We had a wonderful stay with Trang An Ecolodge. Especially want to highlight how amazing the staff there are.
The day we arrived in Ninh Binh my friend was very ill. Staff Mark took great trouble to arrange for transport to get her some medical attention after sourcing a reputable place to take her to.
The breakfast was lovely as well and the staff a younger girl and the older lady were kind enough to provide second servings of fruit on request. They really did go the extra mile to accommodate our needs and wants. Highly recommend this place.
Only things that made me rate the property a little less than perfect were the showers with loose fittings that did not run with enough pressure.
Due to my schedule, I had to arrive late in the afternoon and check out the next morning, but it was a satisfying place to enjoy and relax in Ninh Binh, even if only for a short time. The entrances to the individual rooms were covered by trees and flowers in the well-maintained garden, providing a great sense of privacy. The lounge area right in front of my room was also a nice touch. The pool had a sloping bottom, allowing for a variety of depths. The pool was a good size, and there were three sizes of inflatable tubes, making it a great place to lie down and look at the night sky. Hang Mua is within a few minutes' walk, and a Grab ride to Tam Coc took about 10 minutes and cost around 90,000 VND. I cycled to Tam Coc in the morning, taking photos and finding my way back and forth. It took about 40-50 minutes. The food, especially the breakfast, was the best of all the accommodations I've stayed at in Vietnam. There are so many options that I often don't enjoy, but each dish was satisfying, and the fruit corner even had mangoes. The staff were friendly, and there was always an English-speaking staff member at the desk. If I ever return to Ninh Binh, I'd definitely stay here again.
The swimming pool was very happy, the hotel was surrounded by the mountains, it was not too convenient to go out, so we rented a motorcycle to play everywhere and it was perfect... The hotel's breakfast is not too much, let's eat alive, the price is so cheap and don't expect everything to be perfect. The toilet window in the room cannot be closed tightly, so there are often mosquitoes in the room, but there are simple children's amusement facilities in the hotel garden with electric mosquito patties. Overall very good!
