A simple but very clean & comfortable Inn. My room was in the front, so a bit noisy, but Luang Prabang isn't a loud place so it wasn't really an issue. They you direct over to their larger & more elegant hotel, the Burasari Heritage, for a lovely breakfast in the morning, served by a warm and friendly team. All in all a completely pleasant stay.

Nice place to stay

Chose the Cafe de Laos as is is very conveniently located in the old city. It is particularly convenient if you want to get up early to see the monks pass by - they walk right past the front door so it is very very easy to give alms to the monks. The room was comfortable and clean - all good except the shower which was underpowered and looked like it could do with soe attention. Apart from that a very nice place to stay. The coffees in the Cafe are also very good.

Small guest house in the centre of luang prabang

Perfect setting for our short stay. We used it as a base to go out and explore the town, the river and waterfalls. The staff were always helpful, the room clean and quiet but the whole town is woken by the early alms giving. We didn't find this a problem as it adds to the atmosphere. We were glad to have air conditioning after hot days out. The cafe was relaxed and served excellent coffee! We felt that we were part of the town, and could come and go easily.

Good location for Tak Bat, but noisy

The hotel is in a good location, especially for Tak Bat, but it is very noisy. If you can’t sleep through noises from outside, you probably won’t enjoy your stay. There are lots of noises from the temple, starting around 3:40 am, and you can hear everything through the walls. The hotel is nice, but not a great value. You can find something better for the price

Too small, old run down with no evidence of future repairs. Whoever gave this place a good review must be homeless! We are used to nice rooms like we had in Viet Nam for $45.00!

A pleasant stay.

Great location. Just a short walk from both the Night Market and Wat Xieng Thong, yet on a relatively quiet strip near several nice boutiques and shops. Beautiful and large room, with attractive woodwork. We arrived early and the room was quickly prepared to enable us to check in a bit early. The staff was also very accommodating with left luggage when we checked out, enabling us to enjoy the day in this very special town. I recommend Chang Inn.

Great Location

My partner and I really enjoyed our stay here. The location couldn't be better. The room was warm, inviting, and clean. The hotel staff was friendly and very helpful. English is not really spoken by the cafe staff, and so ordering and paying for things was sometimes a challenge. We received things we didn't order, and overpaid for other things because it was too difficult to explain. But really, this isn't even a complaint, as it isn't fair of me to expect anyone and everyone to speak English. Yes, as others have mentioned, the Monks' bell rings at 4 in the morning. This is not a problem if you just let it be part of the total experience. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Adorable Bed & Breakfast in center of it all

The Chang Inn is adorable! Whoever decorated this place is a genius, very simple but chic colonial and hipster-Laos aesetchic makes you fall in love with what could otherwise be a dull inn. It is basically a guest house, no formal reception or services. It's located right on the main street of Luang Prabang, the monks process down the street right in front of it and the night market is a short walk down the same street. I ended up renting a more upscale room for the second half of our trip and regret it. I should have stayed at the Chang Inn the whole time!

Enjoyed my stay at the heart of the historic centre of Luang Prabang. sole negative point is that they were doing some work on woody elements of ground floor ( polishing floor etc....) and all furniture had been removed . it would have been nice to see the ground floor as it appears on the photos!

いずれにしろ高い

周辺ホテルに比べ、価格が高い。朝食はつかないし、１階にあるカフェのコーヒーも有料。そこそこ清潔感はあるが、建物も古い。期待はずれ。それなら、安いところにすればよかった。周辺には民宿しかない。たくはつする道路に面しているので、立地はいい。メコン川は見えない。

親切なホテル

1Fや階段にはアンティークな時計や蓄音機があり、いい雰囲気でした。部屋はスタンダードだったので、それほど広くはありませんでした。スーツケースを広げられるスペースはあります。 アメニティーは石鹸、コットンと綿棒、シャワーキャップ、シャンプー、コンディショナー、ボディーソープ、水、タオル、ドライヤーがありました。 部屋は古いですが、掃除が行き届いていました。スタッフはとても親切でした。PM10：00頃到着しましたが、ホテルの前まですぐに出てきてくれました。遅い時間だったのに、翌日のトゥクトゥクとボートを予約してくれましたので、時間を有効に使えました。また、帰りには、トゥクトゥクの時間変更も対応してくれました。 ホテルの前に5時半過ぎに出ると、托鉢が見られました。朝食はありませんが、1Fのカフェにクロワッサンなど簡単なものはおいてありました。また、近くにたくさんレストランがあるので、困りませんでした。

親日的なオーナーと親切なスタッフ

チェックイン時間より少し前に到着しましたが、チェックインさせてもらえました。 スタッフから周辺の地図を渡され、ナイトマーケットが夕方6時からあるから行ったほうがいいよ、と教えてもらいました。 部屋はシンプルですが清潔。ポットなどはありません。 wi-fiは日によって速度が遅かったりしたのですが、困るというほどではありませんでした。 暑季の旅行だったため、日中すぐに宿に帰れてシャワーを浴びることのできる立地はとてもありがたかったです。 宿泊者共用のテラスもありました。 托鉢がホテルの前を通るのですが、観光客向けなので興ざめです。本物の（地元の方がやっている）托鉢を見たい場合は、裏通りに回ったほうがいいでしょう。 街中の至る所に旅行代理店があるのですが、この宿の近くにもクアンシーの滝まで50,000kip、パークウー洞窟まで80,000kipで行ってくれる代理店があり、利用しました。書類もきちんとしており信頼できそうでした。 また、朝食を付けていなかったのですが、向かいにスカンジナビアンベーカリーというパン屋が朝からやっているので利用しました。美味しかったです。 最終日にたまたまオーナーがいらっしゃり、日本には3回行った、東京のお茶がとてもおいしかったなどと英語と片言の日本語で話してくれました。 空港へのトゥクトゥク送迎をお願いしたいと伝えると、50,000kipで交渉してくれたようです。

ホテル変更？？

確かにチャンインホテルを予約したのですが・・・・・事前の連絡なしに系列のブラサリヘリテージに変更されていました。ヘリテージの方がゆったりしていて、料金はそのままなので、特に文句はないのですが、驚きました（現地でチャンインを覗くと改装中？？）。でも、従業員の対応はとても丁寧で、送迎や荷物預かりなど、きちんと対応していただきました。場所も中心地から近く観光もしやすいと思います。ただ、何故か初日だけホテルの無料Wi-Fiが全くつながりませんでしたが、ラオスという国柄を考えれば、ご愛敬でしょう。
