De Hué

The space is really nice with great concept and pretty design related to Hue citadel architecture and modern art. The housekeeper - Minh is really caring and approachable. He's really responsive and proactive in providing us good advices for Hue traveling and also prepare great breakfast for us every morning. Breakfast options were great with Bun Bo Hue, Banh loc & banh nam (he said they're from the locals nearby) with fresh herbal water and coffee and all well served to us! Did not have much time to enjoy more experiences at the place (like cinema~) but definitely come back if we have chance! Location is not really far from the center if you rent a bike, I like exploring some kind of local vibe like this more than the busy streets in the center.

The architecture of the place is beautiful and the host was beyond friendly and helpful. We loved as well the Vietnamese breakfast served each morning, and the coffee they prepared was great too. It was very peaceful and looking at the garden from the bedroom was a great view to wake up to.

Since I didn't want to take a taxi, I used the airport shuttle service provided by the homestay. The car was clean, the driver was polite and punctual. Additionally, the homestay offers motorbike rentals, including both manual and automatic bikes, at reasonable prices — very convenient for exploring Hue. The homestay also helps arrange cultural experience tours and organized explorations of Hue. Thanks to this, I had a very interesting trip — not only visiting famous landmarks but also hearing many fascinating stories about Hue’s culture. A big plus of the homestay is the shared common room, which is perfect for doing yoga, watching movies, or holding small group meetings. I had a lovely evening there, watching a movie with others in a cozy atmosphere.

Even though I only stayed in Hue for one day, I had some truly delightful experiences. Besides the accommodation, the team at De Hué helped me engage in local activities: cycling around the village, visiting a garden house, painting, swimming and paddleboarding on the Perfume River, having dinner at a garden house, and breakfast at a traditional bun bo restaurant. Everything was new and exciting to me. Thank you very much, Mr. Minh. The room was very tidy and beautiful, with a spacious, clean, and comfortable bed that provided me with a great night’s sleep. My room on the second floor had a view of the lush, green garden behind the property, which was very refreshing and airy.

The names of the rooms are inspired by the landmarks along the Perfume River in Hue: This evokes many stories related to Hue’s culture, which I enjoyed hearing passionately shared during conversations. The room we stayed in was named Chợ Dinh, and it overlooked a beautifully lush garden. There are many interesting tourist spots around the home: We were introduced to a bike tour (available for free at the home) that took us to nearby landmarks in one day. It included unique experiences such as visiting a garden house, a incense-making village, a temple, swimming and paddleboarding on the Perfume River, breakfast with charcoal-grilled beef noodles, and a delicious Hue-style lunch. The support services are always available and of high quality: We easily and safely arranged airport transfers and a bus to Hoi An.
