The hotel and staff were amazing. It’s basic accommodations but everything was perfect. Breakfast came with fresh fruit and delicious crusty bread.

Nice and clean

The staff were very friendly and attentive, and the guesthouse was in a quiet, beautiful location where you could look out and see the mountains and a water buffalo in a field below. It was a very short walk to the main street where one could find places to eat and ATMS. Mr Souk, our English speaking guide who works at the guesthouse, was amazing! He was very knowledgeable about the history of the area, the Plain of Jars, and we really appreciated getting to know him, and especially appreciated his willingness to share the personal experiences of his grandfather during the war in Laos in the 1960s to 1970s. We shared a jam packed 2 days with him, where we saw and experienced so many things. He also provided us pick up and drop off at the airport. Highly recommend seeking out Mr Souk! The breakfasts provided were massive and delicious. Please try the rice porridge. Very good and filling!

Friendly staff, good breakfast, great shower, comfy bed

The owner was amazing, responsive and helpful w recommendations & reservations. The rooms were spacious, comfortable and clean. Hot water was great after a dusty day on the local roads. Only complaint was the wifi little to no signal the whole ti.e we were there - but they did state they were working on it.

I liked the tour with Souk very much!

The staff were friendly and helpful and the room was basic but spotless. My upgraded room had unlimited hot water but a smaller water heater in the basic room was useless. The beds were on the hard side, pillows too large for my liking and I had to ask for TP every second day for 7 days. Finally, the property’s numerous dogs and at least one rooster provided a reliable alarm clock from around 2 am to sunrise.

Sipanya Guesthouse was a real find- the property was spotlessly clean, the room was comfortable and breakfast in the hotel was excellent. Our host Abe was absolutely wonderful. He picked us up at the bus station and made us feel very welcome. We also booked a full day tour of the Plain of Jars and other nearby sights with Abe - it was a great experience. He was knowledgeable, and gave a very full informative tour in English.

The owner ensures a very high standard for guests to stay. The bedsheets are clean. The outdoor areas are esthetic with nice environment. Nice place to stay if you are visiting the plain of jars. Free pickups. Highly recommended to stay if you are around Phonsavan,Laos.

The area is very quiet and nice. Staffs are very friendly and always there for us. They are able to communicate both in English and Laotian. I been there for 10 days and will love to go back to same hotel again. Keep up the good work.

Guesthouse Sipanya was almost like a family stay. They take care of every need in a personal way. Rooms were clean and complete. I highly recommend taking the very reasonable day tours offered by the Guesthouse. Mr. Souk us a warm and intelligent guide who spoke excellent English.

Good food , good staff

Good staff, good guide tour and they also have breakfast as well you can order what you want , I love breakfast here I extend my stay here more 1 night .

The young man who owns this guesthouse is friendly and speaks English well. I had a comfortable night and would not hesitate to cone again when in the area. Quiet location yet very handy for town

There is NO 24hr front desk service. I arrived at midnight and could not check in. Had to goto another hotel.

Expedia reservations beware, i booked/paid 2 rooms 3 nights, checked in and they said "error" had only one room open had to split up my party to another hotel, then went to check out early, opened up my room and they cleaned out the room and someone else stuff was in there, i went and complained and asked where my stuff was and why was someone else in room, the front desk person said i only booked 2 nights, i kept telling him NO i have 3 nights, luckily he returned my stuff and showed him my Expedia reservations. When you check in make sure u show the feont desk ppl prove

I booked this because of the “fabulous” comments. Is it fabulous? If you are not backpacking I guess it depends on what you normally stay at. This guest house is spotlessly clean and the bed is comfortable but the facilities are basic. It is near the market and the owner gives you a list of restaurants (we tried two and they were very good). He can also arrange a minivan to the plain of jars which includes lunch (again basic). Most people seem to stay only one or two nights passing through. The coach station is nearby, you can walk to it. For the price it is good and we would probably stay again.

The guesthouse is on the edge of the town, so quiet but a nice walk into tge main street. The local wet market is really close - its a walled market with two gates, so is actuslly a short-cut between the guesthouse and the town. Take a torch with you in the evening. Breakfast can be had at the market (noodles) or wander to Cranky Tea for a European breakfast.

Clean, simple, quiet guesthouse in a convenient location. The owner of this new property was very helpful. The beds are extremely firm and the showers use wall mounted electric water heaters so the flow of warm water is modest. Overall, for the price, we were quite satisfied.

Abay, the owner and his brother and staff were very helpful and friendly. Abay's communication was excellent. The location is quite central and there is only a walk of a few hundred metres to the main street.
