Awesome base for trips
Owner's passion for excellence, ability and willingness to help, modesty and patience of owner
9.3
Ninh Binh is not the destiny of choice for a city of itself - what it affords is awesome access to some of the sights around Ninh Binh that are truly amazing - and the hotel provides the means top achieve that unlike any other in my experience. This hotel is fledgling (two rooms) and has plans to expand and will if the owner continues along his current path. You really do feel in safe and caring hands when you land in this hotel.

Our stay at the Vancouver Hotel was superb. Owner, Mr David, organised all our transport and tours by email correspondence. Everything was well organised, he listened to all our requests and worked out ways for us to see and do everything we wanted. Nothing was too much trouble and his assistance made our time in Ninh Binh and also in Hanoi, Halong bay and Sapa very special and easy. From our first email correspondence to when we finally met him at our hotel in Hanoi David was professional and attentive, really taking that extra care to make our trip a happy one,
We enjoyed the meals in the hotel and sharing a sip of rice wine one night with David. We fully recommend this nice little hotel.

We stayed for one night and came with the night train from Hanoi. Our old hotel called David, the owner of the Vancouver hotel, and he picked us up straight from the moment we left the train. That was really nice, especially considering that it was already late evening. After he drove us to the hotel he recommended us some places to go and organized us a driver.
We were three persons, and the room was really big enough. Also the bathroom was really nice and big. The whole room and hotel is pretty new and everything is well maintained and clean. Really awesome.
He cooks the breakfast after you order. Breakfast was really good and tasty.
He also recommended us some places to hang out around his hotel and in the evening we could shower in his bathroom and he also provided us new towels.
It was really a pleasant stay, if you go to Ninh Binh, take a room at Davids place. You wont regret it and you also support a vietnamese family, and not a big hotel resort.

Excellent, great service
Great service, good bed, pleasant family run hotel
9.3
Great stay,we arrived early in the morning and could access our room instantly. David, the owner/manager was very service oriented. For the trips through the mountains we rented scooters at the hotel and while goingto the National Park a private driver was arranged.
When moving from Ninh Binh to Cat Ba Island, the hotel manager arranged our boat tickets and our drive to Haiphong.
There were some comments of other travellers regarding the breakfact, in our opinion it was simple and good.
We would recommend this hotel to everyone visiting Ninh Binh..
ps, Ninh Binh is not the most interesting city, but the sightseeing around Ninh Binh is fantastic.

Family run business with outstanding service
Manager, modern designed rooms and comfy bed
9
Arrived in Ninh Binh at 6:15 in the morning via sleeper bus. Manager organised and paid for taxi to pick us up from bus station!!! Were allowed immediate check in, which was highly appreciated. Room was spacious with beautiful modern design features, a very comfortable bed (softer than usual) and a huge bathroom. No in room safe, BUT option to use the big one at the frontdesk. Manager arranged a private car for us, which took us to the Trang An grottoes. What a gorgeous place! NO vendors, mostly vietnamese tourists. Because of all the outstanding help from the owner/manager we were able to see everything in only one day.
Next day he even arranged for us to be picked up by a public bus company for our trip to Hanoi. Exceptional service ! Thank You!

A little gem
Comfortable, clean and amazing English speaking owner
8.7
We stayed in Ninh Binh primarily to see the surrounding area while travelling around Vietnam. The owner surprised us beyond expectations, not only did he arrange a guide for us for a cycling tour but he also recommended and booked a hotel for us in Hanoi. He bought our onward train tickets so we did not have to break up our day at the station and also booked a trip to Halong Bay while we were in Hanoi. He was amazingly helpful and has excellent English language skills. The hotel is small but very clean and has fantastically comfortable beds and is also very quiet. All in all we had great service and can't thank him enough.

David (the owner) made our stay in Ninh Binh VERY enjoyable as he made it feel like home. His english is fantastic and his knowledge of the area very interesting. He organised everything we requested, including a scooter, where to go what to do, airport transfer, etc etc... Thanks heaps David
