The rooms are not clean. Toiletries left in the room from previous occupants. AC is central so you cannot control the room temp. Overall the private rooms and in disarray and dirty. No windows. The staff is generally nice and good location. You can find better in Hanoi

While the staff was nice and the location is good, my “deluxe” single room was dirty with leftover q tip under my bed, a hair clip on the sink, and a decaying old room with unknown brown/yellow stains on the walls. The AC does not work independently in the rooms like most homestays so you will be at the same temp as the entire building. They did let me borrow a fan which was completely covered with dust. Keep in mind you will walk 4-5 flights of narrow winding stairs to get to the room. So, again the staff was nice but I would look elsewhere as a traveler.

Great location, clean room and helpful staff - what else do you need at this price? The one minor issue was they only had one remote control to operate the air-con in the whole building which meant we struggled to get the temperature right for us (we ended up being cold at 3am and needed to use the duvets from the wardrobe). Other than that - highly recommended

My time in Hanoi was facilitated with joy, comfort and ease by staying with Luxury Backpackers.
Upon arrival, I was welcomed warmly and provided options of excursions with honest advice about the most popular and the one with the best value for money.
I was recommended delicious local cuisine.
My room was clean (and cleaned daily) and equipped with everything I needed.
The location was perfect as I was a walkable distance to many Hanoi hot spots.
The guiding light to my enjoyable time in Hanoi at Luxury Backpackers was Linh. From first meeting, she was friendly, genuine, and joyful presence that I could trust. This is needed and so refreshing as a solo traveler. I was able to leave Hanoi having a fabulous time and a new found friend.

Get the best value for this place! Book it!

Just a few steps away from Old Quarter where restaurants and shops are available all day & night. The hotel/hostel itself is decent - could improve a bit on a few things but already good at a level of standard. Just one thing, as a person who doesn't smoke nor fancies being around smoke-filled environments, this is what they need to come up with strategies to bring it down as other guests smoke everywhere, sometime even in the bathroom, and there was no protocol to eradicate this issue. The bed is so comfy. I loved the fact that there were bedside space and on-the-wall hookers for personal stuff. The mini fan also worked and I was glad it was there because it could het warmer or hotter and when the AC couldn't reach me, I still had my mini fan to keep me cool. Great!

Please be aware, at the time of this writing (23/09/2023) that there is no lift so going to your room requires traversing up and down the staircase :(. However, putting that aside, this hotel is located in Old Quarter, surrounded with many dining options nearby. It is also located near a cathedral.

The receptionist, Linh, is fantastic. She provided great suggestion and tips about Hanoi culture, things to do, places to eat. She ensured that the guests are welcome.

I was booked here for just a few nights in March when the Covid-19 pandemic was just starting. The hostel took EXCELLENT precautions, taking down itineraries and taking temperatures every morning. Since my tours got cancelled I holed myself up here and had the absolute loveliest time. My room was GORGEOUS and the free breat every morning was delicious.

I wanted to book ** tour that costed $95. However, the guy at the reception tricked me into booking a tour that costed 105$ saying there is a tax of $10 and portrayed to me that I was been given a free upgrade to ***. I later checked that all the prices are including taxes...even the invoice given to me did not show tax component.

Decent place only stayed fir 9 hours. Came in late and left early. Decent breakfast. Friendly staff except they asked at 1130 for us to go to bed so they could close. The bed was a bit hard.

Clean, central location and super friendly

We were a group of 7 who rented out the entire 10-bed dorm room to ourselves. We received a key to the room. Worked out great. Clean firm beds, great set up with privacy curtains and two toilet/showers and one sink. Note that it is on the top 6th floor with no elevator so make sure everyone in your group can handle the climb. Breakfast included was solid and tasty, staff helped with taxi to and from airport for very reasonable price and no hassle, and they all just did so much to help us during our stay. Never once did anyone push tours or anything like that at all. I would highly recommend their dorms if that suits you or their private rooms. They also offer reasonably priced laundry service!

Hanoi the perfect chaos

It's crazy everywhere you go in Hanoi and therefore you need to get a place where you can settle down, get travel advice, cheap beer, wifi and a comfortable bed with a aircon.
This is a Good location in middle of old quarter but not in main road which means it's more quiet.

You can also expect an good International breakfast which include bacon, eggs and toast or some flap jacks.

I could recommend this place to young travelers.

Great hostel, very helpful, good spacious bunks.

Great stay, incredibly helpful, flexible staff who helped with booking tours, buying a si card and currency exchange. Able to leave baggage there while off on trips. Reasonably nice communal area with tables where you can get some relative peace and quiet

Good clean hotel with good location

Staff were super - helped us to call the taxi we booked at the airport & walked us out to the road where the taxi was waiting. We felt most welcome upon arrival. Place was clean. Shower was good. Breakfast was good too. Location was great. Only snag was no elevator but will definitely stay there again if we are there.

Great -- but other guests not so great

The hostel was nice and clean, however, people in my dorm were not great (not the hostels fault, but a definite bummer). Keep in mind that the bathrooms are in the room and other people in the dorm may decide to come in and shower after midnight and then blow dry there hair.. two nights in a row. The staff was fantastic though and I felt like they were very helpful despite my encounters with other guests who were disrespectful -- maybe post signs in dorm telling people to not use blow dryer after 10 pm and respect others after 11 am.

Good for first time travellers

It's my first time travelling abroad so I had to book the most recommended hostel and I came across this. My booking included one bunk bed in a 10bed dorm. The curtains per bed provided privacy and and the bathroom and shower was good. Breakfast was also okay, helpful and friendly staff and they dont have to keep your passport. I only had a minor problem with the light in my bed, it was a little dark and I think the light needed changing but other than that it was all great. I would recommend this hostel for first time travellers.

Perferct hostel experience in the perfect location

This hostel is everything every backpacker dream of. Sam, at the front, was extremely helpful and honest with booking all my tours to Sapa and Ha Long Bay. The rooms are extremely comfortable and clean. Breakfast is amazing...if you're staying in Hanoi, definitely choose this hostel. Best hostel experience I've ever been in.

Nice hostel

Nice hostel next to other hostels. Nice location, easy to walk to different attractions. Breakfast and food options were delicious. Safe hostel - you have a key/card for the room and your own locker. They clean the rooms everyday. I caught a cold because of the A.C.

Good location if you don't mind the 4.30 roosters

The staff who work here are lovely and you cannot fault the breakfasts or the ease of the location, but I had two problems with this hostel. First, I was woken every day by the roosters across the road, and I had no desire to wake up at 4.30 every day. The second was that the dorms aren't gender segregated. I woke up one morning at 4am to find a guy sitting at the bottom of my bed.

Great choice!

We stayed at the Luxury Backpacker for 4 nights in a private room with our own bathroom/shower. The hostel is very clean and comfortable. The staff was nice; helped us book the taxi to the airport and escorted us to the taxi when they arrived! The block the hostel is on is great... you don't have to go far for something good to eat! The hostel also included breakfast which was a choice between western breakfast (eggs, omelet, bread, jam, etc) or vietnamese (pho, pork, noodles, etc), coffee, lemongrass tea and juices as well. A great choice if you are looking for a hostel in Hanoi.

着いてすぐランクアップしないかと言われ、別棟に連れて行かれました。ランクアップ後の部屋は窓がある2階の部屋で、エレベーターもありましたがドアの動きが不安でした。
ハノイは夜中うるさいと聞いていたので、最初の予約通りのスーペリアダブルルームへ。写真の通りの部屋で、窓はなく
心持ち静かでした。
何より嬉しかったのはバスルームのトイレに扉がついていたことです。私の経験ではバスルーム自体には扉があってもその中でトイレに個別に扉があることが少なく、今回友人と同室だったので有難かったです。
トイレットペーパーは流せません。ハノイはどこも流せません。部屋のクリーニングは毎回フロントに伝えればしてくれます。
立地は抜群でどこでも歩いていけます。ただ道が悪いのでスーツケースを持って歩くのはとても大変でした。行きに空港バスでハノイ駅まで行き、そこからホテルまで20分ほどスーツケースを持って歩きましたが腕が筋肉痛になりました。帰りはホテルの近くまでgrabを呼びました。
総合的に立地も清潔さも満足度の高いホテルでした。

I don't know why this hostel is so highly rate. I had a 10 bed mixted dorm. On the 6th floor so if you have big luggage it's hard to get there. The room was SO HOT, A/C not working, lucker were not locking, really basic shower. Matress are hard and pillows are horrible.
I had better hostel in Hanoï for that price

Fint nok værelse for en nat eller to

Vi sov på privat værelse og det var fint og rent, men resten af hostelet, var meget mørkt, spændende trapper og personalet kiggede kun på sin telefon og foreslog aldrig deres ture eller noget. Vi var nødt til at finde et andet hostel at lave ha giang loop med, fordi der ikke var noget engagement fra dem.

Overall, it was an okay experience. But we left the apartment with the AC turn on and when we came back it was turn off, when we said that we didn't want cleaning service that day. Also we book a bus with them to halong and we left more than one hour after the stablished hour, so I won't recommend booking additional services with them if you are in a rush.

Pleassant Stay

It's a pleasant stay. I was there for 3 nights. The staff were able to provide timely support and assistance. They were really helpful and friendly. The location is quite near to the old town and the lake. The room was in general clean. There's little room for improvement in the cleanliness of the bathrooms, but just a little. There's slight odour.
