★★★★ 8.6 (514 reviews)

"Room and bathroom were clean. Beds were comfortable to sleep in. Staff was friendly and helpful. Location - easy access to the shops and attractions - you can walk to the lake or the market. The hotel is located just off the main street, so you’ll have to carry your own bag to the hotel (short walk). The upside, you enjoy peace and quiet - you don’t hear the noise from the main street - car/motorbike honks, engine revving etc. Enjoyed our stay here 👍🏼"

Valora Residence West Lake - 31 Xuan Dieu ★★★
"The room is quite close to West Lake, within walking distance, and there are many restaurants nearby. Transportation is very convenient. There's a large iron gate at the entrance to the building, and you can come and go freely with a password. The only downside is the blaring announcements every morning because it's right by the road, and there's no soundproofing at all."

Tru by Hilton Hanoi Station ★★★★
"The service was excellent, very polite and accommodating. Our flight arrived early, and they promptly arranged for us to check in. The hotel's proximity to the train station was a huge plus, as we were heading to Sapa after just one night's stay. Choosing this hotel was definitely a smart decision."

Anatole Hotel Hanoi ★★★★★
"I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Hanoi. The location is fantastic, making it super convenient to get around, and I was really impressed with how clean and tidy the rooms were! The service and staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, which made my trip so enjoyable. I also loved that the breakfast offered pho and other delicious Vietnamese dishes. The food was truly excellent. The Wi-Fi worked perfectly, and the water was so clean that I didn't even need a shower filter. If I ever get the chance to visit Hanoi again, I would definitely choose this hotel ^-^"
