"At check in, they kept insisting we have not paid for our room!, we had to show her our cc statement that it’s paid for. They won’t give us a room with a view, even though we were the only people staying there. We had to keep our curtains closed throughout as it was directly to an open top of the next building. At checkout, we were asked to pay for our room again! On our insistence, they let us go, as I said’ we paid for our room when we booked! Nice hotel, but the insisting that we have not...

"None of the listed amenities actually exist. No pool. No spa. Horrible location way out on the edge of town. On the positive side, the girl at the front desk was very helpful. She helped me get a train ticket out of Lao Cai. I was going to stay three nights but left after one. Also the bed was nice and comfortable after a few weeks of hard traveling. Oh, and there was supposed to be a free breakfast but there was no cook so it consisted of a cup of really bad cold coffee. Unless you just...

Sapa Praha Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A lot of choices for breakfast. The hotel is pretty clean as well as the room. We stayed at a family room with 2 queen beds and one full and a tub. The highlight of our stay is the staff members. Everyone is very welcoming and helpful. They will give you recommendations, greet you as soon as they see you. They always give us juices or tea whenever we are in the lobby waiting for our ride. We will definitely gonna come back to this hotel. There are a lot of other hotels around the town. But the service we received from them is what’s gonna make us to come back. Also, very convenient location with a great view."

Aliana Boutique Sapa Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"This hotel is definitely out of the main area and you have to walk up a hill so if access is an issue f ind a hotel that is closer to town. We ended up having to take a Grab in and out Because there was lots of construction on the road. Not the best breakfast unfortunately breakfast options were very limited. The room was very spacious but it did have a musty smell that wasn’t pleasant."
