Suda Boutique Hotel in Hanoi, Vietnam: a perfect blend of colonial style and modern design I recently stayed at the Suda Boutique Hotel in the center of Hanoi. This boutique hotel, hidden in the ancient street of Hoan Kiem District, added an unforgettable accommodation experience to my trip to Hanoi with its unique design that blends French colonial style with traditional Vietnamese elements. Below is a detailed sharing of my experience in terms of geographical location, service, guest rooms, catering, etc. Location: A great starting point to explore Hanoi culture The hotel is located in the core area of ​​Hanoi's Old Quarter, just a 5-minute walk from Hoan Kiem Lake and St. Joseph's Cathedral, and only a 10-minute walk from popular attractions such as Train Street and 36 Ancient Streets. The hotel has a perfect geographical location. The surrounding area is dotted with authentic food stalls, cafes and handicraft shops, and you can easily go to the weekend night market at night to experience the hustle and bustle of the city. For passengers arriving in Hanoi by international train, the hotel provides a paid shuttle service, which is about 15 minutes' drive from Lao Cai Railway Station, making transportation extremely convenient. Vietnamese hospitality in detail From the moment you step into the hotel, you will be impressed by the professionalism and enthusiasm of the front desk staff. The staff are fluent in English and basic Chinese. They proactively provide hand-drawn maps and recommend hidden attractions in the surrounding area, such as a private route to visit the Confucian Temple to avoid peak tourist hours. It is worth mentioning that the hotel provides a thoughtful service of "free luggage delivery to the next hotel", which is especially suitable for tourists who plan to travel in multiple cities. In addition, details such as free umbrellas to borrow on rainy days and 24-hour lobby refreshments further highlight its meticulous service concept. The collision of colonial style and local culture The "French Terrace Suite" we stayed in this time is dominated by ivory white and dark green colors, paired with teak furniture and hand-embroidered silk pillows, creating a retro and elegant colonial atmosphere. The room is about 35 square meters in size. Although it is not spacious, it has an exquisite layout and is equipped with a separate balcony overlooking the ancient street. The bathroom space adopts a dry and wet separation design, and the supplies are selected from a local Vietnamese vanilla brand. The light lemongrass aroma is relaxing. The only drawback is that the sound insulation is a bit weak. Occasionally, you can hear the noise of motorcycles on the street at night. It is recommended that light sleepers choose rooms on higher floors. Minor shortcomings and suggestions - The hotel does not have its own parking lot. Self-driving travelers need to rely on nearby paid parking lots. Some basic room types do not have windows facing the outside. When booking, it is recommended to give priority to "Terrace Suite" or "Lake View Room". Summary: Ideal place for culture lovers With its unique design aesthetics, excellent location and sincere service, Suda Boutique Hotel is an ideal base for exploring Hanoi's history and culture. Whether it is a short business trip or an in-depth cultural tour, this place can meet your needs. Recommended for travelers who value design and prefer niche experiences, especially for couples or solo travelers.
