“Good base”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 July 2007

The place was clean and the staff was helpful. The location was great, didn't try the included breakfast, but what I saw being served looked good. The computers for the free internet were always in use, but probably could have asked the staff to cut their time short if I really needed it.
The only real downside was the mini bar cost, cokes were $5 USD a piece, no menu letting you know that bit of info either. Many small markets nearby to get water, beer and snacks.
Could easily walk around in old town, hotel is near the center. Be sure and ask for the mini bus from the airport, it is free, the airport is a long way from the hotel.
It is 4 floors and no elevator, ask, in advance, if you need a lower floor room. Might not do any good as the reservations were ranked behind the walk-ins and those extending their stays.

“A great place to stay!”

We had an amazing time at this hotel. The hotel has a very helpful staff willing to help you with anything during your time in Hanoi. The rooms are very clean, with TV and air conditioning for very good prices. The rate of the room also includes a very good breakfast every morning. I highly recommend this hotel, to anyone visiting Hanoi.

Stayed May 2007

“A horrible scam”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 April 2007

people found this review helpful

My two friends and I were looking for a place, and we were told to go here. One of the women was hounding us, asking nastily where we were from, and how long we would stay. I said honestly that I didn't know, but that we'd have to discuss it, since we had different travel plans. We were forced to wait around for almost an hour, while they got nastier and nastier. They'd promised a rate of $9 for the entire room, but then it was $12 when we arrived finally saw the room per person, which was a joke, and then they came down to $15, and then down to $12 total, but then they said we couldn't eat breakfast or use the internet. I said I would discuss that with the manager (who I'd met at the other branch of this hotel). She told me that if I wanted to speak to the manager she wouldn't let me stay in the hotel, and that I'd have to sleep on the street. I think it's because of the cheap prices that they originally try to bring people in with, since there rooms are worth more, but then they are SO incredibly rude and vicious to you to get more money out of you. It's fair to want more money for the room, but not after they've set a price. I told them that I would write a report on the internet, and was writing down the name of the hotel and one of the boys ripped the paper from my hands and tore it to shreds. My friends were afraid of what would have happened if we had stayed there... Just avoid this place...
