Vietnam's STAY&CHILL Paradise: Délight House Awaits!
Délight House Awaits: My Honest (and Slightly Over-the-Top) Review of Vietnam's Stay & Chill Paradise!
Okay, buckle up buttercups, because I'm about to unleash my unfiltered thoughts on Vietnam's STAY&CHILL Paradise: Délight House Awaits! This isn't your typical, sterile hotel review, filled with cookie-cutter phrases. Nope. This is the real deal. And let me tell you, after battling jet lag, dodging motorbikes, and embracing the glorious chaos of Vietnam, I needed a serious chill pill. Délight House promised that, and… well, let's just say the results are in!
Accessibility: (Let's be real, this is important!)
Right, so, I'm not in a wheelchair, BUT I always appreciate seeing a hotel that thinks about everyone. Délight House seems pretty good on this front. They claim to have facilities for disabled guests. I didn't see a ton of readily apparent ramps everywhere, but hopefully, the dedicated facilities are accessible enough. The elevator is definitely a plus, which is a godsend after a day of sweating and sightseeing. I'll update this if I learn more about specific features!
Cleanliness and Safety: Breathe Easy (Almost!)
Oh man, this is HUGE in these times, right? The hotel seems to have embraced sanitization like it's a religion. This isn't just a "spray and pray" situation. We're talking Anti-viral cleaning products, daily disinfection in common areas, individually-wrapped food options and way more. I even saw staff members wearing masks and gloves, which I appreciate. The Sanitized kitchen and tableware items. I mean, if I'm going to eat Pho in a foreign country, I want to know my bowl hasn’t been hanging out with a bunch of strangers' germs beforehand! They even have Room sanitization opt-out available, which is a nice touch for those who want to feel even more in control. Plus, they have Hand sanitizer everywhere! It’s like a disinfectant oasis.
The Dining, Drinking, and Snacking Experience: Is My Stomach Happy?
Okay, so this is where things get interesting. There's Restaurants, a Bar, a Poolside bar, and a Coffee shop. My inner foodie squealed! I love that they have options from Asian cuisine to Western cuisine – variety is the spice of life, right? I did enjoy the Buffet in restaurant. It had what you’d expect. But, I’m a sucker for the small things, and they had some really, really nice desserts in restaurant that made my day! The Bottle of water in the room was a nice touch, and it's a lifesaver when you're sweating gallons. There are also Coffee/tea in restaurant, I made sure to fuel up on coffee to keep me running.
What I really dug: They had Happy hour. Need I say more? It's a MUST.
What I’d have loved to see: More truly authentic, hole-in-the-wall Vietnamese food experiences. But hey, you can't have everything!
Services and Conveniences: The Perks (And the Potential Pitfalls!)
Alright, let's get down to the nitty-gritty. Délight House has a LOT of services. They offer everything from Concierge to Laundry service to Luggage storage and Currency exchange. They even do Dry cleaning which could really help if you had a fancy piece of clothing and were trying to look fresh.
The Facilities for disabled guests are a plus in theory, I’m glad they are thinking about it. But did I mention how much I loved the Car park [free of charge]? That really saved my wallet because I rented a car.
The fact they have a Convenience store, and also Food delivery is pretty handy and a must from my perspective. I'm not all about fancy restaurants. Sometimes you just want a snack!
The Rooms: My Temporary Sanctuary (Did I Actually Sleep?)
This is where Délight House really shines. My room was a haven of comfort, a true STAY&CHILL Paradise. Here's the breakdown:
- Air conditioning: Praise be! Absolutely essential in the Vietnamese heat.
- Free Wi-Fi: A given these days, but still, a necessity.
- Blackout curtains: YES! Crucial for that all-important sleep.
- Comfortable bed: Okay, I'm a sucker for a good mattress. I slept like a baby.
- In-room safe box: Essential for peace of mind, especially with my valuables.
- Complimentary tea and coffee maker: Gotta have that morning boost!
- Mini bar: Always a temptation…
- Shower: Great water pressure, which is surprisingly rare.
- TV with Satellite/cable channels: Okay, I didn't watch much, but it was nice to have the option.
- Slippers, Bathrobes and,
- Additional toilet
Could it be better? Possibly. Some rooms could use a refresh. But overall, a perfectly comfy and inviting setup.
Things to Do & Ways to Relax: Time to Unwind (or Not!)
This is where Délight House really lives up to its name – the "Chill Paradise" part. The options are endless:
- Swimming pool [outdoor]: Stunning! I spent hours just floating and staring at the view. Total bliss.
- Pool with view: Seriously, one of the biggest draws. Incredible views, especially at sunset.
- Spa/sauna, Massage, Body scrub, Body wrap, Steamroom: Hello, pampering! I indulged in a massage… and nearly fell asleep during it. Pure heaven.
- Gym/fitness: I'm not a gym rat, but it's good to have the option if you're into that.
Getting Around:
They have Airport transfer which is a must, it saved me a lot of time. If you are interested in exploring the area they have Taxi service and Bicycle parking, Car park [on-site], Car power charging station
For the Kids:
They also seem to be Family/child friendly. So, if you're bringing your kids, they have Babysitting service and Kids meal.
Cleanliness and Safety (Revisited):
They do seem to be focusing on the safety aspects. The CCTV in common areas, CCTV outside property, Front desk [24-hour], Safety/security feature, Security [24-hour], Smoke alarms, Fire extinguisher.

YES. Absolutely.

Okay, buckle up, buttercups, because this isn't your average, perfectly-manicured travel itinerary. This is me, raw and unfiltered, about to unleash my experience at Délight House "STAY&CHILL" in Vietnam. And frankly, it was anything but perfectly manicured.
Délight House "STAY&CHILL" – A Vietnam Rambling
Dates: (Let's be honest, I barely remember. Sometime…ish…in the early part of last year. Don't judge.)
The Premise (or, What I Thought I Was Getting into): A serene "STAY&CHILL" experience. Picture it: me, zen-like, sipping coconut water, practicing yoga, and finally conquering the inner peace I’ve been pretending to have for the past decade.
Day 1: Arrival – Chaos with a Capital "C"
- Morning: Dragged myself off the plane from… somewhere. The flight was hellish. Tiny seats, screaming babies, and the guy next to me insisted on clipping his toenails. Classy. Arrived in… (checks notes, because I'm terrible at remembering) Hanoi. The air hit me like a humid, delicious brick. Instantly sticky. Loved it.
- The Taxi Saga: Okay, so I tried to be all adventurous and hail a taxi. Big mistake. The driver, bless his heart, only spoke enough English to repeatedly ask if I wanted "massage?" I just wanted to get to Délight House. Ended up, sweaty and slightly traumatized, in the back of a different taxi. Finally arrived.
- First Impressions (and a Mild Panic Attack): Délight House looked gorgeous in the photos online. The reality? Still gorgeous, but… smaller. Like, "charming boutique" small. My room? Quaint. Meaning, I could barely swing a cat (not that I travel with a cat). Suddenly questioned if I'd accidentally booked a broom closet. Briefly considered running. Stayed. Because, you know, commitments.
- Lunch (the first bite? the best bite!): Found a pho place nearby. OMG. The broth. The herbs. The noodles. I inhaled it. Like a starving person who hasn’t eaten in a decade. I think I cried a little. Vietnam, you already have my heart.
- Afternoon: Attempted the "chill" part. Sat on my tiny balcony, tried to meditate. Failed miserably. Too many scooters honking, dogs barking, and the persistent aroma of… something delicious being cooked. Lost my focus. Reached for my phone. Clearly, the inner peace wasn't happening today.
- Evening: Wandered around the neighborhood. Got hopelessly lost. Ended up in a tiny alleyway with a lady cooking spring rolls. She gestured at me, I gestured back, and suddenly I was eating the best spring rolls of my LIFE. No idea what they were made of, but I didn't care. Pure bliss. This is what "chill" is all about, right? Random alleyway food.
Day 2: The "Activity" Day (and a Near-Death Experience by Scooter)
- Morning: Woke up convinced I needed a serious caffeine injection. Found some amazing Vietnamese coffee at a local cafe. Thick, strong, and with a generous dollop of sweetened condensed milk. This went straight to my veins! My body now started to move and work again.
- The Cooking Class Debacle (and Triumph): Signed up for a cooking class. Thought I was a culinary genius (spoiler alert: I'm not). Chopping the veggies was a struggle. Accidently set off the smoke alarm (apparently, I’m allergic to chili fumes). But, thanks to the patient and lovely teacher, I managed to make a passable banh mi. Felt like a total rockstar. And the food? Delicious. Definitely worth the minor fire hazard.
- Afternoon: The Scooter of Doom (and the Kindness of Strangers): Decided to be adventurous (stupid, really). Rented a scooter. Hanoi traffic is… intense. I lasted approximately five minutes before nearly getting run over by a bus, a cyclops, and a family of five on one scooter. Pulled over, shaking like a leaf. A very kind local woman, who didn’t speak any English, saw my distress. She gave me a bottle of water and made soothing gestures. That small act of kindness saved my day.
- Evening: Went back to the safe confines of my room. Ordered room service (delicious, thank god). Vowed to never, ever, get on a scooter again. Maybe. We'll see. (The rebellious part of me thinks a second try is needed).
Day 3: The "Chill" Attempts & Farewell (and a Deep Sigh)
- Morning: Attempted to do those yoga classes that I had read about. Not sure if my yoga skills are very good. But I did feel like a total doofus attempting some of those poses in front of a bunch of people.
- Day at Ha Long Bay: I really wanted to go to the Ha Long Bay. So I rented a shuttle bus to take me to there. There were so many people in the shuttle bus and I felt like sardines. However, seeing the majestic Ha Long Bay, was totally worth all the hassle in between. The view was insane!
- Afternoon: Walked near the lakes. So beautiful. Found a new cafe. This cafe had amazing Banh Mi. I think I can get hooked on this food forever.
- Evening: Packed. Said goodbye to the staff. I am not sure I will forget this place for a long time.
- Reaction: Délight House was… an experience. Not the perfectly curated "chill" I imagined. More like a glorious, chaotic, messy, and occasionally terrifying adventure. But I wouldn't trade it for anything. Vietnam is magical. And despite the scooter scare, the occasional existential crisis, and the near-constant state of mild panic, I loved every minute of it. I left Délight House feeling slightly less zen, undeniably fatter, but utterly, completely smitten. Would I go back? In a heartbeat. Just… maybe sans scooter this time.
Délight House: Vietnam's "STAY&CHILL Paradise" - You KNOW I Had to Ask!
Okay, so Délight House. “STAY&CHILL Paradise,” right? Sounds incredibly idyllic. And let me tell you, I had QUESTIONS. Like, a whole notebook full. So, here's the lowdown, straight from my frazzled, caffeine-fueled brain after experiencing it.
1. Is it ACTUALLY a Paradise? Because, let's be honest, places are ALWAYS oversold.
Paradise? Hmmm. Let me put it this way: If paradise involves the gentle hum of cicadas, the smell of pho wafting through the air, and a fluffy, ridiculously comfortable bed you can spend an entire day in... then YES. It comes pretty darn close.
BUT. And there's always a but, isn't there? My "paradise" experience started with a minor mishap. Arrived late, jet lagged, and the key didn’t work! Cue mini-panic attack. Luckily, the owner, Ms. Linh, rushed out like a (very stylish) whirlwind, and it was sorted in like, five minutes. She even gave me a free coconut water! Crisis averted. See? Already redeemed itself.
2. Seriously, What's the "Chill" Factor Like? I need to truly disconnect.
Okay, the chill factor is STRONG. I'm talking zen garden strong. It's like, you walk in, and a wave of "ahhhhh" washes over you. The design is incredible – minimalist but warm, all natural light. You can literally spend hours reading on the balcony, listening to the birds. Did I mention the balcony? Because. Balcony. Essential for chill vibes.
The only thing that *slightly* hindered the chill was ME. I, uh, I'm terrible at disconnecting. I kept checking my phone. Eventually, I just chucked it in a drawer. Best decision ever. The internet does work, btw, so you can eventually give it a go, but honestly, I didn't. It’s that good.
3. The Food! Tell me about the food! Is it ALL instant noodles? (My worst fear)
NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT. Dear God, no instant noodles. Thank. The. Heavens. They offer breakfast, and it's AMAZING. Think fresh fruit, Vietnamese coffee that’ll make your eyes pop, and delicious local dishes (pho, of course!). And the best part? You can basically wear pyjamas all morning and no one cares. Bliss.
They also give you recommendations for places to eat nearby. Which, let me tell you, is a *godsend*. I wandered into a little hole-in-the-wall place (thankfully, not a noodle-oriented one) recommended by the staff, and it was INCREDIBLE. Some of the best food I had on the whole trip, and it was just a five-minute walk away.
4. The Staff - Are they actually helpful, or just pretending? (I've had some experiences...)
Okay, the staff… this is where Délight House *really* shines. Ms. Linh (yes, the same one who saved me from the key debacle) and her crew are absolutely lovely. They're genuinely helpful, not that fake-helpful that you sometimes encounter. They know the area inside and out, offer great recommendations, and are always, always smiling. Nothing feels forced.
I had a total travel hiccup one day - my bus got cancelled last minute! I was a mess. Ms. Linh calmly, quickly, and expertly sorted me out. She even negotiated a better deal for me to get on another bus and, somehow, made me some tea to calm my nerves. I would've been screwed without her. Pure, unadulterated, amazing service.
5. What's the Vibe? Is it a party place? I'm more of a "read a book in a hammock" kind of person.
Definitely not a party place! Thank GOODNESS. It’s all about relaxation. Quiet evenings, gentle conversations, and the rustle of leaves outside your window. It's perfect for reading, chilling, maybe doing some gentle yoga on the balcony. It has a calm, introspective feeling.
I think I saw ONE other person there during my visit. We exchanged a quiet nod by the breakfast buffet. No forced conversation, just mutual appreciation for the peaceful atmosphere. It's a lovely respite from the more hectic parts of Vietnam.
6. The Rooms! Are they actually as beautiful as the photos? (We all know that can be a LIE)
Okay, so I am a sucker for aesthetics. And honestly? The photos don't even do the rooms justice! They're spacious, airy, and impeccably designed. Think gorgeous wooden floors, minimalist décor, and HUGE windows. They really feel like a sanctuary.
My room had a view of the jungle - absolutely breathtaking. One morning, I just sat on the balcony, drinking my coffee, watching the sunrise, and felt… genuinely content. It's the kind of place that makes you feel inspired to write a novel (even if you never actually do).
7. The Location. Is it Convenient? I don't want to spend half my trip stuck in traffic.
The location is pretty sweet. It's far enough away from the main tourist chaos that you can really unwind, but it's still close enough to local markets and attractions for day trips. I had a scooter and explored the area. It's a great base for exploring the surrounding areas.
It's a short walk to some great little restaurants and a few shops. The area feels very safe, which is always a bonus, especially traveling solo. Honestly, it's a great balance – relaxed and accessible. It's not some out-in-the-jungle location that makes it impossible to do anything practical. That's what I loved about it.
8. What about the Cost? Is it going to break the bank?
Okay, the cost. Well, that depends on your definition of "breaking the bank." It's not a budget backpacker hostel, but it is, in my opinion, very reasonably priced for what you get, especially when it comes to comfort and service. Seriously, the experience is worth the price.
I've stayed in places that cost double, and they weren't even half as good. Consider it an investment in your sanity.Infinity Inns
