This stay was incredibly good value for money! I originally booked a standard single room, and when I checked in, the front desk said they were fully booked, which made my heart sink a little. But then, the lovely front desk staff upgraded me to a deluxe room for free! I didn't even have to pay extra, which was a really nice gesture.
Once I entered the room, it was super clean and cozy. The bedding was comfortable, and the lighting created a great ambiance. When I drew the curtains at night, the city view was absolutely stunning! It was so brightly lit up, and any photo I took looked like it belonged in a magazine. Before coming, I'd heard many celebrities had stayed here and filmed on location. The last time Yu Minhong from New Oriental was on his Southeast Asia trip, he did a live broadcast right outside, with this very hotel, Huilan Hotel, in the background. I'd also heard about it in my self-driving group, as Thai and Malaysian car teams often choose this as their starting point for rallies. It definitely makes for great photos – highly recommended for anyone who loves taking pictures! 👍👍
In the lobby the next morning, I met an elderly gentleman in a traditional Chinese red outfit. He was smiling and tied a red string on my wrist. I asked about it and learned it's a Lao tradition where elders tie strings on younger people for protection against evil and to ensure safety. It turned out the grandpa was Chinese, over 70 years old, and in excellent spirits! Later, I saw several self-driving teams from Thailand lining up for this ritual before they set off. It's like receiving blessings even before the wheels start turning – this cultural ceremony felt so genuine and heartwarming.
Breakfast on the second floor had a wide variety of options, and everything looked healthy and delicious. There were fresh fruits and freshly cooked dishes – very satisfying. The most unexpected find was the self-service laundry on the rooftop, complete with a dryer that had English, Chinese, and Lao language options! When traveling in Southeast Asia during the rainy season, the biggest fear is not having dry clothes, so this amenity is incredibly thoughtful for self-driving travelers. The multi-language interface makes it easy for international guests too.
On the second morning, a car team was leaving, and the hotel staff lined up to wave them off, even interacting with guests with high-fives. It wasn't just a formality; their enthusiasm was genuine. From the free upgrade upon arrival to the smiling farewell, I felt truly cared for throughout my stay.
I highly recommend this hotel to self-driving groups, photography enthusiasts, and anyone looking for a unique cultural experience. The facilities are top-notch, the service is heartfelt, and the exclusive Lao string-tying ceremony is an experience unlike any other. Once you've stayed here, you'll understand why so many car teams choose it as their starting point.
Next time I'm on a self-driving trip in Southeast Asia, I'll definitely stay at Huilan again! 😍😍
Apartment style
New city new building
Bed is ok
Located close to restaurants
Lao is expensive at this time December 2023
Staff speaks English good for a western person
Also google translate for Chinese
Not much to see in Boten new high rise buildings from
Pasture land or pampas grass amazing amount of new construction.
The hotel staff were very welcoming, the room was spacious and bright, and everything was spotlessly clean. The front desk lady was also very polite and check-in was super fast. The room price was really affordable, offering great value for money. It wasn't just a comfortable stay; it felt like home. This is my honest review of the hotel. Next time I'm in Mohan, I'll definitely choose to stay here again.
A good hotel in Boten. The onsen was not filled with water, maybe because it was December. The room was new, high-tech and clean. Amazing bed and sleep. The staff could speak a little bit of English, but they tried their best and it all worked out in the end. Free shuttle to the train station.
Stayed for a night on a business trip, the location is not mentioned, because it is too small, there is no city center or city center, downstairs is full of food and play, including the kind you want to play, there is a big supermarket next door, I saw a few bad reviews before, maybe the peers are spoofing, The Lao waiter in the room was very serious. I also tipped. She was not surprised. The front desk service was also very good. The driver was a bit dry and dry. He asked him not to sit at the front desk in the future.
In short, a sentence is worth recommending, rest assured to stay!
Let's start with the positives: the room was clean and tidy, but also completely overpriced. We had booked 3 nights through Trip.com and were told we'd have to switch rooms after two nights because they were fully booked. We were also told we could cancel the last night if we didn't want to stay. We wanted to check out the hotel first and said we'd get back to them. The odd thing was, we were the only guests. We ended up checking out a night early. We were told to cancel via Trip.com, and of course, a cancellation for the last night was not accepted. We also got the feeling they were glad to see us go. The supposed restaurant wasn't even open, so you have to go into the village. Incidentally, another reviewer was also fed the same story about the supposedly fully booked hotel. The breakfast was sufficient and the service was friendly.
This hotel offers great value for money. It's located in the heart of Boten city, with super spacious rooms, comfortable beds, large TVs, and a clean bathroom (the only downside is the broken toilet seat). It's a bit of a shame that I couldn't have a hot tea in the morning. Definitely worth staying here again.
I was so grateful that the owner picked me up and dropped me off, and it was safe.
The elevator was also convenient, and the view from the room was great. There's a fruit shop and restaurant just a three-minute walk away, and a convenience store within a five-minute walk. I couldn't have a drink alone, but it's a great place to have a drink with friends or colleagues. Chinese, Chinese currency, and WeChat are all accepted. Also, places run by Chinese people are more reliable and cheaper. If I ever go to Laos by land again, I'll definitely stay here. The building is old, but the facilities are fine. The water runs well.
Very good price quality, large clean rooms, pleasant litter, a local restaurant would have been appreciated because very few restaurants in Muang Sing.
Exterior staff are not a little undertaken.
Very Good

Very Good
FFred ConcklinCentrally located just across the Luang Namtha night market. Friendly, efficient and professional staff. Breakfast was included in the room price. Breakfast had 4 different options to choose from rather than having to repeat same thing over again. Fresh and tasty food. There’s a restaurant with a lot of options to choose from. From the most of the dishes we tried, we can recommend all of the options specifically Lao food and pad Thai.
Room was spacious, clean. Good air conditioning, ample hot water but the water pressure at the bathroom seriously need improved. Takes so long to have a simple shower. Comfy big bed with comfortable mattress. Nice comforter too. Loved the interior of the room. There was a feeling like we went back in time. Daily housekeeping. Free water bottles, free toothbrush and soap provided. We liked the outside sitting area with a table and 4 chairs.
We stayed at Zuela for 4 nights. We could get the tickets and help to go to Muang Xai from them too. They book bus, van tickets and tuk tuk service. Overall our stay was comfortable. We are happy we visited Luang Namtha and Zuela guesthouse. We recommend them dearly.

AAnonymous UserGreat location! There was a car waiting to pick us up right after we crossed the Boten border. The rooms are new, clean, and we stayed for two nights.

GGuest UserI am very happy to stay at Minghua International! The hotel has complete facilities and is very new. It is the most cost-effective hotel in Boten! The employees are enthusiastic and proactive, especially Manager Yao, who proactively solved the minor problems I raised with the guest room and was very professional! In addition, the hotel also provides high-end cars to pick up and drop off guests, which is full of sincerity!
SskybuttonThe hotel was very clean and the owners are very nice. For example, I had mistakenly left some belongings on a bus the previous day and wasn't able to speak very good Lao to explain at the bus station. After I messaged one of the owners of the hotel on WhatsApp, he went out of his way to drive me to the bus station the next morning, explain my situation to them, and help me successfully get my belongings back. Both owners were extremely kind and hospitable, and I would highly recommend this hotel.
MMliuliuThe owner personally picked us up from the station in an electric cart and even upgraded our room for free. It was really clean, and the bed smelled fresh! Felt very safe too.
