From the best hotel group in Hanoi, we checked out the other hotels on our walks around. We have stayed here 3 times now once in 2004 and twice in august 2011. attentive staff, clean facilities. A great position in Ma May st, in the old quater of hanoi. The tour orgainiser was helpful and not pushy. they recently emailed... More

We traveled in Vietnam in September 2011 (two middle age couples). This hotel made a very good impression. Simple, clean, very friendly. It is located in the old center in walking distance from the famous lake, etc (not that there is too much see in Hanoi). A special word we have to say about travel manager Mr. Vuong Manh .... More

I don't know what this hotel is currently called but it used to be Hanoi Elegance. I decided to stay at this place because the rooms are nice and the staff was very welcoming and spoke great English. Do negotiate a better price if you want to stay here though. Criticisms: We stayed in room 205 which overlooked the office... More

We had heard in advance concerns echoed often on Tripadvisor about problems with airport transfers in Vietnam, and there are nearly always reviews for most hotels that find fault with the staff, rooms, or location.

We had the room overlooking the lobby which was a tad odd, but it was a really smart use of space in the building. There was... More

The Hanoi Elegance Emerald is one of 6 different Elegance chain hotels in the Old Quarter of Hanoi. Collectively the chain is well recommended, but travellers should go into booking the Emerald with their eyes open. The hotel has been extensively reviewed on Trip Advisor and certainly has some stand out features. I will not go into the detail that... More

The service is great here with charming reception staff particularly the friendly and gracious Ang and her fellow receptionists. They were the best part of our 2 week stay at this hotel though the very tasty omlettes I had for breakfast are a very close second. Vegetarian guests are particularly in luck as Tamarind vegetarian restaurant is directly across from... More

I would highly recommend the Hotel Elegance hotel. Please note that there are 6 different hotels that they manage. My girlfriend and I stayed at the one on 85 Ma May Street. It is right in the Old Quarter where much of the action is. We paid $39 a night for the Superior Room. (if you want a larger room,... More
