Loved it
The hotel is set in gardens and pond. The room we had - upgraded - was spacious and clean with all amenities provided and was next to the swimming pool. The breakfast building is positioned next to the pond and extends over it. The staff there were friendly and helpful. Reception staff were all incredibly polite and assisted with suggestions for our walks around town. We really did enjoy our stay and would definitely come again.

Eco friendly hotel ideally situated in Luang Praba
Due to an admin error on my part we arrived a day earlier than expected, the staff were very helpful and managed to get us into our rooms without any fuss. The hotel is beautiful, centrally located and the staff are very helpful. We had massages in the spa on a couple of days and again the staff were excellent. I cannot recommend this hotel enough.

Sanctuary stay
Really enjoyed my stay at the Sanctuary hotel. Centrally located and easy walking distance to most of the quarter restaurants and downtown sites. The Viewpt is a little more of a walk. Room was smallish but liked the balcony which was nice for hanging out. Pool area was clean and enjoyable. Breakfast and staff response was outstanding. They fumigate your room in the evenings from what i can tell (ultimately your choice but you need to tell them if you dont want it)....never had a mosquito prob whatsoever but i could see how you could if you left your balcony doors open for an extra length of time. Price paid for having such beautiful grounds and pond area. Would most definitely stay here again!!

Well worth treating yourself. Great experience.
We originally only planned to stay for 3 nights but extended an additional 3 nights as were so relaxed and enjoyed our stay. The staff, although English not always up to scratch, can't do enough to help and followed up quickly when we had queries. We booked a tour and had a private car and driver from the hotel who looked after us at beautiful waterfalls, bear sanctuary and butterfly farm. We spent several sessions by the pool which is clean and luxurious sun loungers with service from the bar at the ring of a bell... literally! Breakfast, which was included, was a la carte and very tasty. We had a Laotian tasting platter and dinner one evening too, which were high quality but much more expensive than the great food you can get just round the corner in the main area of restaurants and bars. The hotel is a short walk from several temples including the national museum and royal palace. Make sure you walk to the top of Phousi Hill at sunset; breathtaking views. We would definitely stay again and have, in fact, booked at their sister hotel in Pak Beng as part of the 2 day boat tour to the Thai border the hotel helped us book.

Fabulous
The hotel was beautiful. The service was wonderful. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating when booking tours and buses and taxis. The breakfast was amazing. The restaurant staff were wonderful. The grounds of the hotel are classy and beautiful beautiful. The rooms themselves are very clean, large and comfortable. The hotel itself is about four blocks from the night market. Literally a five minute walk to everything. Right around the corner from Utopia. I would recommend this hotel. I would stay here again no questions asked.

Highly recommended base to explore Luang Prabang
Good location slightly out of the busy centre of Luang Prabang. Rooms at the back live up to the name "Sanctuary" surrounding the lotus pond. Recommend an upstairs room for less mosquitos. Rooms very spacious, comfortable, hot water with good water pressure, and firm mattresses with good quality linen. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Hotel & Grounds
Beautiful hotel/grounds. We loved the atmosphere. Very well maintained. Super peaceful/quiet. Great location. Great Breakfast - lots to eat! Made-to-order eggs. Only complaint is that the walls are thin - we heard the people next door having a "good time". The drapes are black-out, so we couldn't sleep in, but most people want to wake early, so not a problem. Wifi was good. Shower was great - quality pressure/temp. The room was clean, they had everything we needed.

Very friendly hotel with great service
Check in is prompt. We opted for the ground floor room due to both of us in the 80s but there were lots mosquitos as soon as we enter the room. The reception very efficiently changed our room to the next level which was very good. They even provided us with the spray. Room is spacious with view of the pond. Location is very convenient. Highly recommended.

We were picked up at the airport on time and warmly greeted at the hotel and even though we had a late night check in we were given a nice dinner. We requested two beds and had two single beds fairly comfortable. Wonderful staff!

Comfortable stay
Extremely comfortable stay for Christmas. Rooms were to a high standard and bed was very comfortable. Staff did more than enough to accommodate requests and were proactive in turning down the rooms, offering mosquito spray and even providing a little Xmas gift which was sweet and unexpected. Breakfast and restaurant are to a good quality and spa treatments are worth it. Overall really good stay.

An aptly named hotel in beautiful Luang Prabang.
Sanctuary is the perfect name for this hotel. It is close to the hustle and bustle of the night market but is quiet and resort like inside. Though the room was on the small side - as was the relative price for what you get - it was very comfy. Unfortunately, I came down with a bad cold and spent way too much time there. The staff was so accommodating and understanding, it actually felt quite homey. The outdoor breakfast buffet was nice with outstanding coffee. Though the selections are pretty limited, the restaurant has good food. All in all it really was a sanctuary.

Location is great, comfortable and accommodating
The location of the hotel is right in the heart of the city. Close walk to all the restaurants, bars, rivers and the night market. You can walk to around the city easily from the hotel. The rooms were clean and serviced regularly. Our requests were done punctually by the friendly staff. We were also allowed a late check out. The Buffet breakfast was nice and set in a relaxing environment.
