The breakfasts were especially notable, and the concierge Mrs Dong was wonderfully friendly and helpful.

The breakfasts here are excellent, including delicious fresh mango and other fruits !

The mango at breakfast is some of the best I’ve ever eaten!!

The communal breakfast arrangement seems to divide opinion in reviews.

The breakfasts where set around one table.

Breakfast was very nice, sitting communally with other guests at a large table.

The breakfast is excellent and homemade on the spot, the rooms spotlessly clean (far better than the 5 star place we stayed in previously).

Extremely clean hotel, great location (short walk from town centre/market), very friendly owner and a fantastic breakfast.

A great, fruit-based breakfast every morning at 7 and a warm "hello" every time you walk in the lobby.

The breakfast was lovely - eggs, fruit, toast and coffee.

The breakfast was outstanding with a selection of fruit, meats and eggs cooked to order plus recognizing me as an Australian, a jar of vegemite.

Breakfast was very good, particularly the fresh fruit!

but we had a warmly welcome, the room was nice and clean and the breakfast good!

The breakfast is bountiful with fruits, bread and juice.

Breakfast very good like home, can rent motorbike with very cheap price.

I had heard about the comfy beds and the spectacular breakfast at Dreams Hotel.

The breakfast is family style and very tasty.

Excellent breakfast which we got already to 05:30 am, no problem.

We had to bang on the door to be let in at 11 after trying to find somewhere to eat as we arrived late.

but if you ask them that you will arrived late from an activity, you need to ring the bell and they will come and open the door for you.

It is situated on the Main Street so it can be noisy in the room, and there is a ridiculous "karaoke" bar a few doors down that's quite loud!

I came back one day and the door was unlocked

our motorbikes were stored in the building next door during nightime.

The shower had multiple jets and the top floor has a nice jacuzzi and sauna, which is conducive to socializing with fellow travelers.The only reason we moved the next day to Dreams 3 down the street was because of construction noise next door.

She seems genuinely interested in her guests and of course is a ready mine of local information.

If you are looking for an extra treat, ask the owner to set you up for a full day motorbike road with Joseph and friends through the local countryside - best $US35 we ever spent!

The delightful Mrs Dung even dug our a special bottle of local honey when my 15 year old enquirer if there was any honey; he was very happy!

I am vegetarian and she prepared lots of local fruits and nice omelette for my breakfast.

We got good advice for local shopping and eating and they also arranged a motorbike rental at "normal" prices and an excellent, basically new Honda Airblade.

Breakfast is VERY good w variety of fresh fruits, bread, cheese, local jam, eggs to order and some super bacon or ham.

Perfect location: main road (easy to find for taxi), not too far from market, close to local restaurants and a few bars.

Also, they booked private transport for us to Pongour and Elephant falls which was £1,000,000 VND and the local tours wanted £1.3mil so very happy with that.

They offer a huge arrray of local fruits, plus peanut

I also rented out a scooter from the hotel for local sight seeing which was reasonable and in better condition than some others that I had used before.

The large communal style breakfast here is legendary and I shall certainly miss the very crispy and freshly cooked bacon served each morning together with the fresh local fruits.

She also helped us out in communicating with e local pharmacy.

It was more than we could possibly eat and all bought that morning from the local market.

The service by the owner and the two ladies was exceptional, they helped us with any queries such as finding good local places to eat, organising an airport shuttle to pick us up and also served a delicious breakfast with coffee,rolls, eggs, ham, bacon and plenty of delicious fruits (including mango, yum!).

Convinient location with a 5-10 min walk to the night markets and good local food options everywhere.

I would recommend taking a local bus out to elephant falls and having lunch just outside it, roast pork for £1!!

She helped with local advise and helped us hire motorbikes.

Location is OK, 7 min walk to the market in the city center (also the bus stop for the local buses is there).

Her local knowledge gets you to the favourite places in Dalat and surrounds and her networking of businesses gets you the best price.

but changes to more of a noisy nightclub at 8.30pm as  suddenly all the tables are reserved, and a DJ appears.

The air conditioning unit was quite loud which wasn't ideal.

Leaving, I’d booked a flight to Hue from Da Lat’s airport, Lien Khuong.

but better book in advance, as the hotel was full when we were there.

The hostess gave us helpful information, aided with booking (good) trips.

We booked a bus from Dalat to Mui Ne through the hotel, the booking went hassle free

The hotel owner also advised us on getting to our next destination and booked flights for us very cheaply.

The first place I’ll look to book if I’m ever back in the city.

We had no place booked and our motorcycle driver from the bus station brought us here.

Hotel can help book transportation to and from airport as well as any tours you’d like to do.

I booked superior double room and it was huge.

and Mrs Chung was amazing with helping us book Travel in Vietnam!

We booked in for 4 nights and ran away after the first night.

I love the room with balcony, there's a couch in the room where you can lie on and read a book or overlook the street.

will we stay again: We are already booked for next year!

All the staff were so helpful in booking tours for us and our bus trip to Mui Ne.

The receptionist helped with booking of a bus to Mui Ne and we also rented a scooter from the hotel without any problems.

They can also book a bus shuttle back to airport for you for 40,000k vnd.

As we were at the front of the hotel there was some traffic noise from the street,

Has double windows in the front rooms, so this is a rare case where one can get a street view with the window closed with no street noise.

Although in a noisy part of town, the double glazing minimised road noise.

We were initially put into Dreams 3 which did not have a bed for my daughter and was close to the road so it would have been very noisy at night.

Only downside were the noise from the street and in the hotel itself which could be heard because auf thin walls.

The windows are all double glazed so despite facing the road we heard no street noise.

but we rarely turned it on even with the window shut to block out the street noise.

Joseph offers excellent motor bike tours around Dalat and the surrounding countryside !

Mrs Dong and all the staff were so lovely and helped to arrange a trekking tour for us which was difficult given the period of Tet.

but this hotel was recommended by our tour company so we gave it a try.

Totally recommend the hotel and the tour.

We could not have found such a trip looking at a tour operator shop.

Mrs Dung is always available to make your stay special, from arranging transfers, arranging easy rider motorbike tours, cooking breakfast, doing washing and greeting you on every return with a smile and personal chat.

She arranged a city and a countryside tour with a fantastic guide, Joseph, who spoke excellent English and was a wealth of information on Vietnam's history as well as it's political and religious history.

June will arrange anything you need, tours and transfers.

The whole 4 days including accommodation, breakfast, day tours and flights to Hue, cost us less than $550AU!

Always there day and night,  always smiling, always ready with advice and help with transfers and tours.

The owner speaks good english and was helpful in arranging to be picked up for tours.

They were very helpful and recommended the canyoning tour with phat tire ventures (including 10% off) which was a brilliant tour.

The staff was extremely friendly and helped me with local food and sightseeing options.

Also the hotel recommended we contact Mr. Joseph as a tour guide and motorcycle driver.

The rooms are large, comfortable and air conditioned, the breakfast is the best in Vietnam, and Ms. Dung and her staff are informative and helpful with whatever you need, be it transfers to/from the airport, tours, bus arrangements, airline tickets, changing dollars to dong, etc.

We have stayed at the dreams hotels on many occasions ,Mrs Dung is the perfect host and will help you with anything, the rooms are good, the prices are good, my no1 place to stay in Dalat, Get Mrs Dung to arrange a tour of the area, either on motorbike, or in a vehicle if there is a few of you

Service was great and they recommended great tour options.

Although the street out front is busy and noisy, the double glazed windows kept out the noise.

but when you shut the windows the noise is not a problem at all.

but was undisturbed as the windows were double glazed.

Windows effectively deal with traffic noise, there was even a bath!

I stayed in a superior double with street view to start and also a room with no real window after extending for three nights.

Even with the double pane window, you can still hear the noise.

Window looks into a closet so not much light.

The curtains are not all that good : part of them collapsed suddenly on my final night.

Traveling SE Asia , many rooms have no window.

30$ for a room without window to the exterior (just a ventilation shaft) is not an honest price in Dalat.

but we had breakfast which was impressing and a good selection of Vietnamese and western typical breakfast .

The room itself has a nice rustic feel and the breakfast was OK. Ok coffee

Our 3rd pre-Christmas there and love sitting among the pines eating breakfast.

Restaurant: we had lunch, breakfast, and New Years dinner at the restaurant.

We also had the pleasure to meet the Executive Chef who is providing us always a wonderful breakfast spread with the freshest ingredients Da Lat has to offer.

The common areas are equisite; and when there are enough residents, the breakfast buffet is magnificent.

The breakfast was plentiful and lots of choices and the staff were very attentive.

The lunch served to us after our mêting was quite delicious.

The food is very good ( I love the breakfast as it is very tasting and healthy ).

The dinner and breakfast offerings were delicious, healthy and plentiful, with lots of choices both Vietnamese and western.

Chef Dinh Nguyen customized breakfast to our kids' taste everyday!

The villa was very French, the food was delicious, the went out of their way to welcome me and make me feel special! Thanks.

The breakfast buffet is a bit underwhelming and does not do justice to the great food one can have for lunch, snacks or dinner.

The restaurant offers reasonable value and wide options for lunch and dinner, as does the breakfast.

The breakfast was a good selection of vietnamese food and western food.

We were looking forward to breakfast and dinner every day because The food is very nice there.

Very few mosquitoes in the evening, since it was quite cold during the night with our heater on.

You definitely want to want to wear slippers on the cold floors.

At night on the second day we called for a cart to pick us up as it was cold and raining.After 20 minutes we decided to climb up the slope by ourselves as no one showed up.The front desk people had no feeling when I mentioned the issue.

However only heating in dining room is a large open fire which was not lit when we were there so it was very cold - temp drops to below 10C at night.

Our hot water also mysteriously vanished when we got up at 5am to leave for Danang (cold shower, not so great!).

When we arrived we were cold, wet & tired.

It was a real cold windy day & their reception is in the open air.

but they should make clear it can be very cold and very wet.

Unfortunately it was a little too cold for us to swim

From the second night: We moved to another room on the first floor which has no privacy when the curtains are open.The heater was broken so the room was cold and damp.

After escaping the cold war in Nha Trang we were excited about some luxury in a hillside retreat surrounded by quaint Vietnam culture.

The place is cold at night around 14-16c temp.

Bring warm sweater and long pants, it can get cold at night!

It was too cold and rainy to use the swimming pool.

It gets pretty cold at night in Dalat, so the rooms come with heaters.

To continue the whingeing, our room lacked proper lighting, so we spent 2 cold, dark nights.

Lacking of facilities makes the room quite cold.

We were put into a very big and cold villa studio.

The landscaping is lovely, with access to the kitchen gardens for the restaurant and there was a pretty patio with table and chairs behind our villa for relaxing with a bottle of wine and friends.

The hotel is a series French style villas in a spacious garden setting.

All wooden houses had several rooms that are well equipped with garden view.

Ana Mandara Villas is beautiful, green gardens and pine trees everywhere and the different villas are nestled and scattered around the gardens.

There were gardens around and each villa had its own architecture that brought me different feelings.

The bar is cozy and quiet, the restaurant so cozy and romantic, lots of places to get peace and quiet alone beautifully maintained gardens with gorgeous flowers.

The beautiful lush gardens, the trees and the warmed pool are all exquisite, especially for our children.

Surrounding garden was beautiful with a lot of benches for sitting.

Beautifully set in lush gardens at the edge of Da Lat.

Beautiful gardens, pine trees, allotments growing fruit & veg that supply the excellent restaurant.

The grounds are spectacular - fresh herb and vegetable gardens and a lovely onsite restaurant with great Dalat wines and a huge menu of eastern and western offerings.

but sitting instead outside by the gardens was lovely.

Beautiful restored 1920 colonial French villas, our room was a delight with four poster bed and claw foot bath, with a lovely balcony overlooking the gardens.

Set among herb and fruit gardens with spectacular rooms in the old french chalet style.We loved it and will visit again.

The food was excellent - lots of fresh vegetables from their organic garden added to the Asian-fusion type meals.

Ana Mandara is a relaxed resort with nice gardens and friendly staff.

I love everything here including the vegetable garden, the sightseeing and fresh food.

The resort grounds cover a huge area and when we took a walk inside the resort, we found a self-sustaining veggie garden and walking paths.

I appreciate the effort to invest and maintain ancient architecture, buildings and nice garden in a large area.

Grounds: beautiful property and a great escape from the city life surrounded by pine trees

The grounds are Beautiful and the 
area is very quite and less than 5 minute from town.

We were in villa 8 on the ground floor, so we didn’t have any view

The villas were charming, the grounds peaceful, and we were pleasantly surprised how great the hotel was with our kids.

Our villa suite was huge, and the views of the hotel grounds and hills of Dalat were lovely.

We only paid £80 per night which for the size of the room, the pool and the grounds was very reasonable.

The grounds and buildings are absolutely beautiful and it was great to be slightly outside of the bustling city, with wonderful views of downtown (taxis are cheap and always available on site).

Lovely villas situated in beautiful grounds around 1.5km from the centre of town.

I loved the beautiful and serene hotel ground with its lovely villas.

The setting in the grounds of dozens of old French colonial villas is perfect.

We had such a good time with our 14-month old exploring the grounds of the resort and having most meals in the hotel restaurant (which served very good food).

The grounds of the resort are beautiful and the staff is warm , friendly and efficient.

Large grounds to stroll in and not too far to walk to city centre or a cheap cab ride.

The hotel has a stunning pool and lovely grounds.

While the city is just outside, once on the grounds this is what I expected of an historic highlands town.

The grounds were incredible and the full day tour we booked through the hotel was so so much fun.

Beautiful grounds and outdoor pool very nice.

A peaceful hill location with many big pine trees, chill weather, good outdoor warm swimming pool, vintage villas, good food!

You can hop a taxi for a short $2.00 ride to the heart of Da Lat spend time exploring and return to the quiet peaceful Ana Mandara.

My visit to Ana Mandara was peaceful and nourishing!

We also tried the spa which was relaxing.

Staff are very welcoming and we felt an instant sense of relaxation when we got here.

We found the property to be about the most peaceful anywhere we stayed during four weeks of travel in Vietnam,

The food in the restaurant was lovely & the spa was nice & relaxing.

This was a peaceful place with healthy air.

Having breakfast outside was very relaxing with fresh air and garden view overlooking the scenery of Dalat city.

We tried to book for 2 nights a Highland Retreat Package for 2 nights, my son's birthday coming up.

Dalat way of life is definitely very relaxed.

Nothing particularly fancy or upscale here,,,,,just a peaceful setting with the basic resort amenities: spa, pool, restaurant, walking paths, etc.

All that said, we had a very relaxing stay at Ana Mandara and were very sad to leave.

The resort is just heaven - peaceful and tranquil with happy little birdies singing everywhere.

The room was old, the furniture smelled like mold and the worst thing was our room was next to the staff room so every 5-6 am in the morning there would be a truck and some staff making a lot of noise picking up stuff in that room.

There was no outside seating and the room was musky and dark.

but a little musty smelling (might have been climate-related).

Nothing seems too much: keeping the restaurant open because we checked in quite late or sending someone to buy cigarettes outside as they don’t sell them at the hotel.

The smoke from the fire and the noise made for an uncomfortable night.

There was rather a whiff of old building/damp/mould in our rooms and evidence of some penetrating  damp in the walls and ceilings,

House keeping clean your room twice a day and they offer scents for your sheets and have a range of pillows you can change if you are uncomfortable.

but the smell of mildew was pretty overwhelming.

The only suggestion is that the toilets should have an extractor fan as smells lingered on after a visit!

And the pillow scent became a secret that was buried deep inside Villa # 20 as soon as we left.

They did a poor job clearing up the debris causing a small cut on the occupant.

If it's not sunny, room will have a muddy smell.

Seeing people spit on the floor and smoking in the breakfast area was a disgrace.

Our room had black molds around the shower.
