Last weekend I went to Vientiane so I could sample Dark Beer Laos and eat some decent food. It also gave Dougal the opportunity to ignore me.
On Wallace's recommendation, we booked a room at the Mali Lamphu (malinamp[at]laotel.com - Tel: + 856 21 215093). They even answer their emails, which was a pleasant surprise.
The front of the GH didn't look too promising.
But after walking through the shophouse you come out into a lovely courtyard.
We were up on the first floor. Nice.
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. As we were at the back of the hotel it was nice and quiet.
UBC on the telly.
The shower had heated water and was nice and powerful, but you'll have to make do with a picture of the wardrobe as GoW was having a shower when I was dicking around with the camera.
We paid around 550 Baht a night. Good value in my opinion.
