Hotels in Hồ Hoàn Kiếm Area, Hanoi

It was an incredible experience. This is probably one of the best hotels I have stayed in terms of hospitality and communication. The staff is really helpful and are always trying their best to make sure you have a confortable stay. The room is clean and spacious enough. The location is great , not too far from old quarter and close enough within walking distance from other attractions. You can also always get a grab to go wherever you want and it will not take too much time. I never tried the breakfast while I stayed there so I can not comment on it but the laundry is free to use. Overall , I will definitely reccomend to anyone staying in hanoi to stay here , you will definitely have a confortable stay and worth your money.

The location is great, it’s right in the old town. The staff is super friendly and nice. They prepared a takeout breakfast for us even though we didn’t tell them that we will earlier, they did it very fast which was very nice of them. Highly recommended.

We loved our stay at the hotel. This was the first destination of our honeymoon and we were received with a lovely gesture in our room (you can see in the attached photo). Very lovely. After a few minutes we were surprised to detect a cigarette smell in the room. We spoke about it with the lobby and they immediately addressed the situation and switched our room - we were very thankful for their seamless approach which was very assuring. The service remained excellent, warm greetings every time we left or entered the hotel 🥰 Breakfast was 10/10, big variety to choose from - local or european. We also booked the next step of our vacation (Ha Long Bay cruise) with the gracious help of Mr. HA! Thank you! Would definitely return!! Special thanks to Ms. An, Ms. Kate and Mr. Jacky! You all made our stay wonderful!

Modern, simple and clean hotel. Small room, but enough for one person. The shower feels like a camping shower - wet room style little space to move. The aircon position is awkward as it blows directly onto the bed and in your face as you sleep - I advise covering the vent with a hand towel to disperse the airflow and prevent waking up with a raw throat and sore eyes. Aircon and cooling was the biggest issue - because without it the room would rise to 30deg+ and with it, you'd be feeling the dry air. The large windows are great, and I like the electric blinds that make a nearly blackout room. The lights are horrible and harsh, not relaxing at all. Fine for a short stay, but I wouldn't advise more than that - for the price its very simple and there are better alternatives.

The location is superb and really easy to catch taxis. Since its a tourist location. Good clean room. Very friendly staff. Great location. Recommend.

The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful from the moment I arrived. The room was clean and comfortable, with all the amenities I needed. The location is perfect.

Excellent value for money. The hotel is centrally located downtown, making it convenient to get anywhere. The train station is just a two-minute walk away, accessible day and night. There are several museums and a Catholic church nearby. The Western restaurant on-site offers good lunch and dinner, and they even provide massage vouchers. We were offered two complimentary cocktails upon check-in. I booked two rooms. We stayed in a king-size room, and the bed was very comfortable. The buffet breakfast is decent; though the variety isn't extensive, it's enough to keep you full. The hotel offers complimentary umbrellas, and the service is absolutely fantastic.

Location is good. 45min from airport and walking distance to old quarter and the lake. Many eateries and cafe around the area. We had a 3 bedrooms executive apartment. Good size for 6 adults. Well equipped but the apartment will require refresh and renovate. The room has a strong smell when we checked in. Front desk team provided great service and very efficient for both checking in and checking out. Has provided a fantastic first impression.

My previous stay at the Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan left me with a profound impression of the Sofitel Legend brand. This Sofitel Legend in Hanoi, compared to the one in Cairo, feels relatively new and has a more compact overall layout. Its location right by Hoan Kiem Lake is extremely convenient. The hotel is divided into an old wing and a new wing, each with its own check-in reception. The old wing is steeped in history and exudes a strong French colonial charm. However, the rooms in the old wing primarily face the street, resulting in limited views. There are only three 'Legendary Celebrity Suites,' with the Chaplin and Maugham suites being the most renowned. They aren't permanent exhibits but are available for booking. I had a chance to tour the Chaplin Suite; it wasn't particularly spacious and lacked a balcony. The service was excellent. Our initial double room didn't have a bathtub, but after informing the front desk, they quickly made adjustments. All arrangements, including the extra bed, were handled perfectly, ensuring a very comfortable stay. Guests staying in the old wing enjoy complimentary afternoon tea and cocktails. The afternoon tea was particularly exquisite. Breakfast is served in the garden restaurant, which offers a more lavish spread compared to the other two dining options. However, the attitude of some restaurant staff was rather mediocre.

Superb location right in the middle of the old quarters yet it is not noisy as it is hidden within a small lane. Best area to have a good rest after exploring the busy Hanoi city.
