Lonely Planet review

Set around the former villa of local hero Prince Regent Phetsarat, this 78-room resort features French-Indochina-inspired architecture spread over a large well-landscaped area with reflecting pools, lotus ponds and superb views of the Mekong.

The rooms are well-equipped to a four-star standard and include air-con, satellite TV and minibar. The furnishings are attractive but relatively spartan for such a grand place, and many of the rooms lack a bathtub, which means no relaxing soak at the end of long day. The grounds are stunning with tropical trees and plants in full bloom and the Mekong meandering its way past. The restaurant is set on the edge of the river and is a delightful place to enjoy breakfast or a romantic dinner. Since the hotel is about 4km (2.5mi) from town, a handy shuttle bus is provided to carry guests back and forth throughout the day.
