"Located just off Samsenthai Road next to the Lao Plaza Hotel, the City Inn is quiet, contemporary, and offers stylishly decorated rooms with nice balconies, although the views are not great."
Rough Guide
"The best of Vientiane’s mid-range options. Expect warm smiles, floors you can see your face in, and bath-tubs big enough to ease away those postjourney aches."

"Among the best hotels in Vientiane during the 1960s, Lane Xang took on a decidedly Stalinist feel after it was nationalized in 1975."
Rough Guide
"It has a charming retro appeal, and the rooms are large, clean and quirky, with impressive bedsteads."
Lonely Planet
"Built in the 1960s on the site of a prominent Lan Xang–era wat, this hotel facing the Mekong was once the classiest place in town. It...retains a certain socialist-era feel." Full review
