Nightmare experience
Best thing about this hotel was check in was quick Second was checking out In between was not good Room very dirty Used toilet roll reel behind open door obviously not close door to clean behind Windows not fully close Asked for bottle opener told not have But you can use the one on fridge in reception They display menu for food But when I ask in the evening was told it was afternoon menu only So I starved till next day I went for breakfast but was told I had to pay breakfast for me was not free although booking confirmation from you said free breakfast I felt ashamed and humiliated when told I have to pay in front of other guests As if I was a homeless person walked in off the street off the street it is very noisy here cockerels crowing at 5.15 am and staff hammering at 7.39am I would not recommend this hotel to anybody I now stay around the corner in Usouk hotel very modern flat screen tv and jacuzzi and breakfast included ( very nice)and only 1000 baht a night and very clean as apposed to 811 baht a night for a night mare of a experience at this hotel and no breakfast

Good little hotel with friendly staff
Enjoyed my 4-night stay here. Furniture and fixtures could use some updating but otherwise the property is clean and well-maintained. Simple but decent breakfast in the morning. The hotel is set back from the street making it fairly quiet.

free shuttle bus to the airport
I stayed at this hotel for 3 nights. the only thing good i can think of is the free shuttle service to the airport. the location is so far away from the river(around 30 mins walk). The condition of the room is not good, the air conditioner was broken on the second night which i had to request for changing to the other room in the middle of the night. The choice of the breakfast was limited and i would rather go out and try local food. considering the cost of living in Laos and what this hotel can offer, it does not worth to stay here.

Hidden Gem
Hidden off of the main road but great position for getting everywhere. Safe area, clean hotel, friendly staff, great for a couple of night's. Breakfast adequate but not a lot of choice for westerners as you have only one choice from the list but enough for me as small eater.

Short Stay hotel
The Lalco is a little far from the Centre and so you have to Walk 30 minutes to restaurants etc. The Local area is very quiet. However currently there is a large 40 story Construction site overlooking the hotel which is very noisy, starting at 8 am in the morning [ so no need for alarm clocks] The Rooms are large,clean and the TV has a number of English Channels. the bed is very hard. The Bathroom has a large Shower, but because it uses a dedicated water heater it is either scolding hot or freezing cold. despite asking this to be repairs or adjusted a number of times it remained a problem. The Staff are friendly and the Breakfast is good, if a little limited. There is ample parking at the hotel and taxis can be called from reception easily. Overall, it is a nice hotel, a little far from the centre, but great value for money but needs to sort out showers.

Large room, location and hospitality
The hotel is a bit old and more like a serviced apartment. But good thing is, unlike newer ones, room is quite large for the price. The location is closer to government office area than business district, but plenty of restaurants around. Hotel people have good hospitality and serve nice breakfast. If the hotel like to attract more Chinese tourist, the water flow of the shower should be stronger and hot water should be available anytime.

Great budget hotel
Great low-budget hotel within a somewhat long, but not too long walking distance from all the areas of interest in Vientiane. By the way do not rent a motorbike in the city, the cops are so corrupt and bribe greedy!

Enjoyable stay
Excellent American breakfast. Very helpful staff and they even speak fairly good English. The hotel has a fresh, clean look. It's located in a quiet, safe area and has its own parking lot. The tourist areas are within walking distance (1/2 - 1 mile), or you can take a taxi. I have tried other hotels in Vientiane within the same price range and Lalco AR is definitely the best so far. Will stay again.

Hidden Gem
I stayed here for one night. I stayed in a superior room. The hotel is clean. There is high quality tile throughout. The decor is Asian, but it has an almost Mediterranean feel. The room is big enough and probably larger than average. The bed was larger than a standard King. I don't know what size it was. The bed was a bit hard, which is normal for southeast Asia. TV included CNBC, which was nice. Many hotels don't have that channel. Plenty of english-speaking channels. Free WiFi and fast enough. There is a repeater on each floor. There is no lift. I was on the 3rd floor and I didn't consider it an issue. I think there are 6 floors. This may be something for you to consider. Breakfast was included with my stay. It was better than your average free hotel breakfast. It wasn't continental. I had eggs, bacon, sausage, bread, and coffee. Overall, a very nice hotel. A bit expensive compared to surrounding hotels, but it is very nice.

Vientiane solo getaway
The water pressure from the shower was weak. The fan to air out the room is fairly noisy. No safe deposit and telephone in the room. Feel like a upmarket guesthouse instead of a hotel. It is worth the value of the price, can't ask for 5 star accommodation when paying a value price.

Would stay here again
Great location, just off the main road. Walking distance to Morning Market. Staff were attentive and were very friendly. One member also gave good info about airport shuttle service. It's worth paying a few dollars more for a superior double room. Breakfast was Western or Noodle options (one of them is actually noodle soup), also fruit, fruit salad and yoghurt etc. Western Option was a plateful of Omelette, Bacon, sausage, with butter, jam and baguette. Although there is no lift the staff helped to carry luggage to room upstairs. WiFi was fast and stable. The rooms and the hotel was clean.
