This was our 2nd stay at Tonkin House during our recent trip. Nghia our host was incredibly generous and accommodating. We loved the location as it was away from the very touristy Old Quarter but still close enough to walk there and there was plenty of great eating options, cafes and the "locals" park which is worth going to early morning to witness the hive of activites taking place. The accommodation had all the facilities we needed and was very comfortable with plenty of space including a kitchen and sitting area downstairs. It has an old French colonial charm to it and was so much nicer than staying in a hotel. We feel lucky to have discovered Tonkin House for our Hanoi stay!

The owner was so kind and let us leave our stuff while we went away for a night to Halong Bay and all of our last day when we had a late flight. They also arranged our airport transfer. This was our favourite of all the places we stayed and we had the best nights sleep

Great location, quiet and slightly out of the centre but quick to reach the old quarter.

Beautiful property in a quieter area of Hanoi but still within easy distance of the Old Quarter with all it's madness. Nghia was a fantastic host, very accommodating and quick to answer any questions I had via WhatsApp and just a nice person to talk to - great communication.

My room was beautiful, the kitchen had everything that I needed, the rooftop had wonderful view. The Indochine vibe was so charming. It was a perfect place to spent your vacation. I will definitely come back ♥️

the house is a beautiful oasis from the wild streets of Hanoi. it is well located - close to the old quarter, but not right in the thick of things. there is a nice park nearby, as well. the rooms were comfortable and well appointed. the very best thing about Tonkin House, however, it Kate, the absolutely wonderful hostess. she went above and beyond to ensure that we had a lovely stay and her recommendations about all things Ha Noi were spot on!

No shower and bath is incredibly deep, but short

Host make stay so welcome, that it's not compare to anything. Most kind person I ever saw. Apartment and house are lovely, the bath is gorgeous. Not exactly touristic location, but in the middle of all interesting spots

I would appreciate if they could think a way to climb the tub in more safety way , since the tub is thick and high. maybe a handle/ grab bar to help maintaining the balance while standing or maneuvering.

Everything really. Honestly , I never experienced this level of hospitality in HN before. I really enjoyed the effort that they put in here , even they put the candle/incense on before I entered the room. Kate was really really helpful and she made sure I was content with everything with her effortless communication. I also enjoyed the conversation about the history of this house too. well done, Kate! This place is really memorable. it's situated in a busy street , few steps away from cool bakeries and coffee shops. but You won't hear a thing from the street in this room. The whole house is well taken care of and clean. I love everything that I saw from their common areas like the hallway , the seating area until their dining and kitchen. Everything is meticulously decorated. I also admire the room that I stayed in. it's using wabi-sabi concept and I think they succeed it. It's well lit in every corner that made me feel at ease right away with perfect selection of warm material and color. The patio was nice and clean as well.

it was an amazing stay in the house, as it could be! modern and furnished with comfortable bed. in the kitchen downstairs you could use the equipment and even cook yourself a quick breakfast I had the feeling of being at home. the house itself is beautiful, and filled with beautiful wooden furniture the house is located in a convenient quarter and close to attractions

All good

I loved to be a bit outside of the turistic area, but just 20 minutes walking from it. More autentic experience. Kate is the manager and she is just an amazing person an extremely helpful. She made my days at Hanoi! I booked the room at the rooft top. The house is beautiful, with a nice kitchen that you can use. One of my best meal in Hanoi was really close by.

The room was very well decorated, beautiful and clean. The hostess was very kind and willing to help. We had a lot of information prior to our arrival. We had a really nice stay!

Nothing at all! Just a small note to say that those with accessibility issues (e.g. requiring a wheelchair) may have trouble with this accommodation, as there is no elevator and quite a few stairs.

Kate was a truly amazing host! She personally welcomed us upon our (quite late) arrival and had helpfully prepared a few snacks for us. She took the time to show us all of the facilities, suggested really nice places in the neighbourhood to visit, and even showed a lot of flexibility in allowing us to extend our stay until our evening departure. Furthermore, the room and facilities were beautiful -- great design, very clean and comfortable.

Beautifully designed, chic colonial home with extremely helpful, warm, welcoming and attentive staff. I thought it would feel far from the sites but I loved this neighborhood more than the Old Quarter!

What a phenomenal place. From the complimentary pick up from the airport to the stylish interior to the extremely helpful staff, everything here was top class. I have stayed in a lot of hotels in my life and will forever remember this one as one of the best!

I felt like I was at home in a beautiful, peaceful and stylish oasis with a bike at my disposal to explore and all the help I needed whilst having all my privacy too. An unforgettable holiday for all the right reasons
