New hotel accommodates adventurers

22 May 2025

Tourists can now explore the rural charm of Thakhek in Laos’ Khammouane Province with greater comfort and ease, thanks to the opening of a new boutique hotel in this idyllic location.

Opened in May 2025, La Mella Hotel Thakhek offers 21 stylish, well-appointed rooms and serves as an ideal base for discovering the region’s natural and cultural highlights.

The property is just a short walk from Centre Point Thakhek, a lively market area where guests can sample local street food while enjoying scenic views of the Mekong River and neighbouring Thailand across the water.

Located about six hours by road from Vientiane, Thakhek is a favoured destination for adventure seekers who are drawn to its rugged, natural wonders. Highlights include the famed Thakhek Loop, the impressive Kong Lor Cave and dramatic limestone landscapes.

With its fresh, welcoming atmosphere and prime location, La Mella Hotel offers a comfortable stay in one of Laos’ most exceptional destinations. To learn more or to start planning a journey for your clients, contact Asian Trails Laos
