Staying with Pe and his lovely family on their farm/homestay was one of the best and most authentic experiences in Vietnam for us. They were very kind and you get to know them and their culture over dinner. The food was good, fresh and there was always plenty for everyone. We stayed 4 nights and loved every second of it. The trekking we did with them was beautiful as well.

Featuring a fitness centre, Duc Huy Grand Hotel is located in Lao Cai, 100 metres from Duc Huy Plaza. Featuring a garden, the 4-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom. American, Chinese and Asian dishes are served at the on-site restaurant.

The hotel staff, especially one woman in particular who could speak English, helped us a lot and were always friendly and polite. They even called the bus driver for the van we had arranged to pick us up at a nearby station instead of us having to travel an hour to get to where the original pick-up was in Sapa. We were frazzled after crossing the border from China so was relieved this hotel was a ten-minute drive from the border.

    The accommodation is at the top of a small hill. From there you have a beautiful view at the rice fields. I did two small hikes, one I did through the rice fields and the other one through a bamboo Forest and to the CatCat Village. For dinner you can join the Family at the Family Dinner.

    It is really rustic. But if you don’t mind what makes this stay particularly great is the very friendly family as well as the peaceful location. The brothers are great guides, too. If you’ve seen all the rice terraces and don’t mind a bit of sweat I highly recommend a guided hike in the forest, up the other side of the valley. This is how I pictured Vietnam before I went there (apart from the rice fields).

    Simple, authentic, quiet accommodation at a family's home. We stayed in the bungalow, it was big enough, the bed was comfortable, there was cold shower inside and warm shower outside in another building. Breakfast was good with pancakes, bananas, chocolate syrup, honey. The first day's coffee was very good.

    Our stay at Sapa Hillcrest Homestay was perfect. Pe Thao and his family welcomed us with open arms in their farm. We could really feel as part of the family. Stay here if you want to live an authentic Vietnamese experience in Sapa. The view is incredible. Pe Thao can help you for anything (taxi, hiking tour …) You can go there by walk is you are a bit sportive 😉 (1h from Sapa). Thanks !

    A real family atmosphere with kids playing around and cute animals (especially the dogs). The owners are super friendly and helpful with planning hikes. Dinner is (if you want) with the whole family and super delicious. Also the breakfast is absolutely recommended. Location is quite remote but scenic in the hills with great views (even on fransipan).

    Amazing hosts, great family and super cute kids. The rooms are spacious and clean with a great rice field view. The heating blankets are a game changer! They keep you so warm even when it’s freezing! We also highly recommend the family dinner, we had a great time! The hosts also helped us book taxis and rent scooters for reasonable prices.

    A genuine family house, timber construction with new fittings and timber furniture. although bathrooms are, strictly speaking, shared they are just across the hallway, individual and private. sitting down with the family for an evening meal was very special and reading Vietnamese books with the children afterwards was heartwarming.
