Beds reasonably comfortable and toilets clean. Train left and arrived on time.

Everything ran smoothly and the beds are quite comfortable.
Servise on board is a bit shit. They offer you a free hot drink to arrive in the morning just before you get to Hanoi; tea, coffee or hot chocolate. However, the hot chocolate isn’t actually free. So we got a little scammed into paying 25k each for a hot chocolate, never going to argue that at 5am – they know this.

Good experience. If you come with your friend (4 people), It is really good.

Beds are fine, some carriages looked more luxurious than ours. Quite difficult getting tickets as no one had any idea where to go and the train itself is v loud/stops a lot, don’t expect too much sleep…

Happy that the train ran on time and we had a bed. The air conditioning when we first got on and first got up was so cold. In general the air conditioning was very loud. The chain that was used to hold the upper bunk that had been removed kept hitting the wall to make more noise that was except able. The drinks list was not clear. The snack of cookies where not good. However the worst part was the toilet it was grubby and by morning the seat was hanging off and no toilet roll left.

The woman who works in the king express ticket office is the rudest person I’ve ever met. Tried making us pay more for the ticket we had already paid for and said we couldn’t have the beds we requested. Once we finally got the ticket we had the beds we requested anyway so she was just trying to make us pay more to change. The train its self was really good and very comfortable the only bad thing was the toilet was blocked on our carriage so had to walk through the next carriage and use theirs. The ticket pick up destination that 12go Asia give you is wrong because the office has moved to across the street so that needs to be changed

There was no seat number on the ticket issued by 12goasia which caused confusion at boarding. My name was also incorrect on the passenger list – boarding was not guaranteed because of this and took 45 minutes as a result.

We were very happy with the trip. We had 2 beds in a 4 bed cabin. It was clean. Sure it’s small but we didn’t bring a lot of luggage. We fell asleep quickly and got lots of sleep. It was a bit noisy and rocky but didn’t bother us. People trying to sell stuff were a bit annoying. We didn’t use the toilets so can’t report on those.

Ok the “train” is actually a railway cart, using the words luxury or delux is not going to change the facts its a sleeper cart from the 70is and has no sound dented what so ever.
Be advice take the sleeper bus or rent a cab it’s cheaper and more luxury.

We had heard lots of negative stories about the sleeper train, but King Express surpassed our expectations. It was clean and comfortable. We paid for a two berth cabin which we thought was worth the expense to have our own private space. Toilet wasn’t great but better than expected. For value for money I think the Sapa Express limousine bus is a better option – quicker, cheaper and by travelling during the day you get to spend the night in a bed that’s not moving anywhere.

Cabin was well cleaned and in decent conditions, bedsheets were good. The whole coach was terribly cold. Cabin had no room for luggage. Toilets had no water and were flooded.

This was our return trip by train from Sapa to Hanoi and, of course, we compared the experience to the first trip. First, we did not understand why they put the AC to maximum. The temperature outside was fine, no need of AC. More annoying was the fact that we asked 3 staff to turn it off – before we left Sapa. They all said yes (or something which we thought was an approval) but no one did nothing about it. I asked again later and the lady looked through me as if I was talking to a ghost. The linen was averagely washed, some stains on it. Plus, the blanked was coming out of the cover. The toiled was quite dirty.

The trip was wobbly, the beds are quite hard and only 180 cm in length. Not very comfortable if you’re 192 cm long. The good thing is that the nighttrain saves time so you can see more of Vietnam during the day.

Correct comfort but I find that the price difference with the first compartment of VNR is not justified…

Good trip, also because the train wasn’t full en we didn’t have to share our 4 cabin with 2 other people. Traintickets were not at the station, but a woman did arrange it. It would be easier if we got e-traintickets by mail in stead of vouchers.

We entered the train and a slightly agressive lady said private cabin? Pay! And we had to say a few times no. Do that wasn’t a good beginning of the trip. Same with drinks. They only wanted to sell it to us not to the vietnamees travellers that later came in our cabin.

Fue un poco difícil encontrar el sitio donde te daban el billete ya que no coincidía con la información recibida pero una vez obtenido todo fue muy bien. El vagón para dos como lo solicitamos. Te dan algo de bebida y comida. La cama cómoda y el Wi-Fi muy aceptable que no lo esperábamos

Perfect way to get to Sapa! The bed was comfortable (for a sleeper on a train, of course) and the ride went smoothly.

Very small hardly any space, lack of room for suitcases. The toilets were disgusting. People in the next cabin were very noisy for hours into the night. Very shaky train and lots of stops. We booked 2 lower berths and one top berth but another person said they had a lower berth. Thankfully they let us have the lower beds. The good thing was the bed was comfortable. Staff very nice.

Booking and ticket pick up couldn’t be easier, train as advertised. The journey was a bit bumpy but the beds were nice enough and we could get some sleep – so well worth it!

The train wasn’t super luxurious although I can say it was a step up from the Vietnam states trains we took last week. Bathroom was clean and useable, which is impressive for se asia!

Le stand d’information de King Express se situe à l’arrière de la gare de Hanoi.
La réservation a été conforme à ce que nous avons demandé. La cabine est propre, avec un coussin, un matelas et une petite couverture. Des snacks et de l’eau sont offerts ainsi que le thé et le café servis par une dame. Les toilettes sont plus ou moins propres, faire attention aux papiers de toilettes car il n’y en n’aura pas accès.
