InterContinental Hanoi Landmark72

The InterContinental Hanoi Landmark72 truly delivers on the luxury experience I expected from a five-star hotel. From the thoughtful ambient scent to the elegant interior design, every detail contributes to a refined and welcoming atmosphere. While there are some construction sites nearby—something inevitable in a city as rapidly developing as Hanoi—the vibrant energy of the area adds character. I was pleasantly surprised to find myself in a Korean-friendly zone with plenty of authentic shops and fellow travelers from South Korea, making it feel like a mini Seoul getaway. The hotel regularly hosts themed events, and during my stay, there was a fun fried chicken and beer night along with a special Korean strawberry tart dessert. Even more exciting? I discovered they had a countdown party that evening—staff were incredibly energetic and engaging, turning it into a memorable highlight. Every employee I interacted with was warm, professional, and genuinely attentive. This level of hospitality is rare and truly worth noting. Definitely coming back.

Sheraton Hanoi West

I stayed at Sheraton Hanoi West during a layover in Hanoi, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. The hotel’s lounge offering a three-hour cocktail hour from 6 to 9 PM was a real highlight—huge variety of food, high quality, and easily one of the best I’ve experienced anywhere. Drinks were self-serve, which made it super relaxed and enjoyable. Breakfast was equally impressive with a wide range of delicious options, though I arrived early and couldn’t try everything—really wish I’d had more time. The first cup of cappuccino was excellent—so rich and smooth I had to order a second. Unfortunately, the second serving wasn’t quite the same, which was a bit disappointing. Overall, this hotel stands out for its comfort, service, and attention to detail. I’d definitely come back without hesitation.
