"We are happy with our stay. Room temperature control works, hot water comes right out no waiting. Room is big and very clean. Right in the middle of the pagoda and we were able to roam around all day!!!"

"We (family of four (2 + 2 adult children)) stayed for 2 nights in June.
Location: hotel is located away from the main tourist area and so nowhere is walkable. The hotel does have bicycles free to use which we took to cycle through some rice fields to a local village (few km round trip and flat).
Rooms: large and clean. Bathrooms the same. Still with small towels - like the rest of Vietnam hotels it seems.
Pool was lovely - water warm, large towels provided and drinks available.
Restaurant -...

"Athena Resort is a fantastic unique hotel in Ninh Binh, the little house style accommodation feels like a home away from home and the pool facilities are expansive. The staff were fantastic including helping us to confirm details on sleeper buses we were taking to the next leg of our trip. The resort is standalone so is extremely quiet and tranquil with the small village of Tam Coc not too far away (20 min walk down a single road over the rice paddies), or a quick taxi / bike ride. Highly...

"If you are looking for a Four Season style hotel then this is not your spot. But if you are looking for “glamping” with gorgeous nature around then this is it. Most notably is the hot shower runs out after about 10 minutes. So this is what I mean by “glamping” But otherwise a great serene place with amazing views of Ninh Binh mountains on the backdrop. Lucas (the hotel manager) was amazing as was the rest of the workers. The fish ponds around added so much to the taste of being the nature. The dogs are friendly and often came to say hello to us. We are dog people so we enjoyed meeting them. "
"Ninh Binh is simply EPIC! We have been several times, and love this neck of the woods. Coming from Hanoi, this gem of a destination is the perfect place to rest, recharge, and listen to nature. And there is no better place to unplug than Jiva Hoa Lu Retreat and Resort. The staff are the most professional, the grounds are well kept, and the scenery is second to none. We enjoyed the spa as the treatments were world class and the therapists were so friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was surprisingly delicious, as the breakfast buffet was on point, and the dinner was spectacular. We even celebrated a birthday and the staff was particularly attentive to making sure the celebration was so special. We took part in a private tea ceremony, and I think this was one of the highlights of our stay. They offered an E-Bike private tour which we took advantage of, and it was so fun! The benefit of staying at Jiva Hoa, is that it is off the beaten path, and yet, the staff offer a buggie/golf cart shuttle to town any time that it is needed. The resort uses an app which was a cool feature to communicate with the staff for any needs. There are plenty of hotels and homestays within the Ninh Binh area, however, if you are looking for a luxury stay which will blow you away, look no further than Jiva Hoa. It is worth every VND! We will definitely be back."
"The room was large and very quiet. The room had an individual spa pool which was a good way to relax after a day of sight seeing.
The lady that runs the resort is very understanding, cheerful and makes you feel very welcome.
The resort is ideally located to the sights and an easy stroll to many cafes and restaurants.
The resort is away from the busy Tam Coc area which makes it peaceful."
"Everything stood out, the STAFF were amazing and caring people. The location close to all. The food wonderful. Room comfortable quiet and spacious and very clean. Such an accommodating staff for your every need. We highly recommend this hotel. Small, quiet, close to all, clean. Just great!"
"The lodge was magical! The staff was helpful and attentive. The property was beautiful and well maintained including the room and pool/common area. The food was amazing no the for dinner and breakfast and they had a nice selection of wine! The massage was excellent and the price was wonderful. We loved our stay here and wish we could have stayed longer "
