Really enjoyed our stay here, we returned twice after other side trips. Cheap, basic, clean, with very helpful staff, and wonderful location right in the heart of the old quarter. We booked our Halong Bay trip through the hotel and had a great time.

The hotel is okay I stayed in better which cost less throughout my trip in Vietnam and Cambodia. My main complaint is the tours they offer which are overpriced, are not good value and the way they sell the tours. The manager is only interested in getting as much money out of people, who have chosen to stay at his... More

We rolled into Hanoi late in the evening after a long flight. I handed the cab driver the hotel info and hoped for the best. He drove us right into the heart of old Hanoi, which was just teaming with activity. Not even sure how got through the crowds but he got to a spot in the mayhem and said... More

My first visit to Vietnam, was definitely made better by the nice People of Gecko Hotel. Hanoi is a very hectic city. Having a comfortable place to stay, that can help you arrange other details of your trip, like train/ plane tickets & local tours is a plus. I also loved the attitude of the staff, who always had a... More

This was a truly wonderful hotel to have found and landed on in Hanoi! It's tucked away off of the busy and loud streets on a tiny alley. The rooms are clean and spacious enough. The beds and sheets are comfortable, and they offer a very nice made to order breakfast with fabulous coffee. The customer service couldn't be better.... More

I arrived at this hotel after taking the overnight train fro Sapa. I was very tired and needed to freshen up. What a relief it was to be able to get a room very early in the morning. The rooms are fantastic. I mostly stayed in inexpensive hostels and guesthouses on my trip through southeast Asia. My night at the... More

The hotel is located right smack in the old quarter Hanoi, but at a less busy trung yen gangway off the busy dinh liet street. The service is good, with friendly staffs who speak good English. The room comes with breakfast. The room is quite spacious and very clean, simple amenities are provided. It's not luxurious but it sure is... More

My friend and I stayed here one night, then left Hanoi, and stayed here again when we returned. It felt like returning home when we arrived back at the hotel. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We especially enjoyed being off the main busy and noisy street. We were given a map of the Old Quarter that was most... More
