We stayed 1 night here as walk ins and were pleasantly surprised by the quality and value. The rooms were medium sized and had a furnished balcony with wonderful views across the Mekong to Laos. Dinner in the restaurant was tremendous value with very good food and generous portions. The added bonus was live entertainment, good cocktails and cheap beer.... More

We stayed 2 nights (november 2011) in standard room including breakfast for 1000bt/night. In 2006 we stayed also 2 nights in this hotel for 600bt/night … at that time , this hotel was brandnew. There are 2 rates : 1000bt for a room without a view on the Mekong river, 1500bt for a room with view on Mekong river; actually... More

Like so many others, we stayed here for one night before the slow boat down the Mekong. It is a basic hotel that was clean and cheap. Our room was on the top floor with a lovely view of the river. It was on the small side, but perfect for me (I personally don’t see the need for huge hotel... More

In the context of a $33 room in a border town, this place exceeded our expectations. We opted for the cheaper "garden view" room and still ended up with a pretty river view from our balcony. They have free wi-fi now. The breakfast buffet that was included wasn't so good, but the lunch and dinner that we ordered off the... More

I would start by saying we stayed in Chiang Khong as neccessity to our 2 day/1 night slow boat trip along the Mekong River to Luang Prabang. The views of the Mekong River and Huay Xai in Laos on the other bank are fantastic from your balcony. Gecko's are abundant both outside and inside the hotel, and I'd recommend protection... More

Overall a good place with minor problems. Internet is a bit expensive. The pool is extra. Towels are extra. The buffet ran out before everyone got food. We stayed here one night on our way to Laos and the trip itself was well organized and the location and the rooms are nice.

My wife and I stayed one night at the Namkhong Riverside before going on a cruise down the Mekong River to Luang Prabang. The hotel was without doubt one of the nicest we stayed at during our 7 week holiday in SE Asia. The rooms were spotlessly clean and well fitted out, with a nice bathroom. To our delight we... More

We stayed for one night before crossing into Laos the next day. The Hotel is ideal for clients who don't want to risk backpacker style accomodation. Indeed, I think this is the only non backpacker option in town. Overlooking the river the views are excellent and fuels the expectation of whats to come across the river. However the staff were...

We stayed here before heading to the boat trip to Luang Prabang. The location is excellent, the rooms overlooking the Mekong river and the restaurant has excellent food. Service is a bit slow and need to be improved. The can arrange travel service for the boats. Breakfast is okay, it is all about the location. Rooms are small but very... More

I just spent one night here on my way from Laos to Chiang Mai. This hotel was inexpensive (800 baht for a twin room). Nothing fancy at all, but the rooms are clean. There is a patio with a nice view. Room doesn't have a safe. Staff friendly. Restaurant on premises. One night in Chiang Khong is more than sufficient... More
