"The first “five-star” hotel in the 1990s, Lao Plaza is a modern six-story building located in the heart of the city. Although not atmospheric, the hotel is efficient, clean, and offers good food."

Rough Guide
"Probably the cheapest place in town, with spartan rooms ranging from fan singles to triples with either attached bathrooms or shared facilities."
Lonely Planet
"This is one of Vientiane’s cheapest guesthouses. The rooms are clean, but very basic, and the atmosphere is very laid-back. It’s popular with backpackers, particularly Japanese." Full review
