The Oriental Jade Hotel

The Oriental Jade Hotel is at 92-94 Hang Trong Street in Hoan Kiem District, one street back from the western shore of Hoan Kiem Lake. The address places guests near St Joseph's Cathedral, the Water Puppet Theatre and the lake promenade, all within an easy walk, and the Old Quarter starts just to the north. The hotel is a four-star boutique property with a modern style and a strong focus on its rooftop, where an infinity pool and a sky bar look across the Old Quarter roofline towards Hoan Kiem Lake. Room types include Deluxe, Premium Balcony and Junior Suite rooms and the Jade Suite, with rates from about 1,800,000 to 3,900,000 VND per night. Other facilities include a spa, a fitness centre and a restaurant that serves breakfast and meals, and the hotel also provides a concierge desk, laundry service and airport transfer. Service is known for being personal and helpful, which suits couples, friends and travellers making a first visit to Hanoi, Vietnam, who want help planning their days. The sky bar is popular in the evening for cocktails as the city lights come on, and the pool offers a place to relax after walking in the heat. Because Hang Trong is a busy street lined with shops and cafes, guests should expect some noise at street level, while upper-floor rooms are calmer. The central address means that many of the city's main sights are reachable without a taxi, although the summer heat may make a short ride more appealing for longer trips.
