3 Best Hotels in Pakse, Laos

A premier boutique hotel in a refurbished historical corner building, Residence Sisouk is luxurious and charming, with original hardwood flooring and a mix of old and new furnishings. The large rooms have charming four-poster beds, parquet floors, high ceilings, spacious en-suite bathrooms, and romantic wraparound balconies filled with potted plants.

The old-world charm of this two-story building extends from spacious vintage-styled rooms to a lovely pool area, enclosed by long wooden planks. A cozy hall and restaurant welcome guests on the ground floor.

Pakse's oldest hotel was refurbished in 2018 and keeps offering well-maintained, centrally located rooms, though the deluxe ones are better value. They're furnished in bamboo and rattan, and have large beds, river views, a writing desk and chairs, and decent-sized bathrooms. The rooftop terrace and restaurant area is a pleasant sunset retreat, with a fine view of the town and surrounding countryside.
