Vang Vieng Romantic Place Resort

Good: Nothing Bad: The bedrooms have NO WINDOW (so forget about the Mountain View). The bathrooms have NO SHOWER CABIN (and no window of course), so the floor is wet the whole night when you go to the toilets. The bedsheets are DIRTY with traces of blood and other on them, and look kind of yellowish cause, yeah, when you run a hotel you need to buy new bedsheets once in a while. The breakfast consists of POWDER COFFEE, 2 boiled eggs, bananas, and two pan fried toasts. The location is RIDICULOUS, with very limited eating offering on this side of the river. The only « pedestrian bridge » to reach downtown is a 12 minutes walk away, following a road that no one wants to walk along (smelly Tuktuks and noisy motorcycles). The receptionist speaks NO ENGLISH except « CASH ONLY», with NO ATM ON THIS SIDE of the river. The so called « Sofia » manager -if she ever existed- left months ago. Friend, I understand that local entrepreneurs need to make money from foreign travelers and am happy to contribute. But you can’t expect to provide backpackers hostel standard and charge the price of a superior room at your competitors. For 35 USD for a room and 65 USD for a Bungalow, your patient and respectful foreign travelers will expect clean sheets, a window in their bedroom and freshly brewed coffee when they wake up. At least. So if you don’t know how to up your game, then fill each of your no-window bedrooms with four ranges of bunk beds and charge 6 USD / backpacker. No hard feelings then. Anyway, after shortening my stay at the « romantic » I moved on the right side of the river where I got a superior room that ticks all the boxes above - for just 27 USD / night. Hope you see the problem.

It's quiet and the breakfast is great. I can communicate well with the hotel in English. It offers a great view to enjoy the scenery of Vang Vieng.

酒店在城市外圍，風景確實很漂亮，每天都能看到熱氣球，但是意味着交通和生活確實很不便利，周邊沒有太多店鋪，走到市區需要2公里左右，晚上回來的路很黑，如果沒租車的話，需要考慮一下路程。 衞生確實很不OK，我覺得我第一天睡的床根本沒有換床品，第二天在我的要求下又換了一次。酒店環境比較野生，所以房間會出現蟲子和壁虎。 幾乎沒有太多服務，酒店只有一位員工懂英語。早餐是點的，但是味道一般般，上菜速度也很慢。 如果租好了車，想要遠離市區看美景，可以來，他們在粉刷新的房間，也許會有改善。但是想要方便和服務的，不太推薦。
