The Gecko is the best hotel experience I have ever had. Lauras attitude is spot on and the staff, all happy and attentive. more

Good location and comfortable rooms (some of the higher ones have a nice view of the lake). Clean modern bathrooms. Laptops available for internet access in rooms or lobby. Good breakfast. Friendly staff and good service (I have to rate the service overall as low due to the issue below). But be very wary of the travel bookings... I booked... more

Located down a very quite alley in the old quarter, this is a beautiful hotel. Very friendly and helpful staff. We stayed in a large room with one double and two single beds, and it was not too cramped with our two teenage children. When I go to Hanoi again, I will stay in this hotel again. more

I stayed here on my first trip to Vietnam and greatly enjoyed my stay. The room was spacious and very modern, with a comfortable bed, nice TV, and lovely bathroom. I found these features to be unusual in Asia, among other hotels in the price range. The breakfast was also very good. The hotel manager and other staff went out... more

They took out luggage up to the room, which was spacious and clean. the bathroom was a nice size and also very clean.... more

We chose this hotel because of the positive reviews on tripadvisor and they are absolutely right. It is perfectly located only a few steps away from the lake and water puppets, and right in the heart of the Old Quarter, which is buzzing. We saw 3 rooms (our first wasn't ready so we were put in an alternative, then had... more

We found Gecko Haotel on trip advisor and it is easy to see why it has so many great reviews! The rooms offer much needed comfort in the heart of Hanoi's hustle and bustle streets. The staff are all friendly and the lady who manages the Hotel speaks great English and is so helpful, obvioulsly trying her best to out... more
