The LOOP, a marvelous 3-in-1 hotel in Da Lat


Whether you’re looking for a well-furnished hotel with amazing views, a scenic place to camp, or a delightful cafe flush with ‘grammable corners, you’ll find them all at The LOOP, a boutique hotel that offers coffee service.

An enchanting rotunda on elevated ground with 360° views of Da Lat’s inner city, The LOOP is a one-of-a-kind place that deserves a spot on your bucket list.

If you come across the wide shots of The LOOP on the Internet, you may assume that this spacious and nature-surrounded place is nestled on a hill far away from the city center. 

However, it’s located right inside Da Lat and just a 7-minute drive from the central St. Nicholas Cathedral.

From the St. Nicholas Cathedral on Trần Phú Street, ride for about 50 meters until you see a roundabout. Make a left turn onto Lê Hồng Phong Street, ride for about 1KM, and turn left onto the smoothly rolled Triệu Việt Vương Street. Ride for about 990 meters until you see a right turn onto An Sơn Street.

Make the turn, then ride for about 5 minutes until you spot a white rotunda decked out with glass windows with a sign that reads “The LOOP” on your right.

A verdant garden in the courtyard, lined with hydrangea and Mexican sunflowers, makes you feel open to nature even when indoors.

If you want to be closer to nature, there’s no better way than camping, which is also available here.

Descend from the ground floor to a campground on the hillside, where you’ll find three well-equipped tents.

To jazz up your chilly evening, fire up a grill for a campfire supper as you enjoy the million-dollar view of sparkling valleys lit up by greenhouses, a breathtaking sight highly sought after by travelers in Da Lat.

These bungalows are actually tents furnished with wood flooring, plush beds, and camp-style chairs where you can sit back and relax over stunning views of surrounding scenery.

As comfortable as these tents look, keep in mind that all bungalow dwellers share a communal bathroom.

Because of the escalating Covid-19 situation in Vietnam, the availability of rooms and hotel rates may fluctuate on certain dates, so call the hotel management ahead to check the prices and options available.
