Accommodation: Rooms, Amenities, Services Offered
The rooms were not only clean but also beautifully decorated, creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. As I entered the lobby, I couldn’t help but feel a sense of luxury with its elegant design.
I had done some research beforehand and decided to book a room on the 5th floor or higher for better views. And boy, was I satisfied! My room had a balcony that overlooked the majestic mountains. It felt like the clouds were descending right into my room! The furniture and appliances in my room appeared to be regularly cared for as they looked brand new.
However, one downside was that noise from neighboring rooms and whispers from people in the corridor could easily be heard. The resort itself is sprawling with large, well-maintained gardens filled with ancient roses.
Other Amenities

After an adventurous journey exploring the enchanting beauty of this place, I stumbled upon Chi Spa. The spa offers a variety of unique treatments, but what caught my attention was the famous herbal bath package inspired by the Dao people’s tradition. The experience was truly one-of-a-kind, allowing me to recharge my energy while immersing myself in the local culture. The serene ambiance and skilled therapists made it a truly unforgettable spa experience that I would highly recommend to anyone seeking solace and cultural immersion in Sapa.
Swimming Pool
I loved the four-season swimming pool at Silk Path Grand Sapa Resort & Spa. No matter the weather, I could enjoy a dip in the clear blue water while admiring the stunning view of the Hoang Lien Son mountain range. It was a refreshing and relaxing experience amidst the beauty of Sapa.
The book
I walked into The Book at Silk Path Grand Sapa Resort & Spa and was instantly captivated by its elegant design. The large windows allowed the warm sunlight to flood in, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere. I found myself surrounded by shelves of impressive literary works. I settled into a comfortable armchair and lost myself in the pages of my favorite book. It was a serene escape from reality, giving me moments of pure bliss during my stay at Sapa.
Sky 6 Lounge
At Silk Path Grand Sapa Resort & Spa, I enjoyed the classy atmosphere at Sky 6 Lounge. Its luxurious design and top-notch sound system made it the perfect spot for trendy entertainment. Sipping unique cocktails and premium wines while listening to stylish music created a memorable evening in the misty town. Sky 6 Lounge suits anyone looking for upscale nightlife experiences in Sapa.
Dining: Restaurants, cuisine options, dining experience
I had the pleasure of trying out their dining options at Silk Path Grand Sapa Resort & Spa.
Let me start with the breakfast buffet, which was simply delightful. So many choices were available that each day felt like a brand-new culinary adventure. The only dish that was repeated during my two-day stay was the fried rice, but that was no big deal considering the wide variety of desserts and fruit juices on offer.
For lunch and dinner, I visited both SaMu and Olivio restaurants. The food here was quite good, although I must admit there weren’t many vegetarian options available. Nonetheless, what impressed me the most was the restaurant staff. They were always smiling, incredibly polite, and willing to help in any way they could.
The only downside to SaMu restaurant was that it could get quite noisy at times with children or loud-speaking guests around. But overall, my dining experiences at Silk Path Grand Sapa Resort & Spa were enjoyable and definitely worth recommending!
