This one bedroom apartment in the Westlake district provided a counterpoint to our Hanoi Old Town experience. It is in a much quieter district. It is a secure compound with key access to the lifts that take you to your apartment. We were at the end of the 2nd floor in Block D and had a lovely view across Westlake. The apartment is quite spacious with a bedroom, bathroom with a bath and shower over the bath, full lounge room and a combined kitchen and laundry. They supplied laundry detergent and we got all our washing done in the combined washing and drying machine. There is also a drying rack on the balcony. The kitchen has a large fridge with freezer, microwave, oven, etc and sufficient utensils to cook and eat with. There is a TV in both the lounge and the bedroom which has lots of options, including Australian and other English speaking options. Despite it being an apartment daily housekeeping was included, which I hadn't expected, so we'd left the kitchen a bit messy our first night and found it cleaned up for us. It was probably a bit big for just a couple for two nights but I was here in 2019 with my daughter, though in a two bedroom apartment, and we loved the privacy and extra space and she still remembers it most fondly four years later. The included breakfast had a nice range of Asian and European options including some cook-on-the-spot dishes that were an excellent start to both our days and we had dinner there one night as well. On the other night we ate in a local Thai restaurant. There is a small market onsite to buy drinks and food to cook if you wish (usually open to 8pm). At reception they were able to offer money exchange for US dollars though not Australian dollars. We enjoyed the onsite pool complex, though we didn't try the other sporting facilities offered, and used the opportunity to walk around Westlake. There is a gate directly out onto the lake but you must ring for security to let you in and out. The Westlake section near the the hotel is quieter and a pleasant walk and there is an interesting carp feeding experience for families very nearby and a very pleasant pagoda in the opposite direction. We did find that taxis and grab vehicles sometimes had difficulty finding the place despite the available signposting so we asked the hotel to arrange the taxi to the airport for us and that worked well. The staff were always courteous and helpful.

Very peaceful and family-friendly residence with much green nature and panorama Westlake view which I think cant be the relaxing oasis for any family's weekend getaway. The rooms are spacious, fully-equipped, nice and cozy, the staffs are friendly with smiles and very helpful every time you need support. Very extensive out-door facilities: very big and clean swimming pool, nice (but rare in Hanoi hotels :) out-door playground, mini-golf, tennis courts, gym & sauna. Daily breakfast with many nice choices enjoyed on the terrace with lake view in the morning is really chilling. Mini mart & ATM on site is also another + for this property. Few km far from city center but hotel provides free shuttle bus to town. Not the new and shinning style but not the big issue if we want to rest in resort. Can't wait to come back again.
