Please note that I have, to date, written only two hotel reviews, these are both for Elegance hotels (a small boutique group of hotels in Vietnam). They have several in Hanoi, and if these are anything to go by this is the best hotel group I have had the pleasure of staying at anywhere in the world. I am not... More

Really impressed in all areas of this hotel. Prompt email replies to my questions, friendly, polite staff who can't do enough for you, extremely comfortable bed and top quality bedding and bathroom toiletries. Excellent selection at breakfast. The rooftop bar up on the 12th flor is nice for sunset drinks and socializing with other travelers. Well located close to the... More

Anyone can build a hotel and furnish it nicely, equip it with anything you might possibly need to make your stay more pleasant. Some can have a fantastic location close to the action, and some great restaurants. But nobody I have ever come across in any hotel of any class anywhere in the world has people like those at the...

We got a spacious room with a nice... More

We... More

In terms of value, this is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. Great location, cheap, spotlessly clean, elegant rooms, great breakfast and very accommodating staff. The receptionist was particularly fantastic. thank you.

Second visit to Hanoi but our first to Elegance Diamond Hotel. This hotel is not only in an excellent location but has the most superior appointed rooms & even has the benefit of not only free wifi but a lap top to use in your room. The staff are exceptional friendly without being overboard & cater to your every whim.... More

the room was very comfortable, if just a bit small with a well fitted - out bathroom....large bed with a 5 out of 5 rating on my pillow comfy scale. The air-con was quiet and was smartly situated so it did'nt blow directly on the bed....free internet thru lap top in your room. Buffet breaky was terrific, great view of... More
