Hanoi accomodation in Hanoi/Halong bay trips
Posted: Sun April 19, 2009 06:51 PM UTC
Hi

we are visiting Hanoi for the first time and are very excited about a trip around Halong bay.

Could anyone please let us know of any reputable tour companies from personal experience and advise of good budget places to stay in Hanoi.
Thanks

I can help with budget hotels in Hanoi - I'm talking US$20. - 30.

The Especen Hotel on Tho Xuong Street was wonderful - $25. for a large family room w/balcony - near the Catholic Cathedral.

The Gia Thinh Hotel on Hang Bac Street at Ma May Street was also very nice (in-room computer and lift) for $30. Superior Room. Both hotels very well located.

We used, and were very happy with, Tonkin Travel to arrange our Halong Bay cruise on the Bhaya. They got a good price for us (better than booking with the Bhaya directly) and provided excellent transportation to and from Halong Bay.

We stayed at the beautiful Dragon Hotel (http://www.dragonhotelvn.com/).

Tons of promotion going on, have a look all over and choose the best one for your trip! For ex Gia Bao hotel, Orchid Hotel, Cinnamon Hotel..etc...
Many junks in Halong also having big promotion in the summer like Indochina Sails, Bhaya, Ginger/Jasmine, Emeraude.
Good trip!

For Hanoi you could try Cinnamon Hotel (stay 3nights pay 2 )
or Church hotel.Both are a few steps away to the lake with spacious room
and trendy decor. In Halong bay there are option to do either overnight boat cruise or stay at the hotel.
You can do 2day 1night staying out on junk boat or spending a whole day boat trip then cruising onto Catba Island for the night.
If you have 3days, a visit to Quanlan island where
the crowd is not insight would be worth your effort.
