Hanoi E Central Luxury Hotel & Restaurant is placed in the heart of Old Quarter just a 10-minute drive to Hanoi Train Station. Dong Xuan Market is just 100 metres away while Noi Bai International Airport is a 45-minute drive away.

This was a great location. The staff were so helpful and friendly. Lily was especially helpful in helping us organize travel when we left Hanoi. She also gave great recommendations for a restaurant. Even when we left town she checked on us to make sure we caught the correct bus to get to our location when she learned we had purchased a bus ticket ticket she called that company and told them that we had already paid for it and they returned our money and we’re very apologetic when we reached our destination.

Really nice staff and they make a great effort, so that you feel welcome. As we had work to do, we had a wish for switching the room, and it was no problem. :) The room was clean and big. The breakfast buffet had something for everyone. They had 6 warm dishes, fruits, toast and pancakes. And as we said, that we are vegetariana, they even told the kitchen to put 1 or 2 warm vegetarian dishes to the buffet.

    Amazing boutique hotel with super attentive, helpful, kind and welcoming staff throughout! The rooms & bathrooms are stylish and clean. The hotel is beautifully designed and situated in a great location just a few minutes walk from beer street, train street, the markets, the lake, and around the corner from a supermarket which is really convenient :) Breakfast was a la carte and split into western and eastern menus. We found the western menu to be a bit underdeveloped in re to quality but we loved the eastern menu.
