Nazim Indian Restaurant(位于 François Ngin 路)。不错的印度菜。这里的厕所可能不是国内最干净的,也许是因为河岸边一些餐馆的顾客会在有需要时被指引到这里,而不是被送到水边的芦苇丛中。Nazim 在万象汽车公司对面(Pang Kham Rd)又开了一家分店。市中心还有至少 4 家其他印度餐馆,味道都差不多。

Drinkers from Bor Pen Nyang often come here when it closes, then move on again to the Don Chan Palace nightclub once Samlo closes.

There are many places to stay in Vientiane at all price ranges. The nightly rate for a high-end hotel room can exceed the yearly salary of most Laotians.
Online booking platforms work as of 2024, but most accommodation in Laos has no online presence. Therefore, your best bet is to get into the town centre (for instance, Nam Phu Square) and start looking around along Setthathirat Rd and its side streets. You’ll find something within minutes except in "peak season" (Jan), when it will be really difficult to find a room. Book in advance.
High season is roughly Oct-Apr or May; low season, Jun-Sep.
Some places insist on an early nightly curfew and lock the front door without giving you a key. If you wish to enjoy the nightlife (what there is of it), make sure that you will be able to stay out and, more importantly, get in again. Often there will be a doorman who sleeps near the main entrance doors and can be woken up to get in, but it's wise to check the system they have in place for getting back in during the wee hours.
