Inspired by the cultural beauty of Vietnam’s highland regions and combined with opulent European architecture, this architectural masterpiece by Bill Bensley delivers a world-class resort experience, evoking an image of a charming, historic Sa Pa once frequented by the French. The overall design is a harmonious fusion of the vibrant colors of ethnic minority cultures in Vietnam’s Northwest Highlands with the allure of elite French fashion from the 1920s–1930s.
This resort masterpiece by Sun Group and the “king of resorts” Bill Bensley in Sa Pa — Hotel de la Coupole — captured the attention of leading global tourism experts less than a year after its debut. As a result, it was honored by the World Travel Awards (WTA) with the titles “World’s Leading Design Hotel” and “World’s Leading Iconic Hotel” at the 26th WTA Gala Ceremony held in Muscat (Oman) in late November 2019, followed by a series of other prestigious international accolades.
