My stay at Green Hope Lodge was wonderful. The Cabins by the river are a delight, as it's not directly on the main road you really feel like you're in nature. Luan the manager was incredibly helpful and can organise any tour you want. I'd definitely recommend this hotel. Restaurant's food is basic but good and good value for money.

fantastic lodge.lovely room with great food.Luan was amazing arranging everything for us

there was nothing we didn’t like

Great location, within walking distance of the national park. nice breakfast and kind staff.

some things in the room didn’t work e.g. The Fan. Also only one room was given the mosquito repellent coils and nobody was given matches.

It is by the river and a relaxing place to laze around but if you enjoy hiking the park is close by.

The food could be improved upon with more tasty and better choices.

Very comfortable, clean and spacious room and beautiful surroundings. Our host was extremely attentive, helped us with the transport to and from Cat Tien, organizing tours and giving us information on how to explore the park on our own. Everything about our stay was perfect.

We loved our stay, we had an absolutely perfect time. Our hosts went above and beyond to help us, assisting us with transport to and from Cat Tien, organising fantastic tours, providing wonderful meals and our room was spotless and perfect for a family of four. Highly recommended.

Nothing

we‘re totally enjoyed the boat trip in the morning and the fact that you have the opportunity of making a decision what you rather would like to do during the day or night. Also that you not just staying directly in contact with the local family but also having the chance for a good chat with other tourists ! We loved it so much that we woke up with the gibbon singing and the location was pretty close to the national park. we would definitely come back the next time and we‘re going to recommend the location to our family and friends !

everything was fine ! :)

Although Green Hope Lodge is family run and thinly staffed, we received attentive services from Mr Luan (the main host), who spoke fluent English and patiently addressed all our questions about transportation to Cat Tien, booked taxi/bus for us where necessary, helped us to book tours at the Park Headquarters, and provided anti-leech socks and cream for the wild gibbons trekking tour. The room was equipped with basic facilities but very clean with a scenic “balcony” outside overlooking the Dong Nai river. Surprisingly there wasn’t any mosquitoes (but mosquito incense sticks and mosquito nets were nonetheless provided). We had lunch and dinner at the lodge and the meals were very yummy and reasonably priced (one third cheaper but more delicious than in the Yellow Bamboo restaurant near the Park Headquarters). Their fried rice and stir fried vegetables were outstanding. I’d highly recommend Green Hope Lodge.

Great location close to the national park with lots of cool places to hang out on the riverside. We saw a bunch of nice birds even at the property or from its riverside lookout points. The morning singing of the gibbons from the forest opposite the river is unforgettable and this is one of the best places to enjoy it. For our jungle tour (bike and hike), staff provided us anti-leech socks, which are a necessity in wet parts of the forest, so make sure to use them. Very nice and highly efficient staff, they not only organized pick-up and drop-off from/to the bus, birding and boating tours, but also made bus reservations for us to our next stop in Can Tho, which saved us a lot of effort of changing bus stations and buses in Ho Chi Minh City. They also have a good brochure on things to do in and around the national park, and their tours are at very reasonable prices. Will definitely come back one day!

This family run Lodge is in an idillic environment and has a great view to enjoy from the rooms (or even better from the hammocks!) The room was spacious and clean, with all the comforts, the Wi-Fi ist just incredible, I felt like was in the middle of the jungle..but having high quality zoom calls. A digital nomad dream! The manager spoke great English and helped us finding and arranging all the activities we wanted to do in the National Park (both self guided and with a guide) and even brought us breakfast inside the park for us not to go back to the lodge and have to pay the entry fee again. We did the boat tour, birdwatching, gibbon trek and crocodile lake hike and would recommend all of them. The food is simple and good with a lot of choice, even for us, vegetarians (and..we loved their French fries) Getting there was so easy! Green hope..to come back again!

The host is a fluent English speaker and was very helpful in providing information. The location is conveniently close to the entrance of Cat Tien National Park. They serve good breakfast, lunch and dinner. (They even provide a lunch package if you go on a hike)

11/10 customer service, staff were so so helpful. Lots of vegetarian options at the open air restaurant. Lots of beautiful gorgeous greenery and hammocks by the river. Very close to the national park where there were a combination of easy and difficult hikes and bike rides. Free bike hire.

It was located in a beautiful place. Every morning was magical just sitting down and enjoying a cuppa with the views of the river and the fauna, where you could see the monkeys playing around. The owner was supper friendly and helped us with everything we needed.

The position is amazing and the staff are super. They can book your tours in advance and they are really helpfull. I totally recomend staying here(try to stay at least 2 days because there are a lot of activities in the park)!

The homestay is in a great location, very close to the national park (you can literally hear gibbon morning calls from your bed). The host is extremely helpful with explanations on which tours you can book and which routes in the park you can explore by yourself. He also perfectly arranged our arrival and departure.

The location of Green Hope Lodge is incredible with chairs and hammocks to sit right by the river. Very easy access to Cat Tien National Park and the hotel has a brilliant range of tours which can be booked. We got the local bus from Ho Chi Minh City following the instructions provided and would highly recommend this route as it dropped us off right in the village. This was a great place to stay.

nice and peaceful lodge on the river right across from the cat Tien national park. woke up to the peaceful sounds of nature from wild gibbons to bird songs, it was very relaxing.the food was great and Luan ,the son, speaks excellent English and was able to help me with all the activities I wanted to do in the park which is only a short walk from the lodge.

while the room and food at the lodge itself are a great price, the tours offered by the park are a bit expensive. just be prepared to spend a bit more than usual if ya wanna do a lot of activities in the park

Dinner (~50 k) was good! Also friendly and helpul staff that easily organized the tours for us. The host speaks very good english!

All tours are organized from the National Park so prices should be the same for different lodges. We did not do the Wild Gibbon Trek because we found it quite expensive (50$) and tour guides are not getting more out of it than from other tours. We can recommend the Eco Trail and the Rescue Center. Night Safari can be fun, but don’t expect to see much more than deer. Also,for some of the tours get cheaper the more people you are but there were very few people around when we were there.

Our stay was too good, the staff is super warm and welcoming. Luon and his parents, they treat you like family and makes you feel home.

The place is great. The host is so helpful, friendly, and honest that you don't have to think twice before booking Green Hope. I highly recommend.

I suggest the host to offer more local food options at his restaurant. Probably it's hard to make so many things as the place is run by the family but it would be great if they extend their menu one day.

The lodge was amazing. The bed had mosquito nets which were perfect for night time. The bathroom was very large and nice. You couldn't get a better location - just a short walk to the entrance of the national park and right by the river which was wonderful to watch with all the wildlife. The food was plentiful and cheap, and tasted delicious. The owner was the most helpful host we've met - he organised everything for us from exploring the park, getting us a packed lunch for the day and making sure we could get to and from the lodge on the buses. During our stay there was a big rainstorm which meant the power was out for a few hours. The host offered us to have a hot shower in another lodge which had solar power since we were quite wet and cold. We don't have a bad word to say about this place - would definitely recommend staying here!

I really appreciate the owner Mr Luan that was great advice to me about the National Park as I wanted to run a marathon there. He also cleaned my motorbike that was full of mud due to my trip from HCMC. Mr Luan is a very careful man, full of attention even the one my girlfriend and I didn't ask. The food served there was high quality and excellent cooked, quite big portion for 2 people though but love the Vietnamese country side food, cooked with love! Thank you so much Mr Luan

Just the AC noise (at that time in September 2022) maybe the owner has fixed it now.

Staff are very friendly, supportive Peaceful place, near by the river Only 10 minutes walk to Nam Cat Tien Jungle Hammock is so cool, I wish to stay there all day just to listen to bird singing and watch the river flow Suggest to try Fermented Pineapple - So great! Suggest

Room decoration is poor art =)))) The alley from the gate to the hotel is full of rock which will challenge your motor driving skill Breakfast is included however there is with only 2 options, Banh Mi or instant noodle

Staff was super helpful with organising everything from day trips to bus tickets. The hotel is situated right along the river from most rooms you'll have a nice view of it. Especially at nighttime you will feel in the middle of the jungle, with all the sounds.

Nothing

could be a bit cleaner and variation on menus host very friendly and helpfull
