"We spent two nights here to take a rest. The room was large, comfortable and had everything we needed. The staff is friendly and very helpful. Free water was also available in the room. Unfortunately there was one downside to the room: there was mould behind the wardrobe and on the window sill. We travelled by bicycle and were allowed to store our bikes safely in the hotel lobby. We were also allowed to clean our bikes with a hose right in front of the hotel. Thank you very much for that!"

"The room we stayed was spacious and very clean. It was facing the red river right next to the border bridge and hence the night scene was so fantastic. The ground floor lobby and the reception area was large and well decorated. The hotel provided the breakfast with various kinds of food including traditional Chinese, Vietnamese and Western styles. Besides, the hotel was located in a quiet street with some street shops within walking distance. I would highly recommend this hotel if you come to Lao Cai."

"Given a room upgrade to the best view upon check in. Staff was friendly. Room was clean and comfortable. Entering the lobby on 3rd floor felt like entering a totally different environment vs outside - modern, fun. Limited English + food options but this was manageable for a 2 night stay. Local + western cuisine available for breakfast."

"I stay at this hotel frequently when I travel to China. The staff are friendly, the rooms are spacious and clean, all amenities provided. Things to improve: Communication with whatsapp messages. The response is slow and when I required information to book a car to Sapa it took 2 hours to respond with a price of 600,000vnd. Meantime I had the hotel at Sapa help book a car for 500,000vnd within 20mins of messaging. Whatsapp is a fantastic app for foriegners to communicate with the hotels, so I hope this is improved service to help their business grow. For hot water, make sure the switch near the bathroom is turned on. Other then that, it is a fantastic hotel."
