Boasting a terrace view all the city, Vang Vieng Freedom View Hostel offers accommodation in Vang Vieng, 100 metres from Post Office. The property is close to several noted attractions, around a 2-minute walk from Vang Vieng Hospital and around a 3-minute walk from Organic Mulberry Farm Cafe.

Super friendly staff and attentive reception, however this is not a 4-star hotel so I will not ask too much from you, the price is cheaper b elsewhere, the swimming pool at Freedom 2 and it only takes 2 minutes walk, I would personally want to stay here for the tranquillity. great free breakfast, delicious . the room is cleaned and changed into blankets, appreciates cleanliness. Small locker, however it will be necessary to replace it because that night someone punched the door of the cabinet probably because of drunkenness or anger ……

Such an amazing few days here. Beds were comfy, rooms were spotless, pool was really nice… and most importantly the staff were so amazing. Everyone working behind reception and bar as well as the reps; Rad, Rachel and Toni just made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. Would really recommend- there’s party if you want it but it is also a nice chilled hostel (compared to other mad monkeys)

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    The hostel owner lady was kind and helped a lot with the concierge. You can do scooter rental and many tours booking through her. It was the same and cheaper price than other rental shops but you can just leave your passport at the reception. So it's much safer. The breakfast was nice and the mountain view was amazing!.
