Reading some of the previous reviews, I'm wondering if everyone is talking about the same hotel I just stayed in or whether there are two Congfu Hotels? I stayed at the Congfu for one night, for the big market the next morning. I paid $20 for my room - I could've stayed cheaper elsewhere I'm sure but the room was... More

Hotel was good but based on reviews from others we could pay less than 20$ per night. The view from the room recommended by Lonely Planet was great but you cannot expect a lot from animal market from a window. we were surprised about comments from other travellers which we read after our trip. Overall we had a good experience... More

We travelled for one month in Vietnam and this hotel was definitely the worst that we had. Staff: one person only at the reception was able to speak a very basic English, so he was able to give us a very cold welcoming.

Two nights at the congfu hotel, the room is clean if a little basic. Television, phone, wifi and aircon. At 15 dollars a night, it is not the cheapest in town, but between two it doesn't break the bank. Staff are friendly, the restaurant caters for tourists, there are better in town. My only gripe is the bed, it's harder... More

Booked this as a walk in following a debacle with San Mao Hotel (reviewed separately). Rooms are large and very clean. Beds in common with many Vietnam hotels were very hard but you do get used to this. Bathroom also spacious with shower over the bath and plenty of hot water (but you need to allow the water to run...
