Amantaka (Wikipedia)
is a luxury resort and hotel in Luang Prabang,
Laos.
It is one of the 34 properties operated by Aman Resorts, hospitality company founded
by Indonesian hotelier Adrian Zecha in 1988, present in more than 20 countries. The hotel,
located in a French colonial building
constructed between 1901 and 1910, opened in September 2009.
A boutique hotel, it contains
24 lavish suites, encircling a central courtyard and is designed with a mixture of traditional
Lao furnishings and modern. The suites range in size from 70 to 120 square metres and include
eight suites, four pool suites, eight Khan pool suites, two Mekong pool suites and two Amantaka
pool suites. All of the rooms have a king-sized bed centre of the suites beneath a traditional
high ceiling. They are painted in white and have mahogany or dark wood furnishings and windows.
The rooms are reported to be between 1,100 USD and 1,900 USD a night in 2024.
I was lucky enough to be welcomed by Elodie, Tshewang and Somsavard to visit this magnificent place, and take many photographs.
