SpicyLao Backpackers

Female dorms and a garden bar where solo women reliably find travel companions; staff run waterfall trips and alms-giving ceremonies from the front door. The reviews are thin on specifics beyond the social pull.

• The garden bar's nightly gatherings create an easy way to meet people without the awkward atmosphere of hostel mixers.
• Staff help coordinate cultural activities like alms ceremonies, which can be intimidating to approach alone as a tourist.
• The hostel has a garden bar with nightly hangouts aimed at connecting solo travellers.
• Female-only dorm options are available.
• Staff organize group tours to waterfalls and alms-giving ceremonies.
• The hostel is centrally located near the night market.
