This hotel is beyond what I expected. I have so many good things to say about my experience and stay. In summation I will say that if I give a million stars that I would. Excellent place to book for your time in Vietnam.

excellent staff, beatiful rooms and facilities - this place is definitely worth a revisit. some minor nitpicks: the welcome fruit (orange) turned out not to be fresh and a bit too ripe, the safe was confusing to use, and only later did we know that motor bikes were available for rent. given that they are farther away from city center they should make this known when guests first arrive

This private tour to Hue was excellent and exactly as described. We visited all the highlights on the itinerary, including the Imperial Citadel, Thien Mu Pagoda, Khai Dinh Tomb, and Tu Duc Tomb. The guide shared many interesting historical facts and gave us enough time to explore each place while keeping the day well organized. Typical Hue itineraries include these major imperial landmarks. The drive was comfortable and efficient, and being on a private tour made a huge difference. We were able to move quickly between attractions, avoid unnecessary waiting, and focus on the most interesting parts of each site. Unlike some other popular destinations, Hue didn’t feel overwhelmingly crowded, which made the experience even more enjoyable. Lunch was served at a quiet, peaceful restaurant, and the food was delicious. We left at 8:00 AM as scheduled and returned around 5:00 PM, exactly as advertised. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish, and we were very happy with the experience.

Had an amazing day tour to Hue exploring Vietnam's historical heritage! This was by far the best handled guided tour I've taken. Our guide, Tâm, messaged the pickup time in advance and met me right at the hotel entrance. We took the tunnel instead of the Hai Van Pass, but Tâm gave us a great history overview along the way, including a nice coffee break at a lagoon. The Highlights: Khai Dinh Tomb: Incredibly beautiful and unique architecture. Lunch: A wonderful group meal at a lovely hotel. Tâm perfectly handled my dietary restrictions. Thien Mu Pagoda: Stunning views and even better architecture. The Imperial Citadel: Amazing!! I’ve never seen such a beautifully restored palace. It was worth every bit of the heat. Quick Tip: The 2.5-hour drive is very comfortable and great for a nap. Definitely bring a hat and stay hydrated, as walking around the sites gets really hot. Overall, an incredible experience!

Literally could not recommend this tour highly enough. Huda was simply the BEST!! Not only was he extremely kind, friendly and approachable, but he was also genuinely such an incredible guide and speaker. He delivered such interesting tidbits of facts throughout the day without ever making it seem like a lecture the way it is in some group tours. He spoke succinctly and I feel like he gave us SUCH a good overview of Vietnamese monarchy and Hue's history. He was incredibly knowledgable! Next I want to highlight how the tour was structured. Everything was so smooth - there were plenty of breaks factored into the day since it was hot and involved a fair bit of walking, but not too much. We were never rushed, but the stops at each sight never felt too long either. I felt it was perfectly planned at each stop. The van was SO comfortable, clean and air conditioned. Shoutout to the driver too! And I just want to say - THE LUNCH THAT WAS INCLUDED WAS ONE OF THE BEST MEALS OF MY LIFE!

We had a great time with our Hue Imperial Discovery tour with our tour guide Kevin. Kevin, was very knowledgeable about Vietnam's history and he is also funny so the we never got bored during our whole trip. We also enjoyed our lunch and we love the authentic vietnamese foods. Kevin made sure that all our needs were catered well. It was a funtastic experience.
