Featuring a private bathroom with a shower and a hairdryer, certain rooms at the hostel also offer a mountain view. At Catba Buffalo Hostel each room comes with air conditioning and a safety deposit box. Perfect balance between social hostel and a chill stay. Probably one of the best room we had during our SE Asia trip for a very cheap price. They have different activities every night (barbecue, live music). They also have a pub crawl every night to go downtown because the hostel is a bit outside of the city. Very nice common area with chickens running around. Food was delicious (but a bit pricy depending on what you get). Free buffet breakfast was the best we’ve had. The staff was really nice and helped us book a bus to our next destination. Motorbike rental next to the hostel. They have a pool and a billiard table.

The cabin I stayed in exceeded my expectations: comfortable, clean, and with impeccable facilities. The restaurant's food was also a huge plus: everything I tried was delicious. Without a doubt, this is a place I would choose again. Highly recommended if you're looking for an authentic and relaxing experience in Cat Ba.
