Resort The Namkhan, a Small Luxury Hotel of the World (formerly The Namkhan) 

05 Apr 2025

The Namkham Hotel is a super quiet and relaxing oasis along a river with a nice view and beautifully decorated houses. It is quite big but it still seems very relaxing because there are many hidden spots like little yoga retreats and little pools, play areas for kids, a beach, fire place, gym, organic gardens etc. But everything is open and seems to flow with nature. I must say it has a spiritual sense. The breakfast and restaurant itself has a very good quality and the staff members are extremely friendly and try to do whatever they can to make the guests happy. We must thank the Hotel Manager Carl. He is always available to give recommendations and help with tours. The hotel offers a shuttle bus into the city which is very helpful because it's a bit far from the city centre. We enjoyed our stay a lot and would definitely recommend it.

Well managed resort, where employees at the reception, pool or restaurant seem to know you by name. Not sure how they do this, because we don't carry badges or post our photo somewhere. Very spacious accommodation with view on river and romantic and comfortable sleeping in tent with airco. Cosy warm LED lighting at night. Quiet at nights with only sounds of animals and no music, bars or traffic. Facilities are clean and of good quality. Free access to sauna and free use of mountain bikes. Very good breakfast and dinner with high quality organic food in restaurant with view on the river and very friendly and welcoming staff. Free shuttle to the center of Luang Prabang. We discovered this place by coincidence on a bike tour while staying at an other hotel and extended our stay in Luang Prabang to stay here. In hindsight, we would have preferred to stay here more nights if we had discovered it earlier.

AMAZING is probably the best word that can describe our 3 nights stay at “THE NAMKHAN” eco-resort retreat, situated on the banks of the Namkhan River. From we arrived, the personal touch, and care was felt, and the staff did their best in order to make us feel special, and welcome at all times - often greeted by our names in restaurant and bar, which make us feel even more wanted and special as guests Had the most amazing food served in their cozy restaurant, overlooking the river, breakfast buffet, lunch and dinner was so tasty, and well cooked, with lots of flavors, fresh herbs and vegetables from their own organic farm, were you can even join, and cook your own meal after picking your vegetables on site, next to the restaurant - lots to choose from on the menu, and we especially loved the Lao local food and taste, from the menu card - you must also try one of the wonderful drinks, when happy hour in Bar & Restaurant - served with crispy cashew nuts and local roasted peanuts - always a good start Lots of activities, yoga, spa, pool, games, “beach” and sports and gym - but in a relaxed and cozy vibe - no stress, just relax and feel good - loved pool area and facilities in that area with towels and cozy bar, free cooled water served at your sun bed - what’s not to like 15 minutes drive from hotel, you find Luang Prabang city, where you should go for a boat ride on the mighty Mekong River, reception can arrange a tour for you, or just use the APP linked to reception for booking your activities 6 times a day - free shuttle to/from city center You will find a small shop in the reception, with local products made by selected local women and projects - we loved the engagement in supporting the local community - and we will cherish our new breadbaskets We can truly understand why THE NAMKHAN is a proud member of “Small Luxury Hotels of the World” - Rooms well equipped and nicely designed and decorated for maximum comfort and wellbeing Thank you Carl, and...

Amazing out of town resort hotel. Perfectly equipped for a relaxing stay but still accessible to Luang Prabang with a free shuttle

A great range of food for breakfast and loved overlooking the Khan River. The staff were so polite and friendly - not pushy at all.

My explorer tent was comfortable, cosy, well kitted out with everything I needed and the bathroom wax lovely. Lovely restaurant with great dinner options and a delicious breakfast, and loved the pool area and bar. Beach area also nice to chill out! Lots of activities on offer including a shuttle to town, but I just enjoyed the peace and spent all my time in the hotel grounds. Highlight though was the staff - everyone was so welcoming and friendly, they all knew my name and tent by the first morning and I felt like a member of the Namkhan family! Carl and his team do an amazing job of running this wonderful retreat.

Our stay at The Nam Khan Resort was absolutely amazing from the moment we checked in until the end of our visit. We spent three wonderful nights there, and everything exceeded our expectations. The room had an incredible view, was spotlessly clean, and we adored the refreshing lemongrass scent throughout. The soothing sound of the river flowing nearby made it a true retreat for us. We enjoyed a massage by the pool since the spa and wellness centre was under renovation, but it was still a relaxing and delightful experience. The in-room dining was excellent, and the staff was extraordinarily friendly, helpful, and attentive—truly some of the best hospitality we've encountered! We were so impressed with their organic vegetable garden and the way they grow fresh produce to serve their guests. As someone who also makes and runs a soap and skincare business in Australia, I was thrilled to see they create their own natural shampoo and shower gel. It made me so proud of Laos and The Nam Khan Resort for this sustainable and thoughtful touch. There were plenty of activities to enjoy at the resort, and we hardly felt the need to leave. Although the weather was a bit cool for swimming, and the sauna was still under renovation, we had such a great time relaxing and exploring the premises. Overall, we are incredibly grateful to the Nam Khan team for taking such wonderful care of us and making our stay unforgettable. We will definitely return the next time we're in Laos!
