Situated in the Old Quarter. Close to everything. such as eating, shopping, sightseeing, bars. Hotel staff is nice and polite. Breakfast is the best, with Vietnamese noodles. Breakfast dishes are different everyday, showing the thoughtfulness from hotel management. One reminder for all guests - balcony of Hanoi Hotel is a small bay outside a full window, a different concept of usual balcony. Still, the full window is good.
