Reviews & ratings
Boasting a good reputation among many trains operated on the same route, Fanxipan is one of the most popular choices of passengers when it comes to traveling to Sapa. As a luxurious train carrier, Fanxipan is not only fully-equipped with modern and comfort facilities but also positively reviewed by its customers thanks to excellent service and professional staffs. With the first and foremost priority is to satisfy passengers with high-standard services, Fanxipan Express has always played the leading position since it is launched in 2007.
Fanxipan Express consists of 4 carriages with the capacity of 56 berths. Not only do they offer normal 4-berth cabins but also VIP 2-berth cabins for couple or friends who value more privacy and space.
All cabins are wooden paneled, equipped with air-conditional and soft linens and basic necessities like individual reading light with the aim of making your stay the most enjoyable. Interior décor is also reasonably invested in as it demonstrates such an elegant style. The presence of large window allows passengers to be immersed in breathtaking view of the outside landscape. Though restaurant carriage is not available, snacks, drinks and hot instant noodle could be found at the mini-bar at the end of each carriage. Each carriage also includes one toilet at the end.
Fanxipan offers daily train from Hanoi to Lao Cai with departing time at 21:40 and arriving time at 05:25. For the reverse route, the journey lasts from 20:15 till 04:20.
SP1: Depart Hanoi - Laocai: (21:40 – 05:45)
SP2: Depart Laocai - Hanoi (20:35 - 4:45)
PROS
Fanxipan received many positive feedbacks from travelers with its efficient facilities and professional service at not so extravagant price. Passengers are also offered the chance to unwind with free tea and coffee at Fanxipan Office before departure and after arrival. This exclusive treatment is to ensure that passengers are fully charged for a long journey.
There is nothing much to complain about Fanxipan Express train services as it stands out with its high standard. From Lao Cai to Hanoi, the train departs quite early compared with other trains, and as a result it may not spare customers adequate time to have a proper dinner.

The service of Fanxipan Express Train was quite good. The train has its own waiting area for passengers. In this area, you can access to bathroom, shower, and a small restaurant with fee Wi-Fi. You can buy food -and drinks there. There is a Fanxipan guy who will take you to the right carriage.

Reading some horrible reviews about the cleanliness of some trains in Vietnam, however, I found Fanxipan Express and its cabin was pretty clean. The toilet was also clean at first, however, because of some other ill-mannered passengers, it was not good at the end. This was definitely not the train’s fault.

4 berths cabin was nice with 4 comfortable beds, pillows, lightweight quilts, and individual lights. Free hot drinks were free at the start and the finish of the journey. Each carriage has a toilet, a small wash basin, and a mirror at the end.

I would recommend this train to anyone planning to visit Sapa. The booking online is very easy. I booked through hanoisapatrain.com and feel satisfied with the booking procedure. Everything went conveniently and quickly. Fanxipan Express has a waiting room near the train station in Hanoi which is quite comfortable for waiting the train.
