Old Quarter View Hanoi Hostel

The 6 Best Hostels in Hanoi (Updated 2025)

"Located in the heart of the Old Quarter, this place feels more upscale and hotel-like while still being social — its colorful, chic design and floor-to-ceiling windows (some rooms with small balconies) give lots of natural light. Dorm beds are comfortable with thick mattresses, privacy curtains, lockers, reading lights, and top bunks with stairs instead of ladders, and the hostel has AC. They encourage guests to hang out at the daily free happy hour (with free beer), join free walking tours, or take a very cheap weekly cooking class, and the breakfast is great and affordable (about 50,000 VND). Overall it’s a clean, spacious option within walking distance of the main sights." - Matthew Kepnes
