The appropriately named Satri House (‘satri’ is ‘lady’ in the Laos language) is here for us to witness the beauty of Laos – the indigenous lifestyle of its people, its simplicity, elegance and sense of grace. Inspired by Laos culture and built at the turn of the last century as the residence of Prince Soupha-nouvong (the resistance leader known as the “Red Prince” who later became The Lao People’s Democratic Republic’s first president in 1975) Satri House is deemed the most stylish boutique residence in Luang Prabang. Be sure to discover the best spots to admire the sunrise or explore the friendly old town (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) along the Mekong, and enjoy the meditative silence from the surrounding temples.

In today’s era of cold modernism, exact science and calculative digitalism, there is a fervent need for something more. At Rakkojae, the team believe that the elegance of traditional Korea and the warm-heartedness of the Korean people is the answer to this problem. Seoul has ranked as the world’s ninth safest city in the world and Rakkojae, a stunning example of a Hanok residence, is truly a breath of fresh air from the many ubiquitous hotels. Hanok are traditional residences and fine examples of classical Korean architecture that invoke harmony and elegance in every view of the property. A stay at Rakkojae provides an unforgettable travel experience that is sure to nourish your inner spirit. If the comfort from the stunning architecture and design of a Hanok is the beautiful hardware, then the elegance and warm-heartedness of the Korean people is the software and we believe it is these factors that create the sense of place unique to Korea, that really cannot be experienced anywhere else in the world. With the passage of time Hanok have developed an old-fashioned ambiance and grace that cannot be replicated in modern hotels. It is a home that is in harmony with nature, where even the wind and the moonlight come to rest.
