Nice hostel, really nice staff. Kind of party but crowd was quite young when we were there. Pub crawls every night at 10.30 pm. Room is cheap but in Cat Ba town you can get even cheaper. They have a pool/table football table and a swimming pool. Every night free beer is great.

My stay at Woodstock Jungle Camp was excellent. From the first moment, I felt welcomed by the friendly staff, always attentive to my every need. The place exudes tranquility, surrounded by mountains, ideal for resting or reconnecting. Access is very easy, even by motorbike. The cabin I stayed in exceeded my expectations: comfortable, clean, and with impeccable facilities. The restaurant's food was also a huge plus: everything I tried was delicious. Without a doubt, this is a place I would choose again. Highly recommended if you're looking for an authentic and relaxing experience in Cat Ba.

I really enjoyed staying at The One hostel. They offer very tasty breakfasts, and the staff is very friendly and helpful. Also, I enjoyed the rooftop jacuzzi and various activities organized by the hostel, such as quizzes and yoga classes. The hostel also has video games and a pool table, and I saw many travelers doing that, which is also nice, and makes the stay a memorable experience.

Location is very good. It is right at water front with good water and square views. Dorm bed is very big. Spacious. I especially like the reading light and the bright light. In addition, I like the hooks for hanging up towels, glasses and some small items. It also has a locket and shellvies nearby your pillow. They are useful. Bonus point: they provide complimentary breakfast each morning. Shower and toilet are in each dorm. It is convenient at night.

    Best hostel I've stayed regarding the room. Big comfy bed in a private pod, lots of storage, private locker, power sockets, small light.. A/C and fan in the room. 1 bathroom for 6 beds in the female only dorm. Great location too, so don't forget to enjoy the rooftop. The staff at the bar is very attentive. The girl at the reception had a great level of English and was very helpful unlike some of her colleagues downstairs which could use some hospitality training..

    Great location, amazing breakfast and the staff went over and above to organise everything for us. They booked our boat tour of Ha Long Bay and organised bus to Ninh Binh. The food in the downstairs restaurant was great and reasonably priced and they had good music on every night. We had tried to book another well-known hostel in the area which was sold out, but I'm glad we ended up here as it had a much more traditional 'backpacker' type vibe than that place 😀

    The best hostel I have stayed in so far, the room and facilities were really good and clean. The staff are very friendly and helpful, helped us in booking tours, transport and what to do while we were here. The dog is also very adorable as well, in a great location in the heart of Cat Ba, we added on a night because it was so nice
