The hotel is in a prime location on the main street, close to the night markets and various dining options. The rooms, although situated in another building across the street, were clean and pleasant with lovely old wood furniture. The service was welcoming and efficient, with a nice touch of an amazing take-away breakfast for an early departure. The dining experience offered superb choices located conveniently in front of the Main Street area. The facilities were well-maintained and satisfactory overall.

I had a delightful stay at the hotel's annex across the street. The room was lovely with a seating area, but overall, the main rooms are tired and in need of renovation. The service was inviting and courteous, with the staff going above and beyond, even preparing a delicious take-away breakfast for our early flight. The location was perfect, allowing easy access to all the attractions and dining spots in the city. The dining experience, although a bit overpriced, offered a la carte options with very friendly staff. The facilities were adequate and the hotel itself was beautiful.

My stay at the hotel was simply amazing. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable, located just across the road from the main hotel building. The cleanliness and safety were top-notch, and the huge comfy bed felt like a dream. I particularly loved the antique drums that added a royal touch to the room.

The location couldn't be more perfect. The hotel is right in the center of the old town Luang Prabang, close to the evening market, daily monk ceremony, and many wonderful temples. There are also plenty of bars, restaurants, and local shops nearby. Just across the street, there are convenient shops like the small TAEC handicraft shop and bike rentals.

The Villa Santi Resort is well-located for exploring the old town and witnessing the alms in the morning. The rooms may need renovation as they looked tired and had a strong musty smell. The service was generally inviting and courteous, but there were instances of impoliteness. Dining options were limited and somewhat overpriced compared to other local offerings.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were very spacious and comfortable, located in a different building across the street, with unique antique drums reminiscent of the royal palace. The service was efficient and professional, though not outstanding, with the highlight being an amazing take away breakfast prepared for our early departure. However, language barriers and some inconvenience during the rain and monsoon season were noticeable. The location was superb, close to the evening market and daily monk ceremony, making it convenient to explore all the attractions and find good food easily.

The hotel rooms were old-fashioned yet lovely, with a fairly nasty smell at first but became unnoticeable after a few minutes. The location was across the street in a building separate from the main part of the hotel, though not far. The service was extremely conscientious, professional, and friendly, going above and beyond to have our food ready early on our final morning. The dining experience was very limited, but the staff at the egg station were the friendliest in the hotel.
