Amazing way to see the full city of Hanoi!
We unfortunately went when the weather was overcast so the views werent as good as they could be however the experience was still unbelievable!
You do have to pay VD230 000 per person however I truly believe it is worth every cent! Theres also options to have professional photos done and printed at a reasonable VD100 000.
My recommendation would be to go at later afternoon so you could watch the sunset and then have the opportunity to take pictures in both daylight and nightlight which is really great with the luminating hearts around the building.

A great place the see the whole Hanoi in a glance. Walking on the glassfloor in the 65th floor is a nice photo and selfie opportunity. We found it but difficult to find the elevator up, since it's not in the street level of Lotte Center, but in the bottom floor (...entrance is marked clearly outside the building, but not when you are inside the department store) Tickets at 230.000 VDN (about 8 Euros) felt expensive compared to the general price level in Hanoi

We visited the observation deck right at 6:30- and it was the perfect time! We paid the lower fee, got to see the city in the light, saw the sunset, and stayed to see the city lights at night. There are 2 glass floor observation areas and they are great for photos. It is difficult to get good photos at night as there are a lot of lights on in the building and so there is a lot of reflection. If you want good photos definitely go during the day or during the sunset.

All cities must have one, and South Korean conglomerate Lotte has ensured that Hanoi gets its observation deck. The building itself is not particularly impressive, nor is the relatively mild height of 267m and entrance fees of VND230,000. But Lotte’s attempt to make up for these is by offering visitors an acrophobic experience and unique photo opportunity with 2 heart-dropping glass platforms 65 floors above street level. The night view is just mediocre and unlike other observation decks where night photos can be taken if you place your phone against the glass, this is disappointingly impossible here, possibly due to the thickness and angle of the glass.

It only costs 200,000 vnd to get to the top (about 9usd). The observation deck is on the 65th floor and if the day is clear, than you'll be able to see most of Hanoi from above. But on the day I went it was smoggy, so you couldn't see much, which probably explains why there were hardly any other people up there. The glass floor made the visit at least somewhat fun, even on a bad weather day.

At a time of a pandemic, you would think that everyone who is a resident in Vietnam is treated the same. However their nationalistic policies with different prices are crazy during these times. Residency doesn't matter. Only if you are Vietnamese....

230000 vnd for adult. Not very worth it I think.... it’s just ok. You probably won’t even need 30 mins up there.
Theres a Lotte mart at the basement, can do some shopping.

After 3 days of very hot weather we decided we needed 5 star consumerism and air conditioning
It was like John Lewis upmarket with security guards and really lacking the customer care.
This was expensive and not very pleasant experience
We tried to go to 63 floor and the 'man' said it was a resteraunt so no quick drink
So he informed us we could go to 38th and got in lift with us
Tea and couple of cocktails later we did have a great view but felt uncomfortable throughout
The highlight was the most electronically advanced toilets Seat warmer ,front wash,back wash,dryer all controlled from a control panel next to toilet
Tried the oscillator button as well, but you can test that yourself There were two other buttons I was terrified they would play music
Overall the view ,the long drinks,the English books we bought and the great air conditioning make this a good two hour visit The electronic lavatory was memorable but does it count as progress
This felt like high security rather than anywhere near us customer care

Well this is slightly a bit more expensive but if you wish to see the entire city of Hanoi from above you can come here . You can purchase the ticket on B1 floor and there a lift than bring you up to 65th floor of this building . Inside there some cafe or lounge where you can buy drink and chill while overlooking the city of Hanoi

Whats the best time to visit the deck? Morning or evening?

I would say just before sunset. In that way, you can have both daytime and evening view of Hanoi. During December, the sun is no longer visible around 5:00pm. So if you arrive at 4-4:30pm, you can have a clear view of Hanoi. You can stay for an hour or two until the city lights up and then you can have a nighttime view of the city.

how much does it cost to go up to the observation deck ? and what are the opening times ?
kimbeanz
Singapore, Singapore7 contributions
Hi William! The opening hours are 08:30 ~ 23:00 (Ticketing Counter close at 22:00, I suggest going in the evening time where you can catch the sunset and also see the beauty of Hanoi nightlife!
For adults (above 12y/o) the price for a ticket will be 230000VND (apprx SGD$14) while for a child the price will be 1700000VND (SGD$10)
Hope you will enjoy the place as much as I did! Take note its a distance away from the Old Quarter so plan your time right if you want to catch the sunset or anything! Plus evening traffic is rather crazy so it took longer to get a ride to Lotte Centre

Hello, do you have to purchase a separate ticket to go to the roof top bar? And do you have to make a reservation to go the roof top bar? Thank you :)

No you don't need a ticket to the roof top bar. You enter via the Lotte Hotel lobby and get the lift to the 63rd floor. You generally done need a reservation but it might be a good idea if you are having dinner there.
Can you tell me, please, how much does it cost for students? Thank you!
