Ha Lan Homestay

Great location close to both Trang An and Tam Coc. Very friendly and helpful staff who spoke excellent English. A welcome drink upon arrival along with a map and advice on activities in the local area. Breakfast included. I got a free room upgrade to nice clean room with clean bathroom and balcony. The restaurant serves dinner, lunch and drinks. I highly recommend this homestay as a base for exploring Ninh Binh. Table and tea making facilities in the room, as well as a bench and clothes hangers. A place to park your motorbike or bicycle.

Yen was waiting for my arrival and welcomed me with a refreshment. After check in, I have received information about what to do and visit, with a map prepared from Yen, with the location, the prices, tips about the parking. Was invited to join an aniversary dinner of a family member in the evening. After lunch, a delicious cooked plate, I have decided to have breakfast, lunch and dinner at Ha Lan. Excelent preparation of your choice from Yen and the family, I have enjoyed all of the menus I have ordered. Music adapted to the moment. Ha Lan is in the country side, I have found strategicaly positioned for your visits. Room was clean, cosy, with nice view, was made every day. Had everything you may need for your personal care. Pool was clean, on the other side of the road. Covered motorbike parking. Family very friendly and helpfull about any information you need. I highly recomend Ha Lan Homestay and i will return again.

Yen and her family provide a most memorable experience. The homestay is clean, comfortable, and more than adequate for a short stay in this beautiful region. The food is excellent, with a full menu available until 2200hrs every evening. The bedrooms are basic, spacious, clean, and comfortable - exactly as depicted on the website. The location of the property afforded a great opportunity to witness the daily rhythm of life in a rural hamlet. The highlight of our stay was our interaction with the host family. When words failed us, which was very often the case, online translators filled in the gaps. Highly recommended, without any reservations.

This has been the nicest place we have stayed in our entire South East Asia trip. The staff were incredibly friendly and helped us out with loads of really good tips and information. We rented a scooter from the homestay which was very easy. They did our laundry and returned it only a few hours later. The room was the biggest we have stayed in and it was very clean and we were given fresh towels and water every day. The bed was massive and very comfortable. The location is so beautiful and by scooter you can travel into the old town/to all of the major attractions (eg. boat tours/pagodas) easily and quickly. The breakfast each morning was delicious and really filling. We also ate a few meals here and they were all lovely as well. The stay was also insanely good value. I would really recommend a stay with Ha Lan. Thank you so much Yen and the family!

The room is simply decorated but beautiful and clean, the bathroom is spotless. The included breakfast was delicious with many options. The homestay also has a restaurant with many delicious dishes. The location is very close to Trang An and Hang Mua, convenient for transportation. The highlight of this place is that Yen and her family are very cheerful and friendly, they will always support whatever you need. If I return to Ninh Binh, I will still choose Ha Lan Homestay.
