Nothing - it was amazing

Such an amazing stay at Tam Tinh Vien. The owners are amazing, kind people. Rooms are simple but have everything you need and are comfortable. Bikes available to cycle into the city or surrounding areas. Breakfast was different every day and always delicious. Thank you so much! Can’t recommend enough !

This is a magical place to stay just outside the centre of Hue. John, Thuy and the children were wonderful. We ate with the children on our first night which is offered free of charge and then sat and played cards with some of them. Breakfast was delicious too. John was so helpful in giving us advice on what to do and where to go in Hue and even walked us around the little village one evening.

Nothing I didn’t like!

The place is great!! John and Thuy go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home! And the work with the children is beautiful. I had such a great experience staying with them. I feel I left having made friends as well. I will definitely be back there whenever I’m back in Vietnam. I wholeheartedly recommend it!! 💜🙏

Leaving, wish we had stayed longer.

This was an amazing few days. Our hosts were so welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly. The children were great, lovely and busy. Would highly recommend a few days here, very peaceful and close to visit everything in Hue. Breakfast was a good start to our day.

Exceptional breakfast, location, hospitality. Stayed only for one night due to time restrictions but wish I could have stayed longer. Incredible hosting by Jean and his wife (whom sadly I did not speak to more but she made an incredible breakfast). A multilingual, multicultural family run orphanage with individual pods for travellers to stay in. Strong WiFi, super clean, aircon, water dispensers and coffee/ tea facilities. Nothing else I could have asked for.

Away from the noise of the city, and a delight to meet the beautiful children at the adjoining orphanage. Excellent breakfast. Great spot for riverside yoga.

The owners run this business in order to take care of more than 20 orphaned children. The kids get to have a place to call home and to go to school.

Everything in the property was clean and lovely, close to little shop and market to buy food, you got pharmacy in case of need.

Great location, away from the town center but well worth it as it allows you to escape from the business if the town. The owners are super friendly, a pool ok knowledge about Vietnam, its culture and inhabitants, and always ready for a chat! Thank you!

We really didn’t have any complaints.

Jean our host was so accommodating and the property is lovely- we enjoyed the gardens, the koi pond. Where we were served breakfast as well as our place with canopy bed were both quite romantic and atmospheric. That they care for babies and children is very touching. We left extra money for them.

Amazing place to stay. Our family loved our stay at Tam Tinh Homestay. We spent a lot of time over at the orphanage and our kids lo loved playing bandminton with the beautiful children. Our room was very spacious and comfortable. The hosts are very friendly and helpful.

The room (tent) might be a bit small for 2 people.

Thw owner of the place is very nice and helpful. He cooked dinner for me and went with me to a restaurant to translate. The place is a bit far from the city, but you can take a bike or motobike to the city.

So different to anything we have ever stayed in! The owner was so friendly and helpful! The room itself is stunning and unique. There are cute little pets on site along with the orphanage too, truly one off experience. Would absolutely recommend!

Nice location. More than friendly owner (very appreciated explanations about culture, habits and local religions. They are doing a very impressive job with children.

Nothing!!

We stayed in a gorgeous traditional house, extremely spacious and comfortable. The homestay is linked to an orphanage accomodating more than 40 kids ranging from babies a few days old to young university students in their early twenties. The owners, Jean and his wife do a wonderful job with the orphanage and the management of the homestay. They are very attentive and make their guests feel special. Jean is a great source of information, after spending over 24 years in Vietnam. An unforgettable stay!

Nothing is dislikeable about this place. It's a gold mine for anyone who wants to understand better the country.

This is the best stop we had so far in Vietnam, highly recommend this little gem. The owners are beautiful people, incredibly kind, helpful and knowledgeable. We were here to visit and try typical Vietnamese food and we couldn't get better recommendations. The kids are little angels, incredibly sweet and funny, it was an utterly heartwarming experience and my only regret is that we could not stay longer. Absolutely recommend this to anyone who loves history and is truly interested in Vietnamese culture. We will come back!!!

None.

Our rooms were like tents, it was fun to stay in them. Breakfast was local and delicious. The host was great and knowledgeable. He gave us practical tourist advice. Besides these good points, your stay can help the orphanage at this villa.

This homestay is quite special as it belongs to an orphanage. French-Spanish Jean and his wife run both for a long time. It is a pleasure to see how the children seem to enjoy this place, and to contribute through paying for the rent. It is a quiet and pleasant homestay near a river and Buddhist temple. Rooms are nice and price for value is very good. You can choose between European and Vietnamese breakfast, both quite good. Jean and his wife like to discuss with their guests and will give you a lot of information about Hue and Vietnam. Spend some time there, you will not forget it!

Very friendly host. Great food and service and very nice and clean location. A excellent place to stay during your visist in Hue.

Support from the host and the fact that the money goes to a very good case (orphans)

What an experience to participate at our small scale to the orphanage of Thuy and Jean. They are dedicated and to spend some nights at their homestay will help them for their daily needs but also projects for the kids. Short taxi ride to go to Hué city centre.
