The Belle Rive Boutique Hotel

Had an excellent stay in Luang Prabang and choosing the right hotel was the first part of it. The hotel was in excellent location in the old town and along the Mekong river. Room was well decorated with local motif . The included breakfast was fantastic with lots of choices ( i particularly like the fried rice!). And not to forget the staff.. they are top notch with special mention to those who are in breakfast restaurant area!

Beautifully decorated and appointed heritage style boutique hotel with many nice touches such as free drinks in the room. Good breakfast choices in riverside restaurant. Very helpful staff willing to arrange personalized excursions.

This boutique hotel is perfect for solo travellers and couples. It is located alongside the river thus affording an easy and relaxing view of the Mekong, if you dont mind the low murmur of passing boats. A few steps across the street from the hotel is the terrace restaurant, the hotel's extension where breakfast is served daily. I think this is the main draw. One can just relax here and take in the fresh air while enjoying a drink. It is a front row seat to witness the daily flow of life in the river. On the other side, the bank is covered in vegetation, deep greens and sprayed in spots with red flowers of the firetree. I could sit there whole day. The hotel arranges a complimentary sunset cruise for interested guests. During my stay, I had the whole cruise to myself as the rest backed out in the last minute. Gliding through the brownish waters of the Mekong with a drink in one hand, i took in the whole experience feeling like a million dollar! The staff were super attentive and feels like old friends. My room on the second floor waz clean and cozy. I just wished I stayed in a 1 level floor room as it is becoming a challenge going up and down the loft at night. Thank you Belle Rive...c'était merveilleux.....au revoir for now...will be back!

Beautiful hotel in an historic building. Loved the plantation shutters and balcony overlooking river. Complimentary sunset boat ride with drink was wonderful. Also nice was the free bikes to borrow and free mini bar drinks throughout your stay. Little touches like this put this hotel over the top.

Lovely time on the Mekong! It was a lovely room in a charming boutique hotel. The staff was helpful and knowledgeable and gave us a lot of recommendations. The first day we were offered a complimentary sunset boat ride on the Mekong, which was very romantic and peaceful. I would stay here again!

Lovely hotel with very high service level. Very comfortable bed and nice breakfast at the river side. Would come again.
