Nam Bak Trip

I had a lovely stay here as a solo traveller for 3 nights. The room was comfortable and clean and the location was close to the riverfront and a walkable distance from many restaurants and shops. The staff were all really friendly, hospitable and helpful. I also got my laundry done at the hotel (it was $2 USD for 1 kg of load) and the staff were really efficient with that. The alms giving ceremony also happens just outside the hotel every morning around 6am which was a unique cultural tradition to witness.

We sure enjoyed our stay at the Victoria Xiengthong. The location was near most local attractions. The staff was very attentive to our well-being. Additionally, we were grateful to a surprise upgrade to a wonderful suite. We’d certainly use this facility for our next travel.

Excellent location in the heart of the city with large clean rooms and courteous, kind and helpful staff. Would definitely return!

The bad: Unless I'm reading this wrong, this place shows up as a 5 star on Expedia. 5 stars is NOT the class for this hotel. I got the deluxe balcony and couldn'tell the difference between any of the rooms, so if you're gonna stay, maybe have them show the difference between the rooms, so you know what you're getting, (mine didn't have the white soffit shown in the pic, so maybe it wasn't the right room?). We got Lao massage, and would certainly not do that there again. There was no strength put into it, it was more of a rub than a massage. It's a tiny, tiny room. The balcony is the walkway up to your room (it does have sitting furniture on it, which is nice). The good: The bed is super comfortable.

the hotel is immaculate.
