Review of Mekong Hotel
2.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 19 Apr 2013
If you back packing or on a budget , this is a place for you , room only , bed was so hard , could of been sleeping on tiled floor , fridge dident work , shower was cold , bear feet on floor not recommended , flip flops provided , about £10 per night , no breakfast , don't forget your in one of the poorest countries in Asia , only stayed one night , only had thai baht , looking over the Mekong river at the thai side , I was thinking what are we doing here , don't get me wrong , it was a experience , but us falangs always expect better , not being street wise and relying on local tuk tuk driver , I was gagging for a cup of coffee in the morning , hotel dident have any facilities :-)
Date of stay: April 2013

Reviewed 23 February 2013

This place is hardly worth the title hotel.Stayed two nights.Nobody cleaned the room.First morning a family were banging on door to wake up receptionist to check out.

I was given the room with a river view and it is well located for that area.

Place needs a change of management.You could get better value for money at many of the more honestly named guest houses.

Reviewed 7 December 2012

The only room available was a big corner room with two single and a double bed @ 120'000 kip. The room itself was pretty shabby. Moldy walls, the floor a collection of ripped lino, the badroom in desperate need of a cleaning. The double bed was unusable. The 2mx2m mattress was just springs without any padding set on a single bed base. One of the single beds had 2 legs missing and sloping to the left. Unusable too. The second single bed was OK but not for two people. On the positive side, staff was friendly and the aircon did work. Sleeping on the floor was the best alternative for the night.

Room tip: For a good room, try to find an other hotel

Reviewed 4 July 2011

The Mekong is OK for the price, it's very old and very dirty, the location is the selling point right on the Mekong river, and very close to the Thai embassy, there is a restaurant on site, but is not owned by the hotel itself, Basicaly the hotel is a short time hotel, lots of ladyboys and other sex workers hanging around all day and night, but if you are only staying for the one night on a visa run then its OK. There are other fair to good hotels in the area but not on the river, The Mekong and Nong Soda are the only two.
