Phonvichit Guesthouse

Cheap and basic, by the boat pier, not in town.

What we say: 2.5 stars

The setting is the primary reason for choosing this guest house. The Phonvichit is set right on the bank of the Mekong River, a small guesthouse and restaurant attached to a little garden overlooking the river. Rooms are basic, but quite clean, fan-cooled and with the choice of either a bathroom inside or shared. It's a 1.5km walk to town, so nearby choices for food are really only the guesthouse restaurant and the one next door. It's a good option if you're really interested in boats and want to watch all the action at the pier or a late sleeper who finds it hard to rise before the last minute to catch the boat. If you want some choice in food and drink then take the 1.5 km hike into town and look at other options.
