This hotel exceeded all my expectations. I thought I was booking an ordinary 2-night stay, but that stay included: (1) a daily fresh-cooked breakfast you could order as much as you wanted; (2) a sunset cruise on the Mekong River; (3) a fully-stocked complimentary mini-bar that was replenished daily, as was the in-room fruit basket; and all kinds of other amenities in the room. My room had a balcony facing the river (with the only minus being the road under the balcony that had motorbikes buzzing through until around midnight). I believe I also had access to hotel bikes, but I never used them. My rate also included a food-and-beverage credit I used for dinner in the hotel restaurant, which had a good-sized menu of local specialties and western choices. The hotel is located fairly centrally within the town's historic center, a couple of blocks away from the busy main street.

Oh this place provides amazing customer service. Spacious and clean room. Delicious breakfast especially their Chicken Fried rice! Location was close to everything - the Mekong river, the famous temples, the alms ceremony and night market / shops.

I would also like to give a huge shout out to our check-in staff Ken, he went above and beyond to make our stay the most amazing one. He accommodated to split our bed for two people. He was our barista who made our Margarita drink, and our welcome lemongrass drink He served us food in the buffet breakfast. And lastly, he drove us back to the airport.

Overall, I would really recommend this hotel for everyone who wants to visit Luang Prabang. A+++

The Belle Rive is unequivocally the best hotel in one of the most charming towns you will ever visit. Every aspect of the Belle Rive is thoughtfully planned using high quality features, from the buildings to the linens and interior design as well as the numerous amenities. The entire resort, from the staff to the in room comforts, creates a welcoming oasis. This is hands down the best hotel experience of our entire month in Asia.

This boutique hotel is perfect for solo travellers and couples. It is located alongside the river thus affording an easy and relaxing view of the Mekong, if you dont mind the low murmur of passing boats. A few steps across the street from the hotel is the terrace restaurant, the hotel's extension where breakfast is served daily. I think this is the main draw. One can just relax here and take in the fresh air while enjoying a drink. It is a front row seat to witness the daily flow of life in the river. On the other side, the bank is covered in vegetation, deep greens and sprayed in spots with red flowers of the firetree. I could sit there whole day. The hotel arranges a complimentary sunset cruise for interested guests. During my stay, I had the whole cruise to myself as the rest backed out in the last minute. Gliding through the brownish waters of the Mekong with a drink in one hand, i took in the whole experience feeling like a million dollar! The staff were super attentive and feels like old friends. My room on the second floor waz clean and cozy. I just wished I stayed in a 1 level floor room as it is becoming a challenge going up and down the loft at night. Thank you Belle Rive...c'était merveilleux.....au revoir for now...will be back!

The rooms were comfortable, impeccably clean, and located in a meticulously preserved colonial French-era building, which made the stay unique and special. One of the highlights was the breathtaking view of the Mekong River, which added a special touch to the entire experience. The on-site restaurant was fantastic, offering delicious meals that left me looking forward to each dining opportunity. Breakfast was a real treat, featuring one of the best croissants I've ever had, freshly baked every morning at a nearby Swiss bakery. I can't recommend this hotel enough!

Charming hotel - wonderful location and amenities!

I had such a lovely stay at The Belle Rive and highly recommend it! I stayed in a balcony maisonette room and very much enjoyed my morning coffee or late afternoon Beerlao overlooking the Mekong and the quaint street below. The free breakfast on the hotel's terrace is very good, and the added convenience of having breakfast any time of day is great if you set off early in the morning for an excursion. Staff arranged my trip to Kuang Si Falls and the Laos Buffalo Dairy, and prices for a tuk tuk (I was traveling solo and was the only one in the vehicle) were reasonable. The attention to detail is what I liked the most about the hotel; free, restocked minibar (only recommendation is that they also stock it with some local beer!), free bikes, and a book of recommendations in the room make you feel like you are getting special attention. The location of the hotel is prime - very easy to get to restaurants, temples and shops but away from some of the noise of the main street where they have the night market. It's also right down the street from a center where you can meet with local students to help them practice their English. This was a wonderful first trip to Lao and I hope it will not be my last - and I will return to The Belle Rive on my next visit!

Not enough space for things to do nearby, so here are some favorite restaurants: Bouang, Cafe Toui, Bamboo Tree, Secret Pizza, Good People Good Food Good Price, Phu Vao Pho

Great location, service, staff and food!!!

Great Location:The hotel is located on the Mekong river side with a nice river view. Daily breakfast is served on the terrace by the river so it was lovely to start the morning with such pleasant view. Also it is so close to everything! L'Elephant restaurant - one of our favorite French restaurant in Luang Prabang - is just around the corner and a lovely spa Frangipani is just up the street. Plus, where alms giving takes place is only 2 minutes away from the hotel yet removed from the chaos of the main street. As it is right on the river, it was also convenient location to take the boat for Pak Ou cave tour as well as sunset cruise. The airport is less than 5km away from the hotel (15min by van/tuk tuk). The main street where alms giving takes place and night market opens on is only 5-10 minute walk from the hotel.
Great Service:The hotel arranges for not only airport transportation but tours around LP. We had a lovely trip via van to Kuangsi Waterfall and boat trip up Mekong River to Pak Ou Cave with a great guide Tuiy. Hotel also offers complimentary sunset cruise as well as bike rental. Minibar is complimentary as well making our stay stress-free and convenient.
Great staff: Hotel staff went above and beyond to make your stay pleasant. From arranging trips to keeping your place tidy and comfortable to packing your breakfast for those days you have early start, they are so helpful and friendly at all time.
Great food: Chicken Noodle Soup and Fried Noodles were amazing

Yes, our incredibly comfortable stay at Belle Rive Boutique Hotel was totally unexpected.

What can be more awesome than staying at an old colonial building (the one in the middle with blue shutters) yet had first rate amenities.We had a twin superior with classic four poster bed with nets. The hotel's Terrace Cafe/Restaurant, though across the street along the Mekong, added to its charm. At breakfast, the selection is huge. Try their fresh yogurt, it's to die for. The weather was fantastically cool, so a hot capuccino to start the day was perfect. And service was tops.

Decent hotel with good breakfast options

Stayed for 3 nights during the rainy season, so there were generally not many tourists in Luang Prabang.

I got upgraded so it was a nice gesture, and the room was comfortable. Walkable distance to the town center and the hotel provides a free breakfast menu to be used any time of the day.

Felt like staff didn't really have a good grasp of the English language, the manager could not answer my question on the breakfast option (had to figure it out myself), and I got no response when I emailed twice prior to my trip. Didn't feel like I got a \"warm\" welcome or service. Also, I had to call in to ask for an airport transfer (not like you need one because it's way cheaper to just get one easily when you arrive at a standard rate).

Didn't like the free sunset cruise that lasted one hour. The boat would go out for 15minutes upstream, and then float down river for 30minutes in gentle waters which gave me some motion sickness.

It was so wonderful staying. Friendly staffs, nice room and breakfast. We enjoyed the street and mekong river view so much. Also, they provide free sunset boat and bike rent. But our room was in the 1st floor and the terrace doesn't have a wall so we could see somebody stopped by over the night.. our shoes were stolen and someone left the half finished water on the table and the umbrella in the terrace. It could be much better if we got pre-warned about it.

Best place in Luang Prabang!

The Belle Rive Hotel is a fantastic place with unparalleled service! Located directly at the Mekong river, you can enjoy the delicious breakfast on the beautiful terrace with the stunning view over the Mekong and the entire valley.

My stay at Belle Rive was absolutely fantastic. Great rooms, great food, great views of the Mekong and fantastic service from staff. If you want to a place where you can let your hair down and relax, this is the hotel for you. Some of the Frangipani rooms have a bit of a mildew odour due to high humidity in Luang Prabang, but otherwise staying at Belle Rive was a wonderful experience.

Worth the price!

Very friendly staff and excellent service! We received a free upgrade, the whole minibar was free (non-alcoholic), the bikes were free, they arranged all of our tours and transportation, offered us a free sunset boat ride, and even helped us print out our visas for Cambodia. Breakfast by the river was the perfect start to each morning. There are cheaper options in LP, but we were so stress free for the three days that we stayed at this hotel, it was worth every cent!

日本では、これだけの幅がある川は河口近くしかないが山の渓谷の中にある河はない。

そんなオンザ・リバーテラス・レストランが朝食会場となっている。
バイキングではなく、全て注文方式。
レストランのスタッフはチョット恥ずかしがり屋で真面目さ故に真剣な顔になることも御愛嬌かな。

料理は特製クロワッサンとフルーツ、そして乳製品の素材は特に群を抜いていた。

更に、8時から12時まで何回も利用可能だということ。

例えば、朝起きて朝食をとって散歩しまた戻ってきてフルーツジュースを飲みに行ったり出来る。

メコン川を眺めることができるテラス付の部屋でした。ベッドは天蓋付きで、全体の設えもとても素敵です。
水回りも清潔で、使い勝手のよいものでしたが、シャワーの水圧はやや弱め。そこだけが唯一惜しかったですが、ホテル全体の素晴らしさを思うと、全く問題ではないと感じます。
ミニバーは無料、アルコールを含むドリンク付のサンセットクルーズも滞在中1回無料でした。
ホテルのアプリがあり、空港までのtuk-tukuを予約することができました。料金交渉も必要なく、安心して利用できて大変便利でした。(8ドル）
他のゲストの皆さんも落ち着いた方々で、静かでリラックスした滞在ができました。

もう一度訪れたい場所

1人で1泊しました。本当は2泊したかったのですが、予約が取れませんでした。
メコン川を見ながらいただく朝食はとてもおいしかったですし、贅沢な時間でした。また無料で提供されたサンセットクルーズも飲み物も1杯付いており、サンセットを眺めてビアラオを飲むゆったりとした時間が流れました。
部屋も広くて、清潔です。冷蔵庫の中はビールも含めてフリードリンクでした。
自転車も借りることができましたが、歩いて観光しても十分でした。
スタッフの方もみなさんフレンドリーでひとり旅でしたが、とても楽しく過ごすことができました。
本当にありがとうございました。また泊まりに行きたいです。

Magnifique

Très belle hôtel sur le bord du Mékong. Le restaurant en terrasse sur le Mékong où on prend aussi le petit déjeuné est magnifique. Tout le personnel est au petit soin et très très sympa. L’hôtel est bien placé dans la vieille ville, on peut tout faire à pied. Vraiment je recommande.

また泊まりたいです

4泊しました。メコン川を望む席からの朝食は毎朝楽しみでした。ベーカリーのパンもとても美味しく、サービスも素晴らしかったです。
部屋も毎日綺麗で、お水もフルーツもお菓子も毎日補充されました。ミニバーはフリードリンクです。
鍵を閉めずに部屋で寛いでいたら、河岸のレストランの客がトイレを借りに入ってきたのには驚きましたが。部屋の入り口が道路に面していたのでトイレの場所が分かりにくかったのかもしれません。
朝の托鉢やナイトマーケット、美味しいベーカリーカフェにも近いので、便利なロケーションでした。また利用したいと思います。
