The Hoabinh Palace Hotel was a really pleasant experience for us. The location is excellent, right in the middle of the Old Quarter, within walking distance of most sights. The room was very clean and comfortable. You are given complimentary fresh fruit daily, the laundry service is cheap and very efficent, and the staff are very eager to please and very helpful. I would suggest trying to get a room that does not face the road as it was quite loud at times. We would stay there again.
