Lane Xiang Hotel: Old Russian style hotel Lane Xang Hotel Review

When we arrived from the airport by a Taxi (an old Toyota from the 50:ies - it made 0-40 km/h in 2 minutes!) we met very friendly staff saluting us everytime we entered the gate to the hotel.
The breakfast was very nice with everything You can ask for.

Unique Qualities: We rented the presidentsuit at Lane Xiang just for fun, it´s a bit solky and could for sure be a part in a old movie, the suit had 3 rooms - 1 master bedroom and 1 bedroom with 2 beds, and a livingroom with a huge refridgerator (2 m high!) the only thing in the refridg. was 2 bottles of water and 2 cans of Lao Beer!
Satelite TV, telephone, roomservice 24 h, swimmingpool.
The doublebed had seen better days, it was impossible for 2 persons to sleep in - it was something like a hammock. I had to sleep in the other room but we slept well and it was quiet.

Comparison: more expensive than average

Directions: Close to the Mekong river

Price: US$20-40
