Why we recommend Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi
"This is a beautiful old colonial-style property that has an exemplary reputation; celebrated authors, actors, ambassadors and heads of state have all stayed here. It’s very well located within walking distance of the Opera House, Hoan Kiem Lake and the busy streets of the old town, and the facilities are second to none. Don't miss the garden balcony, Le Balcon, which forms a welcome green oasis from the hustle and bustle."
