Great value, clean spacious room, helpful staff. Well located near St. Joseph’s Cathedral, which means loud bells early in the morning! Not an issue for us, but it wouldn’t suit someone with difficulty climbing stairs, as there was no lift. ##### Vincent Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### James Oct 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great value and location! Perfect location. Very fast wifi. Great AC. Its a little rustic but it feels like vietnam and not just another hotel. I would stay here again and would recommend it to true travelers. If your too picky then stay home. ##### James Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ernesto May 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful Hotel in the Old Quarter Hanoi Thanh and the hotel staff have been very warm and accommodating throughout my entire stay in Hanoi. The hotel is very convenient and accessible to most areas in the old and french quarters. St. Joseph cathedral is just one corner away from the hotel and it is also very close to Hoan Kiem lake. I would highly recommend this hotel. Best value for your money. ##### Ernesto Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Kathleen Jun 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Some staff did not speak English, but super helpful!

There was nobody at the reception, we had to knock the door of the staff who lives there. ##### Juan Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### iloveall Jan 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Good location. Eateries just steps from the hotel entrance. Room was spacious with fresh air as window is openable . Beds & pillows are comfy.. Aircon & Water heater works well. Staff is friendly & helpful. The only obvious downside for this old property is the need to climb a spiral bridge to reach our room on the 5th level. Recommended when visiting Hanoi again. ##### iloveall Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Ruth Aug 3, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Great stay! Excellent area for walking to everything. Hotel is dated and needs refurbishing but still the rooms were clean. There was mold in the bathroom. Staff were helpful but didn’t speak English however they did their best by translating using their phone. It’s quite lively around the hotel and during the week early morning an announcement and music is played loud via speakers outside the hotel in Vietnamese. Overall it was a good place to stay and would recommend it as a means to sleep but not for relaxation. ##### Ruth Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Myra Feb 26, 2026 Everything is nice the staff, rooms ##### Myra Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Jasmine Oct 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness Nice clean room.and big bed ##### Jasmine Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samantha Apr 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great trip Hotel is very well situated among the sites and a large amount of food options.

When I was checking out, the lady receptionist is charging me for the breakfast. I told her and showed her my booking. She said it was a mistake and to call hotels.com. I told her I am going to report her and will make a review. I gave her my credit card but since I told her I will report her she shoves away my card and so I left. She is scamming me. ##### Jose Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### shervin Dec 30, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Dirty, Mouldy and Noisy! Reception not manned! Had to wait nearly 10 minutes for service. Bed sheets had not been changed; had body fluid stains, pillow had blood stain. Shower was broken. Mould on walls in room, bathroom and hallway. The very loud speaker from government announcements right on our balcony. Very noisy! Staff did not learn the word "sorry", just a blank look when we complained. ##### shervin Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Peter Mar 12, 2024 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Suitable for the hard-of-hearing Noise, noise, noise noise ..... No chance of sleep; no soundproofing; street noise outside, cockerels start crowing 4:00am followed by barking dogs at 4:30, motor bikes at 5:30, church bells at 6.00, 129 decibel loudspeaker at 7:30, etc etc. Luke-warm bathroom water, bathroom 90cms wide, paint peeling off internal walls, no lift - only a steep spiral staircase - and no fire escape. Pity, because it's just on the edge of the picturesque and iconic Old Quarter. ##### Peter Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Yoshihiro Aug 11, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities 立地は最高です。ただし、タクシーが入って来られません。はじめはわかりづらいかもしれません。周辺に有名店があります。 ##### Yoshihiro Stayed 4 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Takuya Nov 26, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Disliked: Property conditions & facilities 部屋は広くて綺麗でした。でもシャワートイレ洗面所が全てまとまっていました。あとお湯が出なかった。 ##### Takuya Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Eva Nov 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Personalet var meget sødt, ligger centralt, men også i et meget støjende område. ##### Eva Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2024 ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Riverside Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Riverside-Boutique-Hotel.h20385065.Hotel-Information) > - [Central Westlake Residence 2 - By Pegasy Group](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-GH-Apartment-Westlake-By-Pegasy-Group.h95838176.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Bel Ami Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Hotel-Bel-Ami-Hanoi.h19828184.Hotel-Information) > - [Masteri Lehomes](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Masteri-Lehomes.h109646790.Hotel-Information) > - [Grandiose Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Grandiose-Hotel-Spa.h21140290.Hotel-Information) > - [Grand K Hotel Suites Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Grand-K-Hotel-Suites-Hanoi.h90097245.Hotel-Information) > - [Lucky Budda Inn Villa](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Long-Bien-Bridge-Villa.h37918732.Hotel-Information) > - [OYO 317 Kim Cuong Hotel 2](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-OYO-317-Kim-Cuong-Hotel-2.h39770468.Hotel-Information) > - [Somerset Grand Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Somerset-Grand-Hanoi.h1559027.Hotel-Information) > - [King's Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Kings-Hotel.h36937140.Hotel-Information) > - [Jacayl Hotel - Cau Giay](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Jacayl-Hotel.h91901420.Hotel-Information) > - [Epic Tower Swiss-Belresidences Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Epic-Tower-Swiss-Belresidences.h104326128.Hotel-Information) > - [Nesta - The Grand Hao Nam](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Nesta-Serviced-Apartment.h94871056.Hotel-Information) > - [Muong Thanh Hanoi Centre Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Muong-Thanh-Hanoi-Centre-Hotel.h10390479.Hotel-Information) > - [Lotus Inn Serviced Apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Lotus-Inn-Serviced-Apartment.h36043452.Hotel-Information) > - [Luxeden Signature Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Luxeden-Hotel.h8672279.Hotel-Information) > - [Blue Home Serviced Apartment Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Blue-Home-Serviced-Apartment-Hanoi.h24416276.Hotel-Information) > - [22Land Cloud Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-22Land-Cloud-Hotel.h113326357.Hotel-Information) > - [Hanah's Tiny Hanoi Homestay](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Hanahs-Tiny-Hanoi-Homestay.h22257669.Hotel-Information) > - [Blubiz Hotel 5](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Blubiz-Hotel-5.h100928742.Hotel-Information) > - [Skylark Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Skylark-Boutique-Hotel.h102529624.Hotel-Information) > - [Sen Luxury Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Sen-Luxury-Hotel.h8109589.Hotel-Information) > - [T Boutique Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-T-Boutique-Hotel.h106555637.Hotel-Information) > - [Noi Bai Airport Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Noi-Bai-Airport-Hotel.h11768793.Hotel-Information) > - [NVT Housing - Vinhomes Times City Apartment Hanoi](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-NVT-Housing-Vinhomes-Times-City.h106214055.Hotel-Information) > - [Luxe Paradise Suites Xuan Dieu](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Luxe-Paradise-Suites-Xuan-Dieu.h113211472.Hotel-Information) > - [Sen Grand Hotel & Spa managed by Sen Group](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Sen-Grand-Hotel-Spa-Managed-By-Sen-Group.h32481432.Hotel-Information) > - [Luxury Apartment Vinhomes Skylake](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Luxury-Apartment-Vinhomes-Skylake.h38893405.Hotel-Information) > - [Hanoi Riverview Boutique Hotel & Apartment](https://www.expedia.ca/Hanoi-Hotels-Hanoi-Riverview-Boutique.h110617088.Hotel-Information)
