- Horst (10/5): Sehr schöne Unterkunft, perfekt. - Die Lage, die Unterkunft und die Aussicht. Nichts
- Anita (10/5): Very nice place to stay - Perfect location, very nice rooms and lovely view, and amazing location for the breakfast The satelitt tv were very bad quality
- Patricia (10/5): -
- frederic (8/5): -
- Anna (8/5): This is a wonderful place to enjoy the relaxed vibe of LP. Near the historic centre but away from the crowds. - Charming place. Wonderful view. Great staff. Noisy air conditioning
- Dave (9/5): Customer service was excellent, service with a smile, nothing was too much trouble. - View over the Mekong was beautiful, amazing location… 100% recommend this place. Initially in room 31 but had a cramped balcony, ask to move and no problem.
- Kimberly (10/5): - The location was amazing on the river. Staff members were very nice and accommodating. Just a 10 minute walk downtown. Highly recommend.
- Peter Stange (8/5): -
- Jeffrey (10/5): - Great location and great service 👏
- Catherine (9/5): Je recommande. Avons loué 2 nuits de plus. - Très bien situé à la pointe du historic district de Luang Prabang. Personnel toujours disponible et à l’écoute. Déjeuner à l’extérieur au croisement du Mékong et de la rivière Nam Kham. En prime: le lit a une télécommande qui soulève la tête ou le pied de lit ou les 2 !! Le chien du voisin qui jappe beaucoup dès 8:30 am
- hideaki (9/5): - 環境が良く、のんびりできるところ レストランの料理も美味しくいただけた なし
- FRANCIS (9/5): -
- susan (10/5): -
- Roman (7/5): - Schöner Stil und gute Lage Leider etwas laut wegen der Strasse
- Peter (5/5): No longer recommended - View over Mekong from the 2nd floor room Competent staff All rooms face the Mekong with a road in front of the Hotel. The road sees a never-ending flow of traffic from 5.30 to 20.00h. Mainly transport vehicles for Chinese tourists but also motorcyclists with fast and noisy bikes. Balconies at ground floor levels are unsanitary due to diesel fumes. Daytime noise is BAD. The breakfast place is on the opposite side of the road. It is strictly outdoors and in the January fog quite inadequate for guests as well for staff. Offer is limited and not adequate for the high prize of the Hotel
- Daiki (10/5): -
- Gabriele (8/5): -
- Ross (5/5): Very average and a disappointment - Comfortable bed and good shower with hot water Fumes from taxis with engines left on when parked Smelly toilet Dark and no sunshine even on balcony Cold restaurant for breakfast with no sunshine but it was January!
- Kerriann (10/5): -
- Vivek Anil (8/5): -
- Christian (7/5): Ok Hotel an super Lage, leider stimmt Preis/Leistung nicht wirklich. - Recht sauber, super Lage Zu teuer, Grösse Zimmer, wc ohne Lavabo, sehr ringhörig
- Tim (9/5): Comfortable hotel with a great location and views of the coinfluence of two rivers - Great location, comfortable rooms Nothing really, except that it’s becoming a pretty expensive place to stay and with so. many options to choose from I might try something else next time
- Deepanjali (10/5): Loved the breakfast spot - will definitely come back - The staff are very nice - especially Chivi at reception was very friendly and helpful It’s getting old and some of the wooden floorboards need replacing and the floors creak when you walk on it- the bathroom was too small but in some ways it was unique
- Marko (9/5): Yöpyisimme mieluusti uudestaan. 😊 - Todella ystävällinen henkilökunta, aamupala oli tosi hyvä ja upeassa miljöössä, hotellin sijainti loistava…lähellä keskustaa, mutta rauhallinen. Helposti voisin vähän vielä siistiä huoneita.😊
- sukhvinder singh (7/5): -
- Mark (10/5): Return to Luang Prabang - This hotel has a brilliant position by the river with a very attentive staff.
- Peter (10/5): - Great boutique hotel in the old town. Great location and the staff are always very friendly. My go to place in Luang Prabang
- Mikiya (10/5): - Mekong Riverview is an excellent option if you want to have a unique experience in Luang Prabang. It may not have the amenities of a five-star hotel, but I enjoyed it a lot more than staying at a cookie-cutter five-star hotel. The architectural distinctness, the sense of privacy, and most importantly, the helpfulness of staff made the stay so pleasant. In particular, they let me use my room after I checked out so I could stay in an air-conditioned room (not common in LP) until the taxi driver to the airport arrived. Definitely recommended.
- X4048JIdianam (10/5): Highly recommended place to stay - Perfect location.It was so nice when I could sleep and have breakfast while enjoying the beautiful view of the Mekong river. Ms. Lynn and the other staffs also provided great service, almost like a one-stop service where I could book a Mekong river cruise or even rent a motorbike. I highly recommend this hotel.
- Byron (7/5): Comfortable enough but a little below expectations. - Near the Mekong River and temples. We wanted a room with a view of the Mekong River and with that intention we picked a room with a wrap around porch. The only view we had was of other buildings in the hotel complex. Additionally it took us a day to figure out the hot tub faucet was reversed, the cold water was hot and the hot water cold.
- Penny (10/5): - Wonderful welcome to a beautiful hotel! Staff were so helpful and our rooms were excellent. The style of the hotel was traditional Laos and not modern but everything worked and looked great!
- Georgia (2/5): COCKROACHES, and rude staff. - The room was absolutely filthy; there were cobwebs, ants, dirt everywhere, and grossest of all- giant COCKROACHES in the bathroom! The staff were consistently very rude and unwelcoming. No one helped us with our bags. Terrible value for money; please stay elsewhere
- Nabeel (10/5): - I had a truly wonderful stay at this property and would like to extend my sincere gratitude to the entire team for their exceptional service. The staff were not only kind and welcoming, but also incredibly honest—a quality that stood out during my visit. On two separate occasions, I accidentally left cash in my clothing sent for laundry, and both times, the front desk promptly contacted me to return it. That level of integrity is rare and deeply appreciated. The only minor downside was a temporary issue with the hot water and the water pressure in the bathroom. Fortunately, the hot water issue was quickly resolved, and it didn’t significantly impact my overall experience. Highly recommended, and I would absolutely stay here again.
- Julie (3/5): Very overpriced save your money and stay in a much better hotel with helpful staff and much better service. - Then staff were unhelpful. We asked for milk for our coffee / tea and we’re told they could not arrange this even though the hotel has a restaurant !!! Their is no outdoor space to walk or sit to relax. The hotel is right beside many n road very noisy.
- Patrick (10/5): - The prosperity and location is amazing! I stayed on the second floor looking out upon the Mekong. The rooms are colonial- Lao perfect, equipted with all of the well throughtout immensities. THE STAFF - is kind, chill, thoughtful and overly greeting. This is the place to stay. Thank you for having me as your guest. Khun Patrick
- Belinda (10/5): - The most magnificent aspect of the Mekong River View Hotel, was the layout of the propery, enabling us to sit on the verandahs of the rooms viewing the Magnificent Mekong - brilliant!
- Brian (8/5): - Great location and the staff were excellent!
- Johann (9/5): Superb -
- Vicky (10/5): Exceptional -
- Patricia (10/5): - Tremendous hotel on the river! Excellent location.
- Sajal (9/5): Superb - Cute property, amazing staff and best breakfast place.
- Francisco (6/5): - Outstanding service but facilities need to improve. Bathroom did not work well, and in general needs an upgrade to be what you pay for. Breakfast is more appropriate for a youth hostel. Staff makes the difference with dedication and attitude.
- Frederwin (8/5): Charming - A hotel with exceptional views of the river- old-fashioned, charming. Free bikes to pootle around town. Best of all, breakfast on a terrace overlooking the river! As ever, true Laotian hospitality. And kindness. Thank you all! Melanie & Fred
- Shankar (10/5): - Quaint riverside property. The breakfast area overlooking the Mekong River was nice. Great and friendly staff.
- Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional -
- Joseph (10/5): - Nice hotel if you wanna be a little bit away from the center it’s a good bet
- Richard (9/5): Peaceful and relaxing place. The bikes and free transportation were just what was needed. - Breakfast good with many choices and good quality food. Good staff and really peaceful outdoor seating. There was a maintenance issue that was addressed immediately upon letting them know. They were kind, professional and helpful. They Refered a great restaurant. Manda; picture included.
- John a (10/5): Excellent Hotel in Luang Prabang - Located right on the river, this hotel has excellent views and easy access to shops and restaurants. The breakfast was phenomenal and the setting was very scenic. All of the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and very comfortable. Now, not all reviews can be perfect so if I had one complaint, it would be that the water pressure in the shower could be slightly better, but as it was, it was fine.
- Wanderer66738818775 (10/5): Unbeatable riverside views, tasteful yet modern rooms, amazing staff - Can't say enough positive things. While many visitors to Luang Prabang seek out riverside cafes or restaurants, you have this at your doorstep. The view is so lovely that I spent one afternoon just sitting on my room balcony enjoying the view. Room was extremely tasteful and comfortable -- done in the old colonial French style, but with modern amenities (an adjustable bed and super plush mattress) and -- better than blackout curtains -- full window/door shutters. Staff were incredibly kind and when I accidentally left something behind they took their own time to ship it back to me in Vientiane. Also free bikes and shuttles into the night market. Can't recommend enough!
- Jeremy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jonathan (10/5): Great stay - Wonderful location, cute hotel, friendly and responsive staff.
- Henry (10/5): - Amazing place with fantastic staff great restaurant! Loved it.
- Christopher (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jpe (9/5): Superb -
- Vasileios (10/5): Magic stay - The location, the bed that you can incline for feet or for the head The balcony of the room, I loved it, ask room 26 The vintage EV for complimentary rides in the town was a plus The construction they had in front of the restaurant was a disturbance, but it was away of Hotel’s control
- Christopher (8/5): Beautiful hotel ruined by over-tourism... - This is a lovely hotel with delightful old style rooms and very helpful friendly staff, with a breakfast cafe in an unbelievably wonderful location. The noise. The hotel is supposed to be in a tranquil location at the end of the peninsula. But sadly, Luang Prabang is over run with Chinese tourists. The dreadful, extremely loud karaoke boats on the Mekong mean that you are tortured by tone deaf warbling wannabe singers all afternoon and evening, and the plethora of minivans means that they keep parking outside the hotel with their engines running, waiting to pick up all these tourists. So it is impossible to relax on the balcony of your room and enjoy the peace and serenity. That has all gone now. It's very sad, and not the hotel's fault (although I think they could do something about the vans parking outside).
- Theodore (10/5): Exceptional -
- Travel579543 (10/5): Exceptional kindness and response of Manager - heroic passport rescue! - Overall, excellent experience at hotel and restaurant - beautiful riverfront views . Special commendation for the Front Office & Reservations Manager, Mr. Bounvone KEONIDA (Noi)--Nearing the airport after my stay, I realized I left my passport in my room safe: He brought it to me, himself, on his motorcycle! Such kindness and exceptional response I'll hold in my heart.
- Jeffrey (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anders (10/5): A wonderful and restful vacation. We strongly recommend the Hotel. - The Hotel is perfectly situated by the Mekong River, with a view towards the river from the room. The restaurant sits by the the river, so we enjoyed breakfast and drinks in the evening. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
- Peter (10/5): - Beautiful colonial hotel, I loved this hotel, sitting on the balcony with a coffee watching the Mekong river flow by. Loved it.
- Bruce (9/5): Superb - Loved the view from the balcony
- YVES (10/5): Wonderful stay - Wonderful stay at the Mekong Riverview Hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. Large rooms decorated with antiques. By the river it captures all the charm and the peacefulness of Luang Prabang. A must stay for any travellers in the region.
- Ron (1/5): Bad -
- Siham (9/5): Superb -
- Paweena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christophe (4/5): I saw this place 5 years ago and it looked like the place to stay. It is very disappointing. - The location is superb; the staff are very friendly. The property has probably seen better days; the woodwork needs a good overhaul. The room rate was overpriced for what you get; no special activities or even a welcome drink. You would expect a greater choice of food at breakfast.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Deborah (5/5): The hotel has potential but is dark, old and in tired. In its current state it represents very poor value for money - Great location, balcony had good river view, although there is a road in front of the hotel and there is some sort of construction work on the river bank so not particularly quiet or relaxing The viewpoint cafe, where breakfast is taken, has a nice view The property is old and in desperate need of updating. The bathroom looks like it hasn’t been touched since the 80s and all the fixtures and fittings are old/worn/showing their age
- ageprof (10/5): A retreat from the tourist crowd in Luang Prabang - We had a wonderful experience at the Mekong Riverview Hotel in Luang Prabang. This all-wood hotel retains the relaxed sensibility of another time. The room was very comfortable, with excellent a/c and other amenities. The hotel itself was very quiet. The only noise was the occasional evening beach party on the riverbank below the hotel. The hotel is situated near the end of the peninsula, where the Mekong and Nam Khan rivers come together. The views from the hotel and from the dining area are simply breathtaking. And, the hotel is very close to the Wat Xieng Thong Temple and the other nearby wats. We also want to give a shout out to the hotel staff, who went out of their way to assure that our needs were met. Among other things, they arranged our trip up the Mekong on a private boat, transportation to the Kuang Si waterfall complex, and transportation to the airport on our departure. In every case, we had excellent personal service, and the cost was less than we would have paid if we had booked it ourselves.
- Ian (10/5): Best location in Luang Prabang. Extremely friendly, knowledgeable and helpful staff. -
- swisstraveller002 (10/5): Lovely place in a perfect location - We spent 4 nights there at the end of February in 2 deluxe riverview rooms with balcony and absolutely loved it. I have been to Luang Prabang before (several times, but never at this hotel) and should I return to Luang Prabang, I will also return to Mekong Riverview Hotel ! The loation is perfect, at the end of the peninsula in the charming and UNESCO protected old town of Luang Prabang. Beautiful Wat Xienthong is right next door (in fact - from the entrance of our rooms, we could almost touched the ceremonial boat in the Wat). Everything is in walking distance, and if you dont feel like walking, you can use the free bicycles, or the old style electro vehicle can drop you off where you want. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are charming and decorated with a lot of love for detail, and with everything that you need. The riverview restaurant which belongs to the hotel, is fantastic. Breakfast is served there, and its the best spot in LP !!!! So beautiful and peaceful, alone for that I would return there. There is a small breakfast buffet including really good croissants and bread plus some "ready to order" items, like noodle soup, which I enjoyed every morning. What a way to start the day !
- Marlene (10/5): - This is by far one of the most beautiful hotels we've stayed! We absolutely love the arquitecture and the furniture. Our room faced the river. The room was spacious and so was the bathroom. The bed and pillows were comfortable. Every morning I looked forward to the breakfasts because they had lots of options, even for a vegetarian like me. In addition, the staff was professional, kind and very helpful.
- Connie (10/5): Perfect stay in a magical place - We spent 12 glorious days at this hotel and loved every minute. The room was large with a seating area, beautiful dark woods and had a terrace with furniture that overlooked the Mekong River. It was a perfect place for our morning coffee and evening wine. The beds are imported from Sweden and were extremely comfortable. Breakfast is served in the restaurant across the street with a magnificent view of the Mekong. There is a small buffet with fruit, yogurt and breads in addition to a “made to order” menu with eggs, pancakes and noodle and rice options. I utilized the electric cart transport service into town a few times because of some arthritis issues and it was perfect. This allowed me to enjoy visiting the Temples, shops and restaurants. The best part of this property is the staff…always positive, helpful and welcoming. I’d return in a heartbeat!
- AlanPerth (10/5): Authentic Lao experience - Lovely room in authentic Lao style with balcony overlooking Mekong River. Staff very friendly and helpful. Short walk to central area but lots to see near hotel. Only small criticism is the low water pressure in the shower but not a major issue. Highly recommended.
- kellyoV471RL (10/5): Nice Hotel in Terrific Location! - We stayed here for three nights in Dec and really enjoyed it! The staff was very helpful and friendly and our room was comfortable and spacious with a nice balcony overlooking the Mekong River. The location at the end of the peninsula was ideal. Very quiet and peaceful. And, while it’s a short walk to restaurants, wats and the night market area, it was nice to have the option of a quick ride in the hotel’s electric vehicle to be dropped off somewhere. The restaurant sits at the convergence of the Nam Khan and Mekong Rivers and has a beautiful view, especially in the morning when the mist is in the mountains across the Mekong. Definitely a place I would recommend.
- Alicea__ (9/5): Magical - Beautiful, old quarters-like hotel, shiny dark wooden floors and antique furniture. Very comfortable bed with a remote to choose angles. Balcony with a rattan table and armchairs facing the Mekong promises many magical moments. Everyone was very kind, thoughtful, and caring, doing everything they could to make the stay flawless - didnt even need to ask, they had already done it! Service at its best. There were mosquitoes in the room one night, the hotel could provide anti mosquito plug-in devices or a mosquito net over the bed. I cannot not like the free minibar given the heat, just suggesting that instead of 4 daily cans of coke and pepsi, it would be nice to have the zero sugar versions and maybe vary with a juice or two..
- Silvia (10/5): FANTASTIC - A wonderful hotel, frendly staff, amazing view! I highly recommend it to everyone!
- Christopher (8/5): Very good -
- Sf99 (10/5): Fabulous all the way, best location on the peninsula - Everything was brilliant, most of all the location, room decor and staff. We also enjoyed the riverview balcony and the breakfast spot Although the design and decor of the room is superb, the sheer curtains are not suitable, there should be black out blinds. Also the shower tiling is showing its age. And a sink instead of a urinal in the separate wc would make it 100% perfect 👍
- Adrina (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful location as well as kind wonderful staff
- SOFIA (10/5): - Their viewpoint cafe is gorgeous, amazing view & incredible food
- Larry (8/5): - Great location in a quiet area. Easily accessible to main streets and attractions . Especially enjoyed the free bikes offered. They also have a cute buggy they can take you to nearby places. Get home on your own. Rooms are spacious, clean and had a balcony with a view of the Mekong River. Breakfast place across the street overlooking the Mekong River. Service was excellent. Plenty of coffee offered. I especially enjoyed the mango and Pineapple shakes. Breakfast was mediocre and not much of a variety. Overall, I rate it 4.4 stars out of 5. I would highly recommend this place.
- genevieve (10/5): - The location of this hotel is perfect. The hotel restaurant is on the river, where you can breathe in the beautiful scenery. breakfast is very good. The hotel rooms are charming and clean, the personal is amazingly friendly and useful. The are bikes to borrow . There is also free transportation to bring you to town, although we never used it as everything is at a walking distance from the hotel. We would definitely go back!
- 557brucew (10/5): Quality in Lao - A First class Hotel. Outstanding staff, great location. Amazing views of the Mekong.. I used their free bikes and rides to the Night Market,,, and relaxed at morning breakfast overlooking the Mekong. Beautiful room and location.. the place to be. I would stay again in a second.
- Igor (10/5): Exceptional -
- Luigi (7/5): Good -
- steve (10/5): A peaceful stay - Perfect location , the manager and staff could not do enough for you , look forward to returning next year
- Larry (10/5): - The staff was highly responsive and helpful before and during our stay. It is one of the finest hotels in a tranquil part of the city, but it is easy to walk to the action of the night market and temples.
- Youyang (8/5): not a bad stay - location is central yet secluded, amazing views at breakfast rooms are slightly outdated, quite pricey for what you get
- Shelley (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast, location, staff and the room are all perfect. The whole hotel feels like the honeymoon suite. Our balcony overlooked the river and the beds were so comfortable.. Very quiet and peaceful location. We visited in early Feb and there were no bugs. We never even needed spray near the river. Highly recommend Take your laundry to a local place that is just down the road. In house is $5 USD per kg which is 3-4 times more than anywhere else.
- Raintree_Thailand (8/5): Relaxed refuge from frenetic life! - We enjoyed very much our stay at Mekong Riverview Hotel. The rooms are tastefully designed and decorated in traditional style (beautiful wooden floors and furniture), but with modern features. The rooms are kept very clean. Our room was a bit weird with the toilet separated from the bathroom sink, requiring a walk from one room to the other to wash hands after using the toilet. The location, overlooking the Mekong River, is great and our rooms had nice views of the river. The area is a bit noisy in the early evening, with people partying on river boats and in riverside restaurants, but not terrible and not running late into the night. The hotel offers some nice touches, like free use of bikes and transport to the citty-center and markets, and free mini-bar restocked every day. The breakfast included with our room was fresh, with varied choices to be ordered off their menu. Good, but not fantastic. The staff were all friendly and helpful. One negative was that the television in our room was not working and the staff said repairmen could only come on Monday (after we checked in on Saturday), but even on Monday, the TV was still not repaired and there was no offer of any discount or compensations for our room not having a working television. Also, when we arranged for transport to the train station, the staff charged us US$20; while I later reread the messages from the hotel and realized that they had earlier informed us the price would be US$18 (not a big deal, but that is not how business should be conducted). Overall, the minor negatives did not detract from our overall positive experience. Our stay was very pleasant, and we liked the hotel a lot, but there is room for it to be even better.
- Thaha (10/5): Awesome location and people - Our room had a great view of the mekong river and we could see the sunset from our balcony. The staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. They helped pick out good drivers for our trip to the Kuang Si waterfall and our sunset viewing cruise on the mekong river. The hotel room itself had a really nice rustic vibe without sacrificing any cleanliness and had a great adjustable bed 😁. 10/10 would come again.
- Suzanne (9/5): Superb -
- Martin (8/5): Very good - Views of the Nan Kham & Mekong I thought that though nice it was overpriced
- David (9/5): Fantastic views of the Mekong river - Great location Close to many F&B spots and bars Walking distance to the morning and night markets…with free bicycles, easy to get around. The complimentary breakfast was very good. There was a scam link within the booking.com massage function with the hotel. Fortunately I managed to contact the hotel to clarify.
- rogerbA9788MN (10/5): Luang Prabang treasure - The Mekong Riverside is a real jewel. Noi and everyone couldn't have been more accommodating. Rooms are very comfortable. The restaurant is such a beautiful location to e joy the views of the river, and the food is also first class
- Nicolas (8/5): Very good - Location. Breakfast deck on the river. Private balconies A little old, could be upgraded (bathrooms)
- Vicki (10/5): We booked a 3 night trip but ended up extending the trip 3 times and ended up staying 6 nights. - The hotel is perfectly placed just beside the mighty Mekong river and in close proximity to the town centre and vibrant night markets.
