Hotels near Plain of Jars: Site 1, Phonsavan

Kong was such a nice host and he welcomed me with a smile and helped me with so many things! I was so sad about only having time to stay there for 1 night cause he was so comfortable to be around. I didnt go on his tour but i really wish I had! The bed was nice and the outdoor seating was really good aswell. Just a very chill man and very flexible. He welcoms everyone and helped me get a tuktuk to the busstation in the evening.

I wanted to visit the Plain of Jars in Laos, which led me to Phonsavan. Staying at The Hillside Residence was an absolute stroke of luck. I was contacted in advance regarding pickup, as I was arriving late by bus. They also brought me to the airport at the end of my stay. Every morning, breakfast was freshly prepared for me at the exact time I requested the day before. They even arranged my preferred tour directly from the hotel, providing lots of information as well as unexpected highlights I hadn’t known about. I was shown how jewelry and souvenirs are made from old war remnants — something I would never have discovered on my own. The hotel owners truly took care of everything. I have never felt so well looked after. The room was lovely, and I slept incredibly well. My stay in Phonsavan was perhaps the highlight of Laos for me, and the hotel owners played a huge part in that. I can give nothing but an unconditional recommendation. Thank you so much!

, really helpful staff very professional very friendly

I absolutely loved my stay here at NARIXAY hotel. The room was perfect , clean , big , great bed, great value for money etc.. I would also recommend Phet the host as a tour guide if you plan on visiting THE PLAIN OF JARS. I had a lovely day with him and his family visiting the various sites. He was very helpful booking onward travel arrangements also. I highly recommend staying here 10/10 for sure.
