I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and quite spacious, but the loud banging noise from scaffolding was a big downside. The service was top-notch, with very kind and helpful staff. The location was great, near the lake and the water puppets theatre, but the noise from the adjacent bar could be bothersome. The dining was good overall, but nothing extraordinary. The facilities were satisfactory, although lacking some luxury touches.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The rooms were quiet, offering fantastic views, especially for family groups. They were comfortable with good air conditioning, very cozy bed, clean room and toilet, quality bed linens, and a selection of firm and soft pillows. The service was top-notch, with friendly staff who even checked in on my partner and offered to walk with us to the nearby pharmacy. The location couldn't have been better, close to the lake, shops, and sights, making it a lovely choice in the heart of Hanoi Old Quarter. The dining experience was good but could use more variety in Western dishes. Overall, a highly recommended clean and comfortable hotel with great value for money.
