Hotel de la Paix Luang Prabang

Luang Prabang | Laos

Once a colonial governor’s house, and with watch-towers from its days as a prison, Hotel de la Paix Luang Prabang is a quirky yet beautifully tranquil place to stay. As the saffron-cloaked monks pass by each day, through a town with just a handful of wooden-clad stores, you’ll really feel like you've stepped back in time.

Activities at Hotel de la Paix Luang Prabang

Hotel de la Paix Luang Prabang is just a short walk from the town’s UNESCO heritage centre, or you can take a leisurely cycle on one of the hotel’s complimentary bikes. Sun-rise is the perfect time to begin your cultural experience, heading to the centre and watching the daily procession of 300 - 400 saffron-cloaked monks. You can also visit beautifully ornate temples, and the imposing Royal Palace where the last king was evicted in 1975. For nature lovers, a long-tail boat trip is a must: observing the swirling pool where the Mekong river and Nam Ou join, swimming beneath stunning turquoise waterfalls, and visiting the Pak Ou caves which are filled with Buddha statues.  

In the know

Near the Kuangsi waterfalls is the wonderful ‘Free the Bears’ sanctuary, home to sun-bears that have been rescued from traders.
