Stayed one night at Rebel Rooster and really liked the vibe — energetic, friendly, and well-run. The staff were welcoming and helpful with local tips. Bed was comfy, clean, and had privacy curtains. Great spot for meeting other travelers. Would come back for a longer stay next time.

I spent 9 impressive days at Wanderlust Station hotel but just dormitory sites . At first, I didn’t expect much due to the low number of reviews, but the experience completely changed my mind. Everything was spotlessly clean, hot shower and convenient are nice, especially dorm bed is the largest I ever stayed in, smelled great, and the atmosphere was pleasantly quiet. The staffs mr Kien and ms My Anh and ms Giang were incredibly kind and supportive. Although I had to park my scooter at a nearby market, they even helped by giving me a ride back to the hotel. At just over $5 per night, it’s an amazing value compared to other places. Highly recommended when you have a plan to come to Ha Noi

This capsule hostel is brand-new, modern, and sparkling clean, with cozy capsules that are both private and comfortable. The staff are warm and friendly, always ready to help with anything you need. What makes this place special is not only the design but also its unbeatable location – right in the Old Quarter, just a 2-minute walk to the famous Train Street and the vibrant local food street. It’s more than just a stay – it’s a fun and unique experience, especially if you’re traveling with friends or in a group. Highly recommended for those who want comfort, convenience, and something different in Hanoi.

It is a brand new hostel that has private rooms and dorm rooms for couples/ females and mix options. Nicely decorated everything is new and clean. They have food such as sandwich, coffee, smoothies, juice. Manager Jonathan is a real gentleman. Him and Johnny can assist you with tours information/organization too. I strongly recommend you stay here. You would not only be pleased but also would have good friends such as Jonathan and Johnny.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

One of the best hostels I've stayed at in Asia! The hostel is really beautiful with great facilities e.g. a hair dryer and a pool to use. The staff are really friendly, they let me check-out late, they stored my luggage for me whilst I did the loop, and they let me change the dates of my booking last minute. The beds are comfortable with a bedside light and storage locker as well as lockers big enough for my 55L bag. Great location. Really enjoyed the free walking tour which helped me meet other travellers.

Great hostel, great location and staff is available for any questions you could have and speak good English. We booked a room as we were just arriving in Vietnam for a long trip, the room was good, confortable and clean. The rooftop is the place to go if you want to meet some backpackers and take a drink! Definitely recommended
