Pullman Hanoi

Pros: Fun trip. Good quality hotel. Pickleball court on site (bonus!) as well as all the regular pool/gym/sauna etc. Cons: service staff taking coffee/tea orders at breakfast buffet couldn’t speak English and didn’t know the difference between coffee and tea. Every day for 5 days they got it wrong and I had to ask 2 or 3 times before I got what I wanted. My laundry wasn’t delivered on time, I needed to chase them up for it at 10pm. Then when it arrived half was missing. I followed up 2x more before I actually got all my laundry I ordered food at the pool and they told me couldn’t give to me with paying up front? I asked them to put it to my room, said she would check. Came back 5 mins later and said it was ok. Weird

There’s not much restaurant around the area. Too far from the main cbd( old quarter ). Some of the staff (reception staff ) can’t even understand basic english. Compare to the valet staff, they understand and speak english. Otherwise, the hotel is not bad at all. It’s just the communication is very prostrating.

Good

Terrible location I walked around for ages around dusty streets and trod in dog poo looking for somewhere to eat or get a cold beer. Hotel room is massive and creepy with only two plug sockets that work. Overall it felt like being in a time warp or in North Korea. You need to take a taxi for 15 minutes to get something to eat. Don't bother staying here at all.

This hotel was a good value for that we paid. Even though it’s not in the Old Quarter which is where most action is and where most tours offer pick up and drop off, it is not far from this area. Breakfast was great and a variety of cuisines, the gym was big and open 24/7, and all the staff we interacted with were very professional and helpful.

Room too small and need some repair.
