Guest Reviews

• Daniele (8/5): -
• Oulaivanh (5/5): Will consider this again due to the location proximity - Location in town Not too cleaned
• Thomas (9/5): -
• thierry (8/5): - La piscine Un peu bruyant
• Nathalie (9/5): - Tout, super emplacement et bel hôtel. Rien!
• Amy (7/5): - Lovely property with big rooms. The patio / balcony overlooking the gorgeous pool was a lovely touch. Staff were friendly and helpful and always had a smile on their face. The only negative was the breakfast included in my opinion - not very appealing to everyone but does the job for a snack to start your day!
• Eric (10/5): Très bien - Chambre très agréable qui ouvre sur la piscine, personnel adorable Rien
• vu (10/5): -
• guillaume (7/5): Bien mais on peut trouver mieux pour le prix. - Les chambres sont confortables et au calme dans le patio intérieur qui donne sur la piscine. Le petit déjeuner n est pas à la hauteur et je déconseille de le prendre.
• Doris (10/5): -
• SHINICHIRO (8/5): かなり満足 -
• Paola Mader (9/5): -
• Cynthia (9/5): Très bel hôtel à 10 minutes à pied du centre de Pakse - Tout était très bien. Verre de bienvenue à l’accueil. La piscine très belle et des belles chambres aussi. Rien
• Michaela (10/5): -
• Roy (9/5): Relaxing - Clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful.We had a ground floor room that opened straight onto the pool. No hot water in the washbasin.
• Michel LARGE (9/5): Hôtel confortable mais bruyant. - Hôtel confortable avec un personnel pro et attentionné. Bruyant car l hôtel est sur l avenue principale de Pakse. Petit déjeuner à la carte donc limité.
• Colinet (9/5): -
• Gerd Reinhard (9/5): Angenehm, jederzeit wieder - Lage zentral, nah am Flughafen, nah am zentralen Markt, eine Vielzahl Restaurants in der Nöhe. Großes Zimmer (extra gebucht), bequeme Betten, sauber, schöner Pool im Innenhof. Unser Zimmer ging zur Hauptstraße. Eigentlich kein großes Problem, da nachts wenig Verkehr herrschte. In der ersten Nacht wurden wir allerdings von extrem lauter Musik aus der Nähe des Hotels wach gehalten.
• Hadas (9/5): - מיקום, ניקיון א. בוקר
• Janine (8/5): Super - Super Dusche & Balkon. Wir waren 2 mal dort
• John Malcolm Piccinno (10/5): Un oasi di pace in città - Camere fantastiche e piscina super meravigliosa. Situazione quasi magica in questo giardino zen con un albero fiorito che fa da cornice ad un contesto già di suo molto elegante. Colazione alla carta con diverse opzioni ma per il mio gusto personale non sufficienti. Nel senso che abituato alle colazioni a buffet quella alla carta mi sembrano un po' troppo essenziali.
• Michel (10/5): Un bel hôtel de charme - Hôtel de charme, personnel attentionné et excellent petit déjeuner. Rien un peu de bruit de la route le matin
• Pirjo (9/5): - Near airport, nice rooms breakfest, you got your meal very slowly
• Thierry (7/5): Pakse est très bruyant et pollué et l’emplacement de l’hôtel ne vous préserve pas - Le décor est très bien Le bruit de la rue de jour comme de nuit L’eau chaude dans la douche !
• Franck (8/5): -
• Markus (9/5): Super Frühstück ! - Perfekt für 2-3 Nächte! Das Frühstück war sehr gut, das Zimmer sauber und die Klimaanlage hat auch super funktioniert. Der Pool hat ab 02:00 PM leider keine Sonne mehr. Zum Sonnenbaden nicht geeignet. Für 2-3 Runden schwimmen aber allemal gut. Da Englisch der Angestellten ist zum Teil sehr schlecht, mit ein wenig Geduld kommt man aber immer auf das Ergebnis.
• david (6/5): Un peu déçus , trop cher pour la prestation - Personnel aux petits soin Chambre spacieuse et bien décorée - petit déjeuner loin des standards de ce genre d établissements - emplacement éloigné du centre - chambres sombres ainsi que la piscine très à l ombre
• Martin (5/5): Leider verschlechtert - POOL Und das Frühstück zimmer gefällt aber ....... Das wir um ein anderes Zimmer gebeten haben da das Zimmer was wir bekommen haben nach Rauch stank. Und wir im Bad Asche auf der 🚽 und Boden gefunden haben also das Reinigungs Personal kannst vergessen. Und das sagten sie uns bei der Rezeption das wir anders bekommen wenn wir vom einkaufen zurück kommen. Und was war, das selbe verschmutze Zimmer. Also so geht's nicht. Also nächstes Mal suche ich mir schon anders hotel LG Martin
• Janine (8/5): Tollws Hotel zum Entstannen - Toller Pool, wenn auch sehr kalt:) sehr freundliches Personal und sehf schöne und saubere Zimmer. Zudem war der Balkon echt top Das Frühstück wird „per Teller/Dish“ bestellt und ist bei Continental Optionen recht bescheiden.
• Adeline (9/5): Sans hésiter il faut y aller - Cadre très beau, chambre grande et spacieuse. L’hôtel avait une belle décoration et le personnel était bienveillant, ils nous ont même imprimé nos E-Visa pour le Cambodge. Très bon petit déjeuner également.
• claire (8/5): -
• Michel (9/5): - Un très beau cadre avec un personnel très souriant. Au petit déjeuner un deuxième item serait le bienvenu (yaourt, fruit)
• Hadas (10/5): -
• Sabine (8/5): -
• Karolina (10/5): Piękne kameralne miejsce, wspaniały czas i odpoczynek - Piekny, zadbany i bardzo dobrze zarządzany hotel, duże, wygodne pokoje, pokoje na parterze mają widok i bezpośrednie wejście na basen, który również jest piękny i położony wśród zadbanych roślin. W hotelu jest dodatkowo restauracja serwująca bardzo przyzwoite jedzenie a nie tylko śniadania, w Laosie to rzadkość, hotel położony w doskonałej lokalizacji. Antena hotel to zdecydowanie najlepszy hotel w jakim dotychczas miałam okazję gościć w Laosie. Nie ma takiej rzeczy
• Michal (10/5): - Podczas naszego pobytu w Pakse nocowaliśmy w hotelu Atena przez dwie noce i z pełnym przekonaniem możemy stwierdzić, że jest to najlepszy hotel, jaki udało nam się znaleźć w Pakse, a szczerze mówiąc – najlepszy hotel, w jakim do tej pory spaliśmy w Laosie. Hotel ma butikowy, kameralny charakter, co od razu przekłada się na komfort pobytu i atmosferę. Pokoje są bardzo estetycznie i solidnie urządzone, z dbałością o detale. Mieszkaliśmy w pokoju na parterze, bezpośrednio przy basenie – to niezwykle wygodne rozwiązanie, bo wystarczy dosłownie kilka kroków, aby znaleźć się przy wodzie. Basen jest kameralny i bardzo zadbany, a wokół niego znajdują się wyjątkowo wygodne leżaki z miękkimi, grubymi poduchami, które zapewniają komfort wypoczynku. Nad basenem rośnie jedno duże drzewo, które nadaje miejscu uroku – i co istotne, obsługa dba o każdy szczegół: pracownik regularnie (co kilkanaście–kilkadziesiąt minut) zbiera opadłe liście, zarówno z wody, jak i z otoczenia basenu. To drobny detal, który świetnie pokazuje poziom troski o gości. Na szczególne wyróżnienie zasługuje obsługa hotelu, która zdecydowanie wykracza poza standardy, do jakich przyzwyczaił nas Laos. Recepcja, kelnerzy oraz housekeeping są dobrze przeszkoleni, uważni i świadomi oczekiwań bardziej wymagającego klienta. W restauracji brudne naczynia są zabierane od razu po skończonym daniu, co – niestety – nadal nie jest oczywistością w wielu miejscach w Laosie. Bardzo sprawnie działa również pralnia hotelowa – ubrania oddane do prania wróciły do pokoju już po kilku godzinach, czyste, starannie poskładane. Jeśli chodzi o jedzenie, to śniadania stoją na bardzo dobrym poziomie, zarówno pod względem smaku, jak i estetyki podania. Próbowaliśmy również m.in. zupy grzybowej, która była naprawdę ok. Widać, że kuchnia i obsługa są zaangażowane i dbają o jakość oraz prezentację potraw.
• Pierre (8/5): - Il faut que les employés contrôlent plus fréquemment les canalisations car la douche et le lavabo étaient bouchés ! Ce sont ces petits détails qui peuvent augmenter ou diminuer le nombre d'étoiles
• Bruno (9/5): -
• Olivia (9/5): - Sehr sauberes und schönes Hotel. Das Zimmer war mit allem ausgestattet was nötig ist. Nicht weit weg sind Cafes, Restaurants und Shops. Das Personal ist sehr freundlich, aufmerksam und hilfsbereit.
• Pierre (10/5): - Very nice hotel Situated on the main road, a bit noisy
• aurelie (10/5): -
• Agnieszka (9/5): -
• aurelie (10/5): - La bienveillance et la gentillesse de l'ensemble du personnel +++ La piscine Les chambres spacieuses L'excellent petit dejeuner ! Rien tout etait parfait !
• Demoliere (7/5): - La gentillesse du personnel Le confort de la literie et de la chambre en général Un des murs de la chambre n'était pas très propre, traces marron L'odeur désagréable dans la salle de bain
• Veronique (9/5): Belle parenthèse - Les chambres très belles et spacieuses la piscine et les extérieurs sont parfait. Le petit déjeuner est très moyen pour un hôtel de ce niveau.
• Valérie (9/5): - Très propre et serviable. Communication difficile du au mauvais niveau d’anglais.
• Abdulaziz (10/5): -
• Martin (10/5): - Alles außer der Laute Ventilator im Bad und die Ameisen
• Annemiek (9/5): Good stay at Athena. - Good beds, quiet location, nice breakfast. We also had lunch here one of the days, which was very nice. The room had a nice balcony overlooking the swimming pool. The sliding doors to the balcony could use some attention, it was hard to close them properly. With the exception of the lady who worked in the restaurant, the staff’s English was minimal which caused some confusion when we booked a taxi and we didn’t end up where we wanted to go. Should have used Google translate 🙂.
• Chris (10/5): A fantastic stay - Really loved staying here The second floor room at the back wasn’t as quiet as our first stay when we on the side by the pool , but a small problem
• Martin (10/5): Athena wir kommen wieder - Das Essen das Frühstück 😁 und es ist gut gelegen Zuviele Ameisen im Zimmer die sollten schon besser gereinigt werden haben eine Ameise Straße an der Wand und sind uns in alle Süßigkeiten rein konnte alles wegschmeißen
• Chris (10/5): An oasis of calm in pakse - Fantastic room and lovely pool. Staff were wonderful

• Jason (9/5): A Welcoming, Luxurious Stay in Pakse - The overall description of this hotel I can give is impressive. I found the hotel on this website whilst travelling through Laos on holiday and whilst the photographs gave a very good impression, arrival certainly sealed it. The Athena is "up the road" from the Souphanuvong Bridge on main street 13. It's a 10-15 minute walk up the street or a Tuk-Tuk/taxi ride as it's 400-500m up the street from the Bridge and the in town bus station. On arrival I checked in with extremely courteous and helpful staff. A Concierge delivered my luggage to my room, and the hotel offered me a complimentary drink in the lounge area, as I was little early for check-in, while I waited. The room I booked, a deluxe double, was extremely comfortable and impressive. I had a ground floor room, with dark wooden floors, matching furniture, with large patio windows to the adjoining hotel pool outside. Each room adjoining the pool had furniture (longer, table). The room was very spacious, and the bed huge. An ensuite bathroom with a. large walk-in shower, and large sink basin, set the overall comfort level of the room to a high. The room contained a fridge/mini bar. Breakfast was included in my booking, and the hotel provided a comprehensive breakfast menu. I also chose to eat at the hotel restaurant one evening, with the food being a very high quality with many options. I can say I found the Athena Hotel an excellent choice of accommodation on my stay in Pakse. I have nothing but a positive experience of the establishment and its offer. After a 19 hour bus journey to Pakse on a "VIP" Laos bus, the Athena Hotel was a solid choice. It's rated as a 3 star on Booking but that may be doing it a disservice: a 4 star is very well deserved. I would certainly rate this hotel as an accommodation venue that is top class, and value for money. Highly recommended. Nothing to say here at all!
• Menashe (9/5): - מלון טוב, קיבלנו חדר מרווח עם גישה לבריכה, הצוות נחמד וסייע בהזמנת טיולים. המיקום במרחק הליכה לשוק הלילה. הרבה מעבר לזה אין מה לעשות בפקסה. ארוחת הבוקר דלה, מוגשת על פי הזמנה.
• Ellena (9/5): Clean, friendly and relaxing - Very friendly and helpful staff. Very relaxing place.
• CBOY24 (10/5): - Great staffs, room looks better than in pictures. Usually picture show room better than it look, not this hotel. I really like it. It exceeded my expectations. The basin in the bathroom, not tall people friendly. Have to bend down more than usual haha Other than that, no problems.
• Chiara (10/5): Due notti in un posto accogliente - La camera, grande e accogliente La piscina perfetta per un momento di relax Lo staff gentilissimo e disponibile
• Stephen (10/5): -
• yiran (10/5): -
• Krishna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Andyyy2002 (8/5): it was ok over all - it was very clean and fresh they wanted to charge for a bottle of water and its not like its a cheap place to stop did not like the breakfast sausage was like rubber cornflakes in a cup rather than in a bowl I paid for 2 breakfasts but my partner was late arriving so I only had 1 breakfast then they asked me to pay for the water because it was after 5pm they offered juice when I arrived but I did not want so over all I thought it was a bit of a cheek to ask to pay for the water in the end they never charged me for it the door to my balcony would not open very easy had to get the man to it which took him a while a man sleeping on the floor in the lobby at night under an umbrella i had to wake him up for my key
• Gabriel (9/5): Amazing, friendly, would always recommend, great service and great value! - There were mosquitoes in the room, only if we left the door open too long, so kind of on us. I wish they had some repellent, but no worries, we still fought them off!
• John (8/5): Ok, but not the best price/value. - Ok place. Mostly as you would expect. Hotel safe/lock box was left locked and they couldn't find a key to unlock it, so don't count on using it. Breakfast was by order only, no buffet. Definitely below expectations. No options for vegetarians/vegans.
• Clement (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice staff, well-located hotel. The swimming-pool is great and the room amazing.
• Linda (9/5): Clean and comfortable - Clean and comfortable. Staff always smiling and helpful. Could have had more choice for non-meat eaters at breakfast.
• Karine (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jane (10/5): Exceptional - Pakse was not super interesting but the hotel - wow. The best staff, the room and hotel was so clean and comfortable. And the balcony and pool was brilliant. Best pillow I have for the last three months of travel.
• Violetta (8/5): Very good - The hotel is nice and clean. Make sure you have extra 15-20 minutes if you are on a schedule, you'll have to wait for the breakfast to be cooked. Your bedsheets may have holes.
• Melissa (7/5): Good - Beautiful property, just like the pictures, with a lovely pool. Staff were amazing, so helpful. Building next door was really noisy, played music with loud karaoke
• Shawn (10/5): Exceptional -
• Michiel (8/5): Superb oasis in Pakse - Stylish yet sober architecture. Friendly staff. Quality breakfast. Nothing
• Tanim (10/5): Exceptional - Win is very expensive if compared with others. Balcony doesn’t have privacy.
• Kelly (4/5): Disappointing - nice location with river view hotel is under renovation- unsightly- lots of noise and dust. Should have closed until finished
• Jude (10/5): a wonderful stay in a superbly managed hotel with fantastic smiling staff and a - wonderful professional staff great location pool area was lovely rooms were charming and spacious , common areas stylish and well maintained
• Sabine (9/5): Superb -
• Maarten (6/5): Ok, wouldn’t mind staying there again but would probably look elsewhere - The staff was very friendly, location pretty good. the were holes in pretty much everything. The curtains, towels and bed linnen all had holes in them. The light outside the room was kept on till 4:00. Very annoying, every time you opened your eyes you would think it was morning.
• Skr23 (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sandra (7/5): Good -
• Stef (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sharon (10/5): Enjoyable four day stay at the Athena Hotel in Pakse - The room was spacious and the bed very comfortable. The staff very friendly. I really enjoyed being able to come back each day and have a swim. I ate in the hotel most nights the meals on offer were fine as was the breakfast. It was easy enough to organise airport pick up and tours through the hotel.
• Somchit (10/5): Comfort that’s worth more than you pay for it - The place is spotless, services are impeccable, a bit more expensive than others in the neighbourhood, but paying that extra is well worth it. I booked it though Hotel.Com, by the time I checked in at 11am, they already had everything prepared for me. The stay there is worth every penny.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Schönes Hotel - Das Hotel ist relativ klein aber schön gestaltet. Das Zimmer mit Blick auf den Pool war sehr sauber und hat mir gut gefallen. Das Frühstück war in Ordnung und das Team freundlich, obwohl sie wenig Englischkenntnisse hatten. Das Hotel war meiner Meinung nach ein wenig überteuert da es kein Restaurant beinhaltet und das Frühstück ausgiebiger gestaltet werden könnte. Alles in allem war ich zufrieden.
• francois (8/5): Bien placé entre le marché et locations de motos - Très grande chambre confortable et bien équipée Le personnel ne parle pas bien l'anglais et n'est pas très efficace
• JoAnne (10/5): Great hotel in a very good location in Pakxe. - Lovely hotel. Friendly professional staff. Really nice pool area with lots of greenery and very well cared for. Wonderful room and very good ensuite with large shower with doors. Amazing balcony with very good seating and greenery plants between rooms for privacy. Dining room really nice with excellent service and delicious breakfast. No complaints.
• Michael (10/5): A little Gem - Perfect in every way. Comfy bed, very clean, lovely staff, adequate breakfast which could also be served in your room at no extra cost. Lovely little pool and rocking sunbeds. Recommend the foot massage approx. £5 for one hour. Would definitely stay there again.
