Sang Aroun Hotel
A friendly mid-range option

What we say: 
The centrally-located and sparkling Sang Aroun is a relative newcomer to Pakse, offering clean and very pleasant rooms, all with air-con, hot water, fridge, cable TV and some good views. The rooms are all a bit on the small side, and the prices have been creeping up in recent years, but it's still a good value. The gleaming white foyer may not be to everyone's taste, but the helpful, friendly staff are an added bonus. Recommended.

Clean quiet option
We stayed in a standard double room. Room was $20 (breakfast $3 extra - TERRIBLE buffet with cold food and not recommended). The room was clean and quiet with a/c and hot water. We left our bags here for 4 days and did not have any problems. Room is equipped with a fridge and sat TV and rooms close to ground floor have WIFI. The front desk staff do not speak much english but are friendly - just have patience. Overall, I'd recommend this place and it is a good value option in Pakse.

nice and clean, but annoying housekeeping
Sang Aroun seems to be THE hotel for thai tour groups to stay over night, so staff is friendly in the ''thai-way'', which means they greet you with the wai and are very very helpful. We stayed there for a few nights and paid 20$ for a double room. The room was quite big and clean. We also left our bags at the hotel for 3 days and everything was still there when we came back. The only negative thing at Sang Aroun is that the housekeeping starts to work at 6.45 a.m. And you can be pretty sure that you will hear it. They start their working day with slamming doors and knocking at your door... If you have a good sleep, you will have a good time at Sang Aroun.

Bags stolen by Hotel
Seems like my review have been deleted. So here it is again. When staying at this hotel I left my bags in the care of the hotel staff/management. After coming back from a 5 day trip I discovered my bags were stolen while in the care / lock and key of the hotel.. After many promises and stories that they were tracking the person down that took them earlier that morning.. Nothing happened.. When back in Bangkok.. The hotel did not take my calls.. finally after tricking them in to getting the Manager on the phone I managed to get a promise of a few thousand baht compensatio.. Even though 1000 USD worth of gear was stolen.. Then nothing. again and again no reply from the management to my emails. My advice.. DON'T STAY HERE. If you do, don't leave any valuables with the hotel staff.. They wont be there when you return.

Bags stolen
I would never stay at this hotel again. I left my bags with my company Satellite phone, walkie talkie, Akubra hat and first aid kit in the care of the hotel. (Value over 1,000 USD). After returning 3 days later, I found out my bags had been given to the wrong guest -- so it was claimed. Then I was promised the staff had gone to track the person down on the bus in Vientiane and would be returned to me before I went back to Thailand the next day. I left back for Bangkok and kept calling the hotel. They never replied to emails. Then I called numerous times. I was told the maximum compensation I would get is 2000 baht (60 USD). I never saw the compensation. Don't take the chance -- stay at another hotel. If you do stay here, don't leave any valuables with the hotel and be sure that you don't leave anything in your room of value.

Clean
The price is now US$24 for standard double. Rooms are clean and it was nice to have a bathtub! Difficult checking in as front desk staff had limited English skills. I stayed one night then moved to a cheaper place.

Good option
Standard rooms are now US$16 or 550B. Very clean, excellent service, bathrooms are a little small but rooms are quite large. Would recommend.
