The Luang Say Residence

At the heart of a tropical garden planted with lotus, a vast host house surrounded by large verandas and around it, five white pavilions covered by red tiles. More than a hotel, the residence is an invitation to walk in the steps of the French explorers who played a fundamental role in the development of Luang Prabang; the ancient architecture, the precious wood furniture, the linen and the vintage gravures serve as a reminder of the early explorers at the end of the nineteen's century. All the 24 suites offer a wooden bed draped with cozy netting and elegant exotic furniture. A lounge corner equipped with a divan and writing bureau. The ceilings are made from wooden beam and willow. The bar located on the main residence has a French bistro feel, with a marble fireplace warms up the space in the cold season. The restaurant offers an inventive cuisine of occidental and oriental flavours. There is also a large infinity pool surrounding with garden for relaxing. The hotel perfectly blends into the city and reflects the colonial dream.

Each suite offers twin (twin beds set up in the Pioneer suites are made of two queen size mattresses side by side placed in the same box spring) or king-size beds draped with cosy netting. Wooden trim adds a soft, elegant touch to the rooms and each suite features ample living space that includes a lounge area equipped with a writing desk and divan. Contemporary comforts include individually regulated air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with satellite/cable channels, hi-fi, Internet access, a minibar and an in-room safe. The en suite bathrooms are fitted with a shower, bath and a hairdryer. The suite are also equipped with a bathrobe and slippers, a direct dial telephone, tea and coffee making facilities and a balcony or terrace.

The hotel offers seasonal menus blending authentic Laotian, South East Asian and French brasserie specialties.

A vast, inviting slate pool offers a refreshing retreat. Replicas of rattan umbrellas, once used by explorers ridding elephants through the Laotian hills, were designed by Francois Greek, and offer shade over sun beds.
