We arrived in Vang VIeng unsure of where to go, and quickly came across Vieng Vilay. The room for 2 was a very reasonable price. The first room we were shown wasn't that good, but we went with the second one and spent 4 nights there. It was a comfortable bed and basic room with shower room, but you can't... More

This place is great if you are up early hours of the morning drinking.... but not for those who like a good night sleep! The room was basic but very clean, staff friendly and polite. Location is central for eating and tubing. Overall it would be very good value had on both nights we stayed we had not been kept... More

The lovely lady at reception was charming when looking at the place. English is good and very cheerful. We gladly paid money.... On reaching the room, it was AWFUL. Blood on bed sheets, cobwebs and a bathroom that resembled a construction site. Luckily we booked for 1 night with the option to extend. We slept in our sleeping bag liners... More

We didn't stay here but booked bus to Luang Prabang with them. BIG MISTAKE! We are so angry with this company for lyinng to us and ripping us off and have to say it has left a really bad impression of Vang Vieng. We had already endured the journey on windy roads from LP to VV in a cramped and... More

On first impressions this hostel seems great, the rooms are cheap, the locations good, it seems clean and the family run guesthouse appears very friendly...DO NOT BE DRAWN IN BY THIS! My experience here was by far the worst, scariest travel experience ever! One of the owners flipped out and attacked another traveller in the hostel, the guy had to... More

Do not stay in this hostel if you value your safety and posessions, the owners are extremely intimidating and violent, dont trust them or the safe they provide they will most certainly try to rip you off. I have done a lot of traveling in a lot of different countries and this is by far the most discraceful hostel i... More

Warning!!! The owner here is crazy and beat a English traveler for no reason. The owners and his mates are currupt (scammers) and violent. They seem to be under the influence of drugs/alcohol at night. At first they seem nice but will quickly turn on you. Worst hostel ever. Sent the kid to the hospital with broken arm and slashes...

We pretty much chose the first place we came across and it was the right decision. Very cheap from what i recall and the owners were very helpful and kind (Mama and her brother even helped when my friend was having a bad time with some opium tea!). They were a bit annoyed when he left without thanking them though!... More

Stumbled in here with no idea what was up or down in the town, and glad I did. The hotel is perfectly located in the middle of everything and a stones throw from tube rental. The staff were super friendly and helpful and fun! And they spoke great English too. The rooms weren't anything much but decent value for your... More

The cheapest lodgings I have ever had save those times Kipping on a mates couch. I paid 60,000 kip for a double room with fan, tv and bathroom. The fan didn't really alleviate the heat but chased the warm air around, the shower was cold, there was ants crawling all over the room and in the bed, the bathroom was... More
