Pros:

Hôtel très bien situé, on se croirait dans la Jungle...
Un havre de paix...( J'y suis resté 10 nuits )
Personnel très serviable, disponible, à l'écoute, petit déjeuner correct, sans plus, la nourriture est très bonne, les plats sont copieux.
Si je dois retourner à Cat ba, c'est bien cet hôtel que je choisirai.
Merci pour votre accueil.

Cons:

L'équipement de la chambre : il faudrait une table de chevet et surtout un placard pour renger nos affaires.

Pros:

Nice vibe to the hotel, helpful staff and great breakfast. Didn’t end up using the pool but it looked lovely! Nice location it’s very peaceful. The town is near enough, a short grab ride or scooter away. We hired a scooter and explored the national park which is 15 mins from the hotel, the roads are nice and open with very little traffic. I also recommend booking a boat tour to Ha Long Bay through the hotel, it was really great!

Cons:

Nothing!

Pros:

The space was gorgeous & full of beautiful flowers and cozy places to hangout, eat, sit by the pool. Food & service was great. Very relaxing and wonderful experience here.

The manager was incredibly helpful, he went above & beyond to ensure we made it to our Ha Long Bay tour after a location mix up on my end.

Schöner Garten, Zimmer sehr simpel
Pros:

Schöner Garten, sehr freundliches Personal, das sich aufrichtig bemüht seine Gäste zu unterstützen und gute Lösungen zu finden. Das Essen im Restaurant ist sehr gut.

Cons:

Die Zimmer waren uns zu einfach und nicht schön bzw zu simpel eingerichtet. Außerdem waren viele Zimmer mit dunklen Holzwänden und nur einem kleinen Fenster. Der Swimmingpool war leider auch nicht sehr einladend.

Bon séjour dans ce resort accueillant.
Pros:

Le jardin fleuri et la piscine sont les atouts majeurs de ce resort. Il est situé le long d'une petite route peu fréquentée à l'écart de la ville.

Cons:

Un moyen de déplacement individuel est absolument nécessaire. Heureusement l'établissement propose des cyclomoteurs à la location.

Ruhig und freundlich
Pros:

Wir waren zufrieden und sehr dankbar, dass sie meine Kopfhörer gefunden haben, die ich am Abend im Garten des Restaurants verloren hatte. Beide Abendessen dort waren lecker, das Frühstück war in Ordnung. Das Zimmer war nicht groß, aber ausreichend, das Bad war allerdings sehr klein.

Vollkommen in Ordnung 👍🏻
Pros:

Die Lage liegt entfernt von den größeren Siedlungen auf Cat Ba, daher ist es angenehm ruhig. Das Personal ist super in jeder Hinsicht! Die Preise für die Roller sind mehr als fair.
Der Pool ist größentechnisch vollkommend ausreichend.

Cons:

Es wird um 6:45 eine Durchsage von einem naheliegend Lautsprecher abgespielt, inklusive einem Lied. Zusätzlich gibt es viele Hähne die in der Gegend krähen. Also nicht für Langschläfer.
