We had a very pleasant stay at Villa Maly; the staff were outstanding, very friendly and very helpful, and eager to assist in all aspects. Our room was comfortable - bed was quite nice - and although we had some trouble with the ceiling fan, this issue was corrected after the first night.
The hotel grounds are quite lovely and well-kept; just "enough jungle" feel without being overrun with vegetation. Our food experience at the hotel was limited to a light dinner upon arrival and breakfasts, all of which were adequate. I did enjoy their selection of fresh juices at breakfast.
The location is good; it is off the main street in Luang Prabang, so nice and quiet with little street traffic noise. Easy to walk to main tourist areas, markets, etc., although the hotel offers free bicycles if you prefer (and umbrellas). Free van to pick-up and return to LPQ airport was a nice perk, too.
