I felt home away from home. The staff were so helpful and kind. The location can’t get any better. There is also quiet place upstairs if you need to work. Thank you so much for making my stay amazing! Thank you Milow for taking care of me when I got sick.

The owner and staff are really sweet. I was there for late night and early morning so booked a cheap hotel in great location just in front of dong xuan market. There is no elevator but they carried and brought down our luggage. They were very loving and sweet.

Located in the old quarter near the lake, it was a very easy walk up to restaurants and markets in the centre. The hotel is quaint and has a sense of history about it with its decor and fittings. From the time we arrived until we left everything was perfect and the staff could not been more obliging. We could make bookings for trips and could seek advice on places of interests or restaurants in the area. We could join in with the many exercise class around the lake each morning from about 5.30. I would like to thank Ms Jenny, Thuy, Len Tuan and Dung for making our Hà Nội experience even better. If we ever have the opportunity we will return to the little Hanoi hotel again.

I booked my stay for a night and ended up extending it to four nights. The location turned out to be perfect. Still close to the old quarter but not in the middle of that hectic environment. The room was neat and I particularly liked the attention to detail in decorations and amenities. i stayed in a private room with a king size bed. bed was really comfortable. it really feels like a boutique hotel even tho it is advertised as homestay. the staff was always very attentive and helpful. there's no breakfast but there's a café and there are plenty of options to get food around. the neighborhood felt self and lively with many locals going about their life/having dinner around. I would definitely recommend the place for people that want to explore Hanoi and want a convenient location, comfortable space not in the middle of busy streets, and enjoy exploring nice cafés and artsy vibes in the neighborhood (manzi, bookworm hanoi, bluebird's nest). thank you Hanique, you really made my stay unique, will definitely come back!

This capsule hostel is brand-new, modern, and sparkling clean, with cozy capsules that are both private and comfortable. The staff are warm and friendly, always ready to help with anything you need. What makes this place special is not only the design but also its unbeatable location – right in the Old Quarter, just a 2-minute walk to the famous Train Street and the vibrant local food street. It’s more than just a stay – it’s a fun and unique experience, especially if you’re traveling with friends or in a group. Highly recommended for those who want comfort, convenience, and something different in Hanoi.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

One of the best hostels I've stayed at in Asia! The hostel is really beautiful with great facilities e.g. a hair dryer and a pool to use. The staff are really friendly, they let me check-out late, they stored my luggage for me whilst I did the loop, and they let me change the dates of my booking last minute. The beds are comfortable with a bedside light and storage locker as well as lockers big enough for my 55L bag. Great location. Really enjoyed the free walking tour which helped me meet other travellers.

Great hostel, great location and staff is available for any questions you could have and speak good English. We booked a room as we were just arriving in Vietnam for a long trip, the room was good, confortable and clean. The rooftop is the place to go if you want to meet some backpackers and take a drink! Definitely recommended
