Hanoi Lotus Boutique Hotel
The location is very good and the staff are lovely and helpful but I am baffled as to why this hotel has such great reviews. There are no facilities. Breakfast, which was truly dreadful at a place down the road- at least 2 minutes walk. We had a balcony room which was nice. But I am still baffled ...
