4 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 May 2013

I stayed for 2 weeks and the owner (Duk) was extremely helpful and happy to help in any situation. It's located down a side street, very close to Utopia, which is a great place to chill out, eat and drink. It's clean, but for 100,000 Kip a night (£8/$13) for a room with AC you can't expect the space and... More

This has to be one of our favorite places that we stayed during more than nine months of traveling. The hosts were super friendly and would bend over backwards to help. The location is ideal, close to everything, but tucked away down a quiet street. The rooms were spacious, clean, and had A/C (a must in these hot months). And... More

We stayed at Vilay Vang Guest House for 4 nights in December, 2012. The guesthouse is in a quiet area not too far from the main part of Luang Prabang. To walk to the main part of town, you need to go around a hill, but either way around is quick and scenic. The advantage to VV's location is it... More

Duk the proprietor is kind and welcoming.He will go out of his way to meet your needs. Vilayvanh is definitely inexpensive- we paid US$15 a night during high season. Rooms on the first floor, which begin with the #2, are small, adequate for two people. Here's what you can expect: 2 twin beds, a desk and stool next to a... More

This was a real find! Cheap rooms with own bathroom, tv & aircon ($12) very close to Hive, laulau & Utopia and only a 10 minute walk to the night market. The staff are just lovely & so warm & friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend or return to Vilayvang guest house.

We felt lucky when they had a vacancy at VV Guesthouse. We crossed the threshold and the Manager, Duk, greeted us warmly by saying ‘..this is now your home.’ He was very sincere and the moment we entered, the whole staff watched out for us and made sure we were happy; Duk, his assistant, and even the cleaning lady.

Stayed here for a week in Mar 2012 for 120,000 Kip a night. The guesthouse is down a very quiet lane and at night it is silent until the 11.00pm crowd from Utopia straggle home full of happy chatter. The two story building has fantastic wide polished floorboards. The staff is friendly and unobtrusive. Free bananas and coffee always available.... More
