"Went to stay at Mad Monkey for 3 days in the shared dorm for the doublebed room for couples. It was some lovely people and very helpful staf. It has happy hour for 4 hours a day, you get a free drink when arriving and they have aircon in the rooms. The rooms are still warm but feel quite private.
We enojyed the pool area, especially at night where you could look at the stars and swim around before going to bed.
Bathrooms and showers are shared and looks nice. Could be a bit cleaner for our...

"The staff is really the star here. The property is beautiful and I have no complaints. But the attention to details of the staff in making sure my stay was premium. They went above and beyond. So surprised they offered dropoff /pick up to the city center as well as free bicycle rentals. Would definitely stay here again."
"Incredible place and an absolutely perfect experience.
The Rosewood Luang Prabang represents the best hospitality with the warmth of the Lao personality. Located beside (astride??) a lovely waterfall, the Rosewood is a peaceful resort with an intimate feel. We especially recommend suite #2 for its peaceful location just by the waterfall.
The restaurant on property serves high quality Lao specialties and international options. The warmth of the staff and attention of the general manager added to the qualiity of our stay. We also took advantage of the staff's advice/booking for local restaurants, which worked out perfectly as well.
We travelled to this property with a group of friends, and each of us loved this place. Speaking of friends, the bar served cocktails inspired by local flavors and was a great place to gather before or after excursions in the area.
We were glad for the location 10 minutes away from town, which really feels perfect. We enjoyed car service into town whenever we needed it.
This experience has turned us into fans of the Rosewood brand, and we look forward to exploring more of their properties on future travels.
Thank you, Rosewood Luang Prabang"
"I was extremely disappointed with this hotel - we checked out two days early. It is at best a 3 star hotel. Only stay if you get a cheap deal and don’t expect 5 star service or standards.
The WiFi doesn’t work we had to use 5G
We had to wake up the bar server twice, the first time Christmas songs were played (in March!!) and the second time it was silent and had absolutely no atmosphere.
We paid extra for a riverside view to watch sunset, don’t bother - hoards to boats arrive outside the hotel and play Chinese karaoke, loudly - it certainly doesn’t make for a peaceful or romantic setting - I appreciate there is nothing the hotel can do about this.
The rooms are very tired. Our flights flickered significantly when we turned on the water. They are also not that clean, there was significant dust on the headboard.
There is construction work going on around the hotel that we were not told about upon booking.
The pool is rented out to anyone for $6 inc beers, we didn’t use this but again doesn’t fit with an exclusive 5star feel.
The speciality dining restaurant is shut.
Staff service is haphazard, we had to have an argument with the ma on the gate who refused to let our taxi into the hotel and made us walk - again all very minor but not 5 star. We tried to check out quietly but was greeted by the Operations manager who wanted my feedback, which I provided, he agreed the hotel was not up to standard and agreed to email me, not unsurprisingly I haven’t received an email.
