The Hill Station Boutique Hotel

Very comfy room and bed, good location and great beer especially during happy hour. I would stay here again if I'm ever back in Sapa.

Stunning views and slightly out of the centre of Sapa, so away from the terrible noise and building site which is the rest of the town

We had a great stay at the Hill Station Boutique Hotel, Sapa. Manu was very kind to us, we had arrived from the overnight train to Lao Cai at 5.30am, and after the 1 hour bus trip got to the hotel at around 7am. He had previously arranged for an early check in which was great, so we were able to unload our luggage, shower and get ready for our first day in Sapa. The restaurant downstairs has an extensive menu of food, definitely a fan of the local Vietnamese soup that goes with rice (chanh?), as well as different flavoured rice wine. Manu also allowed us to have a late check out the following day, as our train back to Hanoi wasn't under 8.45pm. We highly recommend the hotel, beautiful rooms, a super super comfortable bed, and a 5 minute walk to the city centre chapel.

This 3 room hotel is the unloved step-child of a decent restaurant. Essentially the design of the restaurant, and the rooms, is excellent. But it is obvious that management is focused on the restaurant at the expense the accommodation. During our 3 night stay there was no housekeeping except for a change of towels - not acceptable at this price point. We highlighted the issue to the Polish manager but he seemed uninterested. On the plus side, the local staff are very kind and friendly. Also the views are excellent, if not as good as the neighbouring hotels.

Fantastic bed and helpful staff combined with a fantastic restaurant. The staff understood our needs and were consistently high quality and flexible in their approach. The room was well appointed with a fantastic bed and wonderful view of the surrounding mountains. The attention to quality and local ingredients and lifestyle were apparent everywhere.
