La propiedad — Splendid Star Grand Hotel
The Splendid Star Grand Hotel is a reliable three-star just off Hàng Bông Street in the Old Quarter. It feels more functional than flashy: a compact lobby with polished tile floors, a friendly reception desk, and a small lift that hums up five floors. Rooms are clean and efficient, with decent blackout curtains for the city’s bright mornings. It suits budget-conscious travellers who want a central base rather than boutique charm.
Crónicas de Hà Nội
Hà Nội was founded as the capital of Đại Việt in 1010 under Lý Thái Tổ, who supposedly saw a golden dragon rising from the Red River. Its architecture layers Chinese-influenced imperial citadels, French colonial villas (like the 1901 Opera House), and Soviet-style concrete blocks. The 1990s Đổi Mới reforms sparked a building boom, yet the Old Quarter still keeps its 36 guild streets and tube houses. Today the city balances a thousand-year heritage with modern streetlife: phở stalls under neon signs, and motorbikes swarming around Hoàn Kiếm Lake.
El mejor momento para visitar
Guía completa de Hà Nội →Los mejores meses
March–April and October–November: mild temperatures (20-28°C), low humidity, clear skies. Streets are walkable, and Hoàn Kiếm Lake is at its best.
Peak / Festival Surge
July is peak domestic and international tourism (summer holidays). You'll see 70-90% humidity and temps hitting 36°C. Hotel rates jump 20-30%. The Hà Nội Tourism Festival (mid-July) fills the Old Quarter with street food stalls and performances.
La temporada del hombro
May and September offer lower room rates (often 15-25% off peak). Weather is still warm (28-34°C) but with fewer crowds. September is particularly good after the peak ends.
Tiempo y embalaje
July in Hà Nội is hot and muggy with sudden afternoon downpours. Pack lightweight, quick-dry clothing plus a compact rain jacket or umbrella — one that fits in a day bag because you’ll need it daily.
Briefing en vivo de la ciudad — Hà Nội
- The Hà Nội Metro Line 2A (Cát Linh–Hà Đông) now runs reliably from 5am to 10pm, offering a cheap, air-con alternative to taxi traffic for reaching the city’s south-western districts.
- Hoàn Kiếm Lake’s weekend walking zone (7pm–midnight Fri–Sun) has been extended through summer, closing roads around the lake to motorbikes for pedestrian markets and street performers.
- A new direct bus route from Nội Bài Airport (route 86) recently added late-night services until 11:30pm, cutting taxi costs for late arrivals.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Splendid Star Grand Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3 to 5 facing the inner courtyard or rear of the building. These floors are high enough to avoid street-level noise but low enough for reliable hot water and lift access.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floor 1 (street noise and possible damp) and any room directly above the lift shaft or facing Thọ Xương street — that narrow lane funnels motorbike and delivery scooter noise from early morning.
Best views
Rooms on the upper floors (4-5) facing west over Thọ Xương offer a glimpse of the Old Quarter rooftops, but avoid the direct lane view — it's busy. A side view over the neighbouring shop houses is more interesting and quieter.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 through 5 — they sit above the street bustle but below the roof terrace if there is one, and are well-served by the lift.
🔊 Noise notes
Thọ Xương is a narrow street in the Old Quarter, busy with motorbikes and street vendors from 6am. The building likely has a single lift; rooms near the lift shaft on any floor will hear clanking and chimes. Also expect neighbourhood karaoke until 10pm — a common Hanoi reality.
Insider tips
Ask for a room on floors 3-4 with an inner courtyard view — it's much quieter. If you have a scooter, the hotel may have underground parking (common in Hanoi 3-stars), so ask at check-in. The lift is slow; take the stairs for floors 1-3.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

💡 Ignore the men offering to take your photo with the 'turtle' — it's a stuffed specimen and costs extra. Walk anti-clockwise for the most peaceful views.
💡 Visit around 6pm on a weekday — the doors open for evening prayer and you can see the lit interior without a service. Avoid Sunday morning unless you want to attend mass.
💡 Visit on weekday mornings only — it's closed afternoons and Mondays. Bring ID and leave bags at the free luggage counter outside. Combine with the One Pillar Pagoda next door (also free).
💡 Go on weekdays before 10am to avoid school groups. The back garden near the Khue Van pavilion is usually empty for photos.
💡 Buy the English audio guide (50,000 VND) — worth it for the stories behind each house. Visit the outdoor area first before the heat builds. Free lockers at the entrance.
