Hanoi Daewoo Hotel

Hanoi Daewoo Hotel is a large five-star hotel and serviced apartment complex at 360 Kim Mã in Ba Đình district, close to the Lotte Center. The area is in western central Hanoi, about 5 to 6 km from the Old Quarter, and is home to embassies, offices and Korean-oriented shops and restaurants. Noi Bai International Airport is roughly 40 minutes away by car. The complex was one of the first international-standard developments in this part of the city and is now a familiar landmark, with a sprawling layout that includes the hotel tower, serviced apartments and landscaped grounds. Room categories include Deluxe Rooms, Executive Rooms and Executive Suites, with rates from about 2,200,000 to 5,000,000 VND per night. Dining spans several restaurants and a bar, with a mix of Korean, Vietnamese and international dishes, and breakfast is a sizeable buffet. Facilities include an outdoor pool, a spa, a fitness centre and a tennis court, which gives the complex more recreational space than most central hotels, and a shuttle service connects guests with parts of the city. Service is business-oriented and geared towards long stays, with serviced apartments popular with expatriates and corporate travellers on extended assignments. The hotel suits business guests, families who want space and facilities, and travellers who prefer a large complex with everything on site. Tourists mainly interested in sightseeing in the Old Quarter should plan for taxi or ride-hailing trips, which are inexpensive. The neighbouring Lotte Center offers shopping and an observation deck, and the surrounding streets have many restaurants serving Korean food.
