Hotel is old with outdated bathroom with a disgusting & moldy shower curtain. Bed and pillow very firm - felt like sleeping on a floor. Receptionists are friendly, but barely speak English, which caused some issues with our airport transportation booking.

Misleading

Pros: Beautiful spacious rooms with king size beds. Cons: Hotel advertised that they had a spa and fitness facility. Their staff old me it was closed When I asked where it was. When I looked for it and couldn't find it they then told informed me they didn't have one.... very dissapointing. Location is terrible, surrounded by a shanty ghetto.

Not much to do

I book the hotel since there was a SPA and a pool, well none of them where working [Don't know if Hotels.com or hotel not showing the right information] I went in low season and really there is no need to stay in Halong Bay, I would recommend to take a tour from Hanoi [day trip, 1 night or 2 in the Boats]. There is no much to do and the closer airport is 2-3 hrs away [around 50-60 USD] Definitely I recommend the Halong bay experience in the ocean, but in the city not much to do

not bad but stop acting 5 star

hotel is not as big a deal from the main road and "beach" as others said. the hotel was good, the pool is an after thought that is in fact out front/side of hotel but we enjoyed it very much. maybe just because we are experienced travellers and and are grateful when we have things like a pool and an excellent view from what you paid (not allowed to say how much but it was great) The people in Halong area were not at all nice and I would not go back to the area at all. wish I had just been happy seeing pics of it for all the hassle getting there and back (not an easy ride there on shared mini-bus)

Fantastic!

Really great stay! Room a lot bigger than we thought! Service was great! Rooms cleaned daily, bath robes, slippers etc. Surrounding area has everything you need at all different price ranges. Night market and beach are less than a minute walk from hotel and there are plenty of tour places around with the boat port (where the bay tours lead from) is within walking distance too. Definitely recomend!

Pleasant stay at Starcity

Hotel location was great but not beside of the main road. Need to walk in around 5 mins and walking distance to Halong night market. Service was excelent and friendly staff.

Friendly Hotel, good for one night

Starcity shares the problem of the whole region: Nobody will stay there longer than two nights - people visit Halong Bay on boat cruise (1 or two nights) and have one overnight stay before or after the cruise. Starcity is nice and rather well located, as a taxi can bring you anywhere you like. Breakfast was ok, but not very western, as they accomodate 95% Chinese and other Aseans. But a backpacker can easily survive - rooms are big enough, the view is ok (if the weather is on your side), staff is friendly (but speaks no English) and the restaurant in the hotel and all restaurants around the hotel are good and cheap. Starcity has got the charme of the seventies, but this common to almost all hotels in the area. Tourism industry has changed the flair over the years. Finally, we can recommend it and would come back.

Location is alright only

Hotel is in a small road with piece of empty land in front of it. Still relatively close to night market. Pool pictures on website are so deceiving, its a standalone outdoor pool by the side of the carpark. Breakfast is acceptable. Hotel mainly catered for tour groups.

øv oplevelse i bund og grund.

Det var under al kritik. Absolut ikke som annonceret, damen i receptionen forsøgte at score ekstra penge ved at give misvisende informationer omkring priser ved ekstra overnatning. Byggelarm hele døgnet, og dårlig morgenmad. Hotellet har så også skiftet navn midt i det hele, således at det hedder aloha hotel istedet for Starcity hotel. Der var ikke baby seng som annonceret på hjemmeside, der var ikke babystol ved morgenmaden. Morgenmaden var mangelfuld og kedelig. Kan ikke anbefale dette sted.

3泊しました。良かったのは朝食。ベトナムコーヒーは癖になる美味しさでした。ホテルスタッフもフレンドリーで、コンシェルジュ含めいろいろと相談に乗ってもらいました。良くなかったのは設備面。レストランは1階にしかないし、SPAも見当たりません。ランドリーサービスを利用しようと何度かコールしましたが、一度も出てもらえませんでした。
