More than a hotel, The Luang Say Residence is an invitation to walk in the steps of the French explorers who played a fundamental role in the development of Luang Prabang; the ancient architecture, the precious wood furniture, the linen and the vintage gravures serve as a reminder of the early explorers at the end of the nineteenth century.
All 24 suites offer a wooden bed draped with cozy netting and elegant exotic furniture. The bar located in the main residence has a French bistro feel, while a marble fireplace warms up the space in the cold season. The hotel perfectly blends into the city and reflects the colonial dream.
