Hotels near Đá Việt Center, Hoa Lu District

The best part of this hotel was the location. It’s in a quieter part of Tam Coc about 10 minutes’ walk from the centre. It’s on the main road, but you are one street back and there are rice fields right behind you. Tam Coc town itself isn’t that nice. Super touristy and tacky but it’s where most the restaurants and shops are so it’s nice being in a spot where it’s accessible, but you can also escape. The hotel itself is nice but definitely 3-star. That’s not a critique as it doesn’t sell itself as higher than that, but I think some of the photos flatter it a bit. The pool area is beautiful, overlooking the rice fields. Rooms are clean and a good size but a little worn. The staff and owner are lovely. English isn’t strong even by Vietnamese standards, so needed to use the translator app a fair bit but was never a problem. They have free bicyles to rent and they are good quality. I was impressed. You can get to most of the main sites from the hotel by peddle bike if you have a basic level of fitness. Motor scooters can also be rented for cheap. A couple of small opportunities for the hotel. It took me 3 days to get hand soap in my room. I did ask and got told it’s on the wall. Only saw body wash on the wall so assumed that’s all there was but the cleaners eventually noticed and put in hand soap. Also, the fridge wasn’t working throughout the duration of my stay. Thirdly, the hotel has those bathtub showers but no curtain or screen so it’s impossible to shower without soaking the bathroom floor. Should put some in. Would be an easy fix. Overall, I would recommend the hotel. It is good value and in a great location. Thanks for having me. I definitely enjoyed my stay!

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.

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.

I had the pleasure of staying at Tam Coc Garden Resort, and it was truly like stepping into a dream. The bungalows are beautifully designed, blending seamlessly with the stunning natural surroundings. Every detail of the property feels thoughtfully curated to offer both comfort and serenity. The staff were exceptional, providing warm and attentive service from the moment we arrived. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was perfect. The restaurant serves absolutely delicious food, showcasing local flavors in dishes that were both authentic and refined. The pool area is an oasis of calm, and the spa services were top-notch — offering a perfect way to unwind after a day of exploring the nearby attractions. Every aspect of this resort exceeded my expectations, from the peaceful ambiance to the impeccable service. Tam Coc Garden Resort is more than just a place to stay; it’s a retreat for the soul. I can’t recommend it highly enough!

We stayed on the recommendation of a friend. The room was clean and had everything we needed, also seemed quite new. Staff was really friendly and they helped us a lot with bookings and transfers. Only downside is that the location is a bit far from the town/ restaurants, but the restaurant at the retreat was also great and the food was delicious and freshly made. A big plus is the pool with lovely views!

I found the perfect place for tranquility enjoying nature at its best. The place is surrounded by limestone and river. Our room had a view of the giant limestone cliffs on the side, at the front a natural habitat of trees with the sound of crickets and frogs. The place is surrounded by banana trees, pomelo, papaya and variety of flowers. My boyfriend used the billiards. I enjoyed my daily banana pancake, portions are generous. It was good to explore the area with complimentary push bikes. They would even provide a rain coat if it's raining. It was 15 minutes bike ride to majestic trang an river boat ride and 12 minutes to Hua Lu. The food was good. It was nice to spend a day at the hotel by the hammocks facing the river. The staff are so friendly, I feel like it was a home away from home. The food was amazing, the prices were reasonable. Thank you for the blissful memory.

This place was so special - the view is breathtaking, you can swim in the water, you can use the neighboring hostel’s pool, and the family who runs it is unbelievably helpful. The beds were SO comfortable and they always came in to clean up while you were out during the day so it was refreshing to come home to a clean room. They do laundry, they rent out bicycles and motorbikes, they book travel to your next destinations, they make great food...there’s nothing they don’t do well it seemed like! They put everything on one tab too so it made it easy to just pay all the expenses all at once before I left. The only thing was that it could get a little noisy at night with neighboring hostels playing music or early in the morning with motorbikes passing by on the road - but that just might have been because my room was closest to the street. The music would die down by 11 and there were still plenty of times where all I could hear were the birds’ calls echoing through the mountains. So peaceful! I’m so grateful I found this place!

It’s located in a quiet valley smack in the middle of Ninh Binh. The pool could be a little clearer but it’s ok to swim. Staff was very helpful and attentive the room is functional but hey you are there to explore the beautiful scenery and not the room. For 2-3 day trip it’s a great homebase with stunning view.

4 star resort with 5 star prices & 3 star services. Mar 2024 Vietnam is a very beautiful & culturally rich country. We visited Hanoi, Halong Bay, Hoi An, Da Nang & Ninh Binh on 11D/LON trip. Hospitality, reception & local immersion was outstanding at all places (except Emeralda) - people were welcoming & hotel staff were very courteous. Emeralda Resort at Ninh Binh was not so pleasant experience barring a few seasoned staff members. F&B Manager at Sen Restauran (morning paid breakfast) declined to entertain vegan food request & puréed fruit for 7 month infant, She said Kitchen's busy, we have large group to cater to. After much explanation she managed to get a fried rice (that's It!l) but for puréed fruit she denied & insisted I pay for it. Organic Restaurant is good, couple of staff there (mostly women) were courteous. Pool Bar attendant had some issues, not even acknowledging the greetings. Thanks to Ms Hung (Restaurant Manager), Mr Chung (Reception) & another Restaurant manager at Organic (missed her name) for making our stay bearable & manageable. They have a very wonderful property & spacious rooms, had the service been at par like ot 4 & 5 star resorts; it would be an ideal location for tranquility. Note: Vegan / Vegetarian food menu is limited & not allowed to buy food from outside.
