Cat Ba Emerald Lake View is a 2-star hotel on Cat Ba Island, with rooms that overlook the mountains or the lake. The hotel sits in Cat Ba town, a short walk from Tung Thu Beach, and suits travellers who want a simple, comfortable base on the island rather than a large resort.
The rooms are air-conditioned, with private bathrooms and bidets, and each includes a work desk, free toiletries, slippers, an electric kettle and a wardrobe. The range runs from a 25 m² Double Room with Mountain View, with one double bed, to rooms for four guests with two double beds, including the Deluxe Double or Twin Room with Lake View. The King Room with Lake View offers a large king-size bed for two guests.
Rooms are split between mountain and lake views, which makes the view the clearest difference between them. The hotel suits couples and small groups who want an easy base near the beach rather than resort-style facilities. Reception staff speak English and Vietnamese, and check-in runs from 13:00 to 22:00.
The five room types fall into two groups. Two rooms are for two guests: the Double Room with Mountain View, which is 25 m² with one double bed, and the King Room with Lake View, built around a large king-size bed. Three rooms sleep up to four guests with two double beds each: the Deluxe Double or Twin Room with Lake View, the Twin Room with Mountain View and the Double Room with Two Double Beds.
Every room has air conditioning and a private bathroom with a bidet, and comes with free toiletries and slippers. The main difference between the rooms is the view: mountain views in the Double Room with Mountain View and the Twin Room with Mountain View, lake views in the King Room and the Deluxe Double or Twin Room.
At 25 m², this double room has one double bed for two guests and a mountain view. Its private bathroom has a shower, bidet and hairdryer, and the room also has a flat-screen TV and a desk.
