Location: Scenic views, Close To Town
This luxury Topas Ecolodge Sapa Vietnam sits in Ban Lach village, around 18km northeast of Sapa town and 53km from Lao Cai train station. Positioned 900 meters above sea level on a hilltop, Topas Ecolodge Sapa offers breathtaking views of the Hoang Lien Son mountain range.
I found the location of Ecolodge Sapa Vietnam to be quite remote, about an hour away from Sapa City. While the surroundings were serene and peaceful, it would have been helpful to have more shuttle options available for transportation to and from Sapa. The current shuttle schedule only allowed for a maximum of three hours in Sapa, which felt a bit limiting.

Topas Ecolodge in Sapa, Vietnam is a quiet and peaceful place, away from the hustle and bustle of the city. I loved waking up in the morning, stepping out onto the balcony to admire the majestic mountains, listening to the birds chirping, and leisurely reading a book while sipping a cup of coffee.

The amenities at Topas were excellent; the bath was clean with fresh towels provided daily. The rooms were also spotless with daily housekeeping ensuring that everything was always tidy. Overall, my stay at Topas Ecolodge was truly memorable thanks to its beautiful location and great amenities.
