Our first night in Vietnam was spent at the 4-star Bora Hotel in Sa Pa which was opened last July 2024.  We stayed in Room 409, one of their 65 newly-renovated rooms (Family, De Luxe Twin,De Luxe Double, Superior Twin, Standard Twin, Standard Triple) with balconies, air-conditioning, TV, and wardrobe. 

Room 409

Our private bathroom had a shower and free toiletries. Free WiFi was available in our room and throughout the property.

 

Our bathroom

We had our dinner at the modern, 200-pax Bora Essence Restaurant. With two wood-burning fireplaces, serves brunch, lunch, dinner, and high tea with halal, vegetarian and vegan options and a child-friendly buffet. Its diverse menu featured a harmonious blend of local dishes from the Northwest region and creative Fusion dishes plus a rich collection of local and imported wines.
