We stayed 7 nights here, and it is a little bit of paradise away fro the madness of Hanoi centre. We had a superb welcome and were upgraded to a better room free of charge. the room was spacious and had a balcony overlooking West Lake. The restaurant (The Vietnamese one) was excellent, we ate there twice (I have never... More

We stayed one night just to experience staying above Westlake and it was pretty decent. We arrived but had to wait for quite a long while at the lobby before we were served and checked in. As we stayed at the furthest end of the lakeview rooms, we got transported to our room by the little cabby which was quite... More

Our first impressions of the Intercontinental were disappointing. The public areas of the hotel were of a high standard but the access to the rooms and the rooms themselves were not that of a 5* hotel. The sheets in our room were ripped and the shower didn’t work properly and although the sheets were replaced the shower never worked correctly.... More

The hotel reception, dining rooms and bars were of the usual Intercontinental standard but the rooms we had were situated over the water and smelt musty and felt damp. The electric plugs did not work as they were worn out. The check in and out process took ages without any explanation as to why it was taking so long. The... More

I am an idiot for not consulting with my mother prior to booking our stay at the intercontinental. Mom was right when she said there'll be a ton of mosquitoes given we're near the water. Loved their Pho ga, Pho Tai and Chao. SO GOOD, I literally ate this everyday for breakfast during my 4 night stay here. It's far... More

We stayed in this hotel for 6 days. While the service at the beginning was okay, our stay turned sour on the day we checked-out (1st of May 2013 at 12pm). The bellboy in hotel (white-collared shirt) was lazy, he dragged our luggages down the stairs which caused one of the wheel to come off. We went to the front... More

Dear Haxiner, Thank you for the feedback from your recent. It was disappointing to hear at the time of checkout that my team did show the empathy and understanding of the situation. Your comments are taken on board and have been fed back to the colleagues involved so they can both be coached on what our expectations are. In my... More

The Interconti as its known locally is a bit of fresh air in this tropical city. Situated on the West Lake the cooling breezes by the pool and into the rooms are very welcome. It's a short taxi drive south to the old quarter but you can also walk or ride around the lake going north for recreation and sights.... More

Located about 20 mins by taxi to downtown, the intercon is a good hotel for a little retreat from downtown Hanoi. Went in early april, but the weather seems too cold (!) to swim in the pool. My room is on the reception facing some apartment blocks, should have upgraded to the one facing the lake instead. Sunset bar is... More
