Garrya Mu Cang Chai

Garrya Mu Cang Chai

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at Garrya Hotel in northern Vietnam was meant to last just four days, but we fell so deeply in love with the place that we extended our visit to nine unforgettable days. Surrounded by breathtaking rice terraces and flowing streams, the resort offers a perfect balance of nature, tranquility, and refined design. The elegant bamboo cottages, with their soaring thatched ceilings, are beautifully crafted, and every detail—from the luxurious linens and soft towels to the stylish bathroom—reflects exceptional care and quality. The spacious resort, outstanding cuisine, and world-class spa created an experience of complete relaxation and renewal. Every meal was beautifully presented and full of flavor. What truly made Garrya unforgettable was its remarkable team. Their warmth, professionalism, and genuine kindness made us feel at home from the very first moment. This was far more than a hotel stay—it was an experience filled with beauty, peace, and heartfelt hospitality that will remain with us forever. Revital Lev Ari"

" We stayed at the Le Champ resort for 3 nights in the end of October and were absolutely enchanted by every aspect of this beautiful destination. As senior travelers first time in Vietnam, we naturally were concerned with many things: how are we going to reach this off the bitten track resort, how to get back to Hanoi without car and so on, as we were looking for comfort, tranquility, and authentic experiences—and Le Champ delivered! From the moment we arrived, the staff treated us with warmth and professionalism trying to foresee every need we might have. Every detail was thoughtfully taken care of, making us feel both pampered and at home. Their genuine smiles and readiness to assist added a personal touch that we truly appreciated. We must particularly mention and sincerely thank the office manager Mr. Henry Minh Thien, who took care of us as if we were his long-awaited relatives: he had arranged a bus to Hanoi for us right from the resort, explaining many small details about the surroundings. Our advice to anyone thinking about staying in this wonderful resort is to contact him directly as he speaks fluent English. The culinary experience was wonderful! Dining there was not just eating—it was a cultural journey. Adjacent to the resort is an impressive sports camp that adds a unique and impressive dimension to the stay. We left with desire to return.
