Lucky Budda Inn Villa

Friendly staff. Ad said bar fridge, but none in the room. Pool was lovely on a hot day. Would stay again, however would like more frequent room cleans.

Jimmi var vores hotelmanager, som var sød, venlig, hjælpsom og smilende. Vi boede på Lucky Budda Inn i 3 dage, inden vi tog videre ned i Vietnam. Hotellet ligger for enden af en hyggelig gyde med kulørte lamper. Stort værelse med alt hvad du skal bruge, og meget børnevenligt.

I booked our stay at the Lucky Buddha based purely on the price and location. I didn't look at any of the reviews until after we were checked in, which may have been a mistake but I probably would have booked it anyway. We only needed a room for one night and we came to Vietnam for adventure, so why not? Cons first; -only 2 towels for 4 people (towels play a key role in this hotel, see some of the other reviews for context). -no soap in the bathroom, and shampoo that was so old it was thick and black like tar. -no water or drinks in the fridge (not a big deal, we had our own). -the duvets on the beds were comically small, basically a double bed duvet turned sideways to cover just the bottom half of the bed (again, not a big deal, it's hot here). -TV not working (I think this is known as a "first world problem", I was actually happy not to have the TV but my kids felt otherwise). Now for the pros; -Enormous room for the price. -AC in the room that worked, takes a while to cool down such a large room though. -Huge beds with memory foam mattress toppers over foam mattresses. I found the bed quite comfortable and slept pretty good. -Nice big bathroom with a huge soaker bathtub! This is very hard to find in Vietnam. We didn't use the pool. I saw the water being circulated the following morning so it's obviously being maintained, but I didn't smell any chlorine. We didn't have time anyway, no big loss. The heavy bag and wooden weapons in the lobby were a big question mark too...

Out of old quater

Unfortunately this property was not for us, the bathroom flooded each time we had a shower, the beds were rock hard, there was rubbish left in the room from previous occupants, mould on ceiling and walls, left after 1 night and moved to another hotel.

The so called hotel did match up to the description. The whole building was in a very poor state. The staff was kind at first but constantly on our case for us to book transportation, tours and in general sell stuff. When we didn’t the owners got more and more unpleasant and in the end, since we didn’t prolong our stay, trying to make us leave before checkout time. C/o was 12, already at 10 they started sending messages that it was time to checkout, then knocking at the door to take our bags down, in the end coming through our door uninvited with cleaning gear while we we’re still in the room and before 11. Then starting accusing us to have taken drinks from the minibar we haden’t touched. Very uncomfortable and insulting. I can not enough stress how I do NOT recommend anyone to stay there.

Rapport qualité / prix très correct. Jimmy et sa famille sont très serviables. Un peu loin du centre du vieux Hanoï mais ça se fait à pied, et c’est beaucoup plus calme.

It's an old French colonial building. The furnishings are also old and have that colonial charm. Definitely not for anyone looking for new/modern accommodations. The lobby included a huge golden Buddha statue, a decorated Christmas tree (in the middle of March), a karate dojo in one corner, and an adjacent indoor pool which didn't look clean to us. The refrigerator in our room leaked, and lots of areas seemed dirty and/or in need of maintenance. We only stayed there a short time as we only needed a place to rest between an overnight train and an evening flight. The host and staff were very friendly and helpful, and the cost was low. Overall I am happy with the choice and enjoyed the experience.

Nice

rooms full of MOLD, pool dirty, fake pictures on the listing and the staff very disrespectful and not helpful at all

Sehr nette und hilfsbereite Gastgeber, die gute Touren und Sehenswürdigkeiten empfehlen. Viele Touren kann man auch direkt bei der Unterkunft buchen, die öfter auch billiger sind als bei Reisebüros. Man kann hier auch kostenlos Fahrräder ausleihen und es wird auch jeden morgen gutes Frühstück angeboten. Die Lage ist sehr ruhig, aber trotzdem kommt man leicht in die Altstadt mit (Fahrrad/Bus/Taxi). Die Zimmer sind sauber und abends ist es nett auf der Terasse zu sitzen, sonst kann man auch einen entspannten Abend mit Netflix verbringen. Ich kann die Unterkunft nur empfehlen und man bekommt für den geringen Preis viel geboten.

Proximité avec le centre ville en Grab ou en bus (plus compliqué à pieds je n'ai donc pas testé), chambre spacieuse, bon accueil du personnel. Attention cependant, les excursions proposées sont plus chères que dans les agence dans le centre ville

ホテルが少し分かりにくかった

자동차도 들어갈수 없는 막다른 골목에 위치하고 지도에는 강을 건너는 다리옆인데 오토바이 와 자전거만 건널수 있다 시설은 열악하고 화장실 물도 안나왔다. 4박을 예약하였다가 1박만하고 나왔음

property is not accessible by taxis, Have to walk a long way to the public road to get taxi. Property is not open 24 hours.

Excellent Internet Wifi. Excellente, hot and plenty of pressure. Good Terrasse with nice view of the city and the historical bridge

This property is one of the best homestays. Across the river from hanoi old quarters . They provide breakfast as well. We took a 1day tour of ha long bay. With vegetarian food. It was well manager. The pick up was managed by them very close to the place of stay. They coordinated well with the staff and we did not face any trouble during the whole tour of 6 hrs excluding the commutation time from hanoi to halong and back. Will surely recommend that if you want to stay in a calm place a little away from the city noises and wilh a view of the river and long bein Bridge then this is the best place we have come across yet.

Jimmy is the best host you could ever ask for if you are new to the city.Super friendly,Super helpful. Helped us book our halong bay and sapa experiance and was all round welcoming. The hotel is slightly away from the Center but quite and grabs are super cheap 35k .It is only 5-10 drive to the Old Quarter and has a spectacular view of Long Bien Bridge and with it being so chaotic this for us was a good location. Rooms are very big and stunning, they have a rooftop which has great views and very chilled to relax at. The breakfast Washington delicious and we enjoyed Netflix on tv. It was a pleasure to have stayed with Jimmy and his family and would reccomend to anyone

룸이 아주 넓고 좋았어요. 근처에 대형 쇼핑몰이 있어서 편했어요. 일반 주거지 속에 있어서 골목 안으로 들어가기가 처음에는 불변할 수 있으나 현지인과 함께 할 수 있는 식당들이 있어서 오히려 좋았어요.

자전거나 바이크빌릴수있는건 좋으나 수건도 안갈아주는 무성의함이 있었음. 나머진 다 마음에 들었다.
