Hotel overview
Designed by renowned luxury resort designer Bill Bensley with sweeping views of Sapa Valley and serene rice paddy fields, the newly opened MGallery Hotel de la Coupole integrates the vibrant colours, patterns and textures of the region’s minority tribes with the sophistication of haute couture in the 1920s and 1930s French Indochine era. The hotel features 249 modern rooms and suites with six room types that overlook the legendary Sapa valley, mountain views and town square.
“This year marks the 27th anniversary celebration of AccorHotels’ presence in Vietnam and the launch of Hotel de la Coupole, an ideal hideaway with design and style inspired by the French Indochine era of the 1920s and 1930s, is our latest addition in the luxury and upscale segment. Our first MGallery hotel in Vietnam opened in 2009 and this new opening adds to our existing portfolio of six MGallery properties in Vietnam, which signifies our continuous growth in the country,” said Patrick Basset, Chief Operating Officer for AccorHotels Upper Southeast and Northeast Asia.

The ladies will don their colourful dresses and decorative ornaments and the gents dress in traditional costumes to interact, sing and play games with each other. Visitors are welcome to join in the long-standing tradition of merry-making.
