Our stay at the Paddy was exceptional! The team from the Rezeption is super helpful and was able to help us with all our questions. We were able to book a tour on the bay as well as a transfer with them. And when we were late for our transfer, they went out of their way to get us there, even though it was our own fault. The room was super nice and super clean, with great value for the money. The breakfast selection was more than good!

Perfect balance between social hostel and a chill stay. Probably one of the best room we had during our SE Asia trip for a very cheap price. They have different activities every night (barbecue, live music). They also have a pub crawl every night to go downtown because the hostel is a bit outside of the city. Very nice common area with chickens running around. Food was delicious (but a bit pricy depending on what you get). Free buffet breakfast was the best we’ve had. The staff was really nice and helped us book a bus to our next destination. Motorbike rental next to the hostel. They have a pool and a billiard table.

Very cool aesthetic tucked away in the jungle, bamboo and thatch roof dorms/tents for a camping in nature feel. Staff super friendly and helpful. Laundry/bike rental nearby they will drop you to. Also had the coolest common room guitar I've ever come across.

The staff were very nice and the rooms were cleaned every day. The rooftop was a nice place to relax, and the restaurant downstairs was a good social place. The food (both the free breakfast and the restaurant) was delicious. I booked the night kayaking with bioluminescent planktons tour with them, and it was magnificent. The scooter rental and buses are cheap as well.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    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
