The Ancient LuangPrabang is in a great location with the night market starting right outside the hotel. We booked a triple and were not disappointed. The room is very large and beautifully decorated. The monks walk past the front of the hotel for their morning alms. Breakfast was good and included in our room price. Their is fast WiFi available... more

Sounded good, looked good when we arrived. The welcome was strange and the price increased by 10USD on arrival due to it being Laos New Year celebrations. It may have been that this time of year was a bad time to visit, but our stay in the ancient did not help. Our biggest gripe was paying the most for our... more

Found this nice hotel while wandering the streets during the Songkran festival. Rooms were much bigger and cleaner than the high-end hotel we had previously booked. So I moved the family (with two kids under 10) into this one to keep them satisfied. Location is central and you may hear a little noise from the downstairs market area, but the... more

We really enjoyed our stay at the contemporary, chic, and centrally located Ancient Luang Prabang. We stayed in The Rat room, which was a corner room on the second floor with a narrow balcony, directly across from the main market on Luang Prabang's main street. (Great for people watching!) Our room was a generous size, and slightly larger than the... more

We had four nights at "The Ancient" (I like the idea that its previous name was "The New") in January and loved it. The rooms aren't numbered, they are named after animals possibly from the Chinese calendar. We were on the top floor in Pig. There were enough stairs to make a fat 50+ think twice about just ducking back... more

This is quite a nice hotel. It was a bit expensive by Laos standards, but great value in comparison to hotels back at home. If budget is a consideration, you could find good accommodation at half the price in many other guesthouses. I was travelling with a friend and we had a twin room on the top floor, so it... more

Ancient Luang Prabang located on the main street, the Ancient Luang Prabang Hotel on the 3rd floor open air cafe has a virtually panoramic view of the city. Guests can enjoy the central location, just walk out of the lobby and start browsing the day and evening textiles markets, shop at fruit stalls and walk to restaurants and all the... more

Fantastic huge rooms with enormous bathrooms, this recently refurbished hotel is great, very modern decor and extremely comfortable.

The Hotel offers free transfers from the plane and bus. The staff are excellent and... more
