Hotel de la Coupole – MGallery Sapa
Indochine style is a style created by French architects, notably Ernest Hebrard, and applied to Vietnamese architecture during the French colonial period. This style is a combination of characteristics of European architecture and typical features of Asian architecture. Today’s Indochinese style is applied in houses, villas, hotels, and resorts in Vietnam.
Pictured is the hotel de la Coupole – MGallery in the center of Sa Pa town (Lao Cai). Architect Bill Bensley designed the hotel in an upmarket French style. The inspirational story for the composition is the life of the French among the indigenous peoples of Sa Pa, such as H’Mong, Dao, Xa Pho, Tay, and Giay 1920-1930.
The hotel owns 249 rooms, with Classic, Superior, Deluxe, Executive Suite, and Presidential room categories. The picture above is the favorite check-in point of tourists when they arrive at the hotel, with a view of the Hoang Lien Son range.
