I’m torn with this review. On one hand, this is a very nice social hostel and it has nice bathrooms. On the other hand, some dorms had bedbugs lol

Overall not bad, the hostel rooms could do with a bit of TLC and where all the beds are connected, if someone moved the whole bed moved. Breakfast was good and very sociable vibes at the hostel. There was not loads of seating around the pool though which made it quite cramped at times. Also staff were insistent there were no bed bugs after my multiple friends had found them in their room which wasn’t the bed. Luckily our room was fine but staff did not deal with it in the most professional way

Found bed bugs in our room. Management was uncooperative, reluctantly offering a 2-night refund after a lengthy discussion. Laundry service claimed 2-day turnaround despite offering express 3-6 hour option. When asked for express, staff threatened to call police multiple times. Unacceptable experience.

I had a lovely time here staff were nice and good value for money but I had a very bad case of bed bugs. When I told the staff they took it very seriously and moved everyone out of the room and cleaned everything. But there were bed bugs in 2 different rooms so I think it spread at this point so if you book a room please check your bed I got bitten very badly.

I love this hostel! I have to change my stay from different hostel to come here because there are bedbugs. And this hostel absolutely well cleans. Definitely not the party hostel but very social atmosphere and I met some nice friends there too The staff are super friendly, the vibe is always great, and everything is lovely and cozy. Breakfast was the best I've ever had. Just a really cool place to be. Can’t recommend it enough and no complaints

I enjoyed my stay at this hostel. The staff was lovely and the free breakfast was one of the best ones ive ever had in a hostel. The rooms were nice and the bathrooms sufficient. However, the pool does not have a cleaning system. It was also a bit weird there was a camera in the general bathroom area. During my stay some others also found bedbugs in their rooms and in the common area. While the staff did make sure to clean everything, i dont think they plan to fumigate the whole place.

The staff is extremely kind and helpful, the location can't be better and everything is sparkling clean. The atmosphere is perfect for young people. We read that there were bed bugs in Laos and checked the bed in my room and friends room, however there was nothing and happy to stay relaxing for 5 nights

Staff are lovely, great location, beds are comfy! Unfortunately both me and my friend had a significant amount of money stolen from our bags during our stay. Can’t say who it was, but the place poses a big security risk. Front door wide open and dorms never lock, no lockers for big bags either just little ones in the bunks. There were also bedbugs in a few of the rooms (luckily not ours) while we were there. To be fair, they handled the bedbug issue quickly and professionally, but still scary.

Análisis del ambiente
Golden Dragon House es una base central en Vang Vieng con una sensación más suave y familiar que los hostels principales de fiesta. El personal puede ayudar a coordinar tubing, globos aerostáticos, paramotor, bicis, trenes, buses, lavandería e ideas locales, así que la logística se resuelve fácil desde la recepción. El lugar puede ser social, especialmente para viajeros solos, pero suele ser más predrinks-y-chill que caos total. Poppy la cachorra es parte de la personalidad de la casa. Junto con la pequeña sensación familiar alrededor de recepción, le da al hostel un ritmo más hogareño que una fábrica estándar de dorms. El desayuno es una fortaleza real acá, con opciones hechas a pedido y suficiente cariño repetido como para volverlo una de las apuestas más seguras de la estadía. Las camas de dorm suelen ser cómodas y a menudo tienen cortinas, enchufe, luces, repisas y lockers pequeños. Los baños y duchas pueden estar muy limpios en buenos días, y el área común tiene mesa de pool más una piscina pequeña, aunque la calidad de la piscina es irregular. La ubicación es caminable a bares, restaurantes, mercado nocturno y 7-Eleven, con noches tranquilas y música fuerte posibles según el momento y la posición de la habitación.
Señales a revisar
- Las renovaciones de la piscina causaron ruido serio en junio de 2026, así que revisa el estado actual antes de reservar.
- Los baños han tenido problemas recurrentes con cucarachas, mosquitos, jabón, papel higiénico, papeleros, olor y limpieza irregular.
- Algunos dorms y privadas pueden ser apretados, calurosos, sin ventana, oscuros o cortos de almacenamiento.
- La seguridad y asignación de dorms pueden ser irregulares: puertas sin cerrar, lockers débiles, ubicación en dorm mixto tras reservar dorm femenino y conducta borracha nocturna han sido problemas.
- La piscina puede estar sucia o poco tentadora, y las privadas pueden sentirse de mal valor comparadas con los dorms.
