Independent, Lao Cai hotels

"Excellent "

"From entrance to dining, the hotel exudes the decadence and flamboyance of a French colonial past. This hotel is truly luxurious and although a bit pricier for Vietnam it is so worth the extra for the lovely stay it gives. The swimming pool is so outstandingly lavish. By far the best pool we’ve ever swam in. The staff are very friendly and go beyond to make sure we were looked after. "

"A hotel in the center, comfortable and friendly, close to the train station"

"Nothing to fault with this property. We were looked after by the fabulous staff from the moment we arrived. We were presented with a welcome drink, our bags were stored until checkin (we arrived early after travelling to Sapa on the overnight train) and we were offered the use of showers in the pool area. This continued throughout our stay, with Sarah checking in on us every day via WhatsAp to see if we needed any advice or assistance with planning our day. We have never had this level of personalised service anywhere else we have stayed. The room was very spacious, and the view… wow! The hotel is perfectly located on the edge of town, making it quiet but only a short 5 minute walk to all the nearby shops and cafes. While there is some construction next door at the moment, we were not disturbed by this at all. Overall, this hotel is incredible value for money."

"The best place we stayed in Vietnam. It is beautifully decorated with an unbelievable view. The staff are very kind and helpful and the food is delicious. "

"A beautiful oasis with manicured gardens and an incredible view. It was a fun experience to stay in bungalows. The stuff were most welcoming and attentive. We didn’t want to leave! "

"This was a really good property location, even though the hotel was a bit dated, our rooms were massive, had a balcony that overlooked the mountains. We could listen to the roosters crowing in the morning and it was super convenient and peaceful, even though it was just a stone’s throw away from the main Sapa city area. 10/10 recommend, and would definitely stay here again.

"Trang in front desk was very helpful, polite and friendly. She arranged all our tickets and transportation. "

"Location, location, location. Room with a view to die for. The service was amazing. The breakfast sensational...especially the banana pancake. The room spacious and comfortable. Sapa is gorgeous and this hotel takes full advantage....with a touch of class."
