Hanoi to Da Nang Destination Reviews

DA
Beds were very hard and thin. Not comfortable for sleeping. Luckily we had the cabin to ourselves. DeLuxe cabin turned out to be standard cabin. The host Cee Kay was very friendly and helpful.

It was a great experience. The only hitch was our door didn't lock but when we told the train guy he (had a translator app and) told us he would keep a close eye on us and not to worry so we felt happy and reassured.

Very expensive, for a dirty and uncomfortable compartment! The vip part was a bag with a banana a pack of chips and 2 drinks in it. People just randomly openend my door and at the point where the old lady next to me peed in a bucket I questioned why I paid 71€ for this trip. The beds were also really hard and I could hear the person in the room next to me clip their toenails so I could not really sleep.

I awoke around 5am to find my legs covered in insect bites and itching, having spent the day in a couple of bars with a friend, not being near vegetation, and wearing chinos and socks all day I can only ascertain this came from the train. The bites are severe and have had to seek advice from a pharmacist to aid recovery but my legs looks a mess, 24 bites in all only on lower leg. I expected to have more of a food service offered in cabin or guidance to a buffet car, only a bag of potato chips, small waffle, soft banana, water and Coca Cola was left at the start of the journey so nothing else to eat from 20:50 Thursday to 15:00 Friday when I checked in to my hotel. I have pictures of the damage the bites have done should you wish to view

PS
We booked for 2 people in a 4 beds cabin, and got upgraded in a deluxe private cabin. The journey was comfortable, the scenery wonderful. It was a bit hard to sleep because of the train moving a lot and making some noise, but that was expected. The 16hours ride felt shorter than we thought. The train left and arrived ~15minutes late but that wasnt a problem. Would book it again!

The only thing missing from this experience is a better meal. Breakfast did not live up to expectations for a VIP/Luxury Cabin.
