We booked 3 days and on arrival we were upgraded to a mountain view room. It was fantastic.
The room was large and well equipped with a fridge, AC, TV, hairdryer, electric kettle and several chairs and tables. All in good condition. There was also a nice little balcony with a view. The breakfast was plentiful, and it was a buffet with eggs, rice, noodles, soup, bread, sausage, fruit, vegetables, etc. Good selection, and friendly staff.
We had a good stay at Azure Sapa Hotel, and would like to come again if the road passes by again in the future.
The city has a lot to offer and is easy to get to from Lao Cai train station, either by public bus (40k) or tourist bus (100k).
You can also rent a scooter (120-150k) in town and explore the area on your own, or go on an organized hiking trip to the local villages nearby.
