The actual hotel was alright, though the food was from hell. What was truly horrifying though was when we all arrived and were having lunch, the staff started beating up a British man who'd stayed there the night before, with sticks and poles, kicking him on the ground. The British guy spoke to us before he got beaten up, saying... More

Dirty room, terrible service, arrogance and aggressive staff... Impossible to sleep... BE CAREFULL.....

We booked ourselves onto a trip to halong bay/cat ba without checking out the hotel review here first. It certainly lived up to the reviews. Dirty bedding, towels were still wet and probably not washed judging by the smell. The lady who was running the place was like a prison guard, so rude and unpleasant. Food was below average, kitchen... More

Went to the sunflower hotel as part of a 2 day halong bay tour. Would have slept on the street if I had known better. The sheets and blankets had cigarette holes in them and were filthy. The shower was salt water instead of fresh water. All we wanted to do was sleep from an exhausting day and night and... More

So far, this has been the worst hotel we have had in Vietnam. We payed 50 USD for a 3 day trip, including a 2 star hotel, beeing Sunflower 2. It was nothing but a 2 star hotel. Food was poor and not enough, staff was unfriendly, the room had fungus on the wall because of humidity. Avoid this place!!!

Not only is Cat ba island a complete dump, but this hotel is terrible. The TV's and phones in the rooms do not work and are only for show. The food is disgusting, the rooms are crap, and on the top floor there is an incredibly loud bar that blasts music all night. Do not come here unless you want... More
