Hotels met parking in Luang Namtha, Laos

The guesthouse is located just across the street of the night market, but it's not noisy or anything. There are many options for breakfast, very good. They rent bicycles and motorcycles, which is very handy if you plan to discover the area on your own, and the staff is helpful in booking tours and busses.

Wow, it's been so long since I've seen such beautiful scenery! Every morning, I opened the large window in my room and stepped out onto the terrace to see gorgeous mountains, hear birds singing, and watch the busy logistics trucks moving below — it was truly moving. The room was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The ride service from the train station was great, and the room service staff were very kind. The only small downsides (2%): the restaurant street was about a 10-minute walk away, so I had to walk back and forth twice a day for lunch and dinner. Also, since my room was at the end of the hallway, the WiFi signal was weak near the bed — I had to go to the entrance door to watch videos on my phone. Similarly, the 4G signal was only strong when I stepped out onto the terrace. But these minor inconveniences were more than made up for by the stunning view, the quiet and clean room, and the comfortable bed. I've saved this hotel in my memory as a place I'd love to stay again. Thanks!

The hotel's service was simply impeccable. From check-in to check-out, the staff were consistently warm, friendly, and incredibly efficient. They were always quick to respond to guests' needs and went out of their way to accommodate any special requests. Whether it was offering travel advice or arranging transportation, they made sure guests felt truly cared for.

The owner was very friendly. It was nice to have a refrigerator and washing machine. Pretty girls cleaned the rooms daily. The girls also changed the towels and sheets. The room is small, but you can walk the whole thing. The location is also great. Overall, a satisfactory stay.

The hotel's location is superb, probably the best. It's very close to everything you need to go; there's a supermarket and a small Chinese restaurant downstairs, and across the street are the New District Management Committee, Boten No. 1, and some tin-roofed houses. The elevators don't have card access, so anyone can come and go as they please. The rooms are relatively new, but the hallways look a bit newer.

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! 😍😍

The rooms were good for the price, the only thing that angered me was that I told the service girl twice in the morning in Chinese ” no cleaning, very good”. She replied ” thanks, no cleaning ” in Chinese. When I returned in the evening, I found all my personal belongings were moved for cleaning. I do not like people touching my personal belongings after they have handled garbage and cleaned the toilet.

The 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.

The room was nice, bright and clean.  There was hot water pot for tea.  The location is in the center of town and everything is within minutes of walking.  The staff were hospitable and helpful.  The hotel also provides complimentary pick up and send off to and from the rail station.

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.
