Old Quarter View Hanoi Hostel, hotel in Hanoi

Attractively set in the center of Hanoi, Old Quarter View Hanoi Hostel has air-conditioned rooms, a shared lounge, free WiFi and a restaurant. This 3-star hostel offers an ATM and a concierge service....

I absolutely loved the amount of tours, cooking classes and happy hour networking activities that the facility offers. Ocean and Nancy were phenomenal front desk hosts and were always ready and available to help out with any and all questions and concerns. The overnight staff at the bar and at the front desk were AWESOME to and were available to help with concerns or technology needs in the main lobby. Billy was an excellent tour guide and was well-informed on the city streets and navigation of Hanoi. The chef of the facility during the cooking class was superb and really helpful in assisting myself and others with making traditional Vietnamese dishes. He was even able to customize certain dishes to be vegan/vegetarian so I could still eat during the class.

Khai Homestay, hotel in Hanoi

Attractively located in Hanoi, Khai Homestay has air-conditioned rooms, a shared lounge and free WiFi. The property is around a 16-minute walk from St.

It is very well located - central but in a small alleyway that is quiet. The place is also extremely clean with a nice attention to detail. Staff is very friendly. I was even offered to leave my stuff during the day in the homestay and then take a shower at night before my train. None of it for extra. I definitely recommend it!

Looking for a hostel?
Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    One of the best hostels I've stayed at in Asia! The hostel is really beautiful with great facilities e.g. a hair dryer and a pool to use. The staff are really friendly, they let me check-out late, they stored my luggage for me whilst I did the loop, and they let me change the dates of my booking last minute. The beds are comfortable with a bedside light and storage locker as well as lockers big enough for my 55L bag. Great location. Really enjoyed the free walking tour which helped me meet other travellers.
