3 Stars Hotels in Hanoi

Vietnam’s capital city has a great blend of East and West with its Sino-Vietnamese traditions mixed with French elegance. It is filled with pre-colonial architecture, narrow streets, and a modern skyline. It is dubbed it the ‘Paris of Asia’. It is a charming city that has been highly-visited for decades with much to offer overseas travellers including landmarks, parks, temples, and museums.

There are a plethora of accommodation options in the city and the majority of these are mid-range properties. In fact, there are around 300 three-star hotels in Hanoi, most of which are in the Hoan Kiem area of the city and feature a good selection of room types, free internet access, and onsite dining. Of all of these 3-star properties, the Oriental Central Hotel and Hanoi Lotus Boutique Hotel are the two most popular choices.
