I stayed at Song Lao for a month. The guesthouse is hosted by an amazing family - Mai and Daniel speak good English and are extremely accommodating and flexible with whatever you need. There is a restaurant at the compound serving expresso coffee. The compound itself has a great community feel and there is a great common tea/ coffee area with filtered water. It's easy to meet other travelers there. Rooms, balconies, and bathrooms are extremely spacious. Perfect for people who like to stretch or do yoga in a private space. Showers are hot and have great water pressure. Area is very safe and away from city noise but still a short walk to the city center. High-speed Wifi is available throughout the compound and in all the rooms. Overall, amazing value for money and a wonderful place to spend a night or a few weeks.
Villa Thakhek is located within 0.3 mi from the city center. It offers modern air-conditioned rooms with free Wi-Fi. Guests can rent motorbikes to go explore the area.

The lady and reception is so helpful. I booked 1 night too many and she organised someone else to take the room and booked me a night bus at the last minute.
Thakhek Travel Lodge features a garden, shared lounge, a terrace and restaurant in Thakhek. This 2-star hostel offers room service, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi.
It's a great view of city and village life. You do the loop and that some what sums up your trip.
I did hit the Mountain you take a boat under and I took the "Back road" by mistake and ended up driving 58km though Laos villages
Seriously the best part of the trip.
I got to see a side of Laos 99% Of tourist never will so def. something worth seeing if you find that back road, its not hard to see if you do the loop backwards from what hotels advise you.
the caves are great, Dragon cave is a SERIOUS hike, the first few caves just east of the town are barely 5 minute visits and are used for praying not so. much tourism.

Just place for change of scenery from Thailand on visa run.
Just place for change of scenery from Thailand on visa run. Very easy border crossing and for visa on arrival to Laos not crowded on day we crossed. Good for stay and travel to other parts of Laos mountain area which had vrey much nicer weather. If you are motorcycle rider starting point for Thakek loop. Laos people were very friendly.

The town has a very laid back atmosphere and is friendly and reasonably priced. There is a very special and spiritually important temple if one has an affinity for that.

The karst mountains near the town are very beautiful.
The karst mountains near the town are very beautiful. Traffic on route to Vietnam can be a bit intimidating. The smaller dirt roads into the mountains are the best. Worthwhile wearing a face mask and dustproof goggles as the dust raised by pickup trucks can be suffocating and visibility reduced to practically zero especially with a big truck travelling at speed on a dusty dirt back road.

Thakhek is the old town, every architectures I saw it is full of history. You should walk around in the morning it is very nice weather. And if you like to outside for adventures. There are many caves around. You can rent the motorbike to go there it is not too far. Two sides of the road to adventure you will see local people living. They are so nice and friendly.

Nice near the river.
Nice near the river. Good start point for Thakhek loop by motorscooter, which we only went halfway and then returned back on the route for second part. 570km in 4D/3N trip, on mainly good roads. Stayed at Sabbadai guesthouse on 1st & 3rd night, and near Konglor Cave 2nd night. Get to Konglor area before dark, as quite a lot of potholes. Roads generally very good.
Loved everything! I stayed here for two nights, before and after the Thakek loop. Most folks will be in the same boat. It was super clean and comfortable — nice beds and everything. Binh and everyone on staff was super helpful with everything you need before the loop. Bike rental, directions, where to stop, where to stay. They have a Google Maps list with where to go, and they want to make sure you feel comfortable for your trip. He even gave me a ride in the morning. I would definitely stay there again!
The owner of this hostel, Mr Noy is extremely kind and helpful! We stopped in Thakhek on the way ti Vientiane and he helped us book our bus tickets (the bus was great). The pool is nice, and the facilities are basic! The showers are warm and there is a good number of bathrooms for all the guests! We stayed in the private room with no bathroom and it was good for 2 nights. The beds were comfy. The location is also excellent, right by the river and less than a minutes walk to the night market!
The hostel is small and simple but the spaces are very well thought out. Beds are clean, comfortable, and have night lights. There are amazing common spaces that's great for chilling. Bathroom is outdoors and very clean. To top it off, Nong was a very friendly host who helps you out and can answer your questions about the Thakhek loop. She works hard to make this a great place. I kept extending my stay here because I had an amazing experience.
May runs the show and she is a gem. Nothing she wouldn‘t do (as long as you pay for it). She has the Hondas for the loop, the extra store for the luggage, she takes you across the border into Thailand. And her english is way above average.
Super breakfast & dinner on the premises, free coffee & water, super compound to chill and chat. And it is right where the Thakek loop starts out!
It was clean clean clean and updated everywhere. The best bed and pillows I’ve had in Laos. I didn’t want to leave. Gorgeous decor and furnishings with attention to detail. The owner was a beautiful woman and spoke delightful English. Also the free breakfast was lovely ❤️
Location and staff so friendly. rooms with refrigerator, A/C and comfortable beds. The hotel looked like a three stars European standard. The toiletries were so good. The breakfast is included and you can choose several options. Free water at reception
The bus was so late getting into town, I didn't arrive until just after 11pm. I had messaged the property to update them and it was no problem at all. So friendly, the room is basic but clean and does the job for one night before starting the loop.
This place is central for everyone that wants to do the Thakhek Loop so you can just walk around to find a place to rent a motorbike. Everyone there is either going to or coming back from the loop making information sharing a breeze.
The Owner of the hostel was beyond helpful and nice. He made a day trip with us to a waterfall and he provides you with scooters for the thakhek loop. Also he provided us with snacks and organises bus rides to the next destination.
The host at La Casa is great at helping to set you up for doing the Thakhek loop, which is why we visited Thakhek. The dorm is spacious and the shower is nice. The hostel is located nearby many good and affordable restaurants.
Extremely comfortable bed with nice A/C and privacy curtains. The bathrooms were nice and clean as well. Comfortable lounge area and they'll store your big backpack for when you're gone on the loop for a small fee.
We got so much information about the Loop and everything in order to do the Loop was available. Would definitely recommend if you are doing the Loop, and also if you are just staying in Thakhek.
The guesthouse is well located in city-center of Thakhek. You will easily find motorbike rental around. The host is very professional and available to help you if necessary. The room was ok.
We got the deluxe room, with private bathroom. It was very spacious, there is a nice terrace as well.
Staff is very helpful and they rent motorbike for the loop at very competitive price!
Beautiful, nicely furnished small hotel with excellent central but still quiet location. A few min away from Mekong river. Our suite was very large and pleasant
Really cool hostel where you can rent the bike to do the loop
The owner Bin is very nice and helpful for anything you need even future trips in Vietnam ahah
