We arrived late, but Mr. Strong welcomed us with a warmth that immediately made us feel at home. His open, honest, and down-to-earth personality made our stay truly special – exactly the kind of host you hope to find when travelling.
A word of advice: book your tours and bus tickets directly through Mr. Strong. We made the mistake of going with a different provider and regretted it. He knows the area, he’s honest about what’s worth it, and you can trust his recommendations – no gimmicks, no upselling.
If you’re staying in Phong Nha, The Palm Lodge is the place to be. Mr. Strong is the real deal.

The dorm was simple, spacious, and clean. The breakfast was delicious, I'm vegan and every morning they made me a delicious banh mi with tofu and vegetables. The location is perfect, and you can book tours and buses, rent a motorbike, or rent a bicycle directly from the hostel. Best of all, the owner, Mr. Strong, is friendly, thoughtful, and incredibly kind, and speaks English. He and his wonderful family made me feel right at home. Highly recommended!

Wow is the only word that comes to mind. The minute I walked into the hotel i was immediately with such warmth and kindness I knew it was going to be a good stay ! The staff are so so kind and helpful they made my experience so memorable. The beds are comfy and the view from the hotel is stunning !! This is by far the best place I’ve stayed in Vietnam and I am definitely coming back !! You can also book buses and tours from the hotel and the prices are very reasonable ! The location is also perfect, only a couple minutes walk from the bus stop !
Honestly nothing at all

Den ansvarlige på stedet super flink og nem at snakke med. Vær dog opmærksom på at der er mere hostel-vibe end hotel
Vi fik desværre et værelse der lugtede meget fugtigt og der var også problemer med kloaken der gjorde at hele værelset lugtede virkelig grimt. Vi fik tilbudt et andet værelse med det samme, som lugtede ligesådan. Til sidst fik vi en gratis opgradering af værelse til et værelse med vinduer, men der var stadig en grim lugt. Vi blev desværre skuffet når man læser alle de gode anmeldelser og stjerner. Det er selvfølgelig en super god pris og de er super søde, men jeg havde været glad for at have vist at der var næsten ingen udluftning og meget grim lugt og indeklima.
Desuden havde vi ladet aircondition stå tændt på “fan only” funktionen (vores ventilator virkede ikke så det var det eneste vi kunne gøre for at lufte ud) mens vi spiste morgenmad nedenunder. Vi fik vi at vide af værten, at han havde været oppe at slukke for strømmen på hele værelset, fordi han så at airconditionen var tændt. Vi prøvede egentligt bare at lufte ud på det fugtige værelse. Det synes vi var super mærkeligt bare at gøre, når vi havde lagt ting til opladning inden vi skulle afsted på tur i løbet af dagen.
