It was a coincident that we spent a night at the lodge. We wanted to get a good deal at Bai Chay boat station for a boat trip, but the many boat-trip dealers confused us with the price and the offers. We saw a "local" german guy at the docks, whom we asked, what to do. He was the owner... More

I had many business trips to Halong city and had a habit of having lunch on Tuan Chau island on the day coming back Hai Phong city. A really nice restaurant with wide bay view. The old-style houses are stretching from hillside to the beach. There's 2 swimming pools (one big, one small) - enough for me. I had a... More

Visited it July 2011 for 3 nights. The Lodge is a little abroad from Halong Bay traffic, but Halong Bay is easy to access. Clean, gentle staff, good dinner choices. Hotel is operated by German-Vietnamese couple. Nice view over bay because hotel is situated at a hill. Excellent place to relax after visiting Hanoi and good alternative to boat overnight... More

The staff was very friendly and did their best to make you feel welcome. the rooms were decent. The bedding was comfortable, towels were... More

We loved our stay at the Viethouse lodge! A beautiful location, romantic rooms and wonderful owners with fluent German, Vietnamese and English. The rest of the staff did not speak a word of English, which made ordering food an interesting adventure, but since everything on the menu was so delicious, this was not a serious problem. If you want to... More

I would like to preface this critique by stating that if you read my other reviews, you will find i am quite easy to please and often give glowing reviews. The average hotel rating I give is at least a 4, if not a 5. My experience at Viethouse Lodge was so horrible, however, that I basically feel obligated to... More

Having experienced wonderful hospitality at our well-equipped hotel in Hanoi for the same price, we did not get a similar welcome here unfortunately. A little more attention to detail, especially given the very cold, wet weather we experienced, would have been good. The restaurant area was cold. There was a log-burning fire which the owners and their friends were using... More
