We booked at short notice after a change of plans and found this hotel a really good choice. It is close to everything but was in a relatively quiet spot. The facilities were all good and the family that runs it were lovely and very welcoming and helped us sort out laundry, taxis etc

Everything was great. Helpful staff (they dont speak English, but with Google Translator everything was fine). The room was clean and the bed comfy. They let me check in early and check out late with no additional charge. They helped me book my bus tickets and made sure I would end up in the right one. They also upgraded me to a nicer room since the hotel wasnt full. So far defenitley the best budget accomondation I had in Vietnam!

Cat Ba’s a proper little adventure — all dramatic limestone...

Cat Ba’s a proper little adventure — all dramatic limestone cliffs and buzzy harbour life. The national park is stunning, if you don’t mind a good hike, and a boat trip round Lan Ha Bay is an absolute must. The town itself is a bit scruffy and touristy in parts, but in a likeable, no-fuss kind of way. Loads of decent grub about, especially if you fancy fresh seafood. Not the polished resort experience, mind — it’s more backpacks and beers than poolside cocktails. But if you’re after brilliant scenery, easy boat access to the islands, and a laid-back vibe, it’s spot on. Just pack your sense of adventure and some trainers. Well worth a few nights.

There is a big building development in the old harbour, but the beaches are in wonderful bays unaffected by the works. There is also a great bus in the town at night and great restaurants. Lots to see and do, and easy to arrange 1 day or 1/2 boat tours of the amazing archipelago.

Coming back to Viet Nam after spending most of my life in...

Coming back to Viet Nam after spending most of my life in Australia always feels a bit surreal, and Cat Ba ended up being one of the highlights of this trip home. I was born in Viet Nam but grew up mostly in Sydney, so every time I return, I’m half-tourist, half-local. Cat Ba captured that mix perfectly — familiar in some ways, but still full of surprises. The island itself is stunning. The mix of limestone mountains, quiet fishing villages and that incredibly calm, green water hits different when you’ve been away for so long. I’ve travelled around Australia quite a bit, and while we’ve got beautiful beaches, there’s something special about cruising past those karst cliffs at sunrise — it reminds you why this part of the world is so unique. What surprised me most was how easy everything has become. Tours, transport, even food options — all way more organised compared to years ago. But the local vibe is still there. I had seafood on the waterfront that tasted like something straight out of my childhood, and the island pace is nice and slow in the best way. That said, it’s not perfect. Some parts of town get busy and a bit chaotic, especially around the main pier, and service can be hit-or-miss depending on where you go. But honestly, that’s all part of the charm if you’ve got the right mindset. After living overseas so long, I’ve learned to take it in stride. All up, Cat Ba was exactly what I needed — a bit of nostalgia, a bit of adventure, and a reminder of where I’m from. If you’re a Viet-overseas kid like me coming back to reconnect, Cat Ba is absolutely worth a few days. It made me feel both at home and on holiday at the same time, and that’s pretty hard to beat.

Just spent a few days in Cat Ba and honestly, it was super chill. The island feels way less crowded than Ha Long Bay but still has those gorgeous limestone cliffs and blue water vibes. I loved taking the boat tour around Lan Ha Bay — quieter, cleaner, and really peaceful. Seafood here is fresh and cheap, especially the grilled squid. The town itself is a bit touristy, but if you rent a scooter and explore the national park, it gets amazing real quick. Definitely worth visiting if you want nature without too much hype.

Cat Ba Island was a fantastic getaway.

Cat Ba Island was a fantastic getaway. The scenery is stunning, with towering limestone cliffs and calm, clear waters — Lan Ha Bay in particular felt peaceful and less crowded than Ha Long. We spent our days exploring the national park and renting scooters to see hidden beaches and viewpoints, which was a lot of fun. The town itself is relaxed, with plenty of good little cafés and seafood restaurants to refuel after a day of adventure. People were friendly and welcoming, and it felt easy to get around. Overall, Cat Ba is perfect for nature lovers who want a mix of activity and chill time — definitely worth a visit.

Enjoyed Cat Ba, but don’t go on others reviews for accomodation, check out places fully, we changed places twice and would have changed again but decided to stick it out, do not accept a bad room, ask for one which you believe you have paid for and as it was described when you booked it. Don’t book for a weekend or public holiday, the Vietnamese flood the town. We found best value places to eat and drink, cheapest and great food Oasis restaurant, The big man for good western food.

The whole experience felt like a dream! You have to take a quick boat ride to get to the island, but the hostel arranges everything for you, making it super easy and stress-free. The location is stunning, with a private beach and great facilities. What really made the stay unforgettable was Alex, one of the staff members - he’s absolutely amazing. He spent time with our group, shared a lot about Vietnamese culture, and really helped create a warm and friendly atmosphere. I originally booked for 2 nights but could’ve easily stayed longer!

The moment I stepped into Paradise Cat Ba Hotel, I knew I had found a hidden gem. The rooftop pool offers breathtaking panoramic views of the island, making it feel like you're immersed in nature. The vibrant colors of the Sky Bar in the evening create a romantic atmosphere. My husband and I are really pleased to travel here. The food here is not really rich. I hope that the hotel will improve the menu and breakfast quality to meet the diverse needs of guests

Thang Long Hotel Cat Ba offers more than just a great location—it provides genuine care. I fell ill during my stay, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure I was comfortable. Their kindness and attentiveness made all the difference. The hotel itself is well-situated, making it easy to explore the island. But it’s the people here who truly make it special. A heartfelt thank you to the team for their exceptional hospitality.
