If you can afford it (or find a special like we did) treat yourself to this gorgeous hotel. It truly is sublime, from the wonderful art deco architecture, the manicured park-like grounds, the huge salt water swimming pool, to the furnishings and paintings. The attention to art deco detail is exquisite and worth a visit for that alone. The staff... More

Stayed 2 nights at this hotel during a 16 day travelling holiday in Vietnam. Best thing the hotel has is undoubtably the pool. Fantastic after sight-seeing at the tombs, pagodas and citadel.... It is large, a very nice temperature, lots of sunbeds.... And as you arrive you recieve a welcome drink and small fruit salad. Other notable features... Pool table... More

We loved pretty much everything about La Residence - service, food, room (513), general atmosphere, and even the pool table in the lounge area! Our only difficulty came when checking out. It was difficult to make sense of what had happened as the staff didn't speak good enough English, but all was resolved in the end. All in all, a... More

Loved this hotel. We had a room overlooking the River with a lovely balcony. The balcony was great for drying washing but too hot for sitting on while we were there. The pool was lovely and a much better temperature than other pools we had experienced as they were all too warm. Breakfasts were ok but not fantastic. Loved the... More

After travelling around North Vietnam at break-neck speed for two weeks and spending the night before on the sleeper train from Hanoi, arriving at La Residence was like stepping into an oasis. The hotel is beautiful, well maintained and the staff are warm and friendly. The pool area is in manicured grounds over-looking the Perfume River and the hotel is... More

Words cannot describe what a fantastic time we spent at La Residence. Although the hotel is decorated in a 1930s style it isn't old and stuffy at all. The size of the hotel (only 122 rooms) makes it feel small and intimate yet with all the special touches that you expect from a five star hotel. Originally booked into a... More

If you end up here, you'll stay in Hue longer because the hotel is so damn lovely. The rooms are immaculately clean and bright, the beds are comfortable. The grounds are very well maintained and gorgeous, the pool will keep you hooked all day. Even the music here is just genius. The staff are exceptional, very professional, and you really... More

We didn't stay at the hotel but dropped by for lunch during our day trip from Danang. We had Vietnamese food at the Le Parfum. For the price it wasn't the best but we're not complaining. The deco was lovely and the staff were attentive. It exudes colonial charm on the inside and serene surroundings on the outside. I was... More

We stayed here for two nights in may. The highlights were: - the beautiful building and grounds - the sous chef Ian who was just fabulous (gave us recommendations, always came to talk to us even when he was busy, made a mean "hue pho", and is a great asset to the hotel) However, with the exception of Ian, the...
