Sa Pa Clayhouse exceeded our expectations from the fast check-in to the walk into our executive king size room. We woke up to a breathtaking mountain view. It was magical. The signature Rice restaurant dining experience was amazing. Every dish was beautifully prepared. A huge thank you to the team for making our stay unforgettable! The Harveys, Australia

I can't say enough good things about our stay here. Everyone was friendly, helpful, and professional. I was quite ill while I was there and they went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable and had what I needed to feel better. I highly recommend Sapa Clay House and hope to return one day!

The best place we stayed in Vietnam. It is beautifully decorated with an unbelievable view. The staff are very kind and helpful and the food is delicious.

The owners could not have been more responsive to every need. If you visit Sa Pa / Fansi Pan, you must stay at the Clay House. I have rarely relaxed to this extent, and the food / drinks were outstanding. The only negative comment about the Clay House, is that we had to leave.

My dream come true stay! The staff is so personable and welcoming and the property is so gorgeous and calming. It’s only a short grab ride from the restaurant area, but the food on the property is extremely fresh and ALARMINGLY delicious. They used all the veggies and herbs from their garden and anything outsourced is organic. They own the Tonkin Spa, which was the cherry on top to our stay in Sapa. I will definitely come back. It’s worth every penny

My husband and I had a fantastic stay at Sapa Clay House - I only wish it had been longer! We slept in one of the bungalows overlooking the rice fields and the view was stunning, even on mornings when there was some fog. The bed was comfortable and the room was unique and charming. The resort is run by a family, which only adds to the charm. The manager was attentive, helpful, and friendly - he even waited up late for us when our bus was late! He gave us excellent recommendations for activities and food, called us taxis whenever we needed one (and we paid less this way), and was fun to chat to. The whole family was delightful, helpful, and fun to be around. And of course, they had the cutest dog! I also highly recommend the food at Sapa Clay House. The breakfast was so good that we came back on day for lunch! The ingredients are fresh and local, and we could taste the difference. Sapa was the highlight of our time in Vietnam and I recommend anyone who visits to spend time at Sapa Clay House!

Loved every second of our stay at Sapa Clayhouse. Spent 3 nights and did not want to leave. Every staff member was super friendly and helpful and made us feel really welcome. Everyone had a huge smile on their face the whole time, really feels like you're staying with a special family. Everything is decorated beautifully, looks incredible and spotlessly clean. Food was delicious and the chefs put in a lot of effort making everything taste and look amazing and were great at accommodating any requests. Location perfect really short car trip into Sapa town but views of the mountains and local walks meant we stayed nearby mostly. Staff gave really good recommendations for trips highly recommend the spa it was Outstanding.

This is a must stay in Sapa. The views are stunning, the food is magnificent and the service is superb. Located a little away from the tourist town it is peaceful and friendly, but offers great tours and walking access to the valley away from the obnoxious crowds.
View from room.

This is a truly gorgeous hotel. My room ("Bamboo Hut" is stunning - feels more like a villa than a hut, real luxury, with gorgeous local art. The whole roof is a stunning, hand made tapestry in gorgeous red and golds. There are big windows and a double door that opens - giving you a huge view of the valley. Bathroom has a little flower-bedecked outside space next to it. Really a joy and even better than the photos. The hotel also has gorgeous communal spaces - the infinity pool is as beautiful as it looks in the photos. There are also roof terraces where I saw the most heart-stopping views across the valley at dawn. The hotel is run by a beautiful extended family, and the spirit of love and peace permeate the restaurant and reception areas, while you are left in total peace in your room or on the terraces. The only thing I was disappointed by in this hotel, is that it is right next to a road that's quite noisy with motorbikes. I don't think this will matter for most rooms, but the bamboo huts, which are closest were a little noisy during the day. Everything quietens down though for night time, and the staff mentioned they were working on a bit more sound insultation for these rooms. Otherwise, a truly stunning hotel - you'll be in heaven!

10/10

The staff went above and beyond for my stay here. Booked a trekking tour through them. I liked how they encouraged us to support local. Enjoyed my massage in the spa. The masseuse lady knew what she was doing. I ended up having all my meals at the hotel because they were so well made. I'm going to have to come back one day!

We stayed in the bamboo hut and it was really unique experience. Bed was comfortable and they even have a wooden bath tub. We had an amazing view when we open our doors. Big thanks to Hai for the 10/10 hospitality and helpful suggestions of activities for us. We enjoyed the market tour & the cooking class, which was our lunch on that day. We extended 1 more night because we love the place so much especially the infinity pool. We had three meals there and the ingredients were mostly home grown and very fresh and tasty. Highly recommended if you are looking for a place in the mountains!

really loved the place. place was super clean and always been checked when we leave the room even for breakfast or dinner in the hotel. the cooking class was quick and i’m clear. you must try it while staying. Loui is the best chef. We had most of the dinner and breakfast here and always satisfied. Staffs were always friendly and thoughtfull. Trekkings were great. We stay 5 nights and never regret about it.

We could not recommend Sapa Clay house more. From the beautiful flower and vegetable gardens, the incredible view, the impeccable service, the spectacular food, the additional spa services, the gorgeous rooms… I cannot say more than just wow! It’s a must!!

10/10

The staff was extremely helpful and friendly. They above and beyond to cater to our needs. The property is beautiful and well-kept and the view of the mountains and rice terraces are the best in Sapa. It was definitely worth it staying a bit out of the town center which was busier and more crowded than expected. The homemade meals they prepared were a highlight, offering both authenticity and great taste. And finally, if you’re lucky, you’ll see the management’s cute furry friends running around the property!

Its everything and more! Its not luxurious so don’t come expecting that, however the place is amazing! I can’t say enough about the staff, everyone was so nice and helpful. The owner Manh also help arranged a car to drive us to Lai Chau, outside of Sapa. Which i highly recommend. Oh, and the food! Would stay here again next time im back. We also, stayed two nights in town. Big difference between the noises and how peaceful and quiet it is here at night.
