During low season there aren’t many activities like the advertise (no fire or karaoke). But still can meet people.

Nice atmosphere. The room was clean. The tour they offer is fine, we don’t know about other prices maybe you can find something cheaper. The staff is nice. The breakfast is good value for money. The food is good.

The rooms are not fancy, but offer everything backpackers and simple travellers need.

Super supportive and friendly staff, the hostel invites you to socialise in the common areas and offers a lovely free breakfast from the menu and free tea and coffee. Easy to book travel options or scooters, central location. For value for money it exceeded our expectations! Thank you very much!

I didn’t like that there weren’t keys to the room or places to lock up our luggage for the 8-people room. Since the door to the room wasn’t ever locked, I felt nervous about leaving my items out in the ‘open’. The bunk bed post often shook and creaked easily with any movement, but that wasn’t a big deal. I had two main issues with my stay. Firstly, I had to wait 2 hours to get confirmation on my room. I understand that I arrived 2 hours before I could check in, but it seemed that other people’s bookings were more important than mine. I watched several other large groups of people be accommodated before me, even I was traveling solo. I could understand that the hostel was very busy that day and I had booked a single bed in a big room, but still. I understand that as I wanted to leave my luggage there, it was only to cost 50k VND (if I remember correctly) to store my things until my room was ready. Therefore, I would’ve had to wait anyway. Secondly, the bathroom situation was troublesome. The shower situation is that the shower was placed openly, allowing the turned on water to splash everywhere. Since shoes aren’t allowed into the room, going to the toilet with water all over the floor wasn’t ideal. While I’m not sure if it would’ve been okay to walk around the room with flip flops/slides, it wasn’t the best setup.

The provided breakfast was pretty good, and I liked that there were vegetarian options. There was enough storage space for all my luggage, the bed came with two quilt-like blankets, and I liked the toothpaste provided.

The morning clerk was a prick. "David" if that is his real name. Went for breakfast at 7:45 and asked him how it worked and he just yelled at and pointed to a table where there was nothing. A couple of empty plates, coffee and tea. I had to figure it out by myself, half asleep what I could have. Then, when my pancakes arrived, I asked for some bananas, that had run over. 6 tiny bananas for the 8 people that were having breakfast, It seems obvious to me that was not enough. Still he yelled, again to me, to ask the couple that took 3 refusing to get more. Obviously they joined my cause and straight away complained. The lady in the kitchen, who was the only person really working listened and brought some more. Everybody has bad days, but "David" go meditate a little bit if you can't handle such a simple task.

Normal hostel. The room is a bit tight with all the bunk beds, but if you store your luggage under the bed it's ok. The food was tasty at normal price.

I liked everything.

Ha long Fancy hostel is a good and safe place to stay. Hostel is located very central, opposite to SunWorld Disneyland, behind skyscraper building. ATM, beach, supermarkets and restaurants are in a walking distance around hostel. Free wi-fi internet worked very well everywhere in the hostel. I had my breakfasts and dinners in the hostel. Clean bed with privacy curtain, socket and shelf has been provided. Please keep in mind that bed makes noise with any move or when you climb up on the bed. There were lockers in the dorm room. Elevator/Lift for travelers with suitcase was very helpful. All travelers were so sociable. We sat around the fire in the evening and chatted. Staff was very friendly and helpful. They offered Ha long bay boat tour services. Also they helped me with bus ticket to other city which made my life easier. I can highly recommend Ha long Fancy hostel as a safe, friendly and comfortably located place to stay in Ha long city. Pizza and gift from hostel team was unexpected and so sweet of them. Thank you so much.

The beds were uncomfortable and all connected by wood so the littlest of movements were felt and heard by the 5 people in the connected beds. Good spot for young crowd who want to party and not sleep

The staff were very helpful. She helped me book all my onward bus trips and also a motorcycle for my time there. She was super friendly. Hostel in a good location situated halfway between the 2 main strips. Spacious bathroom. Hot water. Good value for money. Nice breakfast in morning.

Suitable for one night and not more in my opinion. The main reason is that Ha Long City has no Charme or anything special. go to Cat Ba to experience the Ha Long Bay in a nicer way. Of course this has nothing to do with the Hostel! Still, the surrounding area is not the best and cleanest. The view from the room into the backyard was also not the best

It was okay. You will be fine staying in this Hostel. Staff was okay to very nice. I booked a cruise with them and it worked out great. The food in the restaurant, I had the veggie burger is okay

Everything the stuff especially no respect talking to me like I was giving accommodation for free and shouting on my friends for breakfast

Nothing

- the extreme heat from the room, there are only fans for each bed, which make a loud noise - the squeaking of the beds, it was absolutely awful, especially for a top bed

The people that I've met in the hostel
