This popular chain hotel in an up-and-coming suburb of Hanoi offers excellent value, despite its location about 30 minutes' drive from the Old Quarter. Large, stylish rooms with good views are well priced in comparison with downtown offerings, the buffet breakfast is one of Hanoi's best and the pleasant outdoor pool is frequently empty of swimmers. Enormous junior suites are worth the splurge.
