The Hotel is in a nice old building, in the centre of Hanoi Old Town but out of the confusion and the street noise. Better to avoid first floors rooms. My room was wide with a good illumination and nice terrace with view on the roofs, at fifth floor. The staff is extremely helpful and English-Speaking. The bathroom was basic, and frankly speaking the room was not clean. The lack of cleanliness was the only negative point.

There was nothing to really dislike about this hotel. The staff were friendly and welcoming as well as speaking good English. The rooms were incredibly spacious and comfortable as well as being clean. Water was hot, AC worked well and the shower was okay. Don't flush anything down the toilet though, as it will block. There was a balcony overlooking the street below and after about 10pm the noise died down and a good night's sleep could be had. They also provided some drinks, including beer to put in the fridge. The wifi was pedestrian speed but it didn't trouble us too much. The location is very good with tonnes of good eating options nearby and still within easy walking distance of the old quarter, the lake and sights west of the centre. I think, compared to other hotels, you could probably get. The same for a little less cash. Having said that, we didn't feel cheated at $26 per night.

Leur sérieux: J'ai eu une annulation d'avion, qui m'a fait perdre la première nuit d’hôtel. Je les ai prévenu très rapidement, et ils ont fait en sorte que je ne paie pas cette nuit perdue. De plus, suite à la barrière de la langue, il y a eu une double réservation des chambres avec une erreur de prix. On s'en est aperçu au moment de l'annulation du vol. Et dans la foulée, ils ont arrangé la situation et on n'a pas eu de surcoût à payer. ==> Hotel vraiment sérieux. Je reprendrais cet hôtel si je reviens à Hanoï.
