Guest Reviews
- jamie (7/5): - A basic place to stay with a bed..air con..a fan
Done the job for a few nights and very close to the centre
- NaRa (10/5): A friendly hub is the center of it all - Had very good sleep here. Atmosphere is friendly, placement superb; price very budget. Great for last minute Vietnam shopping with no transport and cool cafés all around. My curtain (which plays literally a wall in a hostel environment) was very poorly attached, repaired apparently by multiple guests, who had to come up with fixing solutions on the spot, so did I...It was fun) those bugs keep us inventive and clever)
Every inconvenience is a call for creativity. Those deficient tend to demand convenience given to them. Creators rely on their own minds and body capabilities to adjust the environment to suit their needs, standarts and tastes.
- chrech (8/5): - All good
- heng (7/5): -
- GAKUTO (5/5): ハノイの安宿ならこんなもんか - 汚い、特に2階は臭い。
3階のほうが快適で、そちらに予約したつもりだったが、2階になっていた。
- Shanti (7/5): Really good value for money. - The bed was very clean and the towel Rental was efficient and clean. The owner was extremely friendly and spoke great English. There was one cockroach that I saw in the bathroom. It smelled a little bit in the bathroom as it was shared between many people. The other guests were very loud late at night, although this is not the fault of the property owner.
They were treating bedbugs upstairs which for me shows that they actually care about getting rid of them; so if they put more of this effort in I believe it will improve lots.
- Fin (5/5): Great location, comfy bed but busy dorm with limited bathroom. Very hot at night! - Brave was really lovely! It was very VERY hot at night despite a fan and air con. 1 bathroom for 12 beds too, but you can walk out and use a different bathroom on another floor. Amazing location though and managed to book tours for cheaper through hostel too!

- Amrit (8/5): Worth the price in a good location - I actually loved that it's in the right party area..you would have many options to explore cafe, pubs and grab affordable food and drink. The area is beautiful, however this hostel is just little away located on a narrow road. That's perfectly fine. Bed was comfortable and cozy. Staff was extremely sweet and speak English well. She checked on me to know when would I check in and if there is anything she can help me with. Good hospitality. Sweet gesture. One washroom for 14 people. I mean I had to wait 15-20 mins to relieve myself since, someone was using it. Washroom can be well maintained more.. again it depends on the tourists who stays there.

- JUNYA (7/5): -
- Esther (6/5): Pleasant - Staff were lovely and super helpful. Wasn't too noisy at night and the fans on each bed helped keep cool at night. Lockers weren't in a great state of repair. Communal spaces were a bit messy and cluttered, but nothing out of the ordinary for a hostel.
- Georgie (2/5): Very poor -
- Joe (8/5): Lovely peaceful introduction to a relatively chaotic Hanoi and a great spot to access tours afterwards. - Comfortable spaces, quiet but friendly people, great customer service, good shower pressure, air conditioned. Not quite enough toilets to the amount of people but not too annoying itself. I was expecting to be able to receive a SIM card here, but service from the hostel was unavailable. However, the lovely receptionist gave me very quick pointers on where to get a cheap SIM card in the immediate area!
- Uroš (8/5): Very good -
- Giovanna (9/5): Superb - The staff is really helpfull and kind! 100/10 customer service Toilets are old and the sink gets clogged. Mattress was really hard.
- Elena (10/5): Exceptional - We could do our check-in in the middle of the night, the host was super friendly!
- Hélio (10/5): Exceptional - Everthing...
- Kapoor (7/5): Good -
- Zarine (9/5): Superb - Thank you to the host for their commendable hospitality and your kindness will always be cherished.❤️❤️!
- Cassandre (8/5): Very good -
- Amol (9/5): Value for money - Location Na
- Nitin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ivona (8/5): Good Hostel - The staff at the reception were very kind and attentive. The beds were comfortable, there was enough space and there was a little table and lamp. The bathroom and communal space were cleaned regularly while we stayed there.
- Parth (7/5): Good -
- Kubur (8/5): Very good -
- Iaroslav (10/5): Exceptional -
- Linda (7/5): good enough - location was amazing and staff very helpful the bathroom was dirty and the whole hostel was basically one room
- Van (3/5): Poor - No breakfast Like to the office shining in my eyes the while night
- Hasara (8/5): Very good -
- Alden (7/5): Good -
- Jonohal (10/5): Above and Beyond. A* Value - Staff are absolutely exquisite, and the entire hostel, for the price paid goes above and beyond. The place is very small and simple with one 2nd and 3rd floor dormitory with ensuites. Each bed has a built-in table, electrical outlet and a fan. There are two AC units in each and a kettle and a large table for socialising, eating and working. The place is staffed from the morning until 00:00. The location is central and water can be purchased at reception. Additionally should you wish you can move or utilise the facilities of EcoStay 2 which is a 5 minute walk away. Very well managed indeed, and the WiFi is strong. Would recommend 110%.
- Isabelle (3/5): A short encounter with an injured and bleeding rat under my bed; hope the rat survived. - Location is good. No breakfast at the hotel, but s fantastic fish noodle soup at the corner.
Bed is ok, a bit hard. Shane there was a rat under it. It's Hanoi.
Only one shower/toilet for 14 people in the room. A bit limiting.
I had better for cheaper price in Hanoi.
They should reduce their price or invest in renovations. Food around.
Friendly staff.
- Natalia (10/5): Nice and competent staff - Chloe is very nice and lovely. She organised a taxi for me from the airport. Everything worked out quickly. The hostel is central and you have a table in your bed and a locker.
- Cristian (10/5): Thanks Chloe for making our stay so easy! -
- James (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hanis (8/5): Very good -
- Hilal (5/5): Passable -
- Kiet (10/5): Exceptional - The staff is amazing, they’re really friendly and lovely.
- Olate (9/5): Our stay at Hanoi EcoStay couldn’t have been any better. If I plan to come back to Hanoi I will definitely stay at Hanoi - Hai and Maris have been the most helpful and supportive hosts, always available to clear out doubts or help with problems.
The rooms are nice and the bunk beds have plenty room to sleep so confortably.
The location of the hostel is perfect, it’s walking distance everywhere in the Old Quarter. The only problem I see is there are only 2 toilets in the hostel. Maybe having shower and toilet separately could help.
- Kalamoun (7/5): Good -
- Theresa (8/5): Very good -
- Nicholas (10/5): Great hostel for a great value. In the middle of old quarter near all the fun activities and the lake. - Marris Loud Chinese people
- Kelvin0603 (8/5): Great hostel for budget travelers. - I like it staying there. The location is great. The toilet, noisy when used.
- Nicholas (10/5): Lovely hostel -
- Kelvin0603 (9/5): Superb -
- Kim (7/5): Good -
- Kelvin0603 (7/5): Good - The location, the price, and the staff. There was noise coming from the pipes when someone used the toilet.
- Ellithy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hilal (7/5): Good -
- Bogaychuk (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andrea (6/5): Pleasant -
- Badal (9/5): It was my second time there because i felt like home and staff became my friends and i met some nice people there i woul - Its quite in the noisy area in Hanoi which is rare There is only one boiling jar for two floors
- Jo (7/5): Good - Very friendly and helpful stuff, booked the Ha Giang tour online, which I can recommend doing. very central. The room was never quiet, the bathroom was a bit smelly
- Tess (10/5): Exceptional - Super big beds in each bunk
Nice and quiet at night but still insanely central
Let us leave our bags overnight when we went to Cat Ba for free!
- Elijah (9/5): Superb -
- Evika (4/5): The location was great but the hostel was not. Only one bathroom for 12 beds, bed are not comfortable, bathroom is not r -
- Maria (9/5): Superb - Good position
- Vignesh (9/5): Superb - The bed very nice, comfortable and most importantly spacious. There was ample space on the bed for me to sleep and and keep my backpack. They even had a small fan and a table so that you can get some work done. One of the best hostel beds I have ever seen. They didn't have a water dispenser, so you have to pay for a water bottle. There is no elevator so you have to take the stairs, could be a problem if you are traveling with a lot of luggage.
- Swarbrick (10/5): Exceptional - Extremely good value for money in the location in old town. Beds are fine and the shower / bathroom was fine. For 5 dollars a night you get a good hostel. Always remember though to bring some earplugs for other noisy travellers.
- Damir (6/5): Staff and location are the best, that’s all. It’s cheap but honestly I dont recommend - Super friendly staff. Location is perfect. Spacious bed. Cheap One bathroom for 14 people that’s insane, sometimes needed to wait around 30 minutes to use it. Not really clean. During the night time a bit noisy
- Christian (8/5): Very good - The staff was very friendly and the place is cozy. Worth the money.
- Vito (8/5): Very good - The hostel is located in the heart of Hanoi old quarter, the girl at the reception was very helpful and friendly The dormitory have just one toilet for 12 peoples , which makes me sometimes wait over 30 minutes
- Tuan (8/5): Very good -
- Joyanta (7/5): Good - Good location Staff behavior not polite when I arrive there but check out time one girl was there in reception she was too good.
- Alessandra (7/5): Good - They let me in very early in the morning since I was coming from many hours of bus! The guys at the reception are both very nice. Position is very central! Silence hours are not very respected both from people and from the workers! One bathroom for 12 beds is hard to manage
- Luis (4/5): To stay one night and away from the bathroom - It is located in the center I stayed three nights in the third floor bedroom, the bathroom is inside the bedroom and the bathroom door is very loud when you open and close it, I woke up every time they used it, I wrote asking them to check it but they just said I'm sorry and they didn't there was a concern to check
- Wendy (8/5): Worthy for the price paid - We booked this just for stopover for a short rest and place to bath before board bus at night. It meets expectations. Staff were vry friendly! NA
