Nice but a bit rustic
This French country inn-style hotel is more rustic than luxurious, but it is well-located (about a 15-minute walk to the center of town), has beautiful grounds and very friendly and helpful staff. It can be a bit hard to find the hotel – taxi drivers had no idea what to do because it is actually inside the walls of a wat. On one side, there is a narrow stone path from the road; on the other side, you come through Vat Meuna. Either way, a taxi can not drive right up to the door. There are several different buildings. Our room was on the second floor of the main building where the reception is located, but only accessible by an outside stairway. The suite was divided into 3 parts: a large outer sitting area, which had a refrigerator and sofa and was open-air (no heat or A/C and no glass over the windows); a lovely bathroom with separate shower and bathtub (glass on the window, but no heat or A/C); and up a few steps, a small bedroom with only a bed, nightstands, a wardrobe and safe. The bedroom could be fully sealed off from the other rooms, and had a wall unit that provided heat and air conditioning. Since it was very cold and rainy during our visit, it meant we had to go through the cold sitting area to get from our warm bedroom into a cool bathroom. There was no TV or radio, but we did have Internet service. I was surprised by how expensive everything was in Luang Prabang – hotels, food, taxis – but comparatively speaking, this seemed to be a reasonably good deal f

Out of fashion
Very old style Hotel. 한국식당인 김삿갓식당 바로 뒤에 있어서 매일 한국식당 이용에는 최고였지만 1936년도에 지어진 Heritage 로 지정된 건물이라서 분위기는 있었지만 발 디딜때 마다 바닥이 나무라서 많이 삐꺼덕 거려서 불편하고 신경이 많이 쓰임.같은 돈이라면 추천을 하고 싶지는 않아요

Charming, relaxed hotel
We stayed in villa maydou for three nights and really enjoyed it. The hotel itself is made up of beautiful buildings that feel sympathetic to their surroundings. The staff were friendly and attentive and we went on a couple of the activities that they offer which were both good fun. The pool and bar area were mine and chilled and although we weren't expecting to really use it, the swimming pool was great to cool off in towards the end of the day. As some other people mention, the hotel isn't in the main 'centre' of Luang Prabang but it was totally walkable and tuk tuks are super cheap if you're feeling lazy. My only minor grumble is that we could hear the people upstairs walking about a bit but I appreciate that this is down to the traditional nature of the buildings. It didn't really disturb us anyhow. Overall, we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return.

Location is not great. Far from night market , food outlets and river. Next to the temple , I was woke up by drum in the morning. No fence and as the hotel is open compound, security is a concern in the day. At night, there is a guard outside the reception. The web site said pick up from airport at 40,000 (approx US$4) per vihicle , but, it becomes US$10. Their explanation is different type of vehicles. I can accept it. But, web site is to be amended.

Paradise at a value price
Beautiful property and excellent service. Centrally located and a very good value. The only negative is that the Wifi is virtually nonexistent. If you need strong wifi for work or other things this is not the place for you. If you can handle being disconnected for a bit it is perfect. Beautiful, tranquil, and affordable

Unique hotel of restored buildings
Friendly and helpful staff. Pool lovely, but deep if you bring kids. Bicycles great. Room would benefit from a fan alongside the air-con. The nesting birds (in the eaves) woke us rather early, but were also part of the charm of the buildings. Breakfast good but I'd have loved a croisant with it!

Cool escape
During the hot summer this was a great place to cool off! The staff was very helpful and welcoming. When I arrived early they were more than happy to let me into the room. The location was a little bit further from the main town, but when I stayed in the main town I was woken up by the markets and hustle around 5:30am. This area was certainly not as loud!

Nice but Not Great
A bit of walk to the town's main street, the property of several restored free standing buildings looked great, and our spacious room with a balcony overlooking the pool was nicely designed. Beyond the facade, however, everything else was quite mediocre. If more attention were paid to the operational details, this property could be much better.

We loved the feel of this small run hotel. Not too far from town, the hotel would call a Tuk Tuk for you. Was great as free bike hire. The only thing is they don't have interconnecting rooms if you want 2 rooms for young kids.

Reservoir of quiet and peacefulness
Pleasant staff and very helpful woman manager who hails from France. Menu in the dining room was limited though adequate. Wifi in the room was erratic and often non-existent though available if one could tear oneself from the airconditioned room to sit in the office lobby. The heritage deluxe room was beautifully maintained and the pool was very clean.

Stylish charming hotel with pool - and temple!
Family holiday with teens. Everyone loved Luang Prabang and the friendly and charming Hotel Villa Maydou. Hotel is set in old temple grounds, and the temple at the front is still practising, so expect to hear some chanting and see novice monks do homework in the shade. Few minor quibbles: airport transfer failed both ways (pick up was forgotten about, and the hotel also ordered a way too small tuk-tuk for taking us (4 adults with suitcases) to the airport. Bar was constantly out of juices, for the week we were there, despite our suggestion they may stock up from a local shop, in order to sell cocktails. Otherwise we loved the hotel, and the delicious breakfast of fresh fruits, eggs (try Lao style omelette with veg) croissants and French baguette with local tamarind jam etc.
