I stayed at this hotel on a bicycle tour. The hotel is largely patronized by tour groups; if you are traveling independently you could readily find more charming and contemporary accommodations. The location of the hotel lends itself well to street-side access for tour buses, which is not so readily available on quieter streets. Staff pleasant and competent. Convenient location... More

We found this hotel to be clean, staff friendly and obliging, and close to good restaurants and markets. It was a bit noisy in one of the rooms we had as it was facing right onto the main street and locals don't go to bed early!! The others in our group didn't have a problem with the noise as they...

This 10 story 3 star tourist hotel is perfectly located for wandering around the main part of Hanoi through the picturesque small streets and is only a few blocks from the main market. The breakfast buffet, located off the main lobby was very good and the staff were helpful. The cost for extending one’s stay beyond the noon checkout until... More

Galaxy hotel sits at a roundabout with each street that leads off giving you a different slice of Hanoi. The Cho Dong Xuan market is within walking distance. It doubles up as a night market. The Hoan Kiem lake, around which are situated the best cafés and restaurants, is a 10/15 min walk from the hotel. The room size was... More

This hotel is very clean and reasonably priced.It is located in a good postion about 10 min walk to the lake.The staff are friendly and there is a basic restaurant attached to the hotel which serves okay food if your too lazy/tired to go out.One small problem is that it only has one lift so you may have to wait...

This was the oldest of the hotels we stayed at on our 3 week tour. We stayed here a number of nights between trips to other sections of northern Vietnam. Even though the rooms were average, it is in a good location for the Old Quarter, staff are generally friendly and being on a busy corner, it is a great... More

We stayed here for 4 nights at the beginning of our tour. Our room was not really like the photos - it was quite dark as the bathroom and kitchen area were on the outside wall. But I guess that meant that it was not so noisy! This hotel is fine - nothing special, but nothing really to complain about.... More

Stayed at this hotel as part of a tour group. Hotel rooms were fine and comfortable. It is about a 10-15 minute walk to the lake though so I wouldn't choose this hotel again. Breakfast was ok not a lot of choice but sufficient. The Pho was alright though. Staff were a bit grumpy some days. Small bar area with... More

We stayed at the Galaxy Hotel for 4 nights upon our initial arrival in Vietnam. The location was terrific because it is right in the Old Quarter, so there are many interesting walks through the city easily available. The hotel itself was really good and provided nothing that we can complain about! Our room was good except the bathroom light... More
