Beautiul , bit rugged old house with charm and grace. Staff very friendly late night by our unannounced arrival with four children! Rooms spacy and wellcleaned, beds allright. Breakfast an experience by itself in openair roofed setting by beutiful garden with madame serving by the tables. In all a pleasant stay!!!

Stayed here in January for 3 nights. The location was perfect, just a short walk to main street or the river. Just 6 rooms available in a quiet street. Rooms were very clean and breakfast was served outside each room on the balcony or in the small courtyard. Close to all sites of interest and restaurants. Would certainly recommend to... More

The wooden house is alright at best. Certainly not worth the $40 per night, but luang prabang is an expensive place and we stayed at a worse place for the same price on our first night. Positives: the location really is excellent. Just a street away from the river on one side and the main street on the other. Easy... More

We stayed here for three nights in late June 2011 (1 week ago). We loved it. The room was large, clean, cool and quiet. The staff were attentive and helpful and gave us a good rate when we turned up on their doorstep after a 13hr bus ride. Breakfast wasn't included, but we were glad for it. There are so... More

After arriving 2 days early, they were willing to move our reservation forward with no problem. We had reserved a room upstairs but they didn't have any available as we had arrived early. Overall there was nothing wrong with the service. The building is pretty enough and this place only has 6 rooms. It was clean and had everything you'd... More

Lao Wooden House is the best guest house I've ever stayed in. The staff are warm, friendly, funny and very attentive. The rooms are clean, cool and extremely comfortable. My advice to ALL who travel to Luang Prabang is to STAY AT THE LAO WOODEN HOUSE!!! It is a 30 second walk to the main st and a 15 second... More

My sister and I stayed here for three nights and enjoyed this guest house very much. It is on a pretty side street that's convenient to just about everything that you would want to see yet far enough off the main strip to be quiet. Our room was comfortable and clean, with plenty of hot water, and the staff was... More

Walls are so thin you can hear your neighbor sneeze. Rooms are very very dark with regular power cuts. Service: awful ! we got kicked out of our room right before going on a tour. The taxi was waiting for us when the staff let us know that we have to check out now (9.00 am) because they have booked... More

We needed a bit more luxury after some squashy bus rides, so were looking for a nice place to stay for a few days in Luang Prabang. We happened upon the lao wooden house who were keen for us to stay - we actually negotiated a room double room for $20 on a walk-in. I have to say, it was... More

Villa Lao Wooden House is a little gem tucked away in one of the many back streets of Luang Prabang. First impressions from the street were good and on settling in I found it a perfect place to stay and explore LP from. Yes there is a dark wood theme inside and out, but it creates an atmosphere of old... More
