Lotte Hotel Hanoi
The right call if you want quiet and space. But Hanoi's sightseeing centre — Hoan Kiem Lake — is more than 4km away, so a walking-first Old Quarter trip means a taxi every time.

Location & getting around
The hotel is on Lieu Giai Street in Ba Dinh — the newer district of government buildings and embassies, not the Old Quarter.
The surrounding distances make the trade-off clear. The Vietnam Museum of Ethnology is 1.6km away, West Lake 2.8km, Tran Quoc Pagoda 3.1km — the Ba Dinh sights are close. But Hoan Kiem Lake, the centre of Hanoi sightseeing, is 4.2km, which is not a walk.
So daily trips into the Old Quarter mean a taxi each time. Flip it around, though, and that distance is exactly what buys you quiet and space.
Noi Bai International Airport is 20.9km straight-line away, about a 29-minute drive. Hanoi’s airport is further out than Da Nang’s or Nha Trang’s, so the transfer is a real part of your day. For a late arrival, arrange a pickup in advance.
Hanoi railway station is 3.1km away, a medical practice 610m, and the night market 3.9km.
Rooms & occupancy
At 65 floors, the view changes a lot with height. If that matters to you, confirm the floor terms when booking.
The lineup runs from deluxe king and twin through junior suites (king and twin), club junior suite king, deluxe suite and premier suite. The suite tiers are granular enough to match party size and budget without overshooting.
Guest reviews show couples, families with young children, business travelers, groups, solo travelers and families with teenagers — a broad mix.

Facilities
There is a pool, spa, fitness centre, kids zone, restaurants, a bar/lounge, meeting rooms and banquet halls, plus a hot tub.
The meeting and banquet facilities suggest a lot of business and event traffic. For a leisure traveler that can mean a busy lobby at times.
The kids zone is useful with children, but confirm age limits and hours when you book — these change frequently.

Best for
- Travelers who want to escape Old Quarter noise
- Families who need larger rooms or suites
- Business trips needing meeting and banquet facilities
Not ideal if
- Walking the Old Quarter is the point of your trip
- You want Old Quarter atmosphere late into the night
Compared & alternatives
If walking the Old Quarter is your plan, stay around Hoan Kiem Lake instead — 140–630m from the water, at the cost of a 42–44 minute airport run rather than the 29 minutes you get here.
For a different kind of Vietnamese city trip, see Hotel Nikko Saigon in Ho Chi Minh City. Hanoi and Saigon move differently even though both are city trips.
Whether 4.2km to Hoan Kiem is acceptable is settled by the shape of your trip rather than by anything in the hotel’s specification. Hanoi’s stay areas is the step before this page, and once it is answered only a handful of candidates remain.
Bottom line
If you would take “quiet and spacious” over “walk to the Old Quarter,” this fits well. The 65-floor tower also makes the view a real choice rather than a lottery.
Before booking, check three things: floor terms, what separates the suite tiers, and the kids zone conditions. Rates vary by date and occupancy, so confirm the actual terms on the booking screen.
