Stayed just for 1 night but was very comfortable and the staff were fabulous. Located near the lake and the water puppet theatre so many sights were easily walkable.

6/10

Location of the hotel is good. Very central, and just a short walk to the lake. The hotel itself would benefit from a deep clean. Some staff were friendly and helpful, others looked disinterested (bar staff and guys on the door) Reception area was smart, however was greeted on our floor by ripped carpet outside the lift. The hotel room itself was okay, the bathroom appeared to have been separated from the sleeping area as an afterthought. A bit of tender loving care could make this hotel a decent 3 star hotel.

5-night trip

10/10

Had a good nights sleep , bed was comfortable but small compared to other hotel rooms in Hanoi. Shower had good warm water pressure. Staff were excellent especially Leo. Very polite and a helpful young man. Convenient location, close to all tourist hotspots. Pictures on site are not same as bedroom

The staff at Shining Boutique are so wonderful. They called us upon arrival to make sure we were on our way. They were happy to help with anything we needed. Would stay here again!

10/10

Shining Central was the perfect choice for our 3 days in Hanoi. It's location in the Old Quarter was perfect and very convenient. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The staff was just above and beyond - so friendly and helpful. I had items which I purchased in Hoi An earlier in my trip delivered and there was no problem receiving this package. They also booked taxis, shows and tours for us. And the massage I booked in the spa was fantastic. Great place all around.

The room was upgraded. Room was clean and staffs are kind. Air conditioner should be upgraded. It takes a very long time to adjust room temperature.

2-night trip

10/10

I would definitely recommend the Shining Central. The hotel is well located in the Old Quarter, with nearby provision stores and restaurants. The room I stayed in was comfortable and clean. Breakfast was a good spread of local Vienamese and international buffet dishes. But the biggest recommendation has to go to the staff, who were very helpful and friendly. They helped us to buy last minute tickets to the water puppet show, and arranged a driver to the Perfume Pagoda complex. They also called me to tell me that I'd accidentally left behind a jacket in the room, and arranged to send it to me back home. Superb service!

6-night trip

8/10

Hotel just reopened after 4 months after Covid situation in Vietnam, hence a very neat and nice hotel overall. Location is also walkable (10mins) to nearby Bia Hoi Junction. Hotel also offer a discounted for their massage/spa packages, which is a good deal too. A very welcoming sight upon entering the room as informed we are celebrating an occasion and they duly got the room prepared for it, thank you for the effort and dedication. It was a good view from the highest floor of your hotel, despite it is only 9 floors. However, would like to highlight that whenever we enter the room each time we came back, there is still foul smell after opening the door. Maybe it could be due to the air circulation when the aircon is off when we head out, but it is alright after 5mins. Other than that, the stay is wonderful ! Will be happy to be back here again.

하노이에 또 가게 된다면 여기에 다시 지낼 정도로 저는 만족도가 높았습니다. 모든 직원분들이 친절했지만 특히 안경 쓰신 여자 직원분 최고십니다. 한국말도 완벽하시고 모든 적극적으로 도와주셨습니다. 돈 찾으려고 ATM을 찾았는데 날도 덥고 길도 잘 몰라서 헤맸는데 직원분이 오토바이로 안내해 주셨어요. 고장 나거나 돈이 인출 안되는 곳도 많았는데 여기저기 계속 데려다주시고 너무 감사했습니다. 사파 가려고 아침 버스 타야 했는데 맛있는 샌드위치도 싸주시고 너무 감동받았어요

The staff were so accommodating and helpful when my partner and I needed to stay an extra night and went out of their way above and beyond to ensure we had everything we required. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay, highly recommended.

旧市街にも、大聖堂周辺にもアクセスしやすい場所で、探したところ、このホテルに決めました。結果、とてもよかったです。近いだけでなく、細い通りがたくさんある中で、とても見つけやすい場所でした。部屋はきれいで、バスタブ付きの部屋にアップグレードしてもらえ、町歩きで疲れた体を癒せました。旧市街にありがちな、排水設備の悪さや、うるささもありませんでした。スタッフの女性たちはとても魅力的で、親切で、いろいろな質問や要望にも快くこたえてくれました。またハノイへ行くことがあれば、リピートします。
