It's sad to see such a beautiful hotel unable to live up to its potential. The road to the lodge is downright treacherous. The views are nice but to an extent, marred by construction in the valley below. Most unfortunate is the place is unmanaged. The only communication you will ever receive from the management is a letter from the... More

We stayed here for a night and a day and a half in April. A family of 4 with 2 young kids. I can say it was one of the best parts of my Vietnam trip. The location is so peaceful with gorgeous views of the surrounding mountains and valley. It is literally in the middle of nowhere. The trip... More

Its hard to get to, and like most hard to get to places it has its limitations however it is in a beautiful location worth the trip. Other reviewers said the food was cold, sure maybe a little but not way out of limits the food service gets a B not an A. The food service staff are locals and... More

The disappointment is not the place itself, it is the management! We booked one bungalow for three people, so we had one extra bed in the room. In the morning my aunt said that it was a terrible night and she had a back pain. We looked under the matrace amd learnt that the standard space between the grate was... More

We stayed at the lodge for three nights - which seems to be a bit longer than the average stay. It certainly appeared to us that plenty of folks zoomed in and out for a night - which is in my opinion a shame given the time it takes to travel from Hanoi to Sapa and beyond . If you... More

On the surface, the ecolodge looks wonderful. The cabins were tidy and well appointed, but everything was damp through the entire stay. The room was damp, the sheets and towels were damp, and all of our clothes were damp. The food at the lodge was also sub-par. Breakfast and dinner both were lacking, food was cold when should have been... More

Topas is set in a beautiful location, and the cabins are very comfortable. We had pre-booked a trekking tour and our guide was very knowledgable and adapted our itinerary to suit the weather; it was very misty when we visited so he arranged for us to visit spots where the visibility was good. Unfortunately the organisation/management is very poor. I... More

Topas is located outside of the touristy area of Sapa. It is a place to go to see incredible views, interact with locals, dine well and relax in a cozy little personal cabin. You can easily arrange tours and hikes with the Ecolodge upon arrival. Topas offers a range of activities and will happily arrange them for you. This place... More

A regular traveller at a range of budgets - at over $100 a night this was a treat for my birthday on a 12 Day trip to Vietnam from the UK. It is clear that the negative elements of reviews on this place have not read about exactly what the lodge etc. is trying to be and achieve. Arrival is... More
