The hotel is very well located and facilities are great. The staff is friendly and helpful, they try their best to respond to our needs. We had a spacious room giving a magnificent view on the mountain, room cleaned twice a day if needed. The breakfast buffet is nice enough overall, combining both European and Asian food. I especially appreciated the Pho which is very tasteful and well seasoned. The staff was also very thoughtful, they left a us note in the room about the weather forecast. We had a great stay there !

Great restaurant and breakfast, quick and effecient amenities like in-room dining and laundry, shuttle bus service to Sapa 3 times a day (~10 min to the stone church). Entices you to stay in the balcony in the room for hours looking at the view! We loved that they bring little cookies with thoughtful cards every night! We stayed in a valley view bungalow - note they are a bit far from the lobby and restaurant, but for this reason the hotel offers a free golf-cart service, we never waited mroe than 5 minutes either at the room or the lobby. Also if you want to walk, the grounds of the hotel are amazing and it is about a 15 minute walk with views, plants, birds, insects, and horses if you are lucky! Would definitely recommend to anyone going to Sapa, and will definitely return!

The breakfast was tasty - we always appreciate having an "omelette guy!" And the view at breakfast was outstanding. The view from our third floor room was also fabulous! The staff was able to give us good information regarding the sights we had chosen to see. We were able to be served a delicious lunch outside to enjoy the natural surroundings as well as the food. The room was of regular size and had a balcony. Although it seems hard to believe, the property does have views of the mountains, lake and city. And we enjoyed sitting at the lobby fireplace in the evening.

I can't recommend Sapa Hills enough! The hotel exceeded our expectations; the place is extremely cozy, warm, and welcoming. Facilities are well cared for, and clean. The best part of everything is the staff and Ms. Trang -the manager-, she's is a lovely woman who will do whatever it takes to help you feel comfortable during your stay and support you as much as possible. On our last day, we left quite early, her staff still served breakfast earlier so we wouldn't go hungry all the way to Hanoi. Sapa Hills was the highlight of our trip to the north of Viet Nam.

SAPAXA Lodge is truly a hidden gem.

SAPAXA Lodge is truly a hidden gem. If you are looking for a peaceful escape surrounded by nature and an authentic village atmosphere, this is the perfect place. Our family had an unforgettable experience, far away from noise and stress, where we could relax and reconnect with nature. The setting is beautiful and natural, offering a rare opportunity to experience real village life while still enjoying comfort. The calm environment, fresh air, and welcoming atmosphere make it ideal for families, couples, and anyone seeking a meaningful and refreshing getaway. This is more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience. We left with wonderful memories and would highly recommend SAPAXA Lodge to anyone who wants a unique, relaxing, and enriching stay.

A great, quiet mountain town - and we didn't even go for the Sunday market! We stayed 4 nights, and would come back. Take tours of the surrounding hill tribes and mountains with Mr Huy Trung, from Huy Trung Homestay, or use his self-guided walking tour maps. We enjoyed the second hand shops and Milano coffee cafe, and a restaurant at BacHA Boutique Homestay, by the lake.

Setting expectations with you: Sapa is an old town with lots of similar stores and shops. Nice people and I think 2/3 days are just enough to see everything there and nearby. I would recommend using ride services ( Grab, etc.. ) to get you around town and to see the sites. Otherwise, you will be walking ... a lot.. up and down hills and steps/steps. Bring cash to get better deals. Using CC means 3-5% charge fee. Small Note: Canadian Goose [Jackets] are not made or assembled in Vietnam...

Very difficult to find your way there, all homestay/hotel owners refuse to provide information and collaborate only with specific companies. English guides limited but a guide named Thao made our stay a nightmare. She was trying to push lunch and other side services, once she realized we didn’t want that, she stopped any guiding and intentionally destroyed half of one day and the whole second day by acting simply as a side person on the trip, not providing absolutely anything. Totally unprofessional and even verbally rude and sarcastic. Avoid at all costs!

The best part for us was the countryside . The town Was surprisingly noisy, lots of bright lights on the buildings. I expected a quaint town not a very busy touristy place. We took a private taxi 5-6 hours from Hanoi. Very long journey, the last part of the journey is a very steep incline with very rugged roads.

Mountainous area famous for plum.

Mountainous area famous for plum. It's called the white valley because during the spring the whole area is covered by plum flowers. So it's best to visit in early January. Otherwise, summer is a good time for plum picking. I had an enjoyable experience picking plum myself and brought lots of them home. I was lucky to visit during the weekends when they had annual horse racing competition. Really memorable. They also have weekly Hmong flea market on Sunday, you can eat local food and see ethnic people trading. Riding motorbike and looking at the mountain was fairly enough for me. You definitely should eat at Sa Mu restaurant. The food was so good that we went there twice.
