Plumeria was a former royal residence of Princess Khampieng and Prince Khamtan, a grandson of the 19th-century King Zakarine, in the city of Luang Prabang, Laos. Khampieng’s mother, Princess Vanthatmaly, built the 33-room boutique property, which is anchored by the 1938 residence.[1] The royal couple raised their four children in this house while Khamtan served as prefect of the provinces of Vientiane, Luang Prabang, and Sainyabuli. He died in a plane crash; his wife lived in the house until her death.
In 2001, the house was converted into a hotel.
