Where to stay

Hanoi has an abundance of hotels at different price points. The majority of visitors stay in the Old Quarter (near Hoan Kiem Lake) or in the Ho Tay expat district (near West Lake). 

We recommend staying in the Old Quarter for an authentic tourist experience. Alternatively, if you are elderly or do not want to immerse yourself in the middle of Hanoi’s hustle and bustle, we recommend staying in the West Lake area, where it's cleaner, quieter, more relaxed, and only a short (and cheap) taxi drive to the Old Quarter. Both places have accommodations at very reasonable prices and are within arm’s reach of delicious food and exciting things to do. 

Below are some suggestions for your stay in Hanoi.  All of the hotels mentioned can be booked easily through hotel search websites such as hotels.com or tripadvisor.com, where there are many more options for all price ranges, locations and services.
