Hanoi Carina Hotel

The location is good, but for the price you pay, you shouldn’t expect very high quality.

Good but no elevator

When I arrived, I was told that there was no room for the first night. I was advised to stay at another hotel diagonally in front and move here the next day. The first hotel had no place to work, so I set my PC on a small stand meant for storage and worked while sitting on the bed. The next day, I moved to Carina Hotel. I was taken to room 500, but it was actually on the 6th floor. During my stay, I went up and down the stairs to the 6th floor many times. It was good for my health. It seems they added one floor to the original building that had five floors. The room and facilities are still new. However, due to heavy rain on September 30, water leaked into the hallway and flowed into the room. A lady came and soaked up the water with a bath towel. The bed here is quite high, so I couldn't sit on the bed to work on my PC, so I borrowed a small stool to place the PC on the bed. I put a notebook under the PC to allow for ventilation. The young lady staff was friendly, which was nice. The other staff members didn't speak English. There was a line forming in front of the hotel around noon. When I asked, they said it was a famous noodle shop. I happened to be leaving at that moment, so I couldn't check the taste (photo of the line). The other photo shows noodles from a corner shop to the left of the hotel. What is reflected on top of the noodles is pickled bamboo shoots (kimchi style). This is rare. It's spicy but delicious. So, will I stay here again? I'm hesitant in making a decision, but since I got used to working on the computer while on the bed, I might consider staying again if the price is around this level.

The location is right in the old town, opposite the bun chửi shop, next to a super delicious mixed vermicelli with squid & at the end of the alley there is Sướng pho + a famous snail restaurant. The room is clean. I was delayed by my flight and had to rent an extra 4 hours, but they were out of rooms so I had to rent a temporary double room, which was quite expensive.

I leave my baggage for 3days its comple and no charge they just good service and accomodating Cheap

It was nice staying here

Liked: We needed to stay one night in the old quarter before heading out the next morning. This hotel served our purposes well for that. The AC was nice. Also, the staff were kind and happy to see us which made the experience better overall

Disliked: It was not very clean and the balcony had construction leftovers on it.

Good budget hotel in old quarter near to attractions and nice behaviour of hotel staff...
