There are not a lot of choices for Westerners in Dien Bien Phu. A1 Hotel is a solid choice, though it's a bit rough around the edges. However, it's conveniently located next to the A1 battlefield, the Dien Bien Phu Museum, the Cemetary, and about 20 minutes from the Command Bunker. I wouldn't visit the restaurant next to the Hotel. Although it's a bit spartanesque, the hotel was better than I expected.

Interestingly large hotel staff have very limited English but helpful. Well located for the tourist attractions. However the hotel rooms had not seen a vacuum before we checked in. (we had 2 rooms). Expect the beds to be type Vietnamese. (Quite hard).
Also had a massage here which was a little personal and little consideration for our dignity!

The beds are like cement slabs. It’s clean enough but not brilliant, it was adequate for a small town hotel, though having said that I lost my glasses in a taxi and the hotel staff got them back for me I was delighted at that service.
