Stayed here on and off over a period of two weeks while experiencing Hanoi, Halong Bay, Cat Ba and Haiphong. Classic St Hotel made a great base camp with friendly, helpful management and staff. It was the perfect place to meet up and spend time with our son and his girlfriend, in the course of their cycling trip from NZ to the UK.
When we showed interest in the intricately carved carrot flowers, the delightfully cheerful kitchen staff all dropped what they were doing and gave us a demonstration of this delicate art, which we much appreciated.
Much thought and effort has been put into the furnishings and decor in the lobby and dining areas, creating a wonderful South East Asian ambiance.
