Hotel was extremely clean, the staff was so nice and helpful, they have bike for free that let you discover the city at your own pace. The rooms are spacious and the decoration is beautiful.

although some aspects of the room could have been designed better (shower, patio access) it was a very nice room and the hotel and gardens are beautiful. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

A sanctuary in Luang Prabang!

The Sanctuary is a wonderful hotel for your stay in Luang Prabang. The staff could not have been more helpful nor more gracious. The breakfast included with our room was stellar and scrumptious with a variety of Laotian as well as western treats. The daily screening of the 1927 movie on Laos, Chang, is inspired. We loved our stay!

8/10 Very good

Pleasant,good location, neighboring property was noisy & it may be a concern to some but I did not mind. Staff very pleasant & helpful.

10/10 Exceptional

Loved it

The hotel is set in gardens and pond. The room we had - upgraded - was spacious and clean with all amenities provided and was next to the swimming pool. The breakfast building is positioned next to the pond and extends over it. The staff there were friendly and helpful. Reception staff were all incredibly polite and assisted with suggestions for our walks around town. We really did enjoy our stay and would definitely come again.

Location is great, comfortable and accommodating

The location of the hotel is right in the heart of the city. Close walk to all the restaurants, bars, rivers and the night market. You can walk to around the city easily from the hotel. The rooms were clean and serviced regularly. Our requests were done punctually by the friendly staff. We were also allowed a late check out. The Buffet breakfast was nice and set in a relaxing environment.

a lots of Chinese , Korean . they are super noisy then I cannot stay comfortable. Breakfast , more than 5 staff monitor, gaze me then feel uncomfortable.

10/10 Exceptional

We absolutely loved our stay at The sanctuary. We were upgraded to a suite and the room was perfect with traditional style wood throughout. The breakfast was so good, a great choice and good coffee with lots to choose from. The pool was a lovely place to cool off after a hot day sight seeing and I can recommend a visit to their spa for a massage and facial . Lastly the staff are so tentative, kind and more than happy to help with anything you require. We booked for 5 nights and could have stayed longer, we will book back in on our way through luang next week. Thank you

2/10 Poor

Do NOT book the Superior room. All the other rooms are on the property. We checked in and they took us up a few stairs and our room is right above the reception desk. It is terribly noisy, no privacy, so uncomfortable and unsafe. You can hear everyone checking in and staff talking which means everyone can hear you. Right across drom room where staff sleep so noisy !!! We immediately asked to check out and for refund for not as advertised and told non refundable. We lost hundreds of dollars we checked out early as we couldnt stay. We gave it one night it was crazy loud. Not sure what its like to stay on property as our room was not. They wouldnt serve us hreakfast or coffee even though paid for it with room. SCAM!!!! Staff so rude and argumentative. I couldnt believe it. We are well traveled international travelers who travel several months a year. Manager so rude. This was worst experience we ever had.

Peaceful yet close to everything

We stayed 5 nights. The place was baby friendly. Everyone was very kind. Every time we opened the door, we had the wow feelings. The pond, flowers, design...

A real Sanctuary...

I had the pleasure of 8 nights here and an upgraded room also. My room was spacious, tasteful with comfy bed ad I had a generous shower and deep tub. I looked over onto the most stunning lily pond and palm gardens all kept beautifully by the ground staff. The pool was small, unheated, serene and clean. I swam every day. The breakfasts are full of fresh aswell as pastries, fruit with eggs and noodles cooked to order. Overall, a very stylish, central to everything, little oasis where the Asian architecture is nestled in lush greenery, bicycles are plentiful to hire at no charge and staff are extremely polite and helpful. I really loved it here and would recommend it for a restful break, a family stay or a night or two.

Eco friendly hotel ideally situated in Luang Praba

Due to an admin error on my part we arrived a day earlier than expected, the staff were very helpful and managed to get us into our rooms without any fuss. The hotel is beautiful, centrally located and the staff are very helpful. We had massages in the spa on a couple of days and again the staff were excellent. I cannot recommend this hotel enough.
