L’HÔTEL du LAC Hanoi
We had a truly amazing stay at du LAC, the team are beyond incredible and were so friendly and welcoming. They went above and beyond to help celebrate my wife’s birthday, decorating the room. We cannot recommend them enough, hopefully we’ll be back soon!

The reason that I left a 1 star rating is because I got food poisoning from the breakfast buffet and this is also the same day need to take a long haul back to Canada.
