Hotel in zona Suối Nóng, Phong Son

Immerso nel verde di un giardino in festa, dove i colori esplodono e i profumi della natura sono discrete comp****, il lodge é un vero e proprio “buen retiro”. Distante circa quindici minuti da Hué, non è raggiungibile a piedi: per gli spostamenti è necessario farsi chiamare un taxi (costo di circa 5 euro per corsa), non disponendo di una navetta privata. È il prezzo da pagare per un tuffo in piscina in mezzo al verde, per cercare riposo e pace, per leggere un libro dopo una giornata di turismo impazzito ascoltando il rumore dei grilli (confidando nel silenzio dei vicini di camera). Colazione di cucina locale abbondante ma non esagerata, di buona qualità. Wi-Fi ben funzionante negli appartamenti. Stanze pulite, confortevoli, pur se ecosostenibili. Personale attento.

A number of reviews have commented on the location of this resort. It is located beside the river, about 5km from Hue. At the time of our visit (late April 2024) there was road work on the last couple of km’s of the road before the resort. We were told this should be finished within the next few months. However we had drivers pick us up and drop us off without incident. We also saw other guests using taxis, and we had no problems getting Grab cars to collect us and take us back (for a total cost of less than US$10 for the 2 trips). The shuttle referred to on the hotel website is not currently operating, but we did not see access as an issue. As an upside of the location it was very peaceful at night (our previous stop had been at Hoi An where the river resort we stayed at in the centre had been quite noisy at night.) Some comments have also been made on the gardens being over grown and the resort being run down. We did not see it this way. The gardens are not formal – they include fruit trees which are being farmed for their fruit – but they were being actively maintained. The pool is very nice. (See photos) The room was comfortable and clean and tidy with excellent air conditioning. The bed was very hard and some more storage space in the room would be good. The staff were all friendly and very eager to help with things like organising transport and suggesting places for meals. The resort was not very busy at the time of our stay. As a result, while they had the breakfast buffet operating on our first morning (a weekend), on week days the routine was to collect a form from reception to select your breakfast and time, and drop it back to reception the night before – it was then served in the restaurant at the time chosen. This seemed to work well. We ate in the restaurant the first night, and the food was good, though we were the only people in the room. Most guests seem to opt to get transport into Hue-proper for dinner, where there are lots of great options for a meal. All in all a very pleasant, comfortable and quiet stay.

Ancient Hue Gardens is the most picturesque boutique hotels I stayed at in Vietnam. The rooms are in a historical style with well appointed furniture and settings but with modern conveniences like outlets and TV with streaming and a classy bathroom suite. It's not only Instagram worthy but also a great boutique hotel to stay at on its own merits. The staff friendliness far exceeded any other hotel I stayed at. For example, our check in host showed us around the entire room and reach amenity and when we wanted to book the spa he personally came to our suite to ask our time preference and make the booking for us. The food is excellent with a variety of choices. In fact, this property became initially known for its food, both French and Vietnamese traditional, even though the villas are such a unique find. It's definitely the perfect vibe if you come to Hue for the historical scenery and sites and the unique food of the region. Cleanliness was perfect with turndown service at night. I would make Hue a permanent fixture in my future Vietnam trips for this hotel alone.

What an amazing place. Lots of history in the building itself, takes 10 minutes to read about it on arrival. Beautiful building, decor and outside facilities. We chilled here for a few days between Hoi An and Hanoi. Right on the doorstep of the Citadel which is the main place to visit. Mega cheap cab to town for wonderful food and beer. The Oriental Treatment in the spa is one of the best massages I have ever had. We’ve loved it here. Staff are so very helpful. It pays to be kind here so be patient if something isn’t quite up to YOUR standard. Breakfast was great, just ask for eggs!

Un hotel moderno, ben designato, con un forte nodo dove si trova. Abbiamo visitato il spa, mangiato nel ristorante diverse volte. Il mio unico commento non positivo è un lieve mancato processo e coerenza. Il personale era carino e attento, ma il processo di esperienza del bagno ha bisogno di un po' di aggravamento, la coerenza della presentazione del drink e della tavola nella sala da pranzo è un po' pericoloso e la custodia è anche un po' incoerente. Le piccole cose, ma solo un po' al livello della proprietà.

Ottimo! Questo hotel accogliente, tranquillo e romantico, in stile coloniale, è un villaggio d'arte deco. Le camere, le bagni e i mobili sono finiti con le caratteristiche più elevate e molto comodamente. Mi sono trattato in un doppio superiore con balcone e sono stato aggiornato in una suite. Per cambiare le loro immagini sono vere alla realtà! Il personale è molto amichevole e utile. Anna, il giorno della ricevitrice, ha organizzato un conducente con una macchina comoda per portarmi intorno ai sei mausolei imperiali e alla mia porta di trasferimento limo a Danang per un prezzo molto ragionevole.

A beautiful and stylish resort nested in a lush tropical setting in a quiet and authentic neighborhood just outside Hue. The very efficient, polite and friendly staff provide a perfect service. Comfortable, spacious and very pleasant rooms. Plentiful, well attended breakfast with an very satisfying and complete choice of food options. Big, beautiful and very pleasant pool. The staff kindly but firmly make sure the rules are respected to keep the place quiet and pleasant for everybody. The complimentary 30 minutes spa therapy is a pleasant plus. Kindly upgrade on my second stay. Nothing to fault this lovely place really. Thank you Xin Chao for the kind supervision of my reservation and stay. Looking forward to my next stay at the wonderful Pilgrim Village.

L'hotel più bello di Hue! Molto comodi letti grandi e personale estremamente amichevole. Amiamo questo hotel. Miglior in Vietnam finora.

Fantastico soggiorno. Questo personale amichevole, posizione conveniente, camera pulita e grandi raccomandazioni per il tour della città. Abbiamo anche prenotato il bus con 4 fermate a Hội An e il barco per il tempio. Certamente vale la pena guardarla. Il pranzo era anche delizioso.Tornerebbe di nuovo.
