This time, my senior and I went on a 5-night, 6-day trip. It was difficult to understand at first as the hotels of the same group were lined up next to each other, but once you got used to it, there was no problem. I took the 86 bus from the airport and got off in front of the Melia Hotel, and it was a very convenient location, within walking distance, and there were many delicious restaurants nearby. The hotel staff were also very kind and friendly. They call out to us as we pass by the front desk. The breakfast was also abundant and delicious. I highly recommend this hotel for your trip to Hanoi.

Tired appearance
The room we stayed in was quite dated. There was only one pillow allocated per person in the room where they should at least have two pillows per person. The room was fairly clean, but we didn’t feel comfortable because of how dated the room was. The staff at reception when we checked in was very good, friendly and willing to help. The restaurant staff was a bit unfriendly, but not a big deal. Food was average. Location was down a side street so it was quiet. Overall, this hotel is ok for someone who is passing through for one night or two on a low to mid range budget, but for the price you are likely to find better choices in the area with more comfortable rooms.

Good location in the old quarter, difficult to find (taxi driver drove in circles). Hotel did not confirm our airport pickup in time. We used the service for the airport return and it was great. Dining room for breakfast had a good selection but arrive early as food is not replenished fast enough to keep up with the demand. Our reservation was for 5 nights, we left for one night for Ha Long bay (but kept the room as it was TET and we were concerned of a sell out). On check-in the room was extremely small, we kept it for the night but upgraded for $10 a night for the remainder of our stay. Well worth it. The 2nd room was huge. The front desk was very helpful with printing out airline tickets and boarding passes.

Location was great! But we didn’t even get the hotel that we booked. They gave us Splendid Pearl light. This building did not have a lift.. Shower head was all covered in lime scale and the toilet badly needs plumbing work and renovations. The power outlets were either located at awkward locations without table top and the only one at the bedside had a gaping hole. This cannot be too safe. Doorway was doubled up as a storage space for towels so access to our room was narrow. 🚨🚨🚨 fire hazard... However despite the dismal conditions, I must say the room was clean.

The service was great, helpful and friendly. The room is fine - dark and cozy. The TV did not work , but didn't fix. There is not divide between shower and toilet -- after having shower, the floor is wet all over the bathroom. The location is great. Good value for the money.

Want to go back to Hanoi and the Splendid Hotel
Splendid is a fabulous hotel in a fabulous location. For the first night I had picked the cheapest room and I hated it -- small, cramped, smelly. Bathroom with a shower that shared floor space with sink and toilet. So then I switched to a family room for 15 a night more and I loved it. Spacious, balcony, great bathroom, comfortable bed. The daily breakfast was great. The entire staff, all 14, were the loveliest, sweetest, most helpful young people. They made my stay doubly good.

Great location. Close to lots of shops, restaurants, parks and places to walk. What we didnt like is that there was no elevator!! It was also tucked down a little side ally, so you had to walk to a main road to get a taxi. Wasn't a bad hotel, but there looked like there were other, nicer, hotels near by that we would have rather stayed at.

Great value for money
The stay didn't start so well as we was offered a room with bad smell and what we think is mold on the roof. Smelled like that atleast. We were reallocated to a quite noisy room next to the reception upon our request. The next day the, upon their day managers initiative, moved us to a much better room. The second night was therefore much better. Over all the staff was really trying to do their best to help. Service was really top. Breakfast was good. The area is interesting with many small restaurants, tourist companies and hotells. Hotel is recommended.

Well located, good staff, disappointing facilities
The facilities are disappointing. The room seemed old and was very tight. It was supposed to be a king bed but instead it was two twin beds pushed together. The whole bedroom and bathroom seemed old and were not well taken care of. Breakfast was ok, though nothing special. On the bright side, the staff was nice and helpful and it is walking distance to good restaurants and places of interest.

Fantastic hotel in ideal Old Quarter location
Our stay at Splendid Holiday Hotel was brilliant from the moment we arrived. Although initially booked as a superior twin room, we were upgraded to a family room with larger beds and an excellent view over St Joseph's cathedral. The hotel had lovely, clean facilities, rooms were well presented and the shower had excellent pressure. A short walking distance to many local food and tourist areas as well as from the bus stop arriving from Hanoi airport: our only regret was not staying longer!
