Cheap Hotels in Vientiane

"Holiday Inn consistently maintains its standards. Whenever I visit a new, unfamiliar place, Holiday Inn is always my first choice, whether it's at the foot of Mount Emei, in Bangkok, or Beijing, among other locations. Of course, I don't book directly through the hotel's website, so they probably don't have my personal data. But I've stayed with you in over ten different places, multiple times. Let's talk about my recent experience in Vientiane. There was a tall male front desk staff member, with neatly parted 60/40 hair. I didn't catch his name, but his way of handling issues was a textbook example of SOP (Standard Operating Procedure) at its finest. I asked him via Xiaohongshu if I could book bus tickets from Vang Vieng to Luang Prabang at the hotel. He checked an app on his phone and made a call for me. It turned out he booked them on my behalf. He said there was a trip tomorrow at 11:30 AM and that the other party would deliver the tickets. I came back around 12:00 PM after eating, and the tickets hadn't arrived yet. He said he would follow up immediately. Shortly after his call, the tickets were delivered. He even mentioned that the other party would pick us up from the hotel lobby to take us to the station tomorrow. On the day of the bus trip, the bus was late. He again said he would follow up immediately. Throughout these two days of handling things, I paid close attention to his expression; he showed no impatience at all. He was very friendly, and even helped us take a photo with the bus once it arrived. As someone who used to work in hotels, I truly have no complaints. I hope you advance well in your career at the hotel."

"The hotel is generally good. I've been staying here for a while, first for eight days, and then I extended my stay for another seven. The breakfast, which I had every day, wasn't monotonous; the dishes rotated. I swam and worked out daily, and if it wasn't raining, I'd explore the surroundings. Once I'd had enough, I'd head off to Vang Vieng and Luang Prabang to see more."

"I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The staff were professional, attentive, and always willing to help. The location was also very convenient. Overall, a great experience and definitely a hotel I would recommend.”"

"I stayed in room 504, and the air conditioning was noisy all night. Everything else was pretty good, though. The night market is just a block away from the hotel and is very lively, with local young people eating late-night snacks and drinking. It's less than a 20-minute walk to the Central Bus Station, which is quite convenient. Next door to the hotel is a restaurant called 'Piaopiao Fan' that accepts UnionPay cards with no extra fees. The hotel also has a laundry room with two washing machines and one dryer. You'll need to buy detergent from the front desk for 10,000 kip, and one packet is enough for at least three washes (I didn't buy it myself)."

"The hotel's location and environment are excellent, especially the rooftop infinity pool with its breathtaking views of the Mekong River. However, the strong smell of renovation in the rooms, especially those not facing the sun, was quite off-putting. As the second highest-rated luxury hotel in Vientiane, I'd hope they'd provide an air purifier in every room in the future. Placing them in public areas on each floor seems pointless. The air purifier on the fifth floor had a broken motor, creating an extremely loud noise, and it was never replaced. Additionally, the hotel's smart control system was very uncomfortable to use. The panel lacks proximity sensors, making it invisible at night. Voice control is also far away, and the system often glitches; pressing the panel at night would even turn on the TV. The air conditioning in the room worked very well, but the lobby air conditioning was poor. Also, the exquisite teapot only holds one bottle of water, and it overflows when boiled."

"The pool is clean, and the overall ambiance is lovely. You can relax by the poolside. It's suitable for both my elderly mother and young grandchild. The location is very convenient, close to many restaurants, and easy to get around. The staff also provides excellent service."

"My wife surprised me for a night in this wonderful spot. Everything was lovely, great location, staff were friendly, breakfast buffet can be a bit better for the style of hotel. But still great. Also I choose this hotel because swimming pool.. 🥰 everything is incredible"

"The hotel is conveniently located on the main street of France Street, making it easy to get to the Mekong River and the surrounding snack streets. The area around the hotel is full of tourists from various countries, with fewer Chinese visitors and more people from other nations. There are massage parlors nearby that are quite comfortable and affordable. The local food is also delicious, and you can explore the small bars at night – it's really quite nice."

"I usually choose hotels with a rating of 4.7 and over 500 reviews within my budget. This hotel didn't quite meet those criteria, but I booked it immediately after seeing a negative review complaining about the 'no smoking in rooms' policy! I absolutely detest cigarette smoke! It's fantastic that smoking is prohibited! First of all, I was traveling alone, and the room size was not small, and the cleanliness was also good. The service was decent, the breakfast was excellent, and the fruit was fresh. I'd deduct some points for the facilities: Although there was no window, the fresh air system made it not stuffy, which is a plus. The hairdryer was subpar, still using a slow 1000W model. I'd suggest sourcing some high-speed hairdryers from China (many brands available, low cost). The power outlets only had five-hole sockets. I recommend sourcing some panels with Type-C/USB ports from China, which wouldn't add much to the cost (you can find these easily at Huaqiangbei in China). The air conditioning was powerful, but even at the lowest fan speed, the noise was still significant. So I opted to turn off the AC and the fresh air system for a good night's sleep, as sleeping well is very important! Overall, I still highly recommend this hotel, which is completely smoke-free and prohibits durian. It was perfect for me!"

"Title: Extended from 2 nights to 5 nights! Great stay in Vientiane! ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0/5 Very Good I originally booked Eastin Hotel Vientiane for only 2 nights, but I ended up enjoying my stay so much that I extended it for 5 full nights and canceled my plans to switch to another hotel! Here is my honest review of why I loved staying here: Stunning River View: The hotel is located right along the Mekong River. The night view and atmosphere from the rooftop bar are fantastic—perfect for unwinding in the evening. Delicious Dining: The breakfast spread offers a great variety of fresh fruits, pastries, and hot items. Ordering lunch and dinner at the hotel was also a hit—the Tom Yum soup and Pad Kra Pao were fresh, hot, and packed with authentic flavor! Clean & Comfortable: The room design with cool blue and white tones feels very clean and soothing. The bed was super comfortable for a good night's rest. Friendly Staff: Every staff member was attentive, polite, and always greeted me with a warm smile. Overall, it's a wonderful choice if you are visiting Vientiane. Highly recommended, and I would definitely stay here again!"
