"With its white facade and balustrades and its riverside location, this French-style maison would be at home in southern France; instead, it's the trendiest boutique hotel in Luang Prabang." Full review

"The...Jaliya has a range of rooms including spartan, fan-cooled versions with shared bathroom, all the way up to those with cable TV and air-con. All are appealing and well priced."

"Tucked away behind a shophouse travel agency, the rooms are all very clean and comfortable, and face onto a lovely private garden. Good value."
