This century year old former governor’s mansion, protected by Unesco, has now been restored to its full grandeur and majesty.
Heritage and modern comfort
Set in a lush tropical garden, the highly exclusive Sofitel Luang Prabang offers 25 clay-roofed suites, ranging from 46 to 120 square metres, each with a private garden, oversized bathtub or plunge pool.
Shuttered windows, hand-carved poster bed frames and exquisite Lao artefacts create a sense of old-world nostalgia. Each room is furnished with the latest amenities such as flat-screen televisions, Wi-Fi and the signature plush Sofitel MyBedTM. The hotel also houses a gallery of Indochinese art and a magnificent library with one of Luang Prabang's largest book collections.
"What guests will find most captivating at Sofitel Luang Prabang is the fusion that occurs on so many levels," says General Manager Pablo Barruti. "Heritage is married with modern comfort. And the enduring tranquillity, both within the verdant gardens and just outside in the serene residential quarter, will appeal to guests in search of refuge in this age of sensory overload."
Serenity and relaxation
The beautiful SoSPA offers treatments blending ancient Lao healing techniques with local organic products and advanced skin care.
As part of the hotel's sustainable development initiatives, the spa offers 'Blind Massages' by disabled therapists, slightly more vigorous and intense than usual due to their heightened senses. Guests can also opt for yoga and pilates classes, take a dip in the 25-metre mosaic-tiled pool, or work out on the TechnoGym at the Fitness Centre.
International and local gourmet cuisine
The Governor's Grill proposes a delicious blend of fine western gastronomy and authentic Lao specialities. Guests can dine indoors or al fresco in a colonial-style tent overlooking the garden. The hotel Concierge can also arrange lunch at the award-winning 3 Nagas Restaurant at its recently renovated sister property in the city, 3 Nagas, MGallery by Sofitel.
