MAY DE VILLE Lakeside Hotel

I stayed at May de Ville Lakeside Hotel in Hanoi and was really impressed overall. The room isn't very large, but it’s clean, well-maintained, and comfortable for a short stay. Noise insulation is average—some sound from the hallway can be heard, so if you're sensitive to noise, consider asking for a quieter room. What truly stands out is the location. Right outside the hotel is the old quarter, where you can easily explore local shops, street food stalls, and authentic Vietnamese culture. Just steps away is the peaceful lake, offering beautiful views, especially at sunset. It’s perfect for travelers who want to be immersed in the city’s vibe without having to travel far. With great value for money and a central spot, I’d definitely recommend this hotel and would stay here again.

MAY DE VILLE Corner Hotel

Staying at May de Ville Corner Hotel in Hanoi was an absolute delight. The location is perfect—just a short walk from the city center and close to public transit, making it easy to explore everything Hanoi has to offer. The staff went above and beyond with their friendly and attentive service—always smiling, helpful, and genuinely welcoming. Daily room cleaning kept everything fresh and tidy, which I really appreciated. Breakfast was a highlight: a well-rounded buffet with both local Vietnamese dishes and Western options, all delicious and freshly prepared. The rooftop view was simply breathtaking—the panoramic sight of the city skyline, especially at sunset, made it worth every moment. The only minor downside was some slight sound transfer between rooms, but honestly, it didn’t take away from the overall experience. This hotel offers excellent value, great comfort, and a memorable stay. I’d definitely come back.

Sheraton Hanoi Hotel

Staying at Sheraton Hanoi Hotel was one of the quietest experiences I've had in any hotel—seriously, it felt like a peaceful oasis amid the bustling city. I'm not sure if it's because most locals ride electric scooters (which are quieter than regular motorcycles), but the ambient noise level outside was surprisingly low, making for a restful night's sleep. The location is excellent—right in the heart of Hanoi, just a short walk to major attractions and public transit. Breakfast was a highlight: diverse, fresh, and well-prepared with both local and international options. Comfortable rooms, great service, and an overall experience that exceeds expectations. If you're visiting Hanoi and want a calm, convenient, and high-quality stay, this hotel is absolutely worth considering.

Pan Pacific Hanoi

Staying at Pan Pacific Hanoi was a real highlight—being right on the edge of West Lake makes for incredible views, especially from rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows that open up to stunning lake vistas. The photos are absolutely picture-perfect from those angles. That said, not all rooms offer the same view; some have smaller windows, which limits the scenic appeal and makes photography trickier. While the room interiors do feel a bit dated, the location more than makes up for it. Easy access to downtown by metro, peaceful surroundings, and that unbeatable lakeside setting really elevate the experience. It’s a great choice if you value ambiance and convenience over ultra-modern design.

The InterContinental Hanoi Westlake is an absolute gem. Even though it’s not a brand-new property, the cleanliness and attention to detail are impressive—every corner feels well-maintained and luxurious. The location is perfect: just a 30-minute drive from major attractions, and with Grab or public transit, getting around is hassle-free. Yes, surge pricing can happen during peak hours, but the views of West Lake alone make it worth every minute. There are plenty of charming cafés, the famous Marou chocolate shop, and small boutiques within walking distance—ideal for a relaxed stroll after a long day. What really stands out? The service. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Having access to the lounge all day long means you can relax, read, grab a drink, or even take a nap without ever needing to leave the hotel. It’s like having your own quiet retreat in the heart of Hanoi. For comfort, convenience, and that special touch of luxury, this hotel delivers on every level. A must-stay if you’re visiting Hanoi.

Grand Mercure Hanoi

Staying at Grand Mercure Hanoi was an absolute delight—cleanliness exceeded all expectations. The entire property and my room were spotless, modern, and well-maintained, with a subtle fresh scent throughout that made the space feel inviting. Even though the room is compact, it’s thoughtfully designed with everything you need—perfect for a one-night stay before heading to Halong Bay. I didn’t get a chance to use many of the hotel amenities, but what I experienced was already impressive. While it's a bit removed from the city center, the quiet location actually works in its favor—no noise disturbances at all. What truly stood out was the surprise wedding anniversary gift: a sweet treat and fresh flowers delivered to my room. For such a reasonable rate, this level of personal touch was incredibly touching.

Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi

Staying at the Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi was an absolute highlight of my trip to Hanoi. The hotel itself is a stunning example of French colonial architecture, with elegant details and timeless charm that immediately set the tone for a memorable experience. Located just a 15-minute walk from Hoan Kiem Lake and the famous 36 Streets, it’s perfect for exploring the heart of the city on foot. The entrance has a dedicated drop-off zone, making it super convenient if you’re arriving by Grab or other rideshare services. The staff went above and beyond—friendly, attentive, and always ready to recommend local restaurants or help plan activities. My room was slightly smaller than your typical international five-star, but incredibly comfortable and beautifully decorated in classic French style. It faced the lush garden courtyard, so absolutely quiet—no traffic noise at all, which made for excellent sleep quality. The breakfast buffet was outstanding: fresh, diverse, and thoughtfully presented. I especially loved the egg coffee served in a delicate porcelain cup—it added such a special touch to the morning ritual. This hotel truly offers a unique blend of history, luxury, and genuine hospitality. If I ever return to Hanoi, this will be my first choice without hesitation.

Peridot Grand Luxury Boutique Hotel

Located just a 10-minute walk from Hoan Kiem Lake in the heart of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, this hotel may look unassuming from the outside, but once you step inside, you’re greeted with elegant and thoughtful design that truly stands out. Despite being in a bustling area, the rooms are surprisingly quiet—perfect for a restful stay. The front door opens right into a popular local Vietnamese eatery, making dining on-site super convenient. Breakfast is a highlight: generous, varied, and delicious. The staff are warm, attentive, and always ready to help. We stayed for two nights on December 14th and 15th—the rooftop pool was too chilly to swim in, which is understandable this time of year. The gym is located in a closed-off, windowless space with noticeable rubber odor, so we didn’t use it. However, if you don’t rely heavily on fitness or pool access, this place is an excellent choice. With its central location, charming atmosphere, and strong value for money, I’d definitely recommend it to friends. It’s one of those hidden gems that delivers far more than expected.

Oakwood Residence Hanoi

I've stayed at countless hotels over the years, but this one truly exceeded my expectations. The breakfast was excellent—fresh, varied, and delicious. The rooms are incredibly well-equipped with a small kitchen complete with utensils and dishes, which made cooking our own meals a breeze. The gym is modern and spacious, and the pool area is peaceful and inviting—perfect for unwinding. We had a wonderfully relaxing weekend here. Plus, the location is fantastic: just steps away from amazing restaurants and easy access to everything in the city. It’s rare to find such a great balance of comfort, convenience, and value—this place is a standout.

Somerset Grand Hanoi

The hotel exceeded my expectations in every way—great location, convenient access to the city center via metro, and a vibrant atmosphere with many Korean guests. I was initially happy with my booking, but just before check-in, I noticed the price had dropped by 20%. I considered canceling and rebooking for a better rate, but unfortunately, the date I wanted (April 4th) was fully booked. When I reached out to the hotel to request shortening my original stay, they refused any flexibility. To avoid further hassle, I ended up paying an extra $1500 CNY to keep the reservation. It’s frustrating, especially since I’ve stayed at other Somerset properties without issues. This experience felt off—like being misled rather than treated fairly. While the room and service were solid, the lack of transparency and support during a pricing change left a sour taste. Would have loved more flexibility from the team.

It’s not just a hotel—it’s a home away from home in Hanoi.
