We stayed twice at Hotel De Rond - before & after our Ha Long Bay cruise - & stayed in both a king balcony room & a deluxe queen room, both of which were excellent. The balcony room does get more noise from the street, so ear plugs can be useful, but it’s a spacious room & great to feel closer to the action. The hotel location was perfect, it’s an easy walk to the Old Quarter & to Hoan Kiem lake, but removed enough to avoid the tourist masses. There was a good daily selection for breakfast to energize for a day of exploring beautiful Hanoi. The hotel staff were also super friendly and helpful, both in-person and over WhatsApp- thanks for making our stay so enjoyable!

Nothing

Good rooms and bathrooms. Staff ok and breakfast ok

situated a bit on the outskirt of the lively part of the old district so if you like to stay close to this then this is not the hotel. As with other hotels in Vietnam their window quality sucks ( 1 layer ) so expect quite some street noise if you have a room towards the street. Further a huge building site is across from the hotel, they work 24/7, so expect noise from this also until 2025 (if my guess)

Location was ok - a little far from the old town Bed was amazingly comfortable and staff were super friendly! Cleanliness could be improved as I noticed dirt on the floor and hairs on the towels. Also the slippers were not super clean and seemed used. Finally, even though I put a Do Not Disturb sign on, the housekeeping opened the door in the morning when we were asleep. All in all definitely value for money but some improvements could be made

The location was central. Points of interests were within walking distance. It was safe, quiet and a bit fancy as it is located in the French Quarter part of town. Breakfast was good and they serve variety of food applicable to vegetarians, too! There was a convenient store at the corner where we bought water and some snacks before coming back to the hotel. There were also 2 cute cafes along the same street. French Opera House is about 8-10 minute leisure walk, Hoan Kiem Lake about the same distance, but opposite way. Newly opened Uniqlo by the Lake about 10 minutes, high end shops like Richard Mille, Bottega, Christian Dior, Loius Vuitton, Prada all housed in the same location, about 8 minutes walk. St. Joseph Cathedral about 10-12 minutes leisure walk. Overall, very satisfied with our stay here! WiFi worked perfectly during our stay as well! Ms. Chip, the front desk concierge, explained the location well. She provided some tips on where to go, what to do and where to eat. The other staff members always greet us with a smile, always ready to help and we truly appreciated that.

Nothing. All great experience from Hotel De Rond! It was a lovely stay and my mom enjoyed it!

Nice hotel, lovely staff and clean rooms and bathrooms. Room was small but as per desciption.

the second morning we tried to have breakfast but there were actually no tables or chairs available. Since we were leaving early to go on a tour we could not wait around for something to become available, so we took some small plates to our room to eat but could not get eggs because we did not get a seat to be able to order. Tried to find some chairs and table outside but the staff only said its raining and not to go outside. There should really be enough room for everyone whos staying in the hotel to eat - it was really disappointing.

Gets the job done. Nothing too special, a very standard hotel room. The hotel does have day tours and can help organize outings to Halong Bay, Ninh Binh etc. The breakfast options were pretty good, with pho, fresh fruit and other breakfast items.

My friends who had a room facing the main street said it was loud and was hard to sleep. Our room that was facing the alley was ok. We could still hear sounds from outside, but it wasn't unbearable. The location was decent, but about a 10-15 minute walk from most places we wanted to go. If I wanted to be right in the center of things, I would probably live about 10-15 minute North of here.

Hotel de Rond is a relatively new boutique hotel that is situated close to Opera House and walking distance to the Old Quarter. The hotel staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable. Special shoutout to Ms Daisy, Ms Nia and Ms Chip for going above and beyond, e.g. going to the market to buy the beautiful flowers that are in season for us, giving us incredible recommendations on massages and restaurants. The hotel was truly value for money. The room was comfortable and new, albeit a bit small. The airconditioning worked well, as did the showers (and hot water). There was a good spread at breakfast with both a buffet and ala-carte items like eggs and pho.

Given that we went to the Old Quarter every day, it would have been nice to have been a little bit closer. The walk is about 20 minutes. But considering all factors, would still highly recommend this hotel.

Great little hotel, with simple but tasty breakfast and very comfy beds. The staff were so lovely and helpful, particularly Ms Chip

One minor thing is that the fire alarm flashes light regularly at night which is a little annoying. Good to know it’s working but if you were a super light sensitive sleeper it could be an issue. Note that the spa services are not on site (but they will arrange free transport)

Book room for last minute because the first option was not good, and I am so happy with this option, It is not in the centre of old town but only take 7-10 minutes to go to centre, far from noisy of old town, Hotel staff super friendly and helpful, room was clean, not too big but good for value, The breakfast so good with lot of choice, I love the fruit so much, special you must try beef “pho”, made by order (free) Will stay again when come back Hanoi

Non

Completely renovated intimate property on a quiet street in the old quarter. Surrounded by landmarks, restaurants and cafes. Because of the intimacy of the property, the staff got to know us right away and extended more personalized attention than one could expect from a larger property. Quang and Nia, provided excellent concierge services. They arranged a tour of Ha Long Bay that was upscale and a great value. Especially compared to some of the garbage scows other tourists were stuck on. The breakfast buffet included a variety of fresh fruit, juices, salads, cereals, breakfast meats, noodles, fried rice, breads, coffee and tea. Also includes eggs cooked to order or Pho. Stayed in a jr. king suite which was very spacious and had a mini bar and large terrace to kick back and watch the world go by.

It was all good.
