The Namkhan has now re-opened with limited availability, experiences and facilities until October 2025.
The Namkhan
Riverside comforts on the edge of nature in Laos
Encircled by jungle-covered hills and the meandering Nam Khan River, The Namkhan is a serene retreat in a country that prizes peacefulness. A few kilometres away, the resort’s namesake river meets the mighty Mekong in a confluence of nature, heritage and history. Expect a gentle getaway where luxury and tranquillity rule.
Every element of this Laos resort is designed for relaxation. Teak and bamboo bungalows, white tents and palm-topped cabins emerge from beautiful gardens that flow down to the river’s edge. Traditional peaked rooves signal traditional Laotian influence, while artwork and furnishings bring a touch of the contemporary. Explorer Tents complete with wooden furniture and woven rugs give a glamping-meets-Robinson-Crusoe feel, while Riverside Villas offer enormous beds, floor-to-ceiling windows and private, elevated verandas.

Gather for a dinner at the Farm to Table restaurant, where sustainably sourced, organic dishes are designed to energise and delight. The main pool bar serves up sunshine and light lunches. Tour the farm or head into Luang Prabang, a UNESCO World Heritage city. As night falls, the sounds of the jungle settle into a new rhythm, but the resort’s pace remains sedate. Slip down to the river to catch a sublime sunset, head to the outdoor cinema, or simply settle in at the bar for an evening of indulgence.

Considerate Collection
Actively sustainable luxury hotels
Environmentally Conscious
Transforming a rundown teak plantation into a flourishing organic farm with botanical gardens, The Namkhan takes ongoing care of the land and its now fertile soil – which is pesticide-free and irrigated by the nearby Nam Khan River. Much of the produce you’ll dine on is homegrown (you can learn more by joining one of the educational garden walks with informative QR codes next to each plant), supported by a zero-waste kitchen. The hotel is entirely plastic-free and mostly solar powered, offering mountain bikes and electric scooters to explore Luang Prabang.
Cultural Custodians
The riverside rooms at The Namkhan were sustainably built by a team of local carpenters using native teak wood, bamboo, and recyclable grass on the roofs. The interiors are filled with artworks and handicrafts made by Luang Prabang artisans, and every bamboo piece is handwoven by Mae Souk, the hotel’s resident bamboo weaver (who leads weaving workshops with guests to create traditional baskets and tea filters, paired with the hotel’s own organic tea blend). Gather vegetables from the hotel’s gardens, then learn how to prepare a five-course Laotian farm-to-table feast with The Namkhan’s chefs.
Community Minded
Many of The Namkhan’s staff members hail from the surrounding villages, and benefit from living onsite, with ongoing training opportunities and healthcare costs covered. Famers from neighbouring provinces are invited to visit the hotel and exchange their knowledge and skills, helping the community grow and work together. The hotel’s boat transports guests down the Nam Khan and Mekong rivers to visit various cultural sites and locally owned businesses, including Ban Chan Pottery House (run by the Lamphet family). The hotel has also dedicated one of its fields to shelter and care for around 20 stray dogs, in the hopes of helping them find forever homes with visitors.
