Hotels near Luang Prabang International Airport - LPQ, Luang Prabang

Great spot, indicated by so many travellers present. Lovely location, with quite a few options of things to do. Night markets are huge, with a big range of crafts and clothing items available. Numerous options for accommodation, and eating. A pleasant attitude to the high number of travellers, and smiling faces area very nice.

Luang Prabang was a hidden gem! The locals were all so welcoming and let us join in at their favorite restaurants and bars. Nothing beats sitting on the Mekong with a BeerLao or taking a cruise at sunset down the river. We could have spent so much more time here. Though there wasn't the street coffee we love in Thailand, the street smoothies were delicious!! We did do the waterfalls one day but wished we skipped - it was so manufactured. Sure it was busy but what bothered us was how built out everything was, really making edits to the natural beauty. Also, the bears there do not have much room and are surrounded by people all day which I found sad. But, Luang Prabang itself is amazing. Go, eat, drink, & hang with the locals. Such kind and welcoming people!

We visiting the KuangSi Waterfall and had more fun than expected. Climbed to the top, did the ziplines, enjoyed some drinks at the treehouse to cool off and then swam in the chilly waterfall pools for a really refreshing dip. Loved the drive through the countryside and ate lunch at the Bamboo Farm. Bamboo tea was delicious. Stopped by the Buffalo Dairy for some cheese and ice cream, but not sure if I would do that part again, since it was nothing unusual. Visited the Hmong Village and really enjoyed that interaction. Definitely make that stop to get an up close, personal look at the Hmong life. Next time, we will visit the Ou Caves and take the train to other cities, as well. Plan enough time to see Laos!

I was working remotely while in Luang Prabang so six days was good as my time to explore was limited. If I had unlimited free time, I’d say that 3-4 days would be sufficient. Luang Prabang feels unspoiled and charming, very laid-back. The night market sells touristy goods but it was fun and there is no hard sell taking place. There is a great choice of restaurants to cater for all tastes.

Luang Prabang surprised me, it's quiet slow pace, morning and night markets, great experience. Mekong River is majestic. If you like the Buddhist philosophy this is your destination. I booked 2 nights and stayed 6

The friendliest, coolest place on Earth. There are plenty of places to go, to visit, to do. More importantly, it is a great place to just BE! A visit to Luang Prabang for me would be incomplete without at least a couple of visits to Big Brother Mouse where tourists can meet and chat with locals - English speaking practice for them, cultural learning for visitors! Mandalao Elephant Sanctuary is a great place to visit. For bars, restauants: I recommend the Rainforest Bistro and Bar, Khaippen Training Restaurant, Alounvasath Bakery Restaurant, the barbecue restaurant oppositive Wat Visoun and the B82. Please, please, please DO NOT RIDE ELEPHANTS!
