A 5-Star Eco-Luxury Wellness Hotel in Luang Prabang – Member of Hilton Honors & SLH

The Namkhan has been welcoming guests since October 2019 but has been operating as an organic farm since 2016. We attract professionals and volunteers from around the globe, bringing individual skills to the development of the resort and eco farm.

A holistic luxury hotel between jungle and river

The Namkhan is more than a hotel. It is a sanctuary of eco-luxury and transformative wellness in the heart of Luang Prabang. As a Small Luxury Hotels of the World – property and proud Hilton Honors partner, The Namkhan brings together nature, mindful luxury, and authentic hospitality.

A certified 5-star retreat just 15 minutes from the airport, train station, and UNESCO-listed Old Town, we offer an immersive experience where jungle silence, river breeze and botanical gardens meet elegant villas, riverfront suites and refined glamping tents.

Rooted in purpose, designed for rest

The Namkhan began as an organic farm—rooted in permaculture and sustainability. Over time, it evolved into a boutique luxury retreat while keeping its soul intact. Today, our farm-to-table restaurant ROOTS and hand-crafted design elements still reflect our commitment to nature and Lao culture.

We are a destination for those seeking deeper connection: to the land, to the body, to the self.

True wellness, responsible luxury

At The Namkhan, wellness is not a service—it’s a way of life. Guests enjoy daily riverside yoga, natural therapies at our Jungle Spa, personalized detox programmes and expert-led retreats. All guided by specialists and supported by our in-house physician.

Our wellness area features a river-view sauna, ice baths, nature-surrounded massage rooms and three unique pools. Every space is crafted for deep rest and inner renewal.

Sustainability by design

Sustainability is at the core of everything we do: solar energy, zero-waste systems, regenerative farming and biodiversity protection. As part of the Considerate Collection, we meet strict environmental and social standards.

But we also believe true luxury lies in people—our multilingual team delivers each experience with care, professionalism and soul.

Experiences that matter

Whether you’re celebrating a honeymoon, enjoying a family holiday, taking a digital detox or starting a wellness journey, The Namkhan creates personalized experiences: kayaking, jungle treks, Lao cooking, cultural workshops and more.

So that every guest finds a space to feel at home, to feel alive.
