Guest Reviews
- Kelly (10/5): - The girls at the front desk were amazing. Especially Lee and Jessie. So accommodating. They even extended our check out time to suit our pick up. It was a very comfortable room and excellent location. Quiet lane but very central. Highly recommended! Nothing
- Liliane (9/5): -
- Julia (7/5): Un peu cher pour la qualité - Excellent emplacement Salle de bain sale
Taies d’oreillers tachées
Obligation de payer en cash au check in sous peine de garder votre passeport (ou bien payer en carte avec 3% de frais)
- Jarukorn (7/5): Comfortable stay in the middle of old quarter - Close to everything
- Tiphaine (9/5): Séjour agréable ! - Le personnel accueillant et chaleureux.
Le ménage de la chambre tous les jours.
Les équipements de la chambre notamment la climatisation, le ventilateur, les bouteilles d’eau.
Très bon emplacement. Certaines photos ne correspondent pas exactement à la réalité. L’hôtel reste vraiment très bien, mais il faut s’attendre à une légère différence.
- Shivali (10/5): - Amazing location and beautiful clean property
- Alp (9/5): - Çalışanlar ve konumu fena değil Klima kondisyonu yeterli değildi
- Kevin (10/5): -
- Khaira (10/5): - Staffs Jessie and Link are perfect! I will be back in the future
- SOFIA (9/5): -
- Martin (9/5): Stay in a quiet alley in the middle of the city center - The rooms are very nice and well furnished often also offering a balcony. The beds are very comfortable. The hotel is located in the middle of a great neighborhood, which is not too loud and hosts a market in the mornings. The staff is very friendly and granted us an upgrade because the better room was still available.
- Charlotte (10/5): Super séjour - Le personnel était très accueillant, notre chambre était lumineuse et équipée d’un ventilateur et d’une climatisation. L’hôtel située dans petite ruelle calme du vieux quartier est idéal pour visiter.
- Rex (10/5): Welcoming stay in the heart of Hanoi old quarter - Clean and comfortable in a great location. Staff were very friendly and accommodating, they even gave us a free upgrade and kept our bags whilst we took a day trip!
- Rex (10/5): -
- Mary Jozebelle (10/5): Will recommend to others. Thank you! - The location is perfect, you'll never run out of stores to buy from or places to eat from. Everything is walkable.
The room is spaceous enough. And while there are other negative reviews about the aircon, our room was very cold with 2 air conditioners and a ceiling fan. Staff were very accommodating too.
- Lena (8/5): - Sehr gute Lage. Ich war zuerst mit meinem Raum nicht zufrieden, weil ich versehentlich ohne Balkon gebucht hab. Dann habe ich kostenlos einen besseren Raum bekommen, sehr freundliches Personal. Rezeption hat immer offen. Wäsche Service vorhanden und Wäsche kam sauber zurück. Leider sind die Räume im ersten Stock nah an der Straße deshalb sehr laut. Ein Raum im oberen Stockwerk ist super.
- Max (1/5): Slechtste ervaring ooit in een hotel (zelfs achteraf nog) - - Dit is zonder twijfel de slechtste ervaring die ik ooit met een hotel heb gehad. Wat een leuk begin van onze vakantie in Hanoi had moeten zijn, veranderde in urenlange stress, frustratie en onzekerheid. Zelfs na de reis ben ik hier nog steeds veel tijd aan kwijt door alle communicatie, het achter geld aan moeten gaan en een chargebackprocedure. Deze situatie heeft onze vakantie serieus verpest.
Wij checkten op 24 april 2026 met vijf personen in bij Ancient Lane Hotel in Hanoi. Bij aankomst zagen wij direct dat de kamers totaal niet overeenkwamen met de foto’s op Booking.com. De kamers waren vies, slecht onderhouden en meerdere zaken waren defect. Daarom hebben wij direct foto’s gemaakt en zijn wij naar de receptie gegaan om aan te geven dat wij hier niet wilden verblijven.
De receptioniste nam contact op met leidinggevenden, waarna ruim drie uur aan discussies en telefoongesprekken volgden zonder duidelijke oplossing. In plaats van begrip te tonen, kregen wij vooral te horen dat het hotel geld zou mislopen doordat wij wilden vertrekken. Wij hebben meerdere keren uitgelegd dat de accommodatie simpelweg niet voldeed aan wat geboekt en betaald was.
Later kwam een vrouw ons helpen die zei niet van het hotel zelf te zijn. Tijdens dit gesprek werden ook ongepaste opmerkingen gemaakt, waaronder dat wij als blanke toeristen “genoeg geld hadden” en daarom niet moeilijk moesten doen over geld.
Uiteindelijk is een document opgesteld en ondertekend waarin stond dat wij ons volledige geld terug zouden krijgen. Tot op vandaag hebben wij echter nog steeds niets ontvangen. Via WhatsApp krijgen wij alleen excuses over feestdagen, weekenden of dat ze “er later naar gaan kijken”.
Ook Booking.com heeft geprobeerd contact op te nemen met het hotel, maar kreeg geen reactie.
Ik raad dit hotel absoluut af, niet alleen vanwege de staat van de kamers, maar vooral vanwege de manier waarop er met gasten wordt omgegaan wanneer problemen ontstaan.

- Aishyta (10/5): -
- Aleš (6/5): Could be better - Location is great. Room was not clean enough. Safe was not ready to use, we had to ask for a key to use safe. The safe was not firmly attached to a wall or anything so it would be possible to carry it away. TV was not working at all. We did not try to turn on the celling fan because was covered in dust.
- CHRISSIE JOY (9/5): - Very comfortable and conveniently located near all tourist attractions. Perfect location! Very comfortable and close to all tourist destinations. Value for money, and the staff are very accommodating and friendly, The service was excellent, and the staff were always ready to assist us.
- Ozana (9/5): Everything was okay expect fungus in the bathroom and cleaning ladies talking loudly at 6am in front of my room - Location, comfortable bed, balcony is nice, staff were okay Fungus in the bathroom and cleaning ladies in 6am talking loudly in front of my room
- Anne Catherine (6/5): Ok - Bien placé pour une nuit, on avait pris l'option la moins chère parce qu'on y passait juste quelques heures. La chambre au rez-de-chaussée est proche de la récepetion et du lobby, ça résonne quand des gens parlent ou rigolent.
- Nursharlene (10/5): - Staffs were very accommodating. I had a free upgrade from the hotel and very grateful for it. The room I got was a bit cramped but a got worth for money since I was just staying for one night. Also very near to city centre and shopping areas. Very easy to get grab from there. Have to walk a bit into the buildings to reach the hotel.

- Mia (10/5): ממליצה! - התמורה לגמרי שווה את המחיר אבל מבחינתנו השיא היה הבנות
בצוות של המקום. בנות מקסימות, שירותיות, עזרו לנו בכל מה שביקשנו ושאלנו, באמת שהן הפכו את השהות שלנו למעולה.
- Matt (8/5): -
- Ninon (8/5): top rien à redire - propreté, emplacement, personnel le bruit extérieur

- Andrew Yikang (10/5): -
- yavuzhan (7/5): - Amazing Location, we were able yo walk e eryehere in 10-15 minutes. Good staff. Staff was very helpful. They helped with laundry and planning Lan Ha Bay trip ehich was amazing. There was no air-conditioning in the lobby or proper airconditioning in the room. The interior of the room was slightly old. The shower didn't have a door or curtain and was wetting the toilet which was inconvenient. The room was smaller than it appeared in the picturea.

- yelanshan (10/5): - 酒店很棒。第一次来越南,酒店很舒适干净,位置好,在老城内去各个地方都非常方便,工作人员非常热情,给了我很多帮助,房间每天都会认真清理,我还会再回到这里。
- HA (4/5): Cần cải thiện về cách thanh toán và hiểu rõ luật thanh toán trước khi làm phiền khách hàng - Gần phố cổ, dễ dàng đi bộ ra hồ gươm để tham quan và ăn uống Nhân viên yêu cầu tôi thanh toán tiền phòng trước qua dien thoai với lý do check in trễ (sau 4pm của ngày 19/4) mặc dù tôi đã ghi rõ trong booking thời gian nhận phòng. Bạn còn yêu cầu tôi đọc số thẻ tín dụng và mã CVV. Tôi phải liên lạc với số hot line của booking.com để nhờ họ can thiệp. Cuối cùng thì cũng xử lý xong nhưng mất thời gian và trải nghiệm của tôi cực kỳ tệ
- chems din (10/5): - Está en la zona antigua bien situado
- Vanessa (6/5): Gute Lage in Hanoi - Gute Lage in ruhiger Gasse
Sehr freundliches Personal Unser Zimmer war in die Jahre gekommen: Wasserhahn war kaputt etc..
- Piotr (7/5): - Dobra lokalizacja, miła obsługa Ilość miejsca, dodatkowe pojedyncze łóżko w pokoju które w mojej ocenie powinno zniknąć gdyż utrudnia poruszanie się, więcej nie znaczy lepiej.
- Samuel (10/5): Ideal for me in a great location in Hanoi - Great location and helpful staff Everything was perfect
- Richard (7/5): Nice enough for over night -

- Konrad (10/5): - Spacious rooms with window and balcony - what is not a rule in Hanoi. 24h reception with helpful and english speaking employees. Building has a lift. Speaking shortly - everything what traveller needs. You will not find better at this price in this location. All good
- Konrad (10/5): -
- Christina (8/5): Would definitely book again! Thank you for everything! - When in Hanoi I stay at the ancient lane, maybe not the newest and most spacious rooms but I love the area/location in the small cozy road and the personal is very friendly and helpful in every situation. Bathrooms could be cleaner and the wifi does not work on the 8th floor but we enjoyed our stay nevertheless!

- Maria Victoria (6/5): - Ubicación Limpieza y no espacio para las maletas.

- Jean yves (8/5): - Emplacement, dans le vieux Hanoï, mais hotel très bruyant Bruyant, parties communes moyennement propres, climatisation impossible à régler...
- Alexandre (6/5): Bien placé mais bruyant . - L’emplacement était parfait et le personnel sympathique. Les chambres sont mal insonorisé donc très bruyante à partir de 7h du matin.
Le ménage n’a pas été fait pendant les 3 jours que nous y avons passé.
- Kevin (9/5): Super hôtel qui allie le confort, l’accueil, l’emplacement et le prix - Emplacement idéal, accueil chaleureux, équipements dans la chambre et propreté de la chambre et de la salle de bain. Chambre un sombre et deux lits simples collés à la place d’un lit double.
- Nimansala Prabhani Karunarathna (5/5): Not up to expectations - Nothing much. Facilities were okay. Room was very tiny. Room was very congested.
- Tereza (1/5): -
- Matilde (6/5): Overall it was fine😁 - Nice location and the staff was very kind! I don't think the room was clean... there were little bugs on the floor. Another thing to keep in mind is that it's quite noisy, I don't really know what it was but it was noisy.
- Ignacio (10/5): -
- Melissa (8/5): Wish they did t give our room away because we were late. Had to stay at another hotel!😳☹️ - Good location Lots of rules for towel use
- Ruby (10/5): - Generally good all round, no complaints
- Yolanda (9/5): - El check in no era hasta las 2pm pero habíamos cogido el alojamiento para poder darnos una ducha y descansar un poco antes de coger nuestro vuelo. Así que hicieron la limpieza lo antes posible para que pudiésemos entrar! Son maravillosas!
El hotel es sencillo pero con buenas prestaciones y está bien ubicado
- Haywood (10/5): -
- wassana (10/5): - Good location, fair price and staff is so nice
- Chetanya (8/5): - Great location, friendly and helpful staff Too small a room. Though given the price, probably manageable.
Also there are ants. And we asked them to book a bus for us and felt like they charged way too high for a subpar bus because I booked the return myself and it cost me less even with a superior bus
- Maria Constanza (10/5): -
- Arpit (7/5): - Location
- Charlotte (7/5): Rustige prima plek in centrum van Hanoi - De lokatie is heel fijn, midden in het centrum in een rustige straat. Kamer is niet groot maar voldoet. Prima bedden en badkamer met alles wat je nodig hebt. Het personeel is vriendelijk. We hebben alleen contact gehad als we zelf een vraag hadden. Er is altijd iemand aanwezig.
- Vrushal (10/5): -
- stephen (8/5): We had the room between flights. Just a relax and maybe a film on tv but couldn;t get anything from - comfy bed Television didn,t work.
- Vrushal (10/5): Perfect Stay for family and friends - Property is amazing and it is located in the center of the Old Quarter. Local shopping markets are at walkable distance. Staff were good.
