Villa Manoly

Colonial charms and a small pool

Photo of Villa Manoly, Phiawat Rd (road opposite Dan Chan Palace). , Vientiane

What we say:

Well away from the town centre, Manoly is a charming colonial villa set amid rambling green grounds. The spacious rooms have air-con, firm beds, modern bathrooms with shower or tub, and loads of character provided by local art and antiques. Rooms on the second floor have access to a terrace with rattan chairs, tables and a view of the lovely garden below. The family suite is two interconnected rooms, one with a double bed and the other with two singles, so can easily accommodate four people. The grounds are spacious but feel a bit messy and even boast a small, if not particularly clean, swimming pool. Given its quiet location the staff can help arrange transportation and rates include a continental breakfast.

Hidden oasis in Vientiane

We stayed 3 nights in Villa Manoly. We payed 25$ a room (after bargaining). Our rooms (one for us, one for our 3 kids together) were facing the pool, which was super. We even had our own terras in front of the rooms with a wooden table and rotan chairs. The pool was a delight, after a day of temples! It was very clean and well maintained at the time we were there. The garden was well kept too filled with many diffrent orchids. The breakfast however was a little poor, and hard to get.

Not worth the money

Overpriced for what you get. US$28 for a room with air conditioning. No fridge. Staff not very accommodating and the first room we were show had huge gaps around the door where bugs etc could come through. Think you can do better for your money.

Nice and Quiet

This is a nice and quiet place with a courtyard and a small pool. It might look a bit far on the map from the happening places in the centre of the town. It is really easy to walk to town following the road along the Mekong River. Price: US28 for double. Recommended.
