Lap Thach Vacations from $599

Great stay, walkable to lake and old town.

We stayed four nights. Very friendly staffs. Healthy breakfasts, included in the cost of the room. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY FOR THE WIFI AND SIM that are referred by the hotel manager/staff. We paid 800K VND for a WIFI device and 300K VND for a phone sim. The 300K VND seemed to work, but the 800K VND WIFI device was useless. We even exchanged to try the second one, but it was still useless. Sim and WIFI for 30 days are lot cheaper everywhere.

Everything at this hotel was great up until I noticed $100 was missing from my safe. I messaged receptionist regarding the missing money and within 10 minutes, denial, denial, denial with out even having time to question team members and anyone who has access to master keys to safes and rooms. I was letting it slide and already considered it as a hefty $100 tip for the person who took it. I didn’t care but simply wanted to bring it to attention that there were thieves working at the hotel. Receptionist made it WORSE by wanting to get the police involved after I had told them I was already letting it go. They continued to deny and wanted to get the police involved. The theft occurred overnight while I was on my overnight Ha Long Bay cruise that the hotel had set up themselves. Upon returning to property, I had less than 20 hours left in Hanoi and just wanted to enjoy my final night. However, they continued to harass me via WhatsApp and continued to deny and urged me to file a report with local police. I told them there is no proof of the theft so it was a waste of time to get police involved and continued to insist. It was already bad that someone stole $100 but they made it 100x worst with the constant harassment all night when all I wanted to do was enjoy my final night in Hanoi. Lesson learned: DO NOT LEAVE CASH IN SAFE

The staff were very attentive and friendly particularily Mr Harry and Kimmie. The location was great and easy access to main attractions

Room was fantast. Ship was fantastic, food great. Above all the attentiveness of the staff stood out especially pur butler Tommy and guide Summer, both went above and beyond to make our trip so enjoyable.
