Hotel Dengan parking di Luang Namtha, Laos

Staying at Zuela was ideal before doing a 3 days trek nearby. It was clean, spacious, convenient, good breakfast and the front desk staff was helpful. Was surprised to see all the negative reviews before booking and almost didn’t book as a result, but there is really nothing to worry about. If you are here most likely you are going to explore nature and stay in much more rural conditions, so better adjust your expectations or choose somewhere else to explore if you expect a 5 star luxury resort. Zuela also offers laundry service (and other services like transportation) if you need it. If you do like to have shampoo and conditioner then bring a small bottle but there is basic soap to use. Would definitely stay again if back in Luang Namtha.

The hotel itself is quite good. The rooms are clean and tidy, and overall it is a comfortable place to stay. However, Boten is not really a destination that most people would travel to specifically for tourism, unless you are just passing through or have a particular reason to visit. The town is heavily influenced by Chinese culture and business activities, which may not appeal to every traveler. During my stay, I even saw a hotel guest spit on the lobby floor, which left a negative impression on me and, to some extent, reflected my overall perception of the local environment. That said, the hotel does have one major advantage that deserves praise. Since Boten is a very small town, I am not even sure whether there is a reliable taxi or ride-hailing service available, so transportation can be inconvenient for visitors. The hotel provides complimentary shuttle service to and from the train station, which is especially useful for travelers using the China–Laos Railway and saves a lot of hassle. Overall, if you simply need a comfortable and reliable hotel for an overnight stay or a short stop in Boten, this property is probably one of the better options available in the area.

Overall, my stay was quite pleasant. The room was very clean and the bedding was fresh and tidy. The front desk staff handled my check-in efficiently and were very friendly. My only real complaint is that the soundproofing in the room isn't great; I could easily hear noise from the hallway, which affected my sleep a bit at night. Also, the bathroom facilities could use an upgrade. If these issues, especially the soundproofing and bathroom, were improved, I'd definitely consider staying here again.

The owner was very friendly. It was nice to have a refrigerator and washing machine. Pretty girls cleaned the rooms daily. The girls also changed the towels and sheets. The room is small, but you can walk the whole thing. The location is also great. Overall, a satisfactory stay.

Stayed for a night on a business trip, the location is not mentioned, because it is too small, there is no city center or city center, downstairs is full of food and play, including the kind you want to play, there is a big supermarket next door, I saw a few bad reviews before, maybe the peers are spoofing, The Lao waiter in the room was very serious. I also tipped. She was not surprised. The front desk service was also very good. The driver was a bit dry and dry. He asked him not to sit at the front desk in the future. In short, a sentence is worth recommending, rest assured to stay!

one of the closest hotels to the border for those entering China, making it a very convenient stop, especially for travelers and bikers. Its strategic location is perfect if you plan to cross the border early or just need a quick rest before continuing your journey. The hotel is also suitable for motorcycle riders, with easy access and practical facilities nearby. There is a halal restaurant located close to the hotel, which is helpful for Muslim travelers, although options are quite limited. In addition, there is a laundry shop nearby, making it convenient for long-distance riders or those on extended trips. Overall, Bodhi Hotel is a good and practical choice for a short stay near the border.

Hotel offers airport/train pickup. But my request to pickup via Trip.com was overlooked. However, the staff services were great and helpful. They offered drop off at the Laos border customs on checkout and call forward to my next destination hotel. There is a serious issue that the management needs to look into. My room had strong cigarette smell and when I asked for nonsmoking room, I was told there is non available! I had a serious headache caused by the cigarette smoke smell despite I opened the window through out the night!

The hotel was very clean and the owners are very nice. For example, I had mistakenly left some belongings on a bus the previous day and wasn't able to speak very good Lao to explain at the bus station. After I messaged one of the owners of the hotel on WhatsApp, he went out of his way to drive me to the bus station the next morning, explain my situation to them, and help me successfully get my belongings back. Both owners were extremely kind and hospitable, and I would highly recommend this hotel.

The owner personally picked us up from the station in an electric cart and even upgraded our room for free. It was really clean, and the bed smelled fresh! Felt very safe too.

Let's start with the positives: the room was clean and tidy, but also completely overpriced. We had booked 3 nights through Trip.com and were told we'd have to switch rooms after two nights because they were fully booked. We were also told we could cancel the last night if we didn't want to stay. We wanted to check out the hotel first and said we'd get back to them. The odd thing was, we were the only guests. We ended up checking out a night early. We were told to cancel via Trip.com, and of course, a cancellation for the last night was not accepted. We also got the feeling they were glad to see us go. The supposed restaurant wasn't even open, so you have to go into the village. Incidentally, another reviewer was also fed the same story about the supposedly fully booked hotel. The breakfast was sufficient and the service was friendly.
