Previously a residence of Prince Soupha-Nouvong, Satri House is a unique and historic place to stay when visiting Luang Prabang; an oasis of royal grandeur in the heart of the city.
Whilst it doesn’t boast all the ‘bells and whistles’ of some of the city’s other premium hotels, the Satri House (meaning ‘House of women’) brings a touch of class seldom found in newer developments. Unquestionably, this is a serious contender for Luang Prabang’s boutique hotel crown.
Colonial-style houses surround two swimming pools and, following this theme, the bedrooms are furnished with 4-posters and charming retro touches. Thoughtfully positioned, high-quality local handicrafts instantly take you back to a bygone era – before the invention of television (although these are available upon request). There are a plethora of treatments available in the serene spa, and an open air restaurant and poolside terrace that make ideal spots for lunch or a welcome evening G&T. All-in-all, it’s rather splendid.

Why we love it
“Top marks! Satri House delivers on many levels.”
Fit for a prince
It’s not often you get to stay where royalty once did. When most people think of a residence for a prince, they might picture a towering castle on a hilltop or a grand palace with gold trim gates, but Satri House is different. The grandeur comes from the attention to detail in the décor, it’s charming character, and its homely demeanour. This is the complete regal experience wrapped in warm and friendly hospitality.
What can you do there?
Hop aboard the hotel’s own boat and enjoy a lazy afternoon floating down the Mekong, gazing at the rosy sky as the sun sets, or hire a private charter. Grab a complimentary bicycle and glide through the old town and neighbouring markets, filling your senses with the vibrant colours that occupy street vendor stands, listening to music as it flows through the air, and breathing in the cocktail of aromas inviting you to have a taste. Book yourself a spa treatment (or two!) and relax after a day of cycling, take a plunge into the bubbly jacuzzi, and enjoy a cold drink on the balcony overlooking your quaint surroundings.
