Description
Opened late in 2006, SCK has taken a stunning riverside location and created something very ordinary. It is a two-storey concrete block of 16 rooms, each with the standard features of a Vang Vieng guesthouse. The rooms are still freshly painted, with comfortable sprung-mattresses, hot water and a balcony on those rooms facing the river. The only grounds are a 20m wide strip of bare earth between the guesthouse and the river, presently used as a car park. There are no restaurant facilities. SCK is only 200m from the new market, but a 40minute walk from the town.
Total rooms: 16

Across the river from Vang Vieng

Les Jardins de Vang Vieng
Moung Song Village
Newly built, Les Jardins de Vang Vieng so far has no real garden to speak of, but the location is right by the river and a bit of a walk from the centre of town, which shows promise. Run by the very organised Thavisouk Guesthouse, the wooden and bamboo bungalows are fan cooled, with a few pieces of... more

Riverside and island in the Nam Song River, Vang Vieng
Champa Lao is one of two guesthouses on the main party island in the middle of the Nam Song, which is predominantly made up of shanty dance venues and chill-out bars, happily pumping out tunes until whenever the curfew happens to be.

Upstream of almost all of Vang Vieng's riverine tourism, visitors can witness how... more
