With breathtaking views across the scenic valleys below, which are home to villages populated by the Tay and Red Dao minorities, the Topas Eco Lodge does take around 30 minutes to reach by car from the centre of Sapa - but you won't regret making the effort.
The Lodge is deep within the Sapa Valley, atop two cone-shaped hills - it doesn't get much more removed from the hustle and bustle of life than this. While facilities are reasonably basic, they're very comfortable, finished with natural stone and woods, and softened by splashes of warm colour and local textiles. Bathrooms are bright and comfortable, painted in neutrals with natural wood highlights.
Views from the Lodge are truly spectacular, whether you're relaxing at the outdoor dining area or setting off, by foot or bike, down one of the excellent nearby trails.
