Pukyo Bed and Breakfast Belgian Lao

Pukyo is a 5-room B&B run by David who is a very friendly and helpful host. We got a room on the ground floor which was excellent for my husband who does not walk well let alone climb stairs. It was a big family room with a king-sized double bed and 2 singles. There is an ensuite bathroom with a very good hot-water heater. The bathroom floor gets wet and slippery after the shower but there is an anti-slip mat and Daivd knows about the problem which he is going to fix this summer. The aircon is very powerful and there's also a wall fan as an option. There's also a small TV but we did not use it. The B&B is about 4 min from the airport and less than 10 from town. David will take you to town for dinner in his comfortable van and wait for you. He very kindly bought dinner back for us the 2nd night as my husband was too tired to go out. There's a fridge stocked with beers and drinks and a water dispenser in the living area. We had wonderful chats with David who is a great font of knowledge and felt like we were staying with a friend rather than a commercial lodging. There are mosquitoes in the evening but David sells lemongrass -scented repellent for 11,000LAK - very effective also for outdoor tours. David has a outdoor seating area at the back and it's a very peaceful and pleasant place for breakfast or a beer at sundown. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with David.

Best place in Phonsovan Awesome experience, the owners are amazing people and really go out of their way to take care of you. I showed up after having a motorbike crash earlier in the day and they really went out of their way to make sure that i was taken care of. Would highly recommend anyone staying here. The house is beautiful and the rooms are nice, everything was clean amd the breakfasts were amazing.

オーナーのデビットさん、奥様の素晴らしいガイドと共に最高のエンジョイライフ過ごせた‼️夕食はダウンタウンに送迎してもらってローカルフードを堪能しました♪ 可愛い娘さんも看板娘です。 空港までは散歩、歩きました。 朝霧の風景は神秘的。 PS、デビットさん、不在でチェックアウト失礼しました♪お元気で、😄ありがとう！

I came to Phonsavan to see the Plain of Jars but the other highlight turned out to be staying two nights at the Pukyo B&B with David. I had had some dialogue with David via email about availability as the various booking sites weren't clear on the situation and David suggested that while he was fully booked for the nights I wanted he could offer a room next door (owned by his wife and aunt). When I arrived it turned out he had had a cancellation so I got offered a room in the main house instead. As I had hired a van and driver to bring me from Luang Prabang and take me back there I had transport to get around the Plain of Jars but David took me out to find an excellent dinner on both nights. It's unlikely that I would have found either place on my own even if I was staying in the centre of town. The B&B itself is fairly basic but comfortable. David said he was considering adding airconditioning if it continues to get hotter in Phonsavan but it seemed fine at night. I was exhausted both by the trip there and a day touring the plains so after dinner I pretty much collapsed anyway.

David sait bien accueillir les voyage avec sourire et gentillesse. Chambre très correcte avec sanitaires privés un peu sommaires mais suffisant. Excellent petit déjeuner. David peut vous emmener en ville pour dîner. C'est une bonne adresse pour Phonsavan.

Situé à environ 4 km du centre ville, cet établissement est tenu par un couple belgo-laotien sympathique. Nous y sommes restés 2 nuits; nous étions les seuls clients. Une fois rendu (difficilement, car peu connu par les tuk tuk du centre-ville), difficile de s'échapper, les tuk tuk ne viennent que sur appel de l'établissement qui a "négocié" des prix d'un niveau inégalé au Laos. Tout ce qui y est proposé est à un prix très élevé pour la région: nous y avons diner le soir de notre arrivée, qualité moyenne et x2 prix d'un repas en ville. la bierlao est au prix que nous avons payé dans des hôtels de "standing". Nous avons également pris la visite des sites de la Plaine des Jarres proposée par la patronne. A éviter: plus cher que les circuits proposés en ville, commentaires extrêmement restreints et pas toujours exacts, on est plutôt avec un chauffeur qui se fait payer son repas de midi en sus du prix qui n'est finalement pas un forfait découverte journée (entrées sites à payer également en sus) La chambre était petite, la salle de bain encore plus petite (2 x 1.5 m² pour Wc et douche dont l'eau noie le papier toilette). Literie peu confortable. La chambre était pleine de poussière et notre couette était sale. Quand nous avons demandé de nettoyer la chambre et de changer la couette, cela a été fait avec un commentaire extraordinaire : "nous n'avons pas eu le temps de vérifier la chambre avant votre arrivée...."
