Nam Khan Riverside Guesthouse

Six teak rooms where the Nam Khan meets the old town.

About

Nam Khan Riverside is a family guesthouse in a 1920s teak house on the Nam Khan river, two streets from the morning alms walk. Mrs. Keo serves sticky rice and river-weed breakfasts on the veranda, and her son Somphone guides bicycle trips to the waterfalls. The garden runs down to the water, where the bamboo bridge goes up every dry season.
