10/10 Exceptional

A very new and modern hotel. Did not expect to see such a great hotel in Vientiane. Fabulous breakfast with great quality and various variety. Great rooms and quiet. The pool usually gets sun after 11 o clock. There are umbrellas to protect you from sun if you like. Reasonably priced food beside the pool with wonderful staff. Had a very nice stay here. The environment is more business but any other travelers are welcome obviously.
