4-Star Hotels in Ninh Binh Province, Vietnam

We stayed at the Emeralda Resort in Tam Coc for 3 nights last week. It was a pleasant experience. The hotel is beautiful, I loved the view of our bedroom. The staff is very welcoming, they would help with everything we needed. The Spa is worth checking, loved the massages. The restaurant serves a variety of meals and they are all good. The breakfast buffet is great, especially if you seat by the windows where it's a beautiful view of the mountains of on the other side you can sit below the koi aquarium. We booked two days of tours, and the guide Sau Dang made a perfect schedule for us. We had his attention during all the days, he took me to see the most incredible things. Explaining the history and juice details about the geography and culture of each place we passed and about the Complex of Ninh Binh itself. Thank you Emerald Resort, thank you Sau Dang. You all made our time there lovely! We would love to come back.

We arranged private transport from Hanoi hotel to Hidden Charm and the transport was punctual (early in fact). Driver was focused and safe. Check-in at Hidden Charm was a breeze, they served a citrusy warm drink that I enjoyed. Front desk customer service personnel were proactive in suggesting sightseeing spots at Ninh Binh when we asked for suggestions. Breakfast buffet was pretty standard with western bread options and Asian pho, fried rice etc. Location wise, Hidden Charm is very near the Tam Coc boat ticket booth and also offers bicycles for us to cycle to Mua Caves and where the Lying Dragon was. At the entrance to Mua Cave, there will be people trying to get you to park your bikes for a fee, typically 5k VND per bike but we found one close to entrance and charged 2k VND per bike. Our room was at the 7th floor and comes with a expansive view. The bed was comfortable and not too soft. There was also a bath tub for me to enjoy. At the end of trip, the hotel staff arranged for private transport to the Noi Bai airport at my request. Again, driver was early and ride was smooth. I enjoyed my stay at Hidden Charm and would recommend to anyone who wish to stay in a clean hotel with excellent service.

Simple, rustic hotel in Ninh Binh. We stayed here for two nights to explore Ninh Binh. From the start, D, the hotel staff was very prompt in answering our inquiries which was very assuring for a pleasant stay. Our private airport transfer to the hotel went without a hitch. Arriving at the hotel in the morning, we were offered breakfast which was well appreciated. The room was spacious and clean but needs refurbishment. The place is peaceful and quiet. Overall a very good stay.

One of the best Hotel in Vietnam . Not beacuse of concrete and finishing , because of The Reed people .. Awesome stay . Special thanks to quen for such a fantastic international skills and communication. The breakfast spread was great . We were greeted so well with early checkin around 12 .

10/10 Detailed review from an American. Room: clean, modern, upscale. Western-style furniture. Spacious beds. Nice furniture, free toothbrushes and combs, lovely bathroom facilities. Noise level: PEACEFUL and QUIET! Relaxing, if you want to escape the city noise. It is the countryside after all. You can see water buffalo herds in the fields nearby if you take a walk outside the hotel. I can watch them from my hotel window. Staff and service: AMAZING! So friendly and helpful and honest hardworking staff. Won't cheat or scam. Use google translate if needed. Honestly the staff made our stay so good we extended the stay an extra day. Ask them for local recommendations (they don't get a kickback from any recommendations so its all genuine) Food: RECOMMENDED! Especially for travelers afraid of getting food poisoning or upset stomach from street food. Restaurant quality, home-cooked/cooked-to-order meal. Clean kitchen facility. Good prices, cheap. Made with love, the manager herself cooked a lot of the meals for us and they were delicious (for reference, im vietnamese-american so in my humble opinion, the authenticity is excellent and pleasing to a western palate as well. Personal Recommendation: Want a nice dinner thats still authentic? Order your food and eat outdoors in the cool of the evening, try the barbeque-it-yourself beef and goat. Delicious, hand-marinated quality beef cuts and goat, and they give you a little tabletop BBQ pit for you to bbq your meat just how you like it. Order some side dishes and its a great and fun family meal. If you want to and the staff aren't busy, they can bbq it for you if you want, but I think its fun to do it yourself. The location is out in the countryside but don't be alarmed because the hotel is a short drive from the main city center and tourist spots. The bad: - The beer is warm lol. They should refrigerate it. - Tip: if you ask for ”wine”, note that its vietnamese hard liquor, not the western understanding of wine (grapes). - There's a stupid rooster nearby from one of the local farms and it likes to crow all day. If you stay in the downstairs rooms you might be able to hear it, but if you stay in the upper floors you can't hear it. Would stay again.

The hotel is located in the city center Ninh Bình. Near Winmart Supermarket, very good. The hotel has just been upgraded and repaired, so it is beautiful and new. Friendly staff, always smile. Ninh Binh very beautyful.

I am very satisfied with everything. It is great value for money. I will come here again to enjoy my vacation next time.

the villa and facilities are excellent, breakfast spread was also decent with an option for local vietnamese pho bo. however location is slightly further away from the main attractions like Tam Coc or Mua Caves

We visited Fairy Mountain Retreat for the day we was greeted by the wonderful Chung who took us on a wonderful on this fairytale place it was so enlightening and charming … we relaxed with a fresh juice by the lake in the bar … then had a delicious lunch … we would totally recommend this place it’s stunning and the service is impeccable 🫶🏻🙏

We stayed in the Full Moon Villa and absolutely loved it. The resort is beautifully maintained. Our Villa was quite large with a separate living room and Police space bedroom and large bathroom. We enjoyed massages both of the two nights we stayed. They start with a soothing foot bath before leading you upstairs for your treatment. The dining room has an extensive menu and the wait staff willing to help with your decisions. They present a nice selection for a buffet breakfast with eggs to order. The only slightly negative thing I can say is both of the days we were there we could hear someone speaking through a loud system seemed to be coming from a local school. It took away a bit of the serenity of this beautiful resort. That being said, I would gladly go back.

A beautiful settings. The whole place is in a big garden. Rooms are nice, large and well lit with natural sunlight. Staff very cooperative trying to please. I got in after a long day, desperately needed a massage (after 8pm), still they managed to get a good masseuse. Breakfast is okay. Maybe more towards local cuisine, but with a nice selection of fresh vegetables, eggs and fruit. I’ll be happy to stay there again.

All services are so great from room, food, etc. All makes my trip wonderful with friends at weekend. Athena is in harmony with nnature and takes you about 3 km to Hang Mu (Mu Cave) and about 6 km to the Ancient Quater in Ninh Binh. I am so impressive with all services. Definitely, I will come back to Athena many times.

An;s Eco Garden is surrounded by mountains, small lake and beautiful landscape. Although it gives a sense of isolation, it is quite close to center city of Ninh Binh, easy to pick up transport with a Grab or taxi. I loved the bungalow we stayed in. Although it looked rustic, it was quite modern! It was clean and comfortable, offering a sunny large window and front porch. The lodge provided bicycles free for use, which we used to get to Trang An and Mau Caves. The terrain was flat, so it was an easy ride. The staff were incredibly nice and helpful with suggestions and setting up tours. The lodge offered a wonderful buffet breakfast, which we ate sitting in their garden. We also enjoyed the tranquil pool, while having a drink looking at the beautiful setting. I would not hesitate to recommend this place to family and friends. Loved it!

The hotel recommended by the locals in Ninh Binh, set for the boss, the environment is not bad.
