Hostel Lao Reviews

Fantastic atmosphere. We stayed in the pool house at the back of the courtyard, and spent most of our time in the beautiful and very welcoming courtyard. Everyone seemed to hang out there in the afternoons. The free wine at 8 p.m. in the courtyard is a very nice touch! Big kitchen for cooking, though it was always very crowded at dinner. Location is a bit of a walk from the main drags, but not too bad, and close to the bus station. Staff was friendly and everything felt very clean. Great value.

A fantastic place to stay. The receptionist is incredibly helpful and has some brilliant suggestions of things to do in the area. Beautiful garden with hammocks, small pool, shady corners etc. Fluffy white towels are free to hire (a brilliant bonus). The free breakfast of bread, pastries, tea/coffee and local produce was great. I liked how the receptionist answered the door each time to let people in too; very good security. Would (and have been) recommending this place to everyone!

Awesome hostel. Really the best we stayed in so far. Nice people (a lot of Germans but so far only nice ones), a great atmosphere and a really really cool staff. Go there!

would highly recommend this hostel to fellow travellers. Mary & Rob Garell

Fantastic service, great location, incredible value. Would definitely stay again.

nothing to say really, best hostel I ever stayed at, not kidding...

Nice hostel with a great garden including a pool (which you need in Mendoza!) Rooms are good, including airconditioning. Every night Free Wine! Good recommendations for tours. Close to the busstation. Definitly recommand you this hostel!

Lao Hostel was one of the best hostels we had all over SA in 4 months. We liked the room : very comfortable and clean, the location: walking distance to center as well as to the bus terminal. The staff was very friendly and helpful - always open for questions. The hostel has a beautiful garden with a pool - a perfect place to relax and meet people . Wifi worked fine and breakfast was more than Argentinian average. If we ever come back to Mendoza, we will definitley stay at Lao again.

Great hostel, very relaxed vibe - small pool is great for refreshing yourself in the heat - free wine in the evenings is a bonus. Kitchen has everything you need, good breakfast - very helpful staff. Stayed in double room ensuite which was clean and well priced. Only downside for me was location which is near the bus station but not much else, if I were to go again I would say nearer the national park but loved this place.

Loved this hostel! A bit far away from the center, but not too bad.

Mike, Celeste and staff were great. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Mendoza thanks to these guys.

Hostel LAO is one of the best hostel where I've been in my entire "career" of traveller. Perfect atmosphere, cleanliness, cool environment and confort!

Absolutely fantastic stay! Great value for money, really felt like home over Christmas. Mike and Celeste are fabulous, keep up the good work!

Mike was really helpful when we first arrived and had great suggestions about the city. We. Loved his enthusiasm and friendliness. We loved the pool room which is where we stayed, it had a lot of character. The kitchen and dining room were really nice. En

Thanks Cele and Mike for one of my favourite South American hostel experiences!

Nice room, just a little bit dark due to the lack of windows (it has only 1 in the bathroom). The air conditioner didn't work that well either. Apart from that, highly recommended.

Family-run, honest and nice.

One of the best time ever in Argentina for me! Love you guys!!!

Best hostel on my South America Trip! The owners took every effort to make my stay as convenient as possible. nice garden incl. pool. Nice and spacious rooms with comfy beds as well as clean bathrooms. All guests meet every evening and get a free glass of wine... will definitely go there again next time!!

Amazing staff, tours (horse riding with asado was great) and the breakfast was the best we have had so far!
