Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Alley location can be hard to find — The hotel sits down a narrow lane rather than on a main street, which guests note but generally see as part of its charm.
  • No pets allowed — The hotel does not accept pets, so travellers with animals will need to look elsewhere.
  • Limited parking — Parking is available but appears to be off-site rather than on-premises, which may be less convenient for drivers.
  • Check-in only until 23:30 — If you arrive very late, you may miss the check-in window (14:00-23:30) and need to make alternative arrangements.
  • Small-scale property — With just 30 rooms, the hotel is intimate but may lack the wide range of facilities of larger properties.

“The beds were so comfy, and we loved exploring Hanoi with friends. The show at the Vietnamese National Tuong Theatre was mind-blowing – a traditional performance that kept us on edge. The Vietnam Women's Museum was also fascinating, teaching us so much about the country's history.”

“We loved this hotel tucked down an alley near the church. The location was ideal – close to St Joseph's Cathedral, with stores and restaurants all around. Facilities were well kept, cleanliness was spot on, and the staff were friendly and genuinely helpful. They organised transport for us with great attention to detail. Breakfast was excellent.”

“Tom, a staff member, was brilliant – he set up our room and an amazing tour package to Ha Giang, Sapa, and Ha Long. The room was a great deal, the breakfast delicious, and the staff spoke good English. Location was super handy with cafes and shops nearby. Beds comfy, strong air conditioning, and we felt safe with the in-room safe. Check-in was fast, and they arranged airport pickup. The room and bathroom were spacious and clean. Extras included free Wi-Fi, off-site parking, luggage storage, 24-hour reception, in-room breakfast, and cots.”

9.2Verified guest

“This hotel really is value for money – reasonable prices and impressive attention to detail. I loved the location down a charming alley near the church in the city centre – a hidden gem. The staff were incredibly friendly, the room amenities on the 3rd floor more than enough, and breakfast had good variety.”

9.2Verified guest

“We stayed down an alley near the church, and the hotel was right next to it – handy. Stores and restaurants nearby were convenient. The room was clean, beds comfortable, and staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast had a small variety but was enough. The hotel-recommended tour guides were amazing and enthusiastic.”
