Je recommande pour faire la boucle 👍🏼

Personnel très gentil Location de scooter et moto à bon prix, matériels de qualité. Possibilité de déposer ses bagages gratuitement pendant la boucle et même de faire une douche en rentrant 👍🏼

Il est indiqué une réception 24h/24h ce qui n’est pas le cas. Nous avons du sonner à plusieurs reprises pour que quelqu’un se lève pour nous ouvrir lors de notre arrivée tardive (bus de nuit) Cependant le personnel a été très accueillant malgré tout.

Propre et ambiance familiale. Très serviables et souriants

Chambrette propre et bien équipée Ambiance familiale. De quoi se restaurer : carte succincte mais très bons plats et très bien servie. Un peu excentrée dans une ville peu attractive. Loue des scooter. Penser à réserver, même s'ils sont très serviables....

Prima voor 1 nacht

De douche en het aardige personeel. De prijs-kwaliteit verhouding was prima

Het leek alsof wij een kamer kregen waar aan geklust werd. De muren waren niet af en het plafond had heftige lekkage gehad. Niet heel verwelkomend.

Great stay

We enjoyed our stay here - the staff were lovely, small but tasty menu, clean and comfy rooms, and great to leave bags/sort out the Thakhek Loop from here. Some hammocks on the property to sit outside which is nice :)

Little far from the town and the dogs in Thakhek can be aggressive so I wouldn’t want to walk to or from the guesthouse in the dark

Endroit agreable

eau chaude et froide à disposition, cadre sympa, beaucoup de grimpeurs, TB ambiance. Nous n’hésiterions pas à revenir. Personnel gentil.

bruyant entre le karaoke le soir pas loin et les guests qui parfois parlent fort, car aucune isolation sonore. matelas et oreillers surtout très durs. Un peu loin du centre.

Basic but reasonable

It was relatively close to the main centre,a 15 min slow walk. Staff had all the knowledge needed for the stay. Lovely garden courtyard to enjoy free coffee and have a yarn, or read a book.

The bed was a but hard, and the place was l9cked up when I arrived late due to the bus journey, even though I kept sending messages to update them, which was disappointing, though I eventually got in

zeer aangenaam- heel goede herinnering

De locatie is buiten het centrum, maar in een rustige en mooie omgeving De cabana's op de bovenverdieping hebben een schitterend terras. zeer vriendelijke personeel

Het transport van de bus terminal naar het hotel is lastig. De tuc-tuc hebben een kartel gevormd en de prijzen zijn hoog. , communicatie met het hotel vooraf, via booking werd niet beantwoord.

Bon rapport qualité prix

Très bon rapport qualité prix. Chambre bien aménagée avec des rangements. Hôte adorable, qui nous a aidés à trouver un bus de nuit pour Pakse alors que tout le monde nous disait qu’ils étaient complets !

Emplacement à 25min à pieds du centre et beaucoup de chiens errants… Salle de bain petite, et quelques odeurs d’égouts mais on l’a signalé et on a été changés de chambre.

Thakhek

Clean sheets, comfy bed, a fan. Staff helpful & obliging, small shop on site. Free hot water (for drinks) & basic communal kitchen area.

The bathroom, while essentially clean, was basic & could have benefitted from a lick of paint in something other than bilious green. Mirrors could have been cleaned too.

Très bon rapport qualité prix

Le personnel est très avenant et gentil. Le restaurant est très bon. Ils gardent les sacs pendant la boucle.

La chambre mérite un peu de rénovation mais pour le prix c'est correct.

Séjour en famille avant et après la boucle

Nous avons apprécié la gentillesse du personnel .Nous sommes arrivés très tôt, nous avons pu poser nos sacs et partir déjeuner ! Il y a un service de Laundry ,la location de scooters. Nous avons laissé nos sacs pendant la boucle et en revenant nous avons pu attendre tranquillement notre bus de nuit à l'extérieur, et même nous avons pu prendre une douche !Au top pour avant et après la boucle

L'accès de la station de bus est à 40 min et le centre à 20 min à pied

OK for a night

Most of the room was clean, quiet place at night, shop in the street, organised tuktuk for us, very cheap

Insects in the room when we arrived, very hard bed, could not really stand upright in the bathroom, maybe we were unlucky because only the budget room on booking was available.

Nice stay

The bus was so late getting into town, I didn't arrive until just after 11pm. I had messaged the property to update them and it was no problem at all. So friendly, the room is basic but clean and does the job for one night before starting the loop.

Comfortable stay, nice and helpful staff

Really cheap and comfortable. Staff is nice and very helpful. Free coffee and water. We stayed the night before the Thakek loop and the night after, they kept our bigger luggage during our absence. We rented our scooter through the lady and also booked our bus ticket to Pakse through her, she drove us to the bus station in the morning. It’s not very close to the center but there is a restaurant right in front of the guesthouse as well as a small store close-by.

A nice place to stay

Quiet and spacious. The room was simple with no added extras like a fridge, but it was clean with tables and chairs outside to relax out of the sun. It’s a popular spot for people doing the Thakhet loop so lots of good company!

It’s a little way out of town so having your own transport is used. There are plenty of places to rent motorcycles including the guesthouse.

A bit too far from the center, but good for doing the loop

The guesthouse offers a laundry service and helps to book a scooter and bus tickets. In addition, you can store your luggage at the guesthouse while doing the loop. And you can take a shower when returning from the loop even if you don't stay for another night.

The guesthouse is in a residential area with only one restaurant directly opposite the guesthouse, which opens at noon. So if you want to have breakfast, you either need a motorbike or need to be lucky to get one of the two existing bicycles or have to call a tuk tuk or have to walk quite a bit. If you want to spend the evening at the riverside, it's the same problem and there are many dogs around that are barking, so walking might be not so nice. Another negative aspect was the promise of free banana and coffee, which would be a great thing in a neighborhood without many other options, that wasn't kept. We stayed for three days and during the whole time there was neither bananas nor coffee. And unfortunately there's no mosquito net or possibility to fix your own mosquito net in the room.

Lovely staff, comfy bed, can use bikes for free, close to the centre and some restaurants

One of our rooms didn’t have a sink, but it wasn’t too much of a problem as there is a tap next to the shower

too basic

good help from hosts for planning transport, motorbikes etc. for budget travelers it might do the job.

very spartan basic rooms downstairs with no window. bathroom not that clean. location is outside the town with almost no eating options around.

the room was very small, and the ventilation was poor. would have been better if the window had a screen so you could keep it open through the night.

Good for short stay

The staff is very helpful! Room are very basic but comfortable enough for a short stay. The seatings outside and a small coffee/tea area is a very nice extra.

Definitely needs some updates.

Perfect staff, they helped in any issue. Free coffee ans bananas. Booking of transportation and trips.

Room A8 is very small, no sink in bathroom. But reasonable and acceptable for the price.

A good place to start and finish the loop

Great place to stay whilst doing the loop. We started and ended here and booked the room for the entire stay to keep our stuff safe (it was affordable for us to do this). I've seen on other reviews that they will store your stuff whilst you're on the loop so you don't have to book and pay for a room whilst you're away. The hotel staff are young, cool and friendly. They arranged the bikes for us and had them delivered to the accommodation; the bikes were in very good condition. The place is a little walk away from town but once you have the bikes it's easy to get around. We did walk back one night after sunset and the street dogs from town to the hotel can be rather aggressive, so it's not advised to walk around at night- this is not the hotel owners fault; they are not responsible for the street dogs of laos! We booked the bus from here to the capital with the hotel, you pay a bit more but the owner does transport you to the bus station in a 4x4 nice and early so you can get a good seat. If you want to save a little bit of money you can buy your ticket yourself at the bus station for 150,000kip but you also have to find your own way to the bus station

I wasn't sure where the free bananas, coffee and tea was and I was too shy to ask. Maybe let the people know when they arrive where they can access the tea and coffee :) thanks
