What a wonderful spot to rest your head!

I wish i had of been able to spend more time in such a lovely bedroom space. Was not in the main building but not a problem as i had everything I needed. Stylishly kitted out and such a divinely comfy bed! Lush shower space with cute colour co-ord bags for all the courtesy disposables. Plants in your room, plants on the balcony! Went to Tamarind Lao cuisine for dinner...which was amazing! Lovely 1 night stay...my only negative is that there was a lot of voices/tours etc leaving outside at 6/6.30am...bring ear plugs!

Loom the manager is awesome. He’ll take great care of your every whim. Only warning is that hundreds of people show up at 5:30 am for the monk procession so if you’re a light sleeper you will be woken. They all move on by 7am . At 8 am the construction workers start on the new river wall. I am sure all the hotels along the river have the same noise. Other than the commotion everything excellent.

朝食以外は良かった。

立地は良かった。周囲は多少騒がしいけれど街の中心部ということもあり想定内だったので問題なし。 朝食の案内が不親切。メニューをもっと見せて欲しかった。まだ次が来ると30分以上待ったらもう終わりだと言われて時間を無駄にした。

Nice boutique hotel

A beautiful hotel in a renovated older building. If you want to enjoy historic architecture this is the hotel for you. If you want modern then no. Delicious breakfast, friendly staff, and great location.
