Excellent location very close to the imperial palace . The room was part of a French colonial style mansion set in a large beautiful landscaped garden. We booked the family room even though there was only 2 of us. Good decision - the room was very comfortable and spacious with 3 balconies! There was a kitchen and living area downstairs for communal use. All fittings and fixtures were top quality. I do lots of house renovations and I was very impressed! The caretakers of the property were able to provide us with free bicycles to tour the local area and also rent us a scooter to explore further afield. I would definitely recommend this property.

Nothing to dislike.

The house and grounds were beautiful even out of season, hard for the pictures to do it justice. We were both warmly and attentatively cared for as well as left on our own which perfectly suited us. The family is really lovely. The rooms are in a separate house from the family house in large grounds. The room was really comfortable and outside space to use (when it's warmer). Plenty of places to eat and get coffee. Grabs were low cost and quick to arrive to move around further afield. We enjoyed a day on their (free) bicycles exploring the tombs that are on the combo citadel ticket. Note if you visit any tombs not part of the combo you might have the place to yourself! The local Korean CHOSUN-Tiệm ăn Hàn Quốc and Vietnamese Quán Mắm Huế restaurants are highly recommended.

The location really suited us but check what you are looking for. If you want to be in walking distance of the citadel yet away from the tourist areas this is great. You will meet few tourists here, no one will hassle you and need a translate app in some places for ordering food. A bit challenging if you want tourist convenience but perfect if you want to be in real Vietnam.

Everything was beautiful, clean and just amazing. The rooms were spacious and the sight from the balcony to the garden was so peaceful and cozy. The owner and the woman working there were super kind and we even had a kitchen to use. The location is perfect to explore the imperial city. We arrived with a baby and the beds were comfortable for us three to sleep in. I would love to come back there and can only recommend a stay. The most beautiful thing was maybe to wake up to the traditional singing from somewhere at dawn.

We loved everything really.

Beautiful big three story Vietnamese home with lounge and dining area and well equipped kitchen . Set in a lovely tree lined street within the old walled city . There are two rooms available upstairs we had the larger room with 2 beds (one king size, one queen ), really roomy with lovely timber doors and shutters opening onto balconies . The garden was amazing and the owner Dao and her husband were really lovely and friendly . There is a washing machine and clothes drying area on the third floor that guests can use . Ideal for families .

Although you can walk to the Imperial Citadel for us it was probably just a bit too far out . Breakfast wasn’t included and we didn’t cook ourselves . The eateries nearby were all local ones and we didn’t see any other tourists in that area . Would be great for people looking to self cater . The weather was so hot when we were there and we had two nights out of three when it rained so would have been more enjoyable in better weather when it would have been easier to get around .

Ciel homestay is located in the old town area. It has beautiful rooms and a big kitchen and sitting area where we could make our own food if we wanted. Our teens could even keep their chocolate cool in the fridge ;) The garden invites to sit down and enjoy or wonder around. The dogs are good and friendly housekeepers. We liked it very well to be away from the busy turist area on the other side of the river and mingle with the locals at night for dinner. The owners are very heart-warming and welcoming. We loved to be at Ciel! Highly recommend, when you are searching for a peacefull place in the middel of Hue town.

Amazingly beautifully restored property on a large garden grounds. Quiet street in the citadel but not too near Imperial City so took a Grab but you could walk it. Couple cute dogs on the premises too. Room was airy, newly redone and spotless. Comfy huge bed and even separate doors onto courtyard with chairs. Lots of hot water too and good AC. Owners very nice and friendly. I would stay again.

Payment in cash was a surprise. Not much nearby for eating so plan ahead.

Nice location with a local vibe! Also checked out the fitness center almost next to the property and the kids loved the indoor playground 10min walk from the place, nice way to end the day after Hue explorations.

It was next to impossible to find breakfast in proximity (Vietnamese coffee places around are great experience, but serve only coffee/drinks!). So plan in advance, especially when traveling with family.

Please choose this homestay if coming to Hue - you will remember the host for a very long time! She was the most kindhearted woman ever!! The room was very nice (with lots of storage). There was a kitchen available (and a big refrigerator) and washing facilities. Me and my boyfriend are very scared of spiders and when we had a gigantic spider in our bathroom we called the host and she removed it with no problem (our true hero!). On our last day she and another sweet woman prepared breakfast for us. We can’t say enough kind words about this place. We will return here if we ever go back to Hue.

The only problem we had here were the dogs. As it is a bigger property they of course need guard dogs but they bark a lot when other guests arrive home late in the evening. This was annoying since it disturbed our sleep but of course a bit out of their control. But the host’s kind soul truly made this a very tiny problem

Beautiful gardens and lovely clean rooms. We were looked after by a lovely lady who made sure we had everything we needed. Rooms were great with a shared kitchen and dining area. Water bottles were provided daily. The hosts went above and beyond on the day we checked out letting us leave our bags and making sure we were comfortable, even offering a place for us to shower, and use the bathroom, if we needed it. Our lovely host came out to see us off when we left, such a warm and welcoming lady ❤️.Highly recommend this homestay.

Nothing, it was great

The homestay is owned by a lovely elderly couple who are very concerned with the wellbeing of their guests. The location is also perfect in the center of Hue.

Be aware that there are two large but very friendly dogs living at the property, so avoid if you are afraid of dogs.
