First off, apologies the the lovely staff at La Beaute for being so late in crafting this review. My wife and I were there in mid-April of this year, and had a lovely stay. While the rooms and breakfast were fine, what really made our stay special was the courtesy, professionalism and positive energy of the staff. While too many to mention, special shout out to Daniel who took us on a street food tour that was one of the best tours my wife and I have ever taken of anything. When one restaurant on the itinerary was unexpectedly closed, he had the signature dish delivered to our room the next morning! Also, my wife wanted to change rooms after our first night to a higher floor, and the front desk staff handled the change gracefully and immediately. The hotel is centrally located in the Old Quarter, and is an easy walk to any number of things you'd want to see, from the Water Puppet Theater to the lake. I'd opt for a room on a higher floor, but frankly, both our rooms were very good. Apologies to the staff whose names I did not write down, but if you are the owner and reading this, give them all a raise!!

Overall our stay at the La Beaute De Hanoi was good, the price was right, the location great and the rooms were clean and adequate. There is food, great shopping and yummy coffee cafes just steps away. My Lee, their "cruse director" set up our airport pickup which was helpful since this was our first stop in Vietnam and dealing with airports transfers can be hectic. Its much more expensive than using Grab but since it was our first stop I was willing to pay more for a smooth transfer. The location of La Beaute is fantastic. While there are no amazing views from the rooms the hotel is located down a quaint side street which offers a bit of peace. It is very close to the center of action and difficult to get cabs directly there so to use Grab or to get on your tour bus you will need to go a few streets over; no issues just an FYI. Our room was on the "outside" of the hotel so we were able to hear the dance music late into the night but it was muted and did not cause any sleep disruptions. Another member of our party had a room on the back side of the hotel and had peace an quiet. Our AC units all worked and while they never got as cool as we would like we all slept just fine. Showers were good and the rooms were clean and neat. Its a franken hotel, meaning the building was once two or three separate buildings that have been combined, but they have done it well and the shared spaces are all attractive and nice to spend time in, like the breakfast area. Breakfast was included with our stay and it was adequate, nothing to write home about but plenty to get you started for the day and everyone loved the fresh fruit and yogurt. The staff was helpful before we arrived and during our stay. I booked most of our activities on my own before we arrived but asked the hotel to book us a one day excursion and they made that process seamless. Of note, like many hotels in Vietnam I was unable to fully pay in advance so upon arrival we either needed to pay with credit and accept the steep service fee or spend the day seeking out multiple ATMs (good luck finding one that works) and pull out gangster levels of cash. We opted for the steep fee credit fee. I would definitely stay here again.

We first stayed for 4 nights and then after Halong cruise return ed for 1 night before moving on For our first stay I had booked a Junior Suite with balcony. This room was ok. But has a very high bath to step in to shower and bath does not feel safe to stand in. Room itself was fine Our second stay I had booked a Deluxe Double Room. This room was massive. No view but the room makes up for it. It has a corner bath. Much lower and safer to use. This bathroom felt newer we actually preferred this room. As for the staff. 10/10. Such a beautiful attentive team, who always great you with a beautiful welcoming smile and are always offering assistance. LOCATION - you will not be sorry. It is down a small alley, but don't be put off. Walking distance to everywhere. Very central to eateries and sites. We would stay again
