In-Depth Review
Rooms and decor
La Xanh Hotel (sometimes listed as Green Leaves Hotel) is a compact budget place with just 42 rooms, so it feels more like a small boutique than a chain. Reviewers in a Superior room with a balcony — around 20 sq m — describe a work desk, a flat-screen TV, a wardrobe, a kettle and a private bathroom with a hot-water shower. They say the room is clean, the linens and towels are fresh, and the little balcony looks out over Hoa Binh, the old quarter of Dalat. Open the door in the morning, breathe in the cool air and a Dalat coffee, and the atmosphere does the rest.
Food and amenities
There's a small on-site restaurant serving Vietnamese food and a cocktail bar, plus free Wi-Fi throughout with a genuinely strong signal. The front desk handles concierge requests and tours — guests report booking a Lang Biang and Datanla Falls trip through them for almost half the online price. Staff speak decent English, check-in is quick, and there's luggage storage if you check out before leaving town. The one gap: no pool and no spa, so this is a base, not a resort.
Location and getting there
The hotel sits on 3 Thang 2 street in the Hoa Binh district at the heart of Dalat — about a 5-minute walk (500 m) to Dalat Market and the night market, the city's headline draw. It's roughly 0.9 km to Xuan Huong Lake and about 1 km to Dalat Cathedral. Guests love walking out for Banh trang nuong (Da Lat pizza) and a strawberry smoothie at the night market around 7pm, then strolling back to bed without flagging a taxi.
Things to know before booking
The honest caveat: La Xanh is a fresh listing on Trip.com, so it has no accumulated guest scores yet — we judged it on location and facilities rather than reviews. It's a small budget hotel with basic facilities, not a full-service property, and there's no pool or spa. If you want amenities to fill a day on-site, look elsewhere; if you want a cheap, central place to sleep between days out, it delivers.
Our take
La Xanh Hotel Dalat suits budget travelers, backpackers and anyone who wants a walkable downtown base for under $29 a night. We rate it the best value-for-location pick on the list for travelers who use the hotel as little more than a comfortable place to rest between days of exploring.
