Hotels in Sapa are inexpensive even by Vietnamese standards. You can stay quite comfortably from 160 000 VND for a room for two (6.25 USD, see all about Vietnam's money and Exchange Rate), and a bed in a hostel-type dormitory room for single travelers will cost from 90,000 (3.51 given such a low level of prices here, everyone can afford for a small additional amount to choose a room with a balcony, which offers a breathtaking view of the mountains or valley, or choose a room with breakfast. It's all worth it.

If you are going to Sapa in the high season (autumn or spring) or during holidays and festivals, we strongly recommend that you take care of booking in advance. Of course, at any time arriving in Sapa, you will not stay completely without a roof over your head, but you will get the worst options from the rest and at fabulous prices. As our experience shows (the authors of the site), during the periods of holidays and festivals, and they are frequent here, hotel prices can rise at times. So, for example, during the Holiday "Festival in the clouds" in April-May, absolutely all hotels in Sapa raised the price 5 times! Even hostels priced at $ 10 rented rooms for at least 50, and they still had to be found. Also, prices rise every Saturday and Sunday due to the arrival of local tourists from Hanoi. Therefore, we highly recommend booking a hotel in Sapa in advance. Please note that in some booking systems Sapa is written as Shapa.

The peculiarity of most hotels in Sapa is that the rooms here are not equipped with air conditioning. But this is not a problem at all, given the climate and the mountainous location of the city. Rather, in the winter months, it is worth taking care that there is a warm blanket in the room, because at night it can be very cold, and the buildings are not heated. Some hotels offer in-room heaters or electric blankets.

Please also note that for most accommodation options in and around Sapa, breakfast is not included in the room rate, although it can easily be ordered on site at the hotel for a small extra charge. Homestays in the vicinity of the town usually also offer a joint dinner with family and other tourists, which is a special "feature" of local Homestays.

With the choice of a hotel location in Sapa, the approach is quite simple: Wherever you choose a hotel in the city of Sapa, given the small size of the town, you can reach any place within it in five to ten minutes on foot. And so the only thing you should pay attention to when choosing a place is the view from your window or balcony to the mountains or the city. However, the very center of the city and the most touristic area is spread around the stadium and the market, southeast of the lake, and it is here that you should recover if you arrived in the city without a pre-booked hotel.

An alternative accommodation option in Sapa is home accommodation Homestay (householder). Of course, in reality, accommodation does not take place in the homes of local residents, but in specially built houses like guest houses, although they are positioned as hostels.

Such options are offered not in Sapa itself, but in ethnic villages in the vicinity, and there are usually overnight stays during trekking trips, but you can stay in them yourself. Homestays are available in search engines and hotel reservations, as well as other options, and you can get to the desired village by taxi, on a rented motorcycle, or on your own by going trekking. Therefore, if you could not find a hotel in the city or just want exotics, then go to the villages, it will not be difficult to find a hostel there.

Another recommendation regarding hotels in Sapa: if you buy a package tour to Sapa in one of the travel agencies on the street Hanoi, very carefully approach the choice of hotel. The fact is that it is not uncommon for tourists in the travel agency to show wonderful photos of the hotel with a view of the mountains, and upon arrival in Sapa it is found that the hotel is very bad. Therefore, before deciding to buy a tour with a certain hotel, do not be lazy to go to any internet cafe (they, by the way, are often directly in travel agencies in Hanoi) or walk to your hotel (there is internet in almost every hotel, and, in most cases, completely free of charge), and by the name of the hotel
