Hanoi Elpis Hotel

Lovely family run hotel in a great area. We made the mistake of booking the cheapest room through Expedia. It was tiny with no window for daylight and our “private” bathroom/ toilet was in the hallway outside of our room. Totally our fault but a terrible room. We did see in to the other rooms and they had daylight and looked very good.

The owner was very friendly. It reminded of Midwest hospitality and the rooms were basic but clean! I really appreciated how the owner was always asking if anything was needed etc. Felt very welcoming and the location was especially for tours.

Was noisy at night but as it’s close to the action that should be expected.

Great spot for exploring Old Quarter. Nice rooms and helpful front desk staff. Be sure to try the small 'mom pop' restaurants in the area, there are some gems!

Location was great in the old quarter, the manager was very helpful for any questions and services, bed was comfortable, spacious room and good bathroom.

Such a wonderful stay in Hanoi. Our host was so kind and helpful. We felt right at home. This was a great hotel. Highly recommend.

Very convenient. Close to bus stations, however, street not big enough to allow car/taxi for pickup. Plenty of dining options and not too crowd. Hotel also has SIM cards for sale and many tours to select from. Will book again next time visiting Ha Noi.

Perfect location and the host was amazing.

Couldn't find the adress listed. As I am disabled, I couldn't risk the hotel not being at the address provided. So, I booked another hotel. With the help of a local, I found where the Elpis is located. Through Hotels.com, I reached out to the Elpis telling them I would check in for my 2nd paid night, but they never replied. t is December 4th, and I still haven't heard back.

I love it so many times I’ve been thinking about you doing it

Very friendly! Lots of food options 24/7.

I have stated there for 6 days. The hotel is located in the Old Quarter, with plenty of shops and restauranrs around. Will stay there again.

GREAT LOCATIOM

The location of this no frill hotel is ideal. As soon as you step out oft he hotel, there are food vendors and bars and coffee shops everywhere. I didn't read the details before I booked and didn't know the toilets were shared outide common area and no elevators. Good thing I only had my backpack and no other luggage. It was better than I expected since there were only two rooms per floor. I only used the bathroom for shower, etc twice per day. Most of the time you are out and about doing things around the city or excursions, therefore, it was not a big deal. The price was fabulous for 4 nights stay. The host was very nice and arranged for a hotel transfer to airpofor me on time. I had a great time in Hanoi and would choose this place again convenient location traveling solo or as a couple. I would choose a different place if you are traveling with family.

Fantastic hotel just what was needed after a long traveling day, comfy beds and central to everything.

This place would be great if it was just me myself. I stayed with my wife 1 yr old and my mother in law. The room was in the middle of the busy part of the city walking distance to everything. The van was not able to drop me off in front of the hotel because it was a small alley street. So I had to drag bags about half a block to the hotel and there is no elevator. The price was amazing and I would recommend this place for smaller groups and couples with light luggage.

I told the hotel manager in passing it was my wifes birthday. When we came back to our room in the evening thete was a beautful birthday cake in our room. Wow!! Very nice comfortable rooms. Excellent place.

Best night's sleep I've had whilst travelling, staff so friendly, very good price and location too. Room was clean and a good size with a balcony.

This is a gem when you are looking for a comfy bed, quiet area to have a good sleep at night. The reception area is not as glamorous as the other hotels around but, Hoa the owner, welcomed me with her friendly demeanour, assisted me with my luggage up on the second floor. If you can manage without lift then this is an excellent place to stay. It's located on a one way alley and quieter part of Old Quarter. Food stalls 10 steps away from this place are so yummy and walk a bit further and you're in the action. The lake is easy walk as well, very well located. The balcony is enjoyable to have some tea and play board games or just watch the alley below you with all this fascinating life actions all day and night. The one and only lady that cleans this hotel, is doing an excellent job - spotless in every corner of the room. Fresh white towels(old and new both smells great and absorbent) and comfy white cotton bedsheets. Very good size room, stayed in 2 Queen beds. Hot shower, aircon both reliable. Did not use the TV as wifi for Netflix on an ipad is good enough. Thank you Hoa for having a lovely comfortable place, we had a great time. Highly recommended.

Great hostess who made you feel welcome and gave great local advice. Excellent location. No lift in property so you need to be happy to climb the stairs but no problem.
