Old Quarter

Hanoi's Old Quarter buzzes with centuries of stories along its 36 streets of trades. Watch artisans hammer silver and carve wood in ancient tube houses while motorbikes zip past colonial buildings. Wander to tranquil Hoan Kiem Lake where locals practice tai chi or explore incense-filled temples that offer peaceful retreats from the energetic streets. From plastic stools serving affordable pho to boutique hotels in restored French buildings, the quarter offers authentic experiences at every turn. Most attractions sit within walking distance, though cyclos provide a traditional ride when your feet need rest. Morning visits avoid crowds and offer the gentlest introduction to this captivating area.

4 tips for savvy savings when booking a hotel in Hanoi

  1. Book for the cheapest times: The most affordable time to visit Hanoi is in May, June, and September, when hotel prices are typically lower. If you're looking to explore the city's key landmarks, cultural sites, and historical attractions, a stay of at least 2 to 3 days is recommended. During this budget-friendly trip, you can enjoy activities like visiting the iconic Hoan Kiem Lake, taking guided tours of renowned museums, indulging in local cuisine at charming cafes, and discovering vibrant shopping areas. This itinerary offers great value for money while immersing you in the rich culture and history of Hanoi.
  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals for hotels in Hanoi, start by checking the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute DealsOpens in a new window sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted rates as your travel date approaches. You could also enable email alerts or push notifications to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, helping you seize opportunities for savings. Additionally, the Smart ShoppingOpens in a new window tool available in the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, ensuring you find the best hotel deal. With these features, you're more likely to be the first to know about price drops or room availability for your spontaneous getaway.
  3. Be flexible with dates: Prices can fluctuate based on factors such as the hotel's location, star rating, and the time of year, so being flexible with your travel dates might help you save on your stay at a hotel in Hanoi. For those seeking distinctive accommodations, boutique hotels can provide a more personalised experience and may offer better value. When you book with Hotels.com, we’ll inform you whether the price for your chosen dates is above or below the average. If the price is on the higher side, we’ll recommend more affordable dates, which may help you secure a better deal.
  4. Consider your location: Hotels located near the city centre usually tend to be pricier, but thanks to Hanoi's outstanding public transit system, you might discover a more affordable independent hotel a bit further out that’s still well connected. For those interested in exploring alternative, less crowded neighbourhoods or even some lesser-known nearby cities, there is often excellent value for money to be found. Opting for these alternative destinations could provide a more authentic and budget-friendly experience.
