Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Felt very special here at a beautiful Hotel. Receptionists looked after us very well. Think their names were Vincent and Tam. The whole place was interesting with fascinating decor. Location excellent with a fabulous view over the lake. Food was outstanding with afternoon tea and food served everyday on the house. Really enjoyed my stay here.

I have to say, this is one hotel that has gone above and beyond expectations! Dalat Palace Heritage Hotel is a truly mind-blowing and iconic hotel nestled in the charming city of Dalat, Vietnam. This historic property offers a blend of timeless elegance, refined luxury and impeccable service. The stunning architecture, elegant facades, spacious interiors, detailed and enchanting ambience sets the hotel apart from other accomodations I have been to, not forgetting the breathtaking views of the surrounding natural beauty. The dining options are exquisite. The high and mighty have been accommodated here which also means it caters to a higher-end clientele. I have no regrets at all for spending my vacation time here. Hope to be back!

This hotel is more a decoration than a hotel. At first glance you're fascinated. A real old fashioned luxury style hotel with a lovely staff. The rooms are nice, the bathroom is spacious, everything looks so fine. As soon as you are in bed you realize, the beds are also old fashioned. No mattress nowadaws should be so uncomfortable. The whole night you're feel like fighting against falling out of bed. The staff of the hotel is friendly, really friendly but - unfortunately to say - completely incompetent. It's pitiful. It started with a booked airport shuttle service. We confirmed their offer and waited...and waited. Finally we took a taxi (which was in fact cheaper than the offered shuttle by the hotel). Arriving at the hotel we told them, we waited for the shuttle but it did not come and they were so sorry, so sorry, so sorry. They were really nice but it seems they are always overstrained. The forgotten airport shuttle is only an example for all the disability. Speaking English is a real challenge and to understand English is a barrier most of the staff can't overcome. To order something, for instance a beer on the terrace, is a challenge and finally to get the brand you want, simply luck. The breakfast wants to be noble, the quality is poor. That butter should be fresh and not a bit rancid should be self-evident. After a while you realise that complaining makes no sense because they do not understand. At check out we told the staff the fridge (mini bar) did not work properly. He smiled and had it forgotten in the same moment. The hotel calls itself a 5 star hotel, whatever that means from their point of view. The wonderful vintage Citroën in front of the hotel, which you can see on every photo is a good example for the hotel. From the distance it looks great. Coming closer you realise, this poor car is not maintained as is should be. It's a gem but nobody takes care of it. We only can say - do not waste money staying in this hotel. It is an illusion but the reality is a poor one.

This hotel had been recommended in several blogs that I researched so we booked it through Luxury Escapes. My thoughts about it are mixed. On the plus side it is an outstanding example of the heritage of this beautiful city and despite an extensive renovation in the 1990s remains true to its origins. It has exquisite decor throughout and show stopping gardens which sweep down to the lake. But on the minus side a lack of English is a problem . I am not elitist about this but in certain situations it is important , especially in a hotel of this calibre which purports to cater to English speaking guests. Maintenance seems to be a bit of an issue , with doors not opening and closing properly . Some of the bathroom fittings though charming are not up to standard - for example the grab rail for the bath fell apart when I touched it which could have resulted in serious injury . We reported it to the staff not as a complaint but in the interest of health and safety. They were very apologetic and offered us an upgrade but I wonder if they really understood the potential risks. The restaurant standard is not of the quality I was expecting especially as it is very expensive . On a couple of occasions we did not get what we had ordered - again I think as a result of a lack of understanding by the wait staff. And importantly for older people there are no guest elevators . We were offered the service elevator which we used a few times . On balance I would recommend staying for a couple of nights to soak up the ambience and the luxury. Don’t expect great food though .

The grand lobby entrance matches the imposing structure from the 1930’s. The staff were very attentive when we checked in yesterday. Our room on the first floor was terrible! Small and poky and awful bathroom. No good! I went to the reception and voiced my complaint to the front of house manager, a lovely, accommodating young lady. She was very apologetic and asked us to have a look at another room on the same floor. AMAZING! Probably 4 times the size of our first room. Really grand and a lovely, large bathroom. Thank you! We’ve read plenty of bad reviews of this Hotel and judging by our first room I can understand those reviews. The management, however, turned things around right away and made our stay memorable. If your not happy, just talk to them!

We first stayed in what was this magnificent hotel in 1997 and were excited to return. We were confronted with a shower that floods the whole room (one of our friends fell over because of the water and cracked her head!) and the water does not drain and the suggestion was to tie the shower curtain to the wall to ease flooding. Additionally we booked a 3 million Dong tour with an English speaking guide who couldn't take us to all of the requested places, and incidentally does not speak English.

Dalat Palace really is a special heritage property. It was built by French Colonials in 1922 as one of the grand opulent European-style hotels of Southeast Asia. The history is palpable as you step through the threshold and transport yourself back through time. Management has tried to preserve the grandeur with some success. It still retains vestiges of its high style -- the service, the dining rooms, high tea -- are excellent and reminiscent of what I imagine existed 100 years ago. The suite we stayed in was comfortable and well-furnished if a bit gaudy (although it fit somehow). Beds and bedding very comfortable. The gardens and lake view are magnificent. However, decay and the heavy hand of state management are evident here and there. Stairway carpeting is worn and a bit dirty. The walls of the entry foyer are plastered with ugly photographs of government dignitaries. The building facade needs cleaning and re-painting. Behind the annex of the hotel is unkempt. Overall though, we quite enjoyed our stay. Front desk, housekeeping and restaurant staff exceptionally attentive and polite.

Charming and quaint and a different hotel to the usual chain hotels but we really loved the character and history within this gorgeous hotel . The service is excellent and breakfast was an elegant and charming experience with much variety to suit all different tastes. It feels like stepping back in time into a grand time of class and glamour of days gone by, staying here is a lovely experience in itself and like most charming and historical places you need to be prepared for a few things such as shower over the bath and water splashing into floor and some noise from the street and corridors but it’s worth it to experience the charm of staying here! We really loved the little personal touch in this hotel such as an evening sweet hand delivered to your room with a note and the welcome go plates also a lovely touch We loved our time here, there is a shopping centre/supermarket only a 5-10 min walk by the lake . I see some negative reviews on here but wanted to give a positive review as we really enjoyed our stay in this charming hotel where you literally step back in time !

One of these hotels in south east asia with colonial style and french influence. Now locally managed but with so much potential. Sad to see the vintage car abandoned in front of the hotel with flat tyre and grass growing under but the restaurant still provide high fine dining service experience.
