The room was very nice but the staff made our stay special. Antony, the general manager went out of his way to recommend great restaurants, spa services and tours. He was spot on with his recommendations. Also his tips about ATMs, safety on the streets and other services were so appreciated. The rest of the staff were equally helpful and kind. We would highly recommend this hotel and look forward to visiting again. Thank you to all the staff but especially Antony.

Avoid!

This property was a major disappointment. The room I was given was not in a liveable or hygienic condition, and nothing matched the standards shown online. The environment was unsafe for me, especially as I’m disabled and rely on clean, accessible accommodation.

I informed the staff immediately, but they were unhelpful and refused to offer a refund, despite the serious condition of the room. I had to leave for my own health and safety.

I strongly advise future travelers to avoid this property. There are far better options that actually care about guests’ wellbeing.

Very good location. Many good dining/drinking and shopping options within a 300 metre radius. Breakfast food options were limited but average for this level of accommodation in Hanoi - everything was fresh and staff were very helpful.

All the staff were accommodating and genuinely friendly throughout my stay. However, I encountered one issue with a lady at the reception who, unfortunately, did not seem fair or professional in assigning a room based on what I had paid for. Thankfully, a gentleman—whom I believe is a manager—intervened and resolved the situation promptly, ensuring I received the room I originally requested.

While I appreciate the overall service, I was disappointed with her attitude, which did not reflect the level of hospitality expected from a front desk representative. I believe further training in customer service and hospitality management would be beneficial for her.

Aside from that incident, everything else was excellent. The room was very clean, with housekeeping attending daily. The food was exceptional, and the hotel’s location in the heart of the Old Quarter is perfect.

I would still rate the hotel 100% for its overall service and amenities. I truly enjoyed and loved my stay—except for that one unfortunate moment. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Excellent Hotel!

Our stay was excellent! The front counter staff was very helpful and arranged any activities we wanted to do. They even lent me their phone charger until i was able to buy one! The breakfast was excellent with a wide range of foods to choose from. The shower was HOT and the room was clean and beds were very comfortable! We would definately stay there again!

Excellent support and service from the staff. We have a family of six (two adults and four children), and booked two rooms. The reception staff were very considerate and provided a rollaway bed (free of charge), and arranged rooms immediately adjacent to each other. Excellent location in the busy Old Quarter and also very quiet inside the hotel. The staff were also happy for us to store our luggage for two nights when we visited Ha Long Bay (before returning back to the hotel for another night).
The staff also arranged a transfer to Ha Long Bay for our family in a seven seat vehicle, and it was a much cheaper option than using Grab or a website.
I rate this hotel and the staff extremely highly.

The area around the hotel is very busy - which is to be expected, considering the location. But the hotel is an oasis of peace and quiet.
Everything, from the spacious rooms to the delicious buffet breakfast was above expectations. However, it is the staff that makes it truly incredible.

The hotel layout, decor and furniture are oozing with the Vietnamese charm- loved the architecture of inside of the building.
The front desk staff were very kind and helpful( both night and day staff).
Pho for breakfast was an excellent idea for cultural experience. The location of the hotel was convenient.
Only thing that wasn’t excellent was that the bathtub was very old and caulking around the bathtub was crumbling - it looked not clean because it was very old, not because it wasn’t cleaned well. Overall experience was excellent.

This hotel felt like it needed a good clean in places (in the bedroom) and some modernising/refreshing. I.e new shower curtains. My room wasn’t particularly soundproof either so a fair bit of noise transferred from around the corridor and lobby a couple of floors below.

The hotel staff were really friendly/ helpful though.

Location alone is a good reason to stay at this hotel, but the staff here are excellent and more than helpful. Anthony, and the rest of the front desk will help you with all your plans and put a smile on your face. The rooms are adequate, and the property is a little dated, but if you can over look that, you will be very happy choosing this hotel. The breakfast is very good, and the neighborhood is safe, but incredibly busy. Much like most of Hanoi, the side walks are difficult to walk on because of motor bikes parked on them. A great hotel in a great location

Couple get away

This hotel was in a perfect location. The staff was friendly. The room was nice. Even though we did try to get a quieter room, the walls are thin so in the morning around 6am it got a little noisy from other guests and staff (not street noise). If you can tolerate this, the hotel is quite fine and I would recommend it to others traveling to Hanoi.

Great experience

I'd done a lot of research into Old Quarter hotels and this one kept tickin all the boxes. We weren't disappointed when we got there either. The staff were so friendly and helpful, our room was comfortable and larger than I'd expected, and the location can't be beaten. It was out calm haven in the middle of the hustle and bustle of Hanoi. We ordered room service on our first night there and unfortunatley the food wasn't fantastic, but breakfasts were ok. Would happily recommend his hotel to any of my friends and family.

Would definitely go back

This was the perfect hotel for our stay in the old quarter of Hanoi. The staff were wonderful and helpful from wake up calls, to arranging for a taxi, to directions and providing maps to locations in the quarter. They even helped us arrange for a massage at a wonderful spa and advised us on what we should pay for taxis etc. rooms were clean,breakfast which is included was a great mix of western and Asian cuisine. Not a single complaint.

We were very impressed by the Dolce Vita. We initially stayed there before leaving for Halong Bay for three days. We were upgraded to a fantastic room which was spacious with a large bathroom plus balcony. Upon our return to Hanoi we stayed there a further two nights and once again were upgraded. The staff were very friendly and we would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel and would definitely stay there again ourselves.

Ok 3-star hotel, ekcellent breakfast. The internet functions well at least in the lobby. The hotel is in the midle of the most exiting quarter of the city; however the street in front of the hotel is so buzy with motorbikes that it should be considered, especially by elderly people.

ホテル側の対応が悪かった訳ではありませんが、予約条件の部屋とは違ったり、実際宿泊していない１泊分の返金はないのか、エクスペディアからの回答が欲しいです。

Et udmærket sted. Et forholdsvist stort sted med venligt personale. Restaurant åben også om aftenen. Der er ikke ret mange spisesteder lige i nærheden.
De fleste værelser har vindue ud til en skat. Der er begrænset varmt vand, men nok til et bad ad gangen.

The staff was friendly and was actually very normal acting people. Other staff at other hotels have been so friendly that it did not feel natural if you understand what I mean. I really liked this staff and I found them honest and trustworthy! The hotel itself was pretty good. It was clean, pretty big and had a decent breakfast. I would recommend this hotel to friends as a hotell as it was good value for money and good location.

Sehr durchschnittliches Hotel...

Das Hotel befindet sich in einer guten zentralen Lage in der Altstadt von Hanoi. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten sind gut erreichbar.

Leider ist das Hotel bereits sehr abgewohnt und besonders sauber war unser Zimmer auch nicht. (viele Haare / fleckige Bettwäsche / abgerockter Teppich). Die Zimmer mit Fenster zum Innenhof verfügen über keine Frischluftzufuhr. (Fenster befinden sich innerhalb des Hotels)

Unser Aufenthalt war von Anfang bis zum
Ende eine sehr unglückliche Konstellation wenn man es halbwegs höflich ausdrücken möchte.

Bei Abreise wollte man uns noch die bereits über Expedia gezahlten Übernachtungskosten in Rechnung stellen. Ein Mitarbeiter war sehr aufdringlich was das buchen von Ausflügen anging.

Der hoteleigene Flughafentransfer hatte leider auch noch 20 Minuten Verspätung weil man uns kurzerhand mit anderen Gästen zusammenlegte (ohne Rücksprache versteht sich zum Preis eines Einzeltransfers) und dann noch den Rezeptionisten deutlich darum bitten musste die chinesischen Mitfahrer zum einsteigen aufzufordern um unseren Flug nicht zu verpassen.

Unser Aufenthalt war leider alles andere als Rund und können das Hotel so nicht empfehlen. Auch haben wir das Hotel aufgrund eines Fitnessstudios gebucht. (die Bilder des Hotels deklarieren klar einen Fitnessbereich durch Hanteln) Diesen gibt es seit einiger Zeit auch nicht mehr wie uns an der Rezeption geschildert wurde.

Wer nur eine gute Lage und ein Bett zum schlafen braucht der kann sich sicher auch hier wohlfühlen.
