Hotel Nikko Hanoi

Hanoi


This 16-storey luxury Japanese property has rooms that are substantially larger than the mainstay of Hanoi hotels, but although spotlessly clean, those picky about design might think they're looking a little dated. The outdoor pool and leafy location opposite Thong Nhat Park are welcome bonuses. Breakfasts focus on Japanese, Chinese and Vietnamese cuisine.
