Republic Hostel

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Republic Hostel on Cat Ba Island, and I must say, it was an absolute delight! From the moment we arrived, we felt like part of the family. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, going above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable and enjoyable.

It's the perfect base for exploring the island and its stunning natural beauty while staying out of the busy town.

The bathrooms were acceptable, and the communal areas were perfect for chilling by the pool. Amenities: Republic Hostel offers a range of amenities, including free Wi-Fi, kitchen where you can order food from, and a delicious free breakfast spread each morning. They also organize island tours, and other activities, making it easy to experience the best of Cat Ba. Atmosphere: The hostel has a lively and social atmosphere, with regular events and activities that bring everyone together. Value: Considering the excellent facilities, friendly staff, and prime location, Republic Hostel offers incredible value for money. It's a must-stay for anyone traveling to Cat Ba Island! Overall: If you're looking for a fun, social, and relaxing stay on Cat Ba Island, Republic Hostel is the perfect choice. We can't wait to return and experience it all again!

Great environment and awesome staff, I’m really glad that we found this option during our family trip. The hotel is not too far from town and they provide scooter rental service which was very helpful.

Nice hostel with a great pool, food was delicious and Taran one of the staff members was very lovely and accommodating. Made us some delicious drinks :) thanks legend! Bikes are available to rent for the day, other staff were helpful in booking a day tour for me to Ha long.

工作人員很可愛而且友善。房間和乾淨。菜單豐富多彩。價格很優惠。周圍的風景很漂亮。我可以在哪裡租一輛摩託車自己開去了解本地人的生活，特色的風景。晚上他們還組織燒烤活動，音樂交流。這裡有一位管理員叫啊勝，好像他也是這裏的主人。他很熱情。他知道我們是華人就主動用翻譯軟件問我們需要幫什麼忙？我們想坐船去看蘭河，他就親自開車送我們到碼頭上船。晚上回來的時候他還教我們怎麼做越南傳統的春捲。他還給我們介紹吉婆島的蜜蜂啤酒。味道特別好。值得我們點個贊！！！

Short and sweet review : great location, the room was spacious with view on the mountain, outstanding English speaking staff , fantastic cocktail bar. And cherry on the cake the nice swimming pool beside the bar. I was also able to rent a motorbike at the hotel .

Very nice hostel and friendly staffs. The boat tour to Lan Ha Bay was amazing too!!! A little bit away from town so a scooter is the best way to go around. Butterfly valley is a very nice place to do a picnic, or a rock climbing trip
