visitors should honor local customs and traditions. That being said there is an absolute charm to Luang Prabang that is thankfully preserved due to it being a UNESCO heritage site. It's truly wonderful to experience because there are few places still like this.

Dear B8620GKsarahk, Thank you for your thoughtful and glowing review. We’re thrilled that your stay at Sofitel Luang Prabang exceeded your expectations and that you found our team warm and welcoming. It's wonderful to hear that you enjoyed the luxurious suites, cozy garden with an outdoor tub, and the charm of Luang Prabang's heritage. We’re delighted that you appreciated the unique character of this UNESCO site and its cultural richness. Your respect for the local customs and traditions truly reflects the spirit of thoughtful travel. We look forward to welcoming you back for another memorable experience in our little haven. Warm regards, Te Duty Manager, Sofitel Luang Prabang
