Laos Guest Houses

Every traveler would agree that accommodation eats up a large part of their travel budget.

If you're travelling on a tight budget and would like your dollars to go further, the first area to look into is your accommodation. Cut down your accommodation expenses by staying in guesthouses instead and you can save a good sum of money.

Most Laos guesthouses have all the facilities that a person needs to be comfortable such as clean beds, private bathrooms with hot/cold shower, cable TV, and Air-con. Best of all they are cheap.

Laos Guest House

In the tourist centres of Laos you will find a variety of budget guesthouses. Most offer decent rooms in the price range of US$5-30.

Mid-level range guesthouses have sprung up in recent years with many options available in the US$15-50 range.

Lao guesthouses are often filled up during the busy period of December to February and Lao New Year (April). In main cities and touristy towns like Luang Prabang and Vang Vieng they are fill up even faster during these periods. It is definitely worth booking ahead.

Even though a handful of guesthouses are available for booking online, most cheap guesthouses are a bit difficult to book through the internet. Why? ...because they don't have websites nor are they listed on specialist hotel booking sites. However, it is possible to book by email, fax or phone (guesthouse listed below have contact numbers). They also have reasonable English skills and a decent level of reliability and flexibility when holding reservations.

If you need a helping hand to book guest houses in Vientiane that can't be booked online, feel free to contact me through the contact form. I'll try to get back to you as soon as possible, but please allow at least 24 hours.

I've gathered a handful of guesthouses as listed here for your convenience, as examples or to use as a starting point.
