HOTEL du LAC SIGNATURE

HOTEL du LAC SIGNATURE

10/10 Excellent
"Stayed at the hotel for 4 nights. Want to start by saying all of the hotel staff were super friendly and were there to answer any questions which we had (very knowledgeable!). Room was very clean and spacious and the breakfast options were by far the best we had during our stay in Vietnam. They had a set buffet breakfast which changed daily but also a menu which you can order hot items from which was nice. The swimming pool was nice and clean with a shower in the room. The hotel was also perfectly situated - you are a short walk away into the main old quarter with lots of restaurants nearby. Would definitely stay here again!"
