​A NEW DALAT EXPERIENCE

With a similar climate to temperate regions in Europe, more than 100 years ago the French has nurtured the idea of turning Lam Vien plateau into the largest administrative-tourism city on the Indochina peninsula. Throughout countless historical ups and downs, the picturesque design – every slope, every rooftop which runs across the terrain has gradually appeared in the cold mist. The signature cold of Dalat laid the foundation for everything, from the captivating nature to the generous culture, and from unique highland cuisine to the antique architecture. And Ban La Boutique Hotel was brought to life based on these special materials and ingredients.

'Ban La' means Iron in Vietnamese. We believe no symbol would perfectly describe the cold of this Lam Vien plateau other than the warmth from the charcoal iron from the good old days. Besides flattening clothes, will it flatten a weary, wrinkled soul because of the chaotic life in the city?

What we truly crave to bring to our beloved guests is the warmth that lies deep down within. All the rooms have distinct and unique designs. The space is condensed with thick walls and wooden ceilings. And the warmth that we wish to light up within us will spread to every corner of the room, and to the terrazzo bath where you soak in warm water and enjoy the view of the afar hills. With a deep appreciation of local value, we hope to convey little messages about the distinct nature and amiable people of Dalat through our dishes. Let's go for a bike ride along the misty slopes in the early morning or participate in a painting class when the sunset lays a warm coat on the hills.
