Hotels with Swimming Pools in Pakse

This hotel is in need of a little TLC which is currently taking place but all the important stuff is there. Soft comfy bed, good aircon, good shower and plenty of hot water. Great views of the river and bridge. Great pool and breakfast in a lovely indoor restaurant. The evening restaurant has fantastic views over the river and a good selection of local and international dishes. The building itself and lobby is very impressive and is immediately visible when entering Pakse. The staff couldn’t be more friendly and attentive, particularly the girls on reception who were very helpful. We really enjoyed our stay and it was our favourite hotel in Laos yet very competitively priced.

We stayed for six nights at the resort and had a wonderful stay. On arrival we were loaded onto a golf buggy for the short drive to our accommodation. Our room was a very generous size with a large, fan cooled balcony overlooking the well maintained extensive gardens. Some elements of the room and bathroom were a little tired, but for the price we paid and considering the low occupancy of the resort I can understand why upgrading the rooms has yet to happen. After our first night we headed out to find that pushbikes had been delivered to our room, which came in very helpful for getting around the resort. We spent some time at the pool, which is a good length for decent swimming and has a handy poolside bar. It was a shame that the waterslide wasn't functional during our stay, I guess this was down to the low occupancy, but as paying guests it would have been appreciated if they had turned the water on so we could use it! We took advantage of motorbike hire from the resort, there were a number of options available and our bike served us well for the ten minute ride into town and also for trips further afield to the Bolaven plateau, waterfalls and Wat Phu temple. We had breakfast and a number of evening meals at the restaurant. Yes the breakfast has to be ordered the night before, but this really wasn't a problem for us. The service from the waiting staff was good, they were very courteous, just a little nervous. We found this to be an excellent choice for our Pakse stay, being just out of town means it's very peaceful, with uninterrupted views of the surrounding hills and was better value than smaller, city centre hotels.

Located at the river Mekong, a bit outside town center. Nice view, but there is a lot of construction work along the river and the area is not very lively. All of Pakxe is in walking distance (restaurants, market, shops), there is a mini-market nearby. Rooms are a bit uncharitable, but ok. Nothing to sit on the balcony and only one chair in the room. Quiet at night, did sleep well.
