Arriving in March to find a fire blazing in the lobby fireplace was a bit of a surprise after the heat of Hanoi! It is typical of the little touches that make this remote resort so memorable: a tribal costume display in the lobby; madeleines, macarons and almond croissants at breakfast; caged rabbits to amuse the children; bathroom heaters, etc.....

We were so pleased with our stay here. There are cheaper places closer to town but I think they are probably very noisy. I loved the peace and tranquility of being "up the hill" Breakfast was great and staff was so friendly. A bonus in that we arrived from the train (horrible trip) AND OUR ROOM WAS READY AT 8... More

We stayed 2 nights at this hotel. We had a huge family room with a king and 3 singles. We had a verandah that looked over the town and lake with the mountains in the background. The breakfast was fantastic with a wide range of continental and omelettes and eggs cooked to order. Freshly squeezed juice was a delightful bonus.... More

I felt as though this beautiful hotel would also sit perfectly in a snow covered village. It has that earthy warm feel. And it did sit perfectly on top of a hill with great some views of the mountains. A very beautifully maintained hotel with impeccable gardens. A short walk to the center of the town and markets. We enjoyed... More

This mountain hotel fits into the environment as a mountain retreat-type destination. Comfortable rooms, fireplaces in the lobby and lounge area. The breakfast is huge and safe to eat the fresh food for travellers. Good location to walk into town and try other restaurants. The restaurant is a perfect size for the breakfast but feels too empty for dinner. However... More
