Nice clean hotel 1KM from Old Town
Older hotel outside of Old Town, which meant larger rooms, nice gym and large breakfast area. Hotel is older but was very clean. The only issue we had was the shower water pressure which was very poor, almost unusable. Our friends had the same issue in their room as well so it was not confined to just our room. Overall, nice hotel and nice stay, just hope they can resolve the water pressure issue for the guests.

Smart hotel with great staff on Reception
The hotel was very smart and clean and the Reception staff were really really excellent. However the restaurant staff were not so good - we had one evening meal there and they were more interested in chatting and larking around or talking loudly on their radios than looking after the customers. The bar staff were downright rude one evening when we wanted a drink at 9.50pm. They said they closed at 10 then switched off the lights and left!! The reason was that they are government employees and cannot work over their allocated time. This was thankfully and respectfully explained to us by the lovely chap on the reception desk who went out of his way to look after us and get us a juice from the restaurant instead. The rooms were lovely and we had a free upgrade too. The breakfast was great especially the porridge and coffee. The pool and gym were top class although the water was quite cold. I had some great swims with it all to myself.

Location is right in the middle between old town and representative side so I walked alot. Very good service all around the hotel. Never had the pool service person coming with a towel towards me! Breakfast was ok but could be presented nicer. The only minor complaint/suggestion I have is to find a way to keep the noise of the water pump down - it does not help to keep the door open...

Great place - room cleanliness is the only issue
This place is great, we stayed an extra four nights! The pool is fabulous and the staff lovely. We had a problem with the WiFi and toilet hose and they sorted it immediately, no fuss. The breakfast is also very nice, with lots of choice. The cleaning of the rooms could be better. There's was a clump of hair in our room on day one and on day two it had been massaged into the carpet. The other bits of dirt on the floor never even moved. On the penultimate day they said they'd made the room up but they'd just done the beds and water in the room. That being said, we'd stay again because it was so relaxing overall. We wouldn't try the bar again though, we went once, ordered drinks after twenty minutes of waiting and then got ignored when someone new came over and placed an order. We never saw the drinks! Four days later we did get approached and asked if we wanted anything though...

Nice hotel in the good neighborhood
Big hotel with swimming pool near the quiet area. Walking distance to explore president palace, botanic garden & Hochimin museum. A little bit far from the airport express bus station & Hoan Kiem lake. You can enjoy afternoon relaxation in the swimming pool. Most of the staffs were nice & friendly except one of the female front desk clerk. Needs more efforts for room cleaning. They didn’t change bed sheets during whole 4 day stay.

A great way to finish a holiday
The army hotel was my final hotel for my stay in Vietnam and it was a Well presented and Elegant hotel. The rooms are comfortable and cosy but the only downside is the poor Conditions of various items in the room. I had to personally clean all the scum off the shower head so it could freely flow with water and not spray in various directions whilst trying to shower which was a initial inconvenience for my girlfriend. The mould which covered 40% of the walls near the shower was also quite disgusting, But the other 60% of the room was very nice.

Great stay, good location & cheap as chips!
Large hotel which based right next to the Army barracks (lots of army in the hotel lobby during the day having meetings and socialising which is interesting to observe). Great location as very very cheap cab ride to District 1 which is where all of the restaurants and nightlife is. WARNING - If you don’t like hard beds do not stay here - beds are firm (my friend described it to be like sleeping on rocks). The rooms however are large, spacious and have an excellent bathroom with complimentary shampoos etc which are replenished every day. Large selection for breakfast - omelettes and eggs to order, rice, noodle soups, breads, pastry’s, fruit and even fried snakes head! The price that you pay is so good at this hotel I would definitely come back!!!! The only 2 negatives were the Room Service (very little choice and the 1st two options we requested were unavailable), and also the hotel restaurant wasn’t great, food we had here in the evening upon arrival was not good! - lots of better places in the area within a 10 mins stroll. Also had a good pool which only the westerners appeared to use. Front desk staff helpful. They arranged private transfers for us both ways. Return airport run was $20 whilst pick up $30 due to waiting costs for driver etc. Return can can be called for $15 but most of the local cabs are very small so if you have a lot of luggage you won’t fit. I will definitely return to the hotel and highly recommend it!

End of Holiday
Good value 4 star hotel about 20 minutes walk from the centre of the old quarter Rooms are large and spacious as is the bathroom and shower There is a decent gym and nice swimming pool but it is icy cold, during my stay at the end of March I usually had the pool to my self. The public areas of the hotel are very comfortable and relaxing. The spa that is advertised does not exist although it appears some of the staff are unaware of this. I would request a top floor room if possible as the views from the lower floors are limited. Parts of the hotel need a little updating in its decor Any body who wants a very good hotel with good amenities at a reasonable cost compared with others of a similar standard in Hanoi should certainly consider the Army Hotel.

Bed is bad, room is old but breakfast is fantastic
The room was not as good as I would have expected for a 4-star hotel. The design was old and the bed was too hard for me that every morning when I woke up I felt pain in my back and neck and I needed to go to massage for 3 days in a row to relieve the pain. The breakfast however is a pleasant surprise. Many choices of food and it was spacious. I like the rice noodle section the most. Very tasty! It reflects the local taste of "Pho". That's how they call it. I would not return to this hotel as I think at this price I would have expected a more comfortable room but location wise it is fine. Within walking distance (10-30 mins) to almost all major attractions

Very comfortable hotel, staff very helpful. Pool area quite nice with a big pool and good seating. Breakfast was good but not great. Location within walking distance of most of Hanoi's attractions (Mausoleum, military history, citadel, fine arts, & Temple of Literature). Also near places selling Ha Bia or fresh beer - at US $ .20 ( 5000 d) for a large mug it's the best reason for going to Hanoi. Price wise seemed a good deal.
