Ostello molto sporco ! Camere, bagni e aree comuni sempre in condizioni pietose , sul “rooftop” la mattina si é costretti a fare colazione su tavoli che non vengono puliti da giorni e per non parlare dell’atteggiamento dello staff, state alla larga ! Allo stesso prezzo potete trovare molto di meglio .

Traduit en anglais

Very dirty hostel ! rooms, bathrooms and common areas always in pitiful condition, on the rooftop in the morning if you are forced to eat breakfast on tables that have not been cleaned for days and not to mention the attitude of the staff, stay away ! for the same price you can find much better.

worst hostel i stayed at so far, there was mold on my pillow and on the mattress above. God nows where else, the whole room smelled like mold and from what i heard the other rooms weren't better. Don't stay there.

Bathroom door would not lock and would always flood, Shower was cold. There was never any toilet paper. Walls were mouldy and had a few stains on my bed. Staff weren’t very helpful when I needed assistance in getting to the train station. Pool area was nice and good location, just overall weird vibes. I think it was overpriced too.

Bathrooms were clogged and showers would flood. There was almost always something wrong with every toilet. The man at the front desk was quite rude to us. Room was very crowded and dirty.

Accueil pas du tout chaleureux. Chambre et salle de bain dans un état déplorable, je ne sais pas depuis combien de temps le ménage n’a pas été fait dans la salle de bain mais c’était affreux. Pas d’aération, odeur d’humidité et cigarette. Aucun équipement : ni casier, ni rideau, ni drap (juste une couverture sale qui gratte). Eau payante, petit déjeuner aussi : ce dernier m’a donné la première tourista de mon voyage (pancake à la banane). Seul point positif : le rooftop pl...

Welcome not at all warm. Room and bathroom in a deplorable condition, I don't know how long the cleaning has not been done in the bathroom but it was horrible. No ventilation, smell of humidity and cigarettes. No equipment no locker, no curtains, no sheet (just a blanket sale qui gratte). Paid water, breakfast too: the latter gave me the first tourist of my trip (pancake with banana). Only positive point: the rooftop rather nice. To run away !!!

do not go here - the 10* reviews are all fake. Dirty floors & beds, dorms were crowded & no curtains whatsoever. There was *black mold* everywhere, esp. next to the bed. There‘s no cover for the blanket but you do need it as the AC is blasting & they won’t put it higher. The window didn’t close, so also not very safe + plenty of insects. Had to cancel my stay after 1 night bc it was too bad to stay.

Der Preis ist nicht angemessen für die Ausstattung des hostels Für den Preis was jeder bezahlt könnten sie mehr Brötchen für das Frühstück kaufen und nicht die gelassenen Brötchen von anderen Gästen zu anderen Gästen geben.. Die Mitarbeiter waren nicht so Hilfsbereich. Die Betten waren nicht stabil und sehr alt.

Dirty room, smelly bed, non working air conditioning, community room closes at 11pm, pool table in bad shape, staff not friendly, moldy and broken showers. Everything is without love or decoration, worn down and broken stuff is not repaired. The scooter they rented to me was also crappy and broke down. An absolutely no-go place. Find something else, don’t book here. Not worth the money.

+ It was in a good location, clean and comfy and the staff were absolutely amazing. They were all so welcoming and sat us down straight away with a map of the best places to see/eat in Luang Prabang. They were brilliant with helping us book a tour and were so kind to us

+ J'ai beaucoup apprécié mon séjour dans cet établissement qui est exceptionnel. Il est bien situé, à 400 m du centre. A distance de marche on trouve tout ce qu'il faut, restaurants, salons de massage, petits magasins. Il est agréable de visiter la ville à pied et de se promener le long du Mékong. Les gérants de l'hôtel sont très accueillants, ils organisent les activités, peuvent changer les devises étrangères. Le petit déjeuner est inclus ce qui est un plus. Ma chambre était spacieuse et bien équipée.

It’s a pretty decent hostel for the price, I wouldn’t stay longer than one night. The staff are very nice and it is clean. However, the pool isn’t actually a pool- it only goes up to your knees. Not very social. Not the worst, but not the best..

Staff were helpful with motorbike rental and laundry. The beds were okay but the room was too hot. Photos of the pool are a bit misleading too as it is basically a big bath of water.

I recently stayed at Vongprachan Backpackers Hostel, located in Luang Prabang. Overall, it was a pleasant place to stay with friendly (english speaking) staff, and a good location. The hostel has a cool rooftop with a lot of potential, but the cleanliness was questionable and the pool didn’t seem very well maintained. (Only wifi in reception)

Staying here was like staying in a detention center, with a pool. There was 1/5 functional toilets on our floor. The rest were clogged with shit. May I add that the one functional toilet had no toilet seat. We didn’t get a sheet for the bed. I slept in a ball. But maybe that’s okay because the aircon is so bad. Additionally, I slept next to an open window and was awoken by a cockerel. Needless to say, I left after 1 night.

It was an okay experience. The facilities itself were quite old as well as the rooms. The pool was across the street and only one sunbed. I wouldnt recommend it there. There were no vibe at all there

J’ai vécu une expérience extrêmement traumatisante dans cet hostel. Un homme m’a touchée dans mon sommeil lors de ma première nuit. Lorsque j’ai signalé l’agression à la réception, le staff n’a montré aucune empathie et n’a absolument pas pris la situation au sérieux. On m’a renvoyée deux fois dans des dortoirs mixtes alors que je demandais clairement un dortoir féminin. Je ne me suis jamais sentie en sécurité.

I had an extremely traumatic experience in that hostel. a man touched me in my sleep on my first night. when i reported the assault at the reception, the staff showed no empathy and absolutely did not take the situation seriously. i was sent back to mixed dormitories twice even though i clearly requested a women's dormitory. i never felt safe. in addition, men over 60 were circling the dormitories in underwear.

Buena localización y limpieza. Hay baño en cada habitación y también baños compartidos fuera de la habitación es un acierto. Personal muy amable. Desayuno incluido aunque un poco escaso.
