Truly lives up to its name - a real diamond! The owners are absolutely fantastic and couldn’t do enough for us! A genuinely kind family who make you feel incredibly welcome and comfortable. The hotel itself is brand new, only 1 year old. It’s modern and has all amenities you could need - aircon, heater, fan, smart tv, fridge, hairdryer. The room was huge and spotlessly clean. The balcony was lovely and there is a roof terrace in the 4th floor which has beautiful views of the area. Excellent value for money! The hosts were incredibly kind and invited us for dinner with them which was excellent! Breakfast is free and the owner made me traditional Vietnamese breakfasts which were delicious! We rented a motorbike from the hotel for 150k per day to visit the local sites. Overall the best hotel experience we have had in all of Asia. 10/10 would...

The rooms are fully equipped with new furniture, there is even a heater for rainy days when could be cold and not comfortable for staying in the bungalows. The room was pretty clean and maintained. Just the matresses are very hard which is very in commonly around Asia. The location is in a quiet village neighbourhood among the locals with a few restaurants and small convinient shops but is not the touristy area. It is short distance from the main landmarks and Tam Coc is 5-6 km away. The hotel is run by a lovely family and all members were very kind and helpful in meeting all my needs. You can easily communicate using Google Translate :) They can provide a free bicycle and do the laundry service, prepare the meals. I highly...
Read moreThe people are really nice. We had a two night stay and had two rooms. The hotel itself is kind of grubby. The bathroom floors were always wet due to A/C draining into the bathroom. There was a bathtub along with a shower. They don't clean the rooms every day. They say that they serve pho for breakfast but we never saw any because we were out and about before 7 AM. The beds were OK. Very nice views from the balcony area. Conclusion: if I get up to the Ninh Binh area again I will look for a different hotel but would stay...
