Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so you'll need to make other arrangements for animal companions.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in runs from 14:00 to 23:59, so late-night arrivals (after midnight) are not accommodated directly at the front desk.
  • Some reviews note average value scores — While guests praise the breakfast and location, the Value rating (8.5) is slightly lower than Rooms and Staff, suggesting some felt the price–experience balance could be better.
  • Limited on-site parking — Parking is available but may be limited given the hotel's central Old Quarter location; valet parking is offered as an option.

“Spent New Year at this hotel and the location was unbeatable – just a few blocks from St. Joseph's Cathedral and a short walk from Hoan Kiem Lake. Staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. They offered a complimentary airport pick-up which was effortless. Rooms were cute and clean, with free water and snacks. The complimentary breakfast in the restaurant downstairs was delicious – the a la carte menu meant I could order as much as I wanted.”
