Also Lucy who works there and is great friendly smiling face to welcome you! Michael I will be back in September I hope to with you again. Thanks for great stay Michael & Nga

This hotel is located in an alley, just a short walk from the main road to get in. The equipment is 3-star standard, but the special thing is that the Receptionist is super enthusiastic 🥰. If I have a chance to come back, I still want to stay here.

Great little hotel on a small street in old quarter Hanoi. We had great service and breakfast at this family run inn. They helped us arrange transport around town and got us oriented to the swarming streets. We really enjoyed the vibrant area and walked everywhere, including a food tasting tour, around the Lake and a Hanoi city tour that included Ho Chi Min monument and the water puppet performance. Aside from touristy things, we found ourselves situated here perfectly to jump out on our own and experience the vibrant street life around us. Nice knowledgeable and very welcoming. We recommend the Elpis at no. 5 wholeheartedly!

Very comfy and nice hotel to stay. They have chocolate bar counter at certain time where you can enjoy their own brand chocolate which is so yummy. Will be back again for business or leisure. Thumbs up

I really enjoy the stay here. The hotel is very modern, very clean. Plesantly surprjse actually. They dont offer breakfast. They are just opposite cafe giang (the famous egg coffee cafe), few mins to the lake and the temple. Quite near to the post office to send post cards back home, near bahn mi 25, near the night market as well and dong xuan market. What is not near is the train street, which is the other side. Overall super convenient, near the bus stop as well if you are taking public transport from the airport

I stayed two nights there in two different rooms. One overlooking the street and one with windows but with no views. Both were good and quiet. The bed was super comfy, very nice bed linen, great bathroom with powerful shower. Good breakfast, very friendly staff.

Harry and Tom at the front desk were super helpful and we had a fantastic time in the old quarter. The hotel is located in a back lane, we enjoyed the feel of the city hustle. We are a family of 4 with two young kids. There’s a few worthwhile spots nearby - Roses Travel Agency, the massage place staffed by blind people, some good bahn mi (sic) and bun chau (sic, I’m not sure of the spelling for these). Also, definitely recommended bringing AUD, EUR, or USD notes and exchanging here. The exchange rates in some of the local hotels/travel agencies/etc are close to commercial currency exchange rates, far superior to exchange rates from western banks.

The staff are very nice, the room is clean and comfotable. I have great time in this hotel. Very convenient location in old quarter....budget friendly...receptionist ms.lieu and owner mr. Tung were allways there n very helpful....maids also very very accomodative....highly recommend this property....

We moved to this hotel after a less than great night at a nearby hotel. The location is ideal if you want to be near the lake or have business with an embassy. The lake is a 30 second walk, the embassies 10 minutes or so. There is a large grocery story (VinMart) a short walk away. The room has a large sitting area, work desk, full kitchen with a household-size refrigerator/freezer, and the bed is very comfortable as are the pillows. The bed area can be sectioned off by closing a floor-to-ceiling curtain between it and the lounge area -- convenient when your travel companion wants to get up early to work (and turn on all the lights). The bathroom includes a full-size tub and a Japanese toilet (i.e., heated seat and built in bidet with multiple options). We were there in the midst of the pandemic so occupancy was low. Rather than a breakfast buffet they provided us with a menu that included a very large selection of items ranging from Western standards to Vietnamese standards. You won't go hungry from lack of options. Evenings in the rooftop restaurant includes groups of local youth taking selfies of themselves in the 'fancy' surroundings. Worth an evening drink for the beautiful lake view as well as the people watching. Staff were great, food was very good and prices in the mini bar were entirely reasonable. Coffee, tea, drinking water and a FULL breakfast are included. If this location fits your needs when visiting Hanoi, I cannot recommend it more highly.

A well-regulated hotel, in the suburbs of Hanoi, the hotel is OK, very quiet, the door can not be hit, grab is not a play. It is not cheap in the local area, the grade is referenced to the domestic Hanting 2.0, the room is large. Breakfast is OK.
