Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Phoukanna, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor (above 3rd floor) to minimize potential street noise, although Thakhek is generally a quiet town. The hotel's 3-star rating suggests a decent standard, and it's unlikely to have overly creaky floors, so a mid-to-high floor should provide a relatively smooth stay.
Rooms to avoid
If you're a light sleeper, avoid rooms near the service entrance, as this area may receive more foot traffic, although the hotel is in a relatively quiet location. Street noise is unlikely to be an issue, but the sound of staff and delivery activity near the service entrance might disturb some guests.
Best views
Unfortunately, the address doesn't provide any clues about the hotel's orientation, so it's difficult to recommend a room with a specific view. You may want to ask the staff about the views from different rooms when you check-in.

3rd floor and above
🔊 Noise notes
Street noise is unlikely to be a significant issue in Thakhek, but you might hear some activity from the service entrance if you're in a room nearby. The absence of a lift (elevator) means you'll need to use the stairs, which may be a consideration for those with mobility issues.
Insider tips
1. If you plan to rent a motorbike, consider asking the hotel staff about parking options, as they may be able to direct you to a secure area. 2. Check-in can be a bit informal, so it's a good idea to ask about any specific amenities or services you'd like to take advantage of, such as towel service or laundry facilities.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

💡 Thakhek has no trams or metro. For short trips, consider renting a bicycle (10,000-15,000 LAK/day) from a shop near the river – the town is compact and flat.
Nakhon Phanom Airport (KOP), Thailand → Mouthong Guesthouse, Thakhek
💡 Book through the guesthouse for a fixed rate and to ensure the driver knows the unpaved road near the Mekong. Cross the border at Thakhek Friendship Bridge; the driver handles immigration paperwork.
Thakhek Central Market (Talat Lao) → Mouthong Guesthouse
💡 Negotiate the fare before getting in – drivers start at 50,000 LAK. If you're coming from the bus station, walk 200m south to the main road to avoid inflated 'station taxis'. Most tuk-tuks are three-wheeled converted motorcycles.

💡 Flag down the bus on Tha Nang Road heading south towards the river. Ask the driver to stop at the 'Mouthong' turn-off – it's a dirt track down to the guesthouse, a 2-minute walk. Buses are rare after 17:00.

💡 Bring a tin of beer from a shop for 5,000 kip and sit on the concrete steps. The sun sets around 6:30pm year-round.
💡 The main stupa is closed to tourists, but walk behind it to see the small Buddha statues and get a view over the Mekong.
