Guests rate it well, with a score of 8.2 out of 10 from nearly a hundred reviews, and cleanliness is the standout at 9.0.

Location and getting around
Dong Loi Road puts you in the central district, a walk of about five minutes from Sa Pa Square, with cafes, restaurants, shops and the tour offices all within easy reach. The church, the lake and the station for the Fansipan cable car train are also close, so you can plan a full day out and be back for a swim in the evening. Taxis and motorbike taxis can be picked up around the square for the villages and the O Quy Ho pass, and an airport shuttle is available for a surcharge.
The rooms and facilities
With 81 rooms the hotel feels more personal than the large resorts, and rooms have air conditioning, with free Wi-Fi throughout. The indoor pool with loungers is a lovely place to warm up after a cool day outdoors, and the on-site spa, sauna and steam room are well suited to tired legs after a long trek. The hotel serves meals at Fansipan Restaurant, and breakfast is cooked to order and charged as an extra, so decide whether to add it to your rate or eat at the cafes nearby.
What to know
The hotel has seven floors and no elevator, which matters if you have heavy luggage, mobility needs or a room on a high floor, so ask for a lower room when you book and tell the staff if you need help with bags. Check-in starts at 2 PM, and early check-in is subject to availability and may carry a fee, while check-out is before noon.
It suits couples, small families and trekkers who want a comfortable base with a pool and a spa at a sensible price, and who do not mind climbing a few flights of stairs. Read recent reviews for the latest feedback on rooms and service.
