Fodor's Expert Review Sayo River Guest House

Khem Khong Rd., Ban Phonheuang, Luang Prabang, Louangphabang, Laos

A white colonial-style hotel with green shutters, the Sayo River Guest House is chic yet unpretentious. Combining old-world charm and a relaxed vibe, its rooms have mosquito nets, Lao comforters, and furnishings made from local wood. The property, one of two operated by the same owners, is on the Mekong River. Rooms 1 and 2 have private balconies, ideal for lazy afternoon river-watching.

PROS
