Memorable stay by the River Mekong
Pros:

It’s right by the River and their breakfast is fantastic. I really enjoyed the river cruise as well. The staff are amazing and go out of their way to make you have a pleasant stay. I was a solo female traveler and I highly recommend staying here. The location is central and you can easily walk/bike to all the places. They also help you arrange trips to the waterfalls. Thank you.

Établissement, atypique et très confortable avec un personnel de qualité
Pros:

Le style, l’authenticité, après il mériterait ma part de mettre quelques fenêtres et autres huisseries en double vitrage

Pros:

Struttura stile retro', molto bella, tenuta benissimo e super pulita. Ottima la posizione, con vista sul fiume Mekong dove è ubicato il ristorante dell'hotel in cui viene servita la colazione. L'hotel offre anche numerosi servizi descritti accuratamente. Ottimi i massaggi ed il corso di cucina laotiana che consiglio vivamente. Staff gentilissimo, in grado di fornire tutte le informazioni. Ottima posizione, in 5 minuti a piedi è possibile raggiungere la via principale ricco di negozi e ristoranti. Super consigliato!

Luang Prabang I love you!
Pros:

A beira do Mekong esse hotel boutique é charmoso e aconchegante. Tomar café na beira do Mekong, vendo o Rio passar foi uma experiência inesquecível. Somphone nos atendeu de forma simpática e eficiente. Nos emprestou bicicletas, deu dicas de restaurantes, reservou tuk tuk, reservou bilhetes de trem. Amamos a cidade! Povo adorável! Tudo lindo! Espero voltar!

Cons:

Gostei de tudo!

Lovely Hotel on the Mekong.
Pros:

My husband and I loved our stay here at the Belle Rive. The staff are professional, friendly and kind. Kai was so helpful booking our trip to the Elephant Village, printing out our train tickets to Vientiane and giving us information on things around town. The food in the restaurant is delicious. The restaurant is right on the Mekong River with incredible views. Breakfast was included in our accommodation and it was amazing. We really enjoyed chatting with all the employees as they were so friendly. The hotel is very clean. There are free bicycles one can use as well as umbrellas. If you choose to book the maisonette please note that there are stairs to get up to your loft bedroom . I also would recommend ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. I am and I slept fine. If the mattress is too hard they will provide a mattress topper for you. We definitely will stay here again next time we are in Luang Prabang!

Authentisches Boutiquehotel in toller Lage mit herausragendem Frühstück
Pros:

Ein sehr gemütliches Boutiquehotel in einem alten Gebäude. Wir hatten eine Maisonette mit Balkon und einem riesigen Doppelbett - sehr authentisch.
Das Frühstück im Restaurant am Fluss (oder wahlweise im Hotel) ist a-la-carte mit toller Auswahl.
Alle Angestellten, besonders aber im Restaurant, waren ausgesprochen freundlich und auch fröhlich.
Die Lage ist auch ausgezeichnet, in wenigen Minuten ist man zu Fuss an der Hauptstraße mit Restaurants, Geschäften, Tempeln und anderen Sehenswürdigkeiten.

Cons:

Alles war völlig problemlos - ein einziger Stromausfall hat nur wengie Mintuen gedauert.

The Belle Rive Boutique Hotel
Pros:

The Belle Rive was such a pretty hotel on the banks of the Mekong river. The staff spoke excellent English and were extremely helpful. The rooms were very comfortable, clean and full of character. The restaurant was just across the road right on the river bank and it was excellent. The food was delicious. We ate breakfast and dinner there with no complaints. We went on a complimentary sunset river cruise and were given a drink of our choice to enjoy. All in all I would highly recommend this beautiful little hotel.

Pros:

It is a beautiful small hotel overlooking the river. The rooms were Very spacious and comfortable. The staff are delighted and spoke excellent English and couldn't have been more helpful. The restaurant was on the side of the river and again the food was delicious. The breakfast was very good and plentiful.
The evening river cruise was included with our room and was so lovely.
It was our 2 nd visit to The Belle Rive and we would come back again.

Cons:

Nothing!

命の洗濯ができました!再訪したいところです!
Pros:

朝食がアラカルトで選べて、かつレベルが高かったのがよかったです。
3泊したのですが、メコン川を眺めながら色々と食べれたので飽きもこず、皆喜んでいました。
また、毎日Village Cat(いわゆる地域猫)がレストランに遊びに?来ていて、我々を接客(笑)してくれてました。

Cons:

良くなかった点ではないのですが、ラオスにはよいコーヒー豆もとれるので、部屋にドリッパーがあればよかったなあと思いました。

A perfect place to stay in Luang Prabang.
Pros:

We loved staying at Belle Rive. The staff were lovely, the location was perfect, the room was large, clean and comfortable, and the breakfast was delicious. As it was low season, they upgraded us to a room with a balcony. Whenever we had a question or needed something, there was someone there to help us. We enjoyed the free sunset boat tour, even though it was overcast and we didn't see the sunset. We also liked riding their bikes all around Luang Prabang.

Cons:

There was nothing that could be better. Everything was perfect.

ゆったりのんびり過ごしたかったのでそれが叶って嬉しかった。
Pros:

スタッフはフレンドリー、TVや過剰な設備もなくじゅうぶん快適に過ごせた。ワンドリンク付きサンセットクルーズはあいにく雲が多く夕日がはっきり見えなかったが、風も気持ちよく最高だった

Cons:

エアコンの効きが悪かった
