Review: The price is quite cheap compared the other homestay around the area
Positive points: Very nice host. Great breakfast and dinner.
Negative points: Recommend to arrive before it gets dark
Review: Friendly and very kind hosts. Strongly recommend here
Positive points: Very very friedly people. The 2 Km out of town are really worth it. Now they even have a pool fed with constantly flowing fresh water from springs. Amazing! Cold beer for Shop prices. I returned from my loop to stay there a second time.
Review: The bungalows are great on the cliff overlooking the river and the jungle. Beautiful location. Very sweet family who runs the place. The dinners are memorable! Beautiful walking/hiking/motorbiking up the mountain from the homestay.. Far from town. A motorbike would be helpful. Very hard to find automatic scooters to rent. There are plenty of semiautomatic motorcycles, but there is some stress about having a proper international drivers license, because you legally can't drive without one here and there are checkpoints.
Positive points: Everything
Negative points: Nothing
Review: Our host was enthusiastic and made us feel so welcomed. He assisted us with arranging the ha giang loop tour which we were very grateful for. Food at home stay was delicious and all the staff there was so kind and friendly. Everyone was full of smiles
Positive points: The location was beautiful and the owners were so so lovely and helpful. They really made us feel at home. You can also go down and swim in the river which is amazing
Review:
We started and ended our Ha Giang Loop trip in this homestay. And none of the other homestays we were at could match it.
The owner is super friendly and kind, even upgraded our rooms to bungalows both times free of charge. And when we returned after 4 days, he welcomed us with fruits and snacks.
He also helped us planning our trip and which roads/shortcuts to take and lots of other recommendations and advices.
The rest of the staff was also just as friendly.
If you want to be surrounded by lots of nature, away from the city noises then this homestay is the one for you. The facilities are clean, there are mosquito nets in the rooms and the dinner was delicious.
Overall, this homestay is super recommendable and you won't regret staying there.
Positive points: Very peaceful location right by a river you can swim in. The room was clean and had everything you needed, and the staff were very friendly.
Negative points: It’s a bit out of the city but they provide free bikes for you to use and also can arrange a motorbike hire
Review: Faithien is a simple, well-built, and well-maintained place in Ha Giang City that feels miles away. I stayed for a night after completing the loop, and I felt like I was back in the mountains. I'll definitely book here when I return to Ha Giang.
Positive points: Lovely food and great rural location
Negative points: It gets incredibly hot in Ha giang (44°) and the room didn’t have air con and only a small weak fan so had the worst nights sleep since 4 months of travel l, this was made worse by the drunk guests who would not be quiet
Review: This place was amazing. Our bungalow was right off the river in a forest at the base of mountains. Dinner was fantastic and all grown and raised on site. Can’t recommend this place enough!
Positive points: Wow where to start!!! The hosts are beyond helpful and so fun. The dinner each night was amazing and cooked with love. The bungalow is so beautiful and there is a river on the property. You can swim in it during the day and you can hear it at night from the room. I want to write a book about how much I love this place. They helped us with the motor bikes for the ha giang loop and helped us figure out the route. I love them. I love this place.
Negative points: I wish I could’ve stayed more time!!!
Review: This place was unbelievable. Right on a river in the forest at the base of mountains. Amazing dinner was all grown and raised locally. You can’t go wrong booking here.
Positive points: We like the location, it is out of town a few km so is quiet and right along the river. Nice balcony with comfortable hammock. We ate breakfast and dinner there, enjoyed both. The staff was very good. Ang (spelling may be wrong), the owner, was wonderful, friendly and helpful, he found us a car and driver to do the Ha Giang Loop over 3 days 2 nights, price was excellent value, driver was great (we used Google Translate to communicate), vehicle was large and comfortable. The bed at Fathien was comfortable, room was good size. I would highly recommend and would stay there again.
Negative points: All good, nothing to complain about.
Review: Clear communication on how to get there, helpful even though we arrived quite late. Arranged everything we asked for very quickly. Everything was as described and we will be staying again!
Positive points: We had a wonderful stay here after our night bus to Ha Giang. The house is in a lovely countryside setting, very clean and comfortable. The host was very kind and helpful and very flexible with our check in time. Thank you for this stay!
Review: Our best place on the whole ha giang loop!
Positive points: Beautiful location, right next to the peaceful river. Incredible home cooking, all food sourced from local area. They also keep bees and so the honey tastes amazing. Wonderful hosts that were very kind, interesting and always happy to help. I would highly recommend this homestay to anybody.
Negative points: Nothing. Everything was amazing. Highly recommend.
