We had a wonderful time at Hillside Lodge. It is in stunning countryside (note there is a slightly bumpy 20-30 minute drive from Luang Prabang but we found this to be an added part of the adventure) with a great pool to cool down in either after a days activity or to relax around all day.
The team are amazing and weren’t super helpful in arranging transfers and activities. Khan was an amazing host and the food on site was great as were the fruit juices - kids (and adults) loved it all.
It is a short walk (1km) to Nam Dong park where we did a Laotian cookery course, dream catcher weaving, and treetop adventures with zip lining - all highly recommended.
We loved our time here (and buddy the dog was a highlight - super chilled) and hope to be back soon.
A beautiful, secluded location which as you’d expect isn’t the easiest place to get to, but it’s worth it for the peace and quiet. The hotel offers a twice daily shuttle to/from town which at the time of our stay was $4pp per way. Staff very friendly, we enjoyed our time here. Must have a magician in the kitchen as the food was better than we’ve had in some 5 star hotels!
One of the best stays ever - what a peaceful, beautiful place - from location & mountain views to the quality of rooms to the staff and the outstanding food & beverages and services. The owners Holger & Aluna went out of their way to make us feel very welcome and engaged in the Laotian experience. We enjoyed fabulous back-country hikes through local villages and coming home to the lodge enjoying the sauna and pool followed by one of the best Asian menus including a wide variety of plant-based options we have ever seen. Highly recommending this family-operated lodge and cannot wait to go back one day. Holger helped with our onward journey on the Mekong River. 5 stars to this gem!
We couldn't recommend a stay at Hillside more! Do yourself a favor and add a few nights to your Luang Prabang trip and just stay at Hillside and enjoy the beautiful surroundings, wonderful staff and relaxing atmosphere. The manager, Maddie, made us feel at home instantly and we filled our days by lounging by the pool, reading in a hammock, taking a walk to the nearby park, getting a massage and eating all the delicious homemade food.
Everyone at Hillside, especially the host, are very friendly. They make you feel very welcome. The lodge is in a remote and beautifull scenic area with a very nice clean pool. We liked the hike through the village and ricefields and visited the botanical garden. If you like to go to the quiet countryside, Hillside is recommended! Go to Luang Prabang before or afterwards your stay because the road is very bad. Thank you Maddie for our wunderfull stay!

Nice location if you want nature and peace
Excellent manager who informed about Loas.
Noticed a lot of the accommodation bungalows were dated and needed an upgrade.
Such a lovely stay here, very peaceful with beautiful surroundings and a lovely pool. Luis and Noy are incredible hosts (and Buddy!) and the food was great too! Just a little hard to get to if you want to see some of what luand Prabang offers like the alms giving and night market but definitely recommend staying here for a few nights!
Very nice venue, extremely quiet and peaceful with a nice area by the pool with hammocks and sofas. Location can be either great, or not ideal, depending on what you're looking for. If you're looking for something quiet, surrounded by nature and far from the city centre, this is the place for you. Otherwise, the location is not convenient.
Rural setting up a dirt road not for everyone, but we enjoyed the change of pace completely. It's like taking a vacation from travelling. Lovely pool. A great place to relax and restore. Charming ensuite bungalow, with common wall to adjacent bungalow. Main building with small restaurant, cafe, bar, board games, library. Sustainable practices employed. Drinking water provided. Extensive menu offerings satisfied our needs nicely with both local and international recipes. Several options for taking hikes in the area. Staff very professional, courteous, and helpful. We would definitely book again if in the area.
Lovely stay. The location is remote, but has some great hiking. A bit cold in the winter months, with little opportunities to heat up. Bring some warm clothing. Additionally, not sure if it is typical, but seemed to be a lot of families with kids staying.

Very peaceful and relaxing setting, great food and attentive service. The bathroom of our bungalow could be improved for the price you pay.
We loved our stay at the Hillside-Nature Lifestyle Lodge. We stayed in Luang Prabang for three days, and then went out to the Nature Lodge (which is a short drive outside of the city). It was the perfect ending to our trip, as it felt secluded and quiet. It is right next to a lovely national park and several other hikes. The owners and staff are lovely, and the food was really really delicious. I would highly recommend the Nature Lodge to friends.
A beautiful choice if you want to get out of town for a night or two and enjoy the natural beauty surrounding Luang Prabang. This place is completely self-contained, and once you're up there you won't want to leave. Knowledgeable staff, good food, gorgeous grounds.
12 k outside Luang Prabang up a few dusty hill roads nesteled in a green slope lies Hillside Nature Resort. And what a gem this is. Cosy cabins and a very nice restaurant with great local food and more. Add to that a laidback and relaxed atmosphere and you have the perfect settings for some days in a quiet hill retreat.
Holger and his wife runs this place with the help of polite and friendly local staffers from the nearby village. Mr Khan is really great!
So we had a wonderful time here. Will be back! Thank you Holger and all of you.
Greetings, AM and Bo
Un site plein de charme et une hôtesse chaleureuse, efficace, disponible et toujours de bon conseil car elle connaît bien la région.
Des bungalows de style local, aménagés avec goût et confortables. Superbe terrasse surplombant la vallée. Piscine, jeux, livres et randonnées pour les promeneurs
Excellents petits déjeuners et excellente cuisine préparée avec les produits du voisinage
L’endroit un peu à l'écart de Louang Prabang invite au farniente et à la sérénité
Nous y avons séjourné deux jours avec des adolescents et pensons y retourner
