Dear Mr. Greg Aubin,
Yes, Muong Thanh Luxury Hotel is the best choice in Ha Nam. This hotel is within 25 mi (40 km) of Hoa Lu Ancient Capital, Trang An Scenic Landscape Complex, and Bai Dinh Pagoda. Tam Coc Bich Dong and Bai Dinh Pagoda are also within 32 mi (52 km). So we highly recommend you traveling to those mentioned sightseeing places in Ninh Binh Province. One of our travel consultants will assist you personally, please check your email within a couple of hours today.
