This is one of my favorite places I have ever stayed. Extremely accommodating, beautiful property, and fantastic food. Just far enough outside of the main part of town to enjoy the quiet and peaceful nature of the Mekong, but easily walkable to all of the tourist areas. They provided help with all of the tours for very reasonable prices and I even took a cooking class on site that was an amazing experience that included shopping at the morning market. If you can spring for the executive suite and enjoy your private jacuzzi room, well worth it!

Great stay in Luang Prabang
Victoria Xiengthong hotel was located in a perfect area. It was easily walkable to major sights such as temples, the night market, town. The staff are welcoming, kind and helpful. The bathroom was not updated, so it had a bit of a rustic fell. The room itself was large and clean though.

Great spot to spend a few days relaxing in Luang
Victoria Palace was a great spot for a stay in Luang. Right on the Mekong River. The staff was super sweet and friendly and helpful. They helped us book last minute boat trips, tuk tuk rides to the waterfall and airport transfers. Very well maintained and clean property! Highly recommended for a stay in Luang. Close to everything but not right on the main road either.

An old palace in Chiang Mai
This is a great place but because it is an old palace that has been rehabilitated into an hotel, don't be surprise if, when the kid in the room next to you cries and the parents are totally clueless, you end up wanting to go to their room and take care of the kid yourself.
Beside that, incredible location and very nice hotel.

Wonderful, just needs reliable wifi
Excellent, friendly staff. Great location. (Note that the River View rooms are not actually on the river, but they do have glimpses of the river) Wonderful breakfast in a lovely restaurant setting by the street. Rooms are very nice, good-sized. Our only complaint is there was no wifi in our rooms for our entire 5-day stay. We asked for that to be fixed several times, but it never was. We had to sit in the reception office to do a video call and to do our internet tasks. But if that is fixed, or if you don’t need wifi, this is a great place to stay.

It's a beautiful hotel in a beautiful location. There was a hiccup with the room initially -- not the hotel's fault. The website pictures didn't match with what we saw. This is because every room is different. They were very quick to help us, and everything worked out. It was a great stay, and the staff are truly engaged and helpful.
The location of the hotel is quiet, yet just a short walk to the main road, night market etc. Given that the building was previously a palace, it is very charming and unique. Highly recommend the Victoria Xiengthong for a special Luang Prabang experience.
