The staff here are just amazing! Smiley, friendly and always laughing and sharing a joke. This made our stay an absolute pleasure. The hotel runs a good voucher deal where by you get a free drink at their sister restaurant just a little further along the street. The rooms are spacious, clean and very comfortable. The hotel is in a... More

Why not is a very nice and clean hotel! The rooms are cheap and there are choices of different rooms, all included airco. Friendly staff. At the end of the street is the Why not restaurant where you get discount and free welcome beers if you stay in this hotel,

We ate a couple of times in the attached restaurant which serves the freshest baguettes in Vietnam and we had some fantastic Vietnamese food there too... We had a great... More

Do not buy any tour packages from this hotel! They will scam you! Especially don't buy any packages for Ha Long Bay! They'll get you to pay one price but book you for a much cheaper, nightmare of a tour. The tour agents in Hanoi and Ha Long will tell you you've got to go back to Hue to get... More
