This property was exceptional and very good value for the money. Exceptional in the fact that it had all the pleasantries of the large expensive hotel chains at a much more affordable price point. I would definitely return to this hotel and highly recommend it to anyone who is visiting Hanoi, Vietnam. Wonderful staff providing an exceptional level of service. Gunther & Diana

Lovely hotel, really nice decor and great location for the old town. A stones throw from the lake and most attractions. The staff are the stars of the show here - nothing they wouldn’t do for you. We loved staying here, thank you for looking after us!
