Halong Bay Marina Tours

A great stay in the heart of the old quarter! Great location in the middle of shops/restaurants and about 10min walk to sites like Hoan Kiem Lake and Train Street. Room and bathroom were clean and perfect size for a solo traveler. Of note, there was no desk just a small coffee table. The window didn't really face the street but was enough to get some sunlight in. Bottled water, bathrobe, and sandals were a nice addition. Breakfast was a nice spread with Vietnamese and continental options. There wasn't a ton of seating so you may have to share a table with other guests. Staff was friendly and accommodating; no issues checking in or out.

The Oriental Jade was our home for five nights in the most exciting part of Hanoi. It was lovely to walk back in after a day out exploring the bustle of the Old Quarter and be greeted by a front desk staff that genuinely was happy to see us and also interested if we had had a good time in their lovely city. We travel often, and when we can, stay in 5 star hotels. As we drove away to the airport (in a car provided gratis by the hotel), we both remarked that we may just have experienced the finest service we’ve ever received. Two weeks later, and neither of us has come up with a single flaw. Kudos to management and each and every one of the staff we interacted with. Really exceptional. Thank you again.
