Fantastic staff and good breakfast. The location is perfect. Is it spotless? No. But if you want a \"white glove\" level of clean, go somewhere else and pay 5x the price. For a solid, well-located stay that won't break the bank, this is it.

This hotel is old and not well maintained. It was probably nice 20 years ago but it certainly didn’t rate the 4 star rating Expedia gave it. The room was clean, but everything was worn. Room temp was tricky and the hot water lasted 4 minutes before it turned cold. The elevator didn’t go all the way to the top and I needed to carry my bags up steep winding stairs to get to my room. The location was the only benefit and it was walking distance to many attractions in the city as well as food options in the Old Quarter. Front desk staff, especially Mrs. Jessica, were quite helpful and accommodating. For the price I paid, I feel like it should have been a better place. I won’t stay there again.

Gold Sun Villa sent us last minute to cancel our stay & changed our stay to other hotel that I rated it 2 to 2 1/2 star, not 4 stars as they emailed us.It was good location in old town, however the interior was old & not clean. My room had ants & cracked floor. Furniture has broken knobs. Room had balcony that we couldn’t walk outside bc of messy pots. Unhappy stay.

Like a small hotel apartment

Good hotel, tucked away from the street. Located behind main street buildings, so very quiet place to be.
A little hard to find the entrance Since, from outside, it’s only a doorway to walk through to the reception.
Spacious room with a setup for kitchen possibilities. No cooking or kitchen tools though. But fairly large refrigerator and cooler, for storage of all your daily foods and drinks.
Nice and very helpful staff.
Restaurant little small with place for 20 guests at a time.
Good food made by order.

Great location and the staff were excellent, service was impeccable. The airline damaged one of our luggage cases (main zippers were ripped off). We asked the hotel manager where the nearest luggage store would be. He suggested that we try to get it repaired instead, it would be cheaper. The manager himself drove our suitcase to the repair shop and delivered it back to us the next evening. The repair was professionally done (couldn’t even tell it was repaired) and the repair shop installed a heavy duty zipper that should last beyond the life of the suitcase. This was done at a fraction of the cost for a new suitcase.

The room was great, clean, and comfortable. The complimentary breakfast was excellent, good variety. The staff excelled in making our stay pleasant. We would definitely stay here again.

Just came back from our first trip to Hanoi. We booked Golden Sun Villa Hotel for their location in Old Quarter, just few minutes walk to Hoan Kiem lake. Everyone of the hotel staff were so friendly and helpful, that made us feel at home. The breakfast was great with some Hanoi specialty dishes. Jeff helped us to book all the wonderful trips around Hanoi (HaLong bay cruise, Sapa, Perfume Pagoda, Truong An Tam Coc) with very reasonable price. Thanks everyone at Golden Sun Villa Hotel, we can not say enough good thing about you. We'll see you again soon.

Golden Sun Hotel is conveniently located in the middle of the Old Quarter and adjacent to Hoan Kiem Lake. The shining star at Golden Sun (forgive the pun) is the exceptional staff. Without exception, I was always greeted with a friendly hello and smile. The staff was always eager to help me in any way that they could, and they really made me feel very comfortable. From Justin at the lobby desk, to the receptionists, the doormen, kitchen staff, and cleaning crew - all were absolutely exceptional. Friendly, hard working, and diligent are words that come to mind. Thank you for helping to make my stay in Ha Noi fantastic. If I stay in Ha Noi again, Golden Sun would be my first choice.

<5min to St Joseph and Serve great local Breakfast

Do not judge by the tiny lane into the hotel. This area is quiet from those noisy horns.

This is my third visit to hanoi. The location is convenient to walk to st joseph, or the Hoan Kiem - Dong Kinh Nghia Thuc Square. The room is spacious, well equipped, clean and cosy. I have nothing to complain. They serve great local breakfast - Pho ga/bo, Pho cuon, Bun rieu and also international breakfast. Although they do not have a wide range, but sufficient to fulfil my local craving over the 3night stay.

I have spend double the pricing to stay in 4-5 stars hotel. Of coz, their interior is much newer and stylish. Food serving has greater variety and more fusion options. But i will still love to return to Golden Sun Villa as everything is so worthy!

Home Away From Home

I chanced upon Golden Sun Villa Hotel during my last trip when I walked past their narrow alley and saw the inviting mural. I decided to check out their room and they obliged to let me view.

I vouched to stay there this trip and I’m really glad I did. Our room faced the courtyard & away from the chronic noise pollution in the old quarter. It was a very peaceful and pleasant stay.

I was utterly impressed with their breakfast! The portions were generous considering you can order as much and as many dishes on the menu as you wish and each order was prepared from scratch, including their yoghurt which is delicious - this from a 3 star hotel!!!

Their staff are extremely attentive. We will definitely stay at Golden Sun Villa in our next visit to Hanoi.

A nice small hotel near the main attractions.

The hotel is centrally located in the old quarters close to the old church and the lake. The main attractions are within walking distance. Since it is not in the main street, you will have some peaceful time in the room away from the hustle and bustle of Hanoi traffic. The services are excellent, kudos to Justin and Mia. The staff will take the extra mile to make our stay more pleasant.

The entrance to the hotel is via a small alley. I think this should be made more prominent as it is not easy to find. Overall we are very pleased with the hotel.

Fantastic staff and a great location

We cannot recommend this hotel highly enough. The staff were amazing. Justin and the team did everything they could to make our stay enjoyable. They allowed us to store our bags and use the dining room to relax in while waiting for a late flight. They recommended sights and places to eat. Nothing was too much trouble. It was such a pleasure staying here and made our visit to Vietnam even better. Breakfast was lovely, the fresh fruit, Pho, omelettes and crepes. The location was terrific - right at the edge of several districts. We loved the alley entrance way to the hotel - it was like stepping into a quiet oasis after the hustle and bustle of the busy old quarter. The double room we had was clean and very comfortable. Excellent value for our family of 4.

When the driver dropped us at the entrance of the hotel, we were all taken by surprised as the entrance of the hotel were really unimpressive. Its a very narrow entrance of about 700m in width and about 11m in length. Upon entering into the reception area, we were greeted by very friendly staff Linh. To our surprised, we were upgraded to a family room instead of the Junior Suite that we had we had booked. The room were very spacious and comfortable.
Breakfast were served at a little dinning room next to the reception area. Food were good. Service staff were very attentive too. It's within walking distance to the Old Quarters area with night markets and lots of shopping along the way. We had joined the tours from the hotel to Perfume Pagoda and Ha Long Bay. The tour company for Perfume Pagoda is not so good in terms of transportation. Whereas Wati Travel to Ha Long Bay provides very good transport and guide.
The manager - Eric from the hotel gives very quick respond on any queries posted. All the staff in the hotel were very friendly and helpful.

Amazing staff, central location, great choice!

I've stayed in the hotel for 2 nights - before and after my Sapa trip.
After booking the hotel, immediately I've received an email and a whatapp from the hotel manager, welcoming me and thanking for my choice. To be fair, I was a bit overwhelmed, but later I found this contact extremely useful as I had a direct line with my travel agent, adviser, and hotel information. I'm very thankful to Eric for being so patient and kind advising me on all sort of things and booking my travels.
The staff at the reception is the friendliest imaginable. It feels like the ladies became my good friends during my stay, offering not only services to the highest standard, but being genuinely interested in my trip. I now feel sad I might never see them again. Their smiles are so warm and welcoming. If I go back to Hanoi i'll pick this hotel.

On arrival, you're not only greeted with a smile, but also with some fresh fruit and a drink. The rooms are very nice and include a fridge, a bed, and a shower. Nice and clean. There's an extra double-glazed door to protect from the sounds inside the hotel, which works very nicely. I wish all hotels had this!
The location is awesome, with lots of local shops and restaurants around.

The hotel might be a bit hard to find because you need to go through a narrow alley (beautifully painted) and the hotel sign on the street is cluttered with other ads.

The breakfast is very nice too, served with a smile.

This is an excellent hotel in the heart of Hanoi's Old Quarter. It is a five minute walk to Hoan Kiem Lake and very close to all kinds of stores and restaurants. The rooms are very clean and include a mini fridge and a separate sitting area. Air conditioning and cable TV with a number of English-language programming makes it nice to come back to the room in the evenings. A fantastic breakfast is included with fresh fruit and juices and you have a range of menu choices-from western-style eggs to Vietnamese dishes or salads. Hotel staff and service is outstanding: they are eager to please and go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. They take care of your laundry, call your taxis and arrange your excursions, all done with a smile and utmost efficiency. This is an outstanding hotel in a great location!

Perfect convenient, clean hotel with great staff

Golden Sun Villa Hotel provided one of the best hotel stays I have ever had in my life of travel. The property is conveniently located near a central point in Hanoi's Old Quarter. It is walking distance from just about everything in town. Their staff was incredibly kind, helpful, and accommodating. Led by Kim, they helped with our bags, opened doors for us, provided a sufficient (large for Hanoi) room with hot water and comfortable beds with great pillows. They fed us delicious and quickly served breakfast every day to get us going and not take up too much of our time before we headed out to explore Hanoi. When we needed a taxi, Kim called and had the taxi arrive almost immediately, walked outside with us and gave direction to the driver in Vietnamese. Although taxi drivers running up rates is common in Hanoi, this would never happen when the car was called and dispatched by the Golden Sun Villa Hotel staff.

There are only a couple rooms on each floor, and our room didn't share any walls with other hotel guests. It was very quiet and peaceful inside despite being centrally located in a loud, bustling city. The air conditioning unit in the room was strong and kept us cool, and there were several windows we could open to get fresh air during cool evenings.

I really just cannot say enough nice things about the property and staff. Perfect hotel.

3 star hotel but 5 star staff

Ok so this is a 3 star hotel located down a tiny alleyway but it is clean, breakfast is good and it is two minutes walk to the Hoan Kiem lake with plenty of bars, restaurants and shopping very close. But....OMG the staff are just superb and go that extra mile that you simply don't get in a large hotel. We booked a 3D2N trip with Indochina Junk through Vivian at the hotel and basically the company pulled fast one due to the weather forecast and 80% of those on board aborted the trip on the first afternoon. We'll Vivian was distraught when somehow she found out the trip has been curtailed and was on the phone to me that evening full of apology (despite it being not her fault in the slightest) while we were still in Halong Bay and organised a hotel for us back in Hanoi and then negotiated a cash refund from the tour operator over and above what they were offering. As it was our anniversary she then organised a cake for us the next day and so it went on. Simply the best staff we have ever come across anywhere in the world.

Excellent Service

Our first look at hotel made us disappointed and we thought of changing the hotel as the entry to the property was quite narrow and its a very small property with less than 20 rooms, there is not much space to do anything else outside your room. But soon these feeling overtook by excellent services provided by the staff. All of them were very responsive and ready to provide quality information and help make your stay comfortable.

the breakfast was excellent with lots of choices and good services. Room size is good and location is excellent right in the center of old quarter.

however we feel that hotel can improve its air conditioning, Hanoi was very hot during our visit and the capacity of ACs were not enough to give relief. to compensate our discomfort hotel provided us complementary drop off to Airport.

スタッフの方が皆さん親切で、何かあったらすぐに対応してくださり、安心して滞在する事が出来ました。
英語得意ではなくても大丈夫でした。

ロケーションも旧市街地の中にあり、近くを散策するのも湖の方に行くのも便利です。
目の前にスーパーもあるのでお勧めです。

Thank you for your great service and kindness.
We had a good trip thanks to your hotel.

L' hotel è un 3 stelle ma in realtà è molto al di sopra di altri 4 . Premetto io avevo un monolocale con cucina che non ho utilizzato. Altre camere non so come siano.

La chambre était grande mais relativement en mauvais état
Très peu de prise de courant, aucun vers le bureau.
Salle de bain délabrée. A la réception ils m'ont dit qu'il étaient en cours de rénovation des chambre.

立地は、ホアンキエム湖まで3分、旧市街まで5分と好立地。傘の貸し出しなどのサービスもあり。最終日深夜便につき、21時頃にシャワーを借りたいとダメ元でお願いしたら、快く案内してくれたこともかなり高評価。サービス面だけで星5つに値するホテル。

The room we were given on the first day was a bit unsanitary, so we asked to change it, and they did so the next day, allowing us to spend the remaining three days in comfort.

접근성 최고.넓은 객실

접근성 뛰어나며 투어신청하니 픽업되는 용이한 위치에 성인3인이 사용하기 넉넉히 넓은방 맘에들고 조식 나쁘지 않아요..
하지만 입구가 넘 좁아 놀랬고ㅠㅠ 시설이 낡아 좀 그랬지만 먹을거리. 호안끼엠 호수 산책등은 좋아요

2박 해놨다가 생각보다 일찍 도착해서 3박 묵었는데 정말 친절하셨고 한국어 하시는 분들 계셔서 편했어요!!!!!성요셉성당이랑 가까워서 종소리도 들리고 커튼 있어서 빛 완벽하게 차단할 수 있다는 점이 좋았습니다. 조식도 맛있었는데 저희가 늦잠자느라 한 번밖에 못 먹은게 정말 아쉽습니다ㅜㅜ
