The room was cozy and had a nice homey feel to it. It made me feel like I was staying at a friend's place rather than a hotel. I loved the air conditioning, it kept me cool during the hot days.
The shared bathroom was a bit inconvenient for me. But hey, some people might not mind it and actually enjoy the chance to meet other travelers.

I recently stayed at City Backpackers in Luang Prabang for one night. The manager was exceptional, very dedicated, friendly, and funny. The breakfast was the best in Laos, with fresh options and free coffee and tea available all day. The bathrooms and rooms were clean, and the staff was nice and always smiling. The location was excellent, just a short walk from the night market and restaurants.
Can recommend this hotel.

I had an amazing stay at this hostel! the staff at City Backpackers Center were super accommodating and upgraded us to a 4-person room without any extra charge. We originally planned to stay for one night, but loved it so much that we ended up staying for 5 nights. the location is perfect, right next to the Royal Palace and night market. the rooms were clean and tidy, with daily cleaning service and fresh towels provided. Plus, the breakfast was included and offered a good variety of choices. It was definitely a great value for the price!
Nothing, all was perfect! 😊.

The location of the hostel is great, with the amazing night market, Grand Palace, and Mt Phusi all nearby. it's just a short walk to the main temples and the area with the lovely old French buildings.
I found the staff to be a bit unfriendly at times.

Stayed at a great hostel in a perfect location near the night market and Grand Palace. It was housed in a lovely old building with a nice rustic charm. the breakfast options were good, with a variety of eggs or noodle soup to choose from. the hostel was also new and modern, with hardwood floors and a cozy sitting area outside. the WiFi worked well and it was a short walk to all the main temples and the area with the old French buildings. a fantastic stay at City Backpackers Center. cons: Can't fault anything about it! 😊.

I recently stayed at a backpackers center in a popular Southeast Asian city and had a great experience. The location was perfect, with the night market, tour operators, and beautiful temples all within easy walking distance. The breakfast options were plentiful and delicious, with a wide variety to choose from. I especially appreciated the free coffee and tea available throughout the day, as long as they refilled the hot water. The sitting area outside was a nice place to relax and the Wi-Fi worked well. The manager was exceptional; he was dedicated, friendly, and made sure every guest felt taken care of. The rooms and bathrooms were clean, and the rest of the staff was always helpful and had a smile on their faces. I would highly recommend this place for its great location, delicious breakfast, and friendly atmosphere.

Comfortable and well-maintained rooms. The staff is proficient in English and provides good assistance. Location is perfect for exploring the city's top attractions. Free WiFi throughout the property.
Hard mattress, felt like sleeping on a wooden floor.

The hot showers were mind-blowing, and the breakfast choices were super, although the banana pancake was a bit too salty. The central location, once found, was amazing, and the staff, while polite.
