We stayed a couple of days in this ex residence of a laotian prince (the red prince) and you feel like being a guest in his private residence. The hotel is full of rich details, everywhere you look you see buddha statues, antique furniture, old pictures, great black/white fotographs, little fountains and so on. The garden is full of tropical plants and trees and is meticulously kept. The ambience could not be better. There are two pools on the premises, one lap pool and one regular pool. The rooms are just out of this world, many decorative items give you a fine asian atmosphere. The rooms have nice bathrooms with extra toilet and a walk in closet. Ours had a big and well furnished terrace. Housekeeping pays every attention to detail. Breakfast is served a la carte in the beautiful restaurant. Food is great and service excellent. All staff in the hotel is friendly, attentive and efficient.The hotel is located a bit off the main tourist areas like the main street with the nightmarket but that exactly underlines the exclusivity of this charming oasis. Highly recommended
