The room did not have proper locks to lock room from inside, it only had the knob lock which could be opened from a key outside. The only thing is its proximity to old quarter. Else it’s not worth.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Phoenix Palace. Anna, the manager, was incredibly kind and made us feel exceptionally welcome and cared for. She always responded to our requests with an open heart, no matter the time or complexity. Anna is undoubtedly the hotel's greatest asset. Her perfect English, warm smile, and abundant patience create an atmosphere where guests feel more like friends. We'd also like to express our gratitude to Peter for his kind assistance during our stay.
The hotel itself is comfortable and boasts an amazing location. It's clean and provides a sense of safety. While the breakfast was enjoyable, we found that the cooking lady wasn't as hospitable as the aforementioned staff members. However, on the whole, we have nothing but positive feedback about this hotel. We highly recommend the Phoenix Palace.

The negative part of staying here was that you could hear everything happening in the halls. And every other night of our stay a family checked in and screamed and yelled while running up and down the halls late at night. Sometimes people were just hanging out in the halls having loud conversations. The walls are quite thin.

The positives were that the breakfast was delicious. Small but tasty! The staff were kind and friendly. The location was great. Very close to the lake, shopping and restaurants.

Great value

This is a great hotel with great staff. The value is also pretty good. Rooms are more spacious than you would get in the heart of the Old Quarter, but the location is still very good and close to landmarks such as the Cathedral.

My only complaint is during my stay there was constant construction in the building next door. It was so loud and sounded like it was in my room. It started every day at 7:00 am, and sometimes very late at night. As soon as this construction finishes this will be an amazing place to stay!

Friendly staff

Good breakfast. All in all we stayed 5 nights and the first 2 nights we were very happy with the hotel. However, when we came back from Sapa for the last 3 nights, things didn't really worked out well for the first night. The TV wouldn't switch off after watching. Called for help but nothing done. We have no choice but to leave it on the whole night and used the towel to cover the glaring light emitting from the TV. Luckily the staff allowed us to change to another room. Next door is constructing another block and the knocking sound did not stopped even till 10.35pm. And it seemed to happen only during weekdays.

This definitely would be great help for anyone who come to Hanoi for the first time. The room had been well cleaned and beautiful. Location also is also very convenient, such as night markets and historical sites. The breakast was varied and delicios . We really enjoyed our stay here.

Exceptional service by all staff. We booked a family room for four. It was not available due to unforeseen reasons. The manager came to meet us, explained and upgraded us to two rooms. Front desk also helped with other requests without hesitation. They helped us confirm our halongbay cruise which was another nice touch. On our return from cruise their staff came running out to the opposite side of the road just to help us with our luggage.

Welcoming, helpful, friendly and clean. Loved it!

We booked this hotel at late notice (1 hour) as we learnt on arrival in Hanoi (from London), that our original hotel had closed down! We were apprehensive, as we like some time to do some research in advance before booking hotels.
I am so glad that we found this hotel! I can honestly say that I have never felt so welcome, from the moment of arrival, at any hotel in the world (and I've stayed in A LOT). Each and every member of the team of staff was exceptionally welcoming, polite, professional, friendly, efficient and smiled. This felt genuine, not forced, like they enjoyed their job and enjoyed helping their guests.
Breakfast is amazing! Coffee, teas, juices, fresh fruit, yogurt, cereal, eggs any way, daily changing hot choices, local Pho, pastries, pancakes.
Rooms and the lobby were 100% clean and wifi 100% available.
I can't recommend Phoenix Palace enough. Such good value.
But for me, it's the fabulous team of staff and how they made us feel so welcome that really stood out. We would go back!

I had just been released from hospital and they kindly upgraded us on arrival which was a really nice touch. Bearing in I spent a lot of time in the hotel, this place was very clean, comfortable, and we felt very well looked after.

The best hotel we ever stayed in

For my second stay in Hanoi, we chose without hesitation to return to Phoenix Palace First, for his AWESOME staff friendliness, attentive, and kindness! Then, to the comfortable rooms, well equipped and well maintained, the location, in a quiet street, and close to everything, walking distance such as monuments, museums, shops, grocery stores, restaurants. Also, for hearty breakfasts, all freshly cooked, and at will!! Finally, because it is still better than home!! It really felt very much like home, and the service is AWESOME! Like last year, we organized all my live tours with the hotel, a quality organization, at very reasonable prices in comparison with other local travel agencies such as Halong Bay, Sapa by night train, Ba Be Lake, Along Bay on land, and villages around Hanoi, the hotel driver. Go there with confidence, you will be very satisfied.

Absolutely perfect !

Reservation few days, with a couple of trips to other cities and of course kept our luggage without any problems. It is a boutique hotel in the heart of the old quarter. The rooms are quite spacious, equipped with all amenities and very clean as are the bathrooms. buffet was very good with fruit juices and western and oriental specialties. About staff? A group of working people as efficient as charming and loving, whose main aim was to make your stay at the hotel was pleasant, always aware of any details you needed. It would be unfair to mention anyone in particular, but we can not forget Lucy, and Manh. and especially Kevin. Absolutely recommended.

창문이 있는 객실도 옆 건물과 초근접해 있어서 큰의미는 없었음.
담배냄새가 약간 나는데 턴업 서비스가 방향제를 들큰하게 뿌려대서 더 힘들었습니다.
