Jessie

Ha Long Bay is amazing with breath taking views, people so friendly. We have not spent time in the city but the infrastructure looks fabulous

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Probably not worth staying in Halong City itself in the low season not much is happening unless you just want a night to relax before or after the cruise

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

Ha Long Bay itself is beautiful but I don't recommend more than a day trip or 2 days if you can stay somewhere nice with a pool e.t.c there isn't a lot to do in Ha Long Bay

1/5 - Terrible

Verified traveller

Abysmal, nothing open and not an inviting place!! Loved the trip to Halong Bay and the cable car, apart from that we weren’t impressed with the rest of Halong.

1/5 - Terrible

Verified traveller

Not the real Vietnam. Cancun or gold coast.

3/5 - Okay

I didn’t go to Ha Long City
