Thuy and her family is incredible. I was with my husband on honeymoon and Thuy made us an amazing trip. We were in all vietnam meeting its people. When we had any problem Thuy solved it quickly. Wonderful and magical trip. If we went there again we would choose thuy again! Thank you for everything!
We were glad to find spontanously this lovely homestay. It was the perfect entry to hanoi. Located in a quiet side street it is a welcome change to the hectic and crowded street life in the city. The room is sufficiently large and clean. We spent two nights with Thuy and her family, before we had to leave hanoi. Although we arrived very late in the evening, Thuy has taken at the same evening a lot of time to give us recommendations for the area around. While we had a coffee at the next morning, she assisted us to plan our activities in hanoi and around (cat ba, night train sapa, night bus ha giang). Overall we are still very happy that we stayed at ChezLinhLinh and looking forward to come back asap :) Thank you for the stay / time / help / ...
We only stayed for a few nights as we were limited for time but what a great place to stay. Thuy was always helpful and full of advice. She recommended some lovely eateries in line with what we wanted at that time. We had a family room and it was great, plenty of space, well made out with good air con. We were invited to eat dinner with the family one evening, unfortunately we already had plans. Breakfast was plenty, just as good as any of the other hotels that I stayed in in Vietnam with fresh juice, a variety of hot drinks, fruit, pastries, bread and eggs. I also tried some local fried rice which was very tasty. The downside is probably location. Most people will venture towards the Old Quarter which isn't really walking distance, especially not on a hot day. Taxi's are inexpensive but the one way system in Hanoi make them a bit of a pain! If we weren't so limited for time we would have probably tried the bus and just got taxi's home.…
We have stayed in Chezlinhlinh House on two occasions in December – at the beginning and at the end of our months long stay in Vietnam and we really loved it. Thuy was a wonderful host, the room is nice and cosy and generous breakfast is served in the family kitchen; you can also use the living room on the ground floor and flick through a number of interesting coffee-table books about Hanoi and vietnam. Thuy and her husband made sure that our stay was comfortable; Thuy even got up before 5am on the morning when we were leaving and prepared breakfast for our son while we were getting our stuff together. The neighbourhood is a quiet and calm place to go back to to after the craziness of Hanoi. We couldn’t believe how quiet it was at night – apart from an occasional dog barking… We enjoyed exploring narrow lanes which lead to the house and are bustling with life: shops, hairdressers, cafes, restaurants, nurseries…everything you need to live is there! A lovely lady just 100m from the house sells one of the best noodle soups we’ve had. The area feels very safe – we cycled to the train station in the dark at 5am and we hadn’t felt uneasy or threatened at all. The house is a close to Ho Chi Minh complex and still a walkable distance to the Old Quarter. We also used the local buses quite a lot as our 3 year old can only walk so far. If you are looking for a different, more personal experience then we would definitely recommend staying in Chezlinhlinh House.…
I stayed with my family of four at Chezlinhlinh for a few days in October while we explored Hanoi. Thuy was a great host and her family was lovely. Her older girls were the same age as mine, so it was fun to watch all the kids play. The family room was nice with one large bed for the parents and a connecting room with two single beds for the kids where the bathroom is also located. The suite was clean, the wifi was really good, and the air conditioning a godsend for people from Canada! Thuy was such a great host. She cooked us a traditional Vietnamese dinner for my husband's birthday, and even bought a birthday cake! The breakfasts were also good with fruit, yoghurt, fried egg, baguette - we were always full before venturing out for the day. Thuy helped us figure out where to go in Hanoi and marked everything on a map. We found it easy to get around with her instructions. She also recommended a nice local restaurant at the top of her lane just across the busy street that serves good steak and fries. Thuy helped us with trip planning for Sapa, Ha Long Bay, and Tam Coc, and all of her arrangements worked out well. Hanoi is a crazy city with all of the traffic, but is definitely something to see! Chezlinhlinh is not in the centre of the old quarter, but it is not far by taxi. I'm glad we spent our time at friendly Chezlinhlinh. It's much more personable and better value than a hotel.…
