Really good Spa Experience

During my stay, I booked several treatments at the spa. The services were among the best I've experienced, with a tranquil atmosphere and skilled therapists. I highly recommend booking in advance, as the spa can get busy.

Delicious Dining Options

The breakfast buffet at the hotel was amazing, offering a good assortment of western and Vietnamese hot specialties. I especially enjoyed the made-to-order eggs and a variety of fresh juices. It was the perfect start to each day.

Great In-Room Entertainment

The room was equipped with plenty of TV channels, which was especially appreciated during the rainy days. It was nice to kick back and relax while watching our favorite shows after a long day of exploring.

I had a memorable stay at The Essence Hotel, which began a bit rocky due to some noisy families, but the staff's excellent customer service turned our experience around. The rooms were spacious and clean with great views over the rice fields. The location was convenient for exploring nearby attractions, and the dining options, especially breakfast, were truly impressive. However, the noise from outside could be disruptive at times, especially in the morning.

Our stay at the hotel was truly wonderful! The room we had boasted an incredible view of the rice fields and a lovely balcony to enjoy it from. The staff were remarkably kind and went out of their way to assist us, although sometimes they seemed a bit over-eager with questions. The location was peaceful and away from the bustling areas, which we appreciated, yet it was still easy to get to town. Dining options were plentiful with a fantastic breakfast each morning. Overall, a quality experience, but the service could use a little fine-tuning in approach.

I was pleasantly surprised by the range of gluten-free options that catered to my dietary needs, and the overall dining experience was fantastic. However, while the hotel was lovely, the breakfast could use more exciting flavors, and the walk to the town was longer than I had anticipated.
