Description
We checked this place out because its position along Fansipan Road is perfect for views of the mountains. What we found inside is a kind of quirky but oddly likeable place, though most the views are actually from the patio seating on several of the floors. Some of the rooms are a bit shabby, but in a way that we found perfectly acceptable for the price. It was hard to establish exactly which rooms had fireplaces and which didn't, but the ones that do offer a good deal on a warm room in winter. The cheapest rooms have no views and no fire places, and are only good for saving a buck during warmer weather. It's an interesting fall back option if you strike out elsewhere on the street, and the views from the second floor common area are certainly something to savour. WiFi is available throughout.

Pinochio Hotel
15 Muong Hoa (Pho Cau May), Sapa
This very popular backpacker option has a good reputation, and deservedly so. The vibe here is almost like a youth hostel, and the rooms provide the best combination of low prices and good views in town. They have six different types of rooms, but only the very cheapest have no views at all. The... more



Camellia (Hoa Tra) Guest House
Sapa
Okay, so you won't get any views to speak of here at the Camellia. Kinda, sorta, views of the mountains if you look real close through the gaps between the surrounding buildings. But that's not what they offer. They offer good, cheap rooms for those planning to take in the views on your trek in the... more



Daling (Hoang Lan) Hotel
13 Pham Xuan Huan, Sapa
Most tourists don't know that Pham Xuan Huan even exists or where it is. In fact, many locals have no idea where it is either. You can reach it by taking the street just south of the church, where all the market stalls are, and just keep going. The road ends shortly, but there are several places to... more
