財産 — The Lapis Hotel
The Lapis Hotel on Hanoi’s Hang Trong Street is a modest three-star with clean, compact rooms and a quiet courtyard terrace. Its lobby feels efficient and no-frills, with a small reception desk, a few sofas, and a coffee machine that gets you through the Hanoi humidity. The USP is location: you’re a two-minute walk from Hoan Kiem Lake and the Old Quarter’s walking streets. It suits budget-conscious travellers who prioritise being in the thick of the action over luxury touches.
Hanoiの歴史
Hanoi was founded as a citadel in 1010 under Ly Thai To, then renamed Thang Long (Ascending Dragon). The French rebuilt the city in the late 19th century, laying out tree-lined boulevards and colonial villas around Hoan Kiem Lake. Post-1954, Hanoi became the capital of North Vietnam, and its architecture now mixes faded Art Deco, brutalist Soviet-style blocks, and narrow ‘tube houses’ in the Old Quarter. Culturally, it’s a city of stooped noodle stalls, motorbike chaos, and a quiet confidence in its thousand-year heritage.
訪れるのに最適な時間
Hanoi完全ガイド →最高の月
October and November are ideal: cool, dry air (20-25°C) and clear skies, plus the autumn festival season. March-April also works, with mild temperatures after the humid winter.
ピーク/フェスティバル Surge
July is peak summer: temperatures hit 33-38°C with high humidity and frequent thunderstorms. Hotel prices in the Old Quarter rise 15-20% as domestic and Chinese tourists crowd the lake and temples. No major festival in July, but summer school break fuels demand.
予算肩の季節
May and September: slightly lower prices (10-15% off peak), still warm but fewer tourists, and the rains are manageable. September brings the Mid-Autumn Festival (Tet Trung Thu), but it’s family-centric, not a massive crowd driver.
天気&パッケージ
Hanoi’s climate is subtropical monsoonal: July is sticky, with sudden downpours and intense midday sun. Pack a light rain jacket or compact umbrella and wear breathable fabrics—cotton or linen—plus comfortable sandals that dry quickly.
LIVE CITY BRIEFING — Hanoi
- Hanoi’s electric bus service around Hoan Kiem Lake (line 03) expanded in early 2026, making the hotel area quieter and easier to navigate on foot.
- Several Old Quarter streets—including Hang Gai and Hang Bac—are now pedestrian-only from Friday evening to Sunday night; plan sightseeing around this.
- The city’s Heat Action Plan, launched in 2025, provides free water stations and shaded rest points near the lake during summer—use them.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to The Lapis Hotel, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on floors 3-5 facing the inner courtyard. These floors are high enough to avoid street-level noise but within service range of the lift, and the courtyard side is reliably quieter than the street side.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms on floor 2 (directly above the lobby and restaurant — expect chair scraping and kitchen clatter until 10pm) and any room facing a busy Hanoi street like Hang Bong or Hang Gai, as traffic horns and motorbikes run late into the night.
Best views
A courtyard-facing room on floor 4 or 5 offers a green view of planting and local rooftops — much more pleasant than the direct street view of traffic and shopfronts. No river or monument views at this address.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 through 5 are the quietest, buffered from street noise by lower floors and not reaching the roof where the lift motor room sits.
🔊 Noise notes
Direct street noise is constant from 6am to midnight due to Hanoi's dense motorbike and taxi traffic. The hotel's own restaurant holds pre-booked tour groups from 7-9am and 6-8pm, adding chatter and cutlery clatter. Lift doors ping audibly on floor 2.
Insider tips
1. Check in by 2pm to guarantee a top-floor courtyard room — these are few and first to go. 2. Ask reception for a room on the building's north side (usually quieter as it's away from the main traffic junction).
- 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

Hanoiのトップ観光スポット
💡 Start at Hang Bac (Silver Street) around 9am – the silver workshops are fascinating. Avoid motorbikes by sticking to the narrowest alleys. Street food here costs 20-40,000 VND a dish.
💡 Walk the lake at 6am to see locals doing tai chi and badminton. Sunset is crowded with photographers but worth it for the light on Turtle Tower.
💡 Book the 5:15pm show to avoid tourist crowds. Sit in row C or D – row A gets wet from splashes. Arrive 20 minutes early to see the puppets being prepared backstage (ask nicely).
💡 Go early on a weekday to avoid tour groups. The back garden has a banyan tree and koi pond that most people miss.
💡 The outdoor section is the highlight – allow 2 hours. Go on a Saturday when ethnic minority guides sometimes give free tours. Taxi from the centre costs 50,000 VND.
