Hotéis em Dong Hoi

Prós: The employees at Nam Long Plus were incredibly friendly and helpful. Our room was spotless, and had a beautiful view of the beach. We enjoyed a hot breakfast and coffee each morning, both of which were included in the price of our room. Other than one situation with a shuttle to Hue, we had a great stay at Nam Long Plus.

Contras: We asked one of the employees to help us get a bus to Hue, which was 150,000 VND per person. We were told that paying for a taxi to the city bus station, for the city bus, and for another taxi from the Hue bus station to our hotel would be about that price anyway. The "bus" ended up being a shuttle/van, which served multiple purposes, including making deliveries. The bus driver kept piling people onto the van beyond its capacity. At one point, there were 5 people sitting in each row, which was intended for 4 people max. Overall, the shuttle to Hue that was set up by Nam Long Plus was unsafe and overpriced, and had we known that this was what the "private, air conditioned bus" would be, we would've just opted for the city bus.

Prós: The hotel is essentially newly built. It is run by a family. For a 2-star, we would give it 100% positive rating since all facilities are available in the room. They also run many tours to the cave. We took one and were more than satisfied.

Prós: Friendly and accommodating staff.

Prós: Bed was a bit hard.

Contras: Loved the staff, they were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good. Room was large and clean.

Prós: The room is spacious=)

Prós: Amazing breakfast and helpful staff.

Contras: Wifi didn't work.

Prós: The location, very big room with windows both sides, overlooking river and sea. Perfect organising of our daytrip to Paradise cave and Phonh Nha cave. They did free upgrade of our room.

Prós: friendly and helpful staff, good support for other activities (cave tour, taxi), pickup service from train station

Prós: The staff was very helpful and professional. The neighborhood was less noisy than the centre and we loved that (we had one night in the centre as well). Although it's a bit far from the centre we could still walk there (in ca 15 minutes) and we didn't have to walk on roads, and usually that is how you can walk in Vietnam. The room was very bright and well equipped.

Prós: Everything, they organised and helped me with my cave tour. I checked in really late and the staff cooked me food cause I was so hungry. Beautiful people.

Contras: Nothing I didn't like.

Prós: The pool was fine, though only one of three pools was open. The staff were smiling and friendly, but did not speak English.

Contras: None of the staff we meet spoke English, which made it hard to order food, ask for help etc. The A/C got switched off when we left the room and combined with the open vent from the bathroom to the corridor, it got unbearable hot and humid. There is no A/C in the lobby, restaurant or other common areas. The hotel has a remote location hence no easy alternatives to the overpriced restaurant.

Prós: The beach was right outside the window. Good food. Clean and big bathroom!

Contras: I wish the staff could speak English.

Prós: It was clean breakfast was good the staff were very nice and friendly

Contras: Nothing

Prós: We stayed for 3 nights over Christmas and couldn’t believe how good this place was for £30 a night. Lovely room with a balcony, great pool, lovely grounds leading down to the beach. Most of the staff do not speak any English but were keen to help and we managed ok via google translate. The place seemed practically empty and we felt like we had the pool and beach to ourselves! The included breakfast was great, there were a few options on the menu (including: eggs, sausage & bacon; egg sandwich; tuna sandwich; Vietnamese noodle soup) these came with toast and were followed by cakes, a plate of fruit and a yoghurt. Also choice of juices, tea and coffee. We ate in the restaurant one night which was moderately priced and the food was very good. Definitely recommend this place!

Contras: The location is a couple of km out of town. There is nothing else around, even the nearest hotel is quite a way up the road. We took taxis into town to the supermarket (co-op mart) and to go out for dinner and it cost 50k dong each way so the location didn’t prove a problem.

Prós: The staffs are so nice, the ladies on receptionist and the man who helped us bringing stuffs in and out, they are so warm, polite and helpful.

Contras: We booked "sea view" room, but turned out the room only "looks to the sea" and the view is covered by lots of trees and it is so far from the sea that you basically cant see anything. But they upgrade for us the decent ocean view instead so its ok.

Prós: Beautiful place and wonderful staff! We definitely enjoyed our stay here. There is everything you need: a beautiful, spacious, bright room; a beach; a large, clean swimming pool; restaurant with great food and coffee; and helpful staff! We're definitely coming back!

Prós: Lovely rooms. Great access to beach

Contras: The staff spoke very little to no no English so because of this we had to navigate a lot of things ourselves. This was the same for Dong Hoi in general. Quiet place. Nice for a short break

Prós: Breakfast was very good. We needed more communication in English but got along fine with our Vietnamese daughter translating for us. All facilities are very nice. Cabs are very convenient and we had easy access to Dong Hoi and Vo Ninh to visit our new family!

Contras: We would have liked more service at the beach bar and the bar/hut. The hut is beautiful and relaxing but bartenders don’t know how to make drinks that are on the menu.

Prós: Staff and room with view from balcony

Prós: Staff were very friendly and helpful

Contras: Hot water ran out during second shower

Prós: Our tv didn’t work, so they changed our room to a larger, nicer room with no extra charge. Very nice. Also, the breakfast was very good. We ordered off a menu and had omelette a or scrambled eggs with a fresh baguette every morning. And really good coffee. One morning we had a tour of the caves and needed to eat earlier, and they accommodated that- no problem.

Contras: Nothing

Prós: Nice hotel in a great location. I think I had the best room.. the room was quite small but was clean and had all facilities but the big plus was the massive balcony with great views of the river, what a great place to chill! Breakfast was good too. It's a very quiet area and not too many places to eat in the immediate area but lots of coffee shops!

Prós: Very kind and helpful owner. They even offered us to take a shower after our return from Phang Na Caves.

Prós: Our room was huge and nicely furnished with high ceilings. The hotel is linked to 'the tour of the caves', which worked well for us. The staff were helpful and the location was good.

Contras: Nothing, it was all fine.

Prós: Friendly staff

Contras: Breakfast is okay, but close at 9.30. I think it should be close at 10.00. Pool is not so convenient to walk to.

Prós: The hotel is fine and good value for money.

Contras: But don’t try the massage. Offered in a separate building together with karaoke, the massage girls are dressed like call girls and have not been properly trained. The towels are torn, the bed sheet and pillow case not changed between the customers and a 60 min massage consists of 15 minutes’ steam bath (in a small cabin with a dirty and ice cold floor) and a 5 min’ jacuzzi in cold water.

Prós: Great price.

Contras: Breakfast was OK, not the greatest you can find. It was off season, so the place, and the whole town, were rather quiet.

Prós: The staff are polite, enthusiast and cute. The chef is excellent.

Contras: No

Prós: Nice staffs and cleaning room

Prós: Extremely nice hotel for that amount of money. Rooms quite large, clean bathroom and room itself. Good bed, many room utensils. Good shower cabin and shower itself. Super fast elevator. Sky bar (with swimming pool and nice view of the bay) - beer only 25k VND. Very good breakfast with lots of varieties and choices. Although hotel is outside of centre of the town, it takes less than 5 minutes with taxi to get there for about 20k-30k VND. Perfect hotel to enjoy silence and to relax. Also, it's easy to fly to Dong Hoi and then visit caves in Phang Nha.

Prós: Extraordinary hotel! Fantastic customer services!

Prós: Personell was very helpful. They helped me to book a day trip, even before my arrival, to the Paradise Cave and Phong Nha Cave with the company called Phongnha Discovery. The room was quiet and spacious. They have a very nice restaurant on the 2nd floor and a swimming pool with bar on the top floor. Great view!

Prós: The room was a good size and beds comfortable. Netflix available.

Contras: Pool area was a little dirty and maintenance was being done during our stay, the pool was open until 22.00 but all the lights where turned off at 20.00 so couldn't be used. 1st morning at breakfast no acknowledgement from staff, we where the only people dining, no atmosphere all you could hear where the staff talking loudly to each other. Very dated, dark heavy furniture. Hotel is located far away from any shops or restaurants. We asked for some milk so we could make 2 cups of tea in our room and where then charged 28,000 VND for it which is ridiculous! Beach and sea is heavily polluted, 100's of plastic bottles and rubbish line the beach for as far as you can see. Some staff just seemed to spend their time sitting in reception watching the TV. For a 4 star hotel unfortunately it was very dissappointing.

Prós: Stayed over Vinh Hoang 1 night and really enjoy this hotel. Very comfortable, diverse breakfast, nice view from room and rooftop. Staffs is helpful and openness.

Prós: I didn't really aware of how elegant this hotel will look like. But when i arrived, i pretty shock of how pretty the hotel is. Their breakfast are good, it's super clean, they can book you a taxi, overall, so awesome!

Prós: Very friendly staff - specially the receptionist (twee or Three). Great location - walking distance to all the best cafés and restaurant. Great view of the river.

Contras: Nothing.

Prós: Couldn't believe how nice this place was considering the value!! One of the fanciest places we've stayed, and at a really reasonable price. Just the luxury we needed after a long motorbike trip to treat ourselves a little!! Ask for a riverfront room...the views are amazing!

Prós: I didn't really aware of how elegant this hotel will look like. But when i arrived, i pretty shock of how pretty the hotel is. Their breakfast are good, it's super clean, they can book you a taxi, overall, so awesome!

Prós: Check in process was just as good as checking into The Four Seasons. The young woman who checked me in spoke perfect English and exuded hospitality. I had the key in my hand and was off to my room which was beautiful, in under three minutes. The best room I have had in Vietnam and I have been here for a month.

Prós: Location

Contras: Breakfast

Prós: The bedroom room size and shower facilities.

Contras: Staff spoke very little English. Difficult and frustrating communicating. Ordered and payed for a Train Ticket and Hotel Taxi. But when I returned from my day out another member could not understand what was agreed and payed. Very poor reception service. Took a Taxi to the station, driver wanted paying. I showed him the signed receipt showing hotel taxi and train ticket signed by the receptionist. He subsequently called the hotel and they did not acknowledge it. It’s left a bitter taste in one’s mouth. After such an amazing day at the Caves. Disappointing ending.

Prós: Cheap

Contras: Grumpy staff and fairly pricey food. Also on a pretty busy road.

Prós: Not much...

Contras: The noise... windows didn't close letting in mosquitos.breakfeast was 2 eggs and dry piece of bread with no jam or butter.they charged for coffee.

Prós: We liked the showers and towels available, the hosts were very kind and accommodating

Contras: The double bed we had was very hard and we couldn't sleep well. The bar downstairs was loud until 1 am.

Prós: Easy access to around the city.

Prós: Nothing

Prós: Nothing

Contras: - BED BUGS in the bunk beds room !!!!! - When i am try to refill a bottle with water staff are scream to me "You are not allowed to use a free water. This water only for staff. All foreigners need to buy a bottle". Its my first experience when i cannot use a free drinking water in the hostel !!! - Room very small and dirty - Aircon has working very bad. Very hot in the room. - Impossible to close a door to dormitory room - Staff can't help me with any question Never come back !!!!

Prós: Liked the location. Nice bar on main floor. Breakfast was good.

Contras: We had a private room but you would never know it. The three girls next door were very loud and it sounded like they were in our room.

Prós: The staff was very friendly and helpful and the rooms were very comfortable. The view to the river through the huge window was very nice. The Asian breakfast was very rich and tasty.

Prós: Good location, comfortable beds, nice staff

Contras: Very dirty shower curtain in bathroom, poor breakfast (especially for European people), very expensive hotel bar & restaurant (in comparison with restaurants in the neighbourhood)

Prós: The room was fine although smoking was allowed. The staff was friendly.

Contras: The pool was filthy and nothing like the pictures. Despite signs there was no pool bar. The breakfast left a lot to wish for both regarding the a la carte menu and the buffet.

Prós: The man on reception was really great, was very easy to talk to. The hotel is solid, my family stayed here while typhoon Jenny passed over, it felt secure. There is a vinmart within walking distance for travelling supplies

Contras: Smoking in the cafe in the lobby, makes the lobby/reception smell

Prós: Mattress and location are best. But no transport no bicycle can go around.

Contras: The toilet always smell smell bad, air-conditioning not cooling at first.

Prós: Location was very good

Contras: Cleanliness was a big question overall ciggarete smell in the corridor bathrooms we're not that clean restaurant had a overwhelming smell

Prós: Near the beach Spacious room Good view

Prós: Good location, can walk to the beach easily and have a bunch of seafood stalls right in front of the hotel

Prós: Lovely big rooms, very clean and comfortable. The staff are great, they organised a brilliant trip to the Paradise Cave and were always very helpful. The swimming pool is amazing, just what you need on a hot day!

Contras: Although the hotel is beachfront, you can't swim at that beach, you have to walk around 20 mins to another area.

Prós: Great location for those wanting to take the trip to the Phong Nha National Park. Very comfortable and clean rooms, good breakfast.

Contras: Communication - they were the slowest hotel to respond to messages on booking.com and I had to check twice that our trip had been booked. The staff struggled to speak and understand English. The air conditioning didn't work properly and the shower was very poor. Also the floor in the shower was extremely slippy!

Prós: Very good service. Ms trang in the reception was very helpful all the time. Would recommend any time.

Prós: Great for stopover. Really friendly staff. We visited the tunnels in vinh moc from here

Contras: Beds hard

Prós: Good location with friendly and helpful staff. Clean room.

Prós: It was very cheap in very good location. Better location than more expensive hotels

Contras: We had one towel to share and there was no drinking water (even to pay for). However these are just small things. Overall was very good.
