Description
The reception area for this hotel is the living room of the family that runs it, and the place also doubles as a pawn shop. So, you can pay for a room, or just hock a gold earring if you like. Not that you'll need, to -- the rooms here are cheap and good value. Some of them only have windows in the 'changing room' that leads to the bathroom, but if you leave the door open, you still get good light. Otherwise, you get pink canopy-mossy nets, good furnishings, and a friendly family that doesn't speak a word of English for some of the lowest prices in town. Go for the front room if you can, which has a balcony for the same prices as the other rooms.

This is a large, relatively new hotel strung up on the left on the way into town from Hanoi, with the standard, obligatory massage and sauna facilities as well as Son La's only elevator.

Hoang Son Hotel
69 Ngo Luong Bang, Son La
This tall hotel in the loop behind the market is unused to having westerners drop in requesting rooms. Or maybe they get a little jumpy because the massage parlour behind the hotel is so obviously a brothel it's not even funny. The massive eating hall is a good indication that Vietnamese tour... more
