Youth Homestay Sapa

We had a great stay at the Youth Homestay. The room was spacious and cozy, with a spectacular view. We enjoyed the breakfast and the laundry service was very good as well. We should mention that it’s not your typical homestay, rather a hotel but that did not bother us at all. :) Would definitely come here again and recommend it.

The beds were really comfy Great view, especially with the morning buffalo Good TV Does get warm with heated air con Modern bathroom Decent breakfast selection Did let us check in at 10am with no fee as room was ready which was appreciated after a bad night the one before.

Wish Netflix / streaming was on TV no fireplace Bath does not heat due to not enough hot water Breakfast was cold by 9am Staleness implied food was used over a few days

This stay will live on in our memories for all the right reasons. A delightful week - from the enthusiastic welcome to the warm goodbye. Staff were simply delightful and a pleasure to interact with. Languages other than Vietnamese were not spoken by every staff member, but they could always find someone with good English. At check-in we were offered a choice of rooms. We decided on the smaller room with the slightly less expansive views (easier to heat and keep warm). This was located in their connected, sister property (Sapa Grand Hills Hotel Apartments) and so we didn’t actually stay in Youth Homestay Sapa, but did view the property we had booked (bigger room, wall to wall glass with great views). Bed was large and really comfortable; that’s a top quality mattress. Having a deep, spacious bathtub was so,so great. On a chilly morning in Sapa, you’ll be able to warm yourself to the core. And, it even comes with a view. A short, waffle-weave bathrobe was appreciated, as were the large dispenser bottles of body wash and shampoo. This hotel has been well built and quality craftsmanship and thoughful detail adds to the experience. It felt very luxurious in so many little ways. You get a feeling of Generosity (vs providing the bare minimum that the market will bear). Local Vietnamese travellers stay here (always a great sign) and the breakfast buffet offered many choices. We ate very well (and healthily). Quirky little sweet/dessert items even popped up on certain mornings. They delighted us and the children too. On the coldest of days, an open fire would be set up in the reception area and wonderful herbs and spices wafted about. Cleaning staff responded to the Do not Disturb and the Please Clean Room signs. No over-servicing was evident. What a pleasure. Can only recommend this fine place highly; and cross fingers that we get to visit again.

Room was big, and expensive, close to the city, kept our bags, and were helpful.

Breakfast for someone who is a vegetarian or vegan is really bad.

I liked the view and the room the most. Location is perfect too.

All was good

The room was spacious and had everything you need, even umbrellas.

Nothing.

Very good price, cosy room

Bath water was not warm enough
