Hotels in Cat Hai, Hai Phong

"This was a beautiful resort in a very nice location. Unfortunately, two of the pools were closed when we were there for maintenance and the weather wasn’t very nice so we were unable to use the beach facilities. There was only one restaurant open for supper dining options. We had to pay for a shuttle into town or you could walk about 20 minutes. It is a bigger resort and felt a little bit more impersonal than some of the smaller properties we’ve stayed at on our trip to Vietnam. Although the staff were friendly and helpful, you didn’t get as much of a personal touch as you do in some smaller places."

"Our stay at the Moon Boutique Hotel was wonderful. This was the best hotel we stayed at on our 2 week trip to Vietnam. The rooms were very clean and the beds were extremely comfortable. The breakfast was great and the staff was friendly and helpful for all our needs. The location is right in the main strip of Cat Ba town, which can be a bit hectic but our room wasn’t too noisy. This was a great value for the price and I would return."

"We loved our stay in Cat Ba! Linda was an amazing host and the staff were so helpful. We had the most delicious hot pot there one evening. Linda helped us with all our planning. It had a quaint garden with puppies running around, and monkeys howling in the distance. A/C worked and our daughter swam in the pool at night. Would recommend if looking for a homestay in the area!"

"It's a modern hotel with modern rooms and a friendly front desk staff. The negatives are that there is no chair or table or luggage rack in the rooms, and the breakfast was a very small set meal, by far the smallest breakfast among eight hotels that we've stayed in while in Vietnam."

"Hotel was as shown in the photos. Clean good size room. Staff friendly. Breakfast was fine. Extended stay 1 night. Close to everything."

"Large room , clean great view and close to everything"

"Great location. Staff was amazing. Helped us with transportation and laundry. Check in was easy. Clean and good breakfast. I found the beds very hard but other then that i would recommend."

"Balloo was a wonderful host. This property offers a relaxing environment that boasts beautiful scenery with lush vegetation. The service has been second to none! 10/10 recommend this for your next stay! "

"A Serene Escape: My 2D1N Experience on the Orchid Cruise If you are looking for a perfect blend of luxury and tranquility in Lan Ha Bay, the Orchid Cruise is an absolute gem. My recent two-day, one-night journey was nothing short of magical - a much-needed breath of fresh air away from the hustle. Culinary Highlights The food on this cruise is in a league of its own. While the lunches were delicious, the à la carte dinner was the undisputed star of the show. Every dish was beautifully presented and bursting with fresh, sophisticated flavors. It felt more like a high-end boutique dining experience than a standard cruise buffet. Daily Adventures & Zen Moments The itinerary strikes a perfect balance between activity and relaxation: • Kayaking: It’s incredibly peaceful when you’re away from the main boat. • Squid Fishing: A fun, low-pressure way to spend the evening under the stars. • Tai Chi at Sunrise: There is no better way to wake up. Practicing slow, deliberate movements on the sundeck as the mist rises off the water was a highlight of the trip. The Vibe What sets Orchid apart is how serene and peaceful the entire experience feels. Because Lan Ha Bay is less crowded than its neighbour, Ha Long Bay, you truly feel immersed in nature. The service was attentive but never intrusive, making the whole trip feel like a seamless, high-end retreat. Special thank you to Fiora who made us feel very special! "
