Melia Hanoi

This hotel is my top choice for business trips. It's an apartment-style setup with all the necessary furniture and amenities, plus an attached restaurant. There's even a hot spring bath on the first floor, which is a big plus for people from northern China.

The hotel's location is excellent, and the environment is pleasant. The facilities are comprehensive, and the rooms are tidy, hygienic, and clean. The staff provides great service, and the breakfast selection is also quite good.

The breakfast is really good and plentiful, the best I've ever had in any hotel! (I'm over 50 and have stayed in many well-known brand hotels across various countries).

Meliá Hanoi is a fantastic hotel. It has an 'old money' vibe with an impressive lobby and spacious rooms. The breakfast offers a rich variety of both Western and Asian dishes, all made with quality ingredients and expertly prepared – truly deserving of its international five-star rating. The location is excellent, with convenient transportation options. The airport's 86 bus stop is just 300m away, and the E11 freebus ring line stop is 400m away. Grab taxis are easily accessible right outside the hotel. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and it's within walking distance of many attractions around Hoan Kiem Lake. It's a quiet oasis amidst the hustle and bustle, with lush greenery visible from the rooms, offering convenience without the noise. The only downside was the front desk staff, who were rather aloof and expressionless. They only answered direct questions, and if you asked again, they'd simply tell you to scan a QR code for self-service.

The room was a pretty standard size, a bit old-fashioned. There's a small bar downstairs, but no discounts for guests checking in. They should consider offering some special deals.

Nice, nice, nice. It's clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, not bad. Nice, nice, nice. It's clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, clean, not bad.
