Silver Naga Hotel

The location is fantastic but you do need to book a river view room to take advantage of the scenery, The rooms with balcony overlook the pool and river and karsts. The room itself could do with updating and the door was malfunctioning- took brute strength to open when we were leaving! The breakfast was great- a variety of fruits, cereals, made-to-order eggs, bread. Can’t comment on the curries! The staff organised transfers and excursions all done well. The yoga classes were really good and well worth the $10.

The terrace by the pool needs some attention- more and comfortable furniture. No loungers!? Hammocks are not comfy. Hardly any shade. The chairs to the table by the bar did not fit under it - very uncomfortable.

Comfortable bed, good breakfast and great location. Pong was extremely helpful in arranging tuk tuk transfer from the train station and advising and arranging things for our onward journey to Vientiane.

The Silver Naga could do with refurbishment but we knew this in advance as it was our 2nd stay.

The family room is giant with a fantastic view of the mountains

Shower is old and not in great shape

Superb location. The twinkling corridor of hotel steps are literally an extension of the night market (rows of stalls selling textiles, T shirts, tours, tasty food and drinks). Room has a beautiful view of river and karsts. You can see hot air balloons sailing off every morning. Vegetarian buffet breakfast varies every day and the team does really well: curries, stir fries, freshly cooked omelettes, bread, cakes, fruit etc. There’s a warm welcome from the catering staff. Yoga class is fantastic and runs at 7.30am/ 5pm. A very professional class on a pay on the day basis- knowledgeable and genuine teacher.

As with other reviews, the rooms are tired, so if it’s honeymoon perfection you want, this maybe isn’t for you. But if you want a great base and don’t mind the buzz of long tail boats cutting up the river - and are happy to get out and about everyday, this is a perfect spot. Pool area is also nice with a view of the mountains.

The manager Steve is the nicest person in Luang Prabang and is very helpful.

Excellent staff
