The host is super kind and supportive. The room is clean with two AC. The ceiling in 8-bed dorm is high so no need to worry that you will bump your head if you get the upper bunk, in the other hand the ceiling in 4-bed dorm is low. I book 4-bed dorm and the host is very thoughtful to move me to the 8-bed dorm which is bigger with higher ceiling. The bathroom is clean with good water pressure. They have laundry service at 40.000vnd/kg but if you want to handwash, they also have detergent and a nice place to dry clothes. Free bicycle for you to roam around Trang An street.

Set in Ninh Binh, within 21 km of Bai Dinh Temple and 28 km of Phat Diem Cathedral, City Garden Hostel offers accommodation with a garden and free WiFi throughout the property as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is located 700 metres from Ninh Binh Stadium, 15 km from Thung Nham Bird Park Ecotourism and 1.5 km from Ninh Binh Train Station. The accommodation provides a tour desk, luggage storage space and currency exchange for guests.

The location is in the center but all the nature activities are outside the city. So you probably want to choose something near tam coc or trang an. But if you wanna stay in the center, this place is the best. The people are very kind there. Usually the bus arrives in early morning and the check-in is at 2pm. So the nice lady gives everyone blanket and pillow and you can sleep before check-in! I really respect it so much! Thank you.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location, amazing staff, fantastic breakfast. Cheap bicycle rental. We were able to use the pool and shower facilities in the evening even after checking out in that morning. Staff gave us a care package of bananas and water for our train journey that night. Can't recommend enough. Wish we'd stayed longer!

    Fantastic place to stay. Nice and quiet, beautiful pool, cold beer. Tim is a fantastic host with a big smile. Great location for all the Ninh Bình highlights. We hired scooters and felt very safe on the roads as they were pretty quiet. The rice fields nearby are beautiful to ride the free push bikes through. Highly recommend!!

    Without any doubt it is THE BEST hostel I've stayed in South East Asia, and I stayed in a lot of them through 6 months traveling. The bed! King size super comfy mattress, it feels like you have your own room. Everything is big here, swimming pool, lobby, room, beds, bathroom, varied breakfast. Cheap motor and bicycle rental. Lovely owner and manager. Super clean, short walk to the main road, great value. Exceptional. I want to stay here forever, 6 star ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Such a lovely family running a very clean, comfortable homestay in a really great location in a quiet village near trang an (but still with restaurants). All the family went out of their way to be welcoming and helpful and didn't get annoyed when we checked in at 5am, kept our bags safe while we borrowed a scooter to go to cuc phuong overnight and even gave us water and bananas for the journey. Also the food was the cheapest around and very tasty and fresh!

    Very nice hosts. Rooms were relatively small but there was a curtain around the bed and a safe. Otherwise the hostel was rather basic, but had everything necessary (don’t expect a luxury hostel with bunk beds though). The host drove me to the Bai Dinh Pagoda and back and organised taxis whenever I needed them. The hostel is outside of the main city, so a perfect place for people who enjoy the calm, not recommended for people who want the bustling sounds of a city around them.

    - location is spot on, just off the main road, but I'm very central tam coc - staff very accommodating and helpful. Offer bus and tour bookings as well as scooter & bike hire. - cheap food and drinks on site - room was a good size and clean. Air con and wifi both worked well - pool is frequently cleaned and a nice add to the hotel - such a cheap price for what it offers, would probably pay more to stay there - Safe luggage storage area Would recommend to other budget travellers

    Honestly the best hostel I've ever been to! Especially for such a cheap price. The dorms were really conveniently built, comfy beds, great hot showers, clean facilities, beautiful pool and common areas. The kitchen is absolutely fantastic and had some of the best meals there. The massage therapist is also really really good. The staff were super helpful and friendly and it was also great to meet other travellers

    Great Location in Tam Coc. About 50m away from the biggest backpackers hostel - close enough to join in at the bar, far enough away to avoid the noise.

    Such a nice place where to stay. Big pool, lots of backpackers around to meet new friends and chill around. Hostel can provide bikes, scooters and help you with tours and information about lots of things. Personall was so kind and helpfull. Locality in middle of tam Coc is perfect and there is also bar and kitchen. Kitchen was very interesting, they cooking also western food pizzas and pasta in very good quality but you need to pay for it. Renting bike was cheap. Chilling aoround in evening is always good.
