“This is the city’s most historic and celebrated luxury address, in the most salubrious part of Hanoi, next to the Opera House.”

“A beautiful example of neo-classical architecture, the 364-room address features a white façade and wrought-iron details.”

“While the entire hotel nods to French and Vietnamese design, my room in the newer Opera Wing — with its white neoclassical-style moldings and dark-wood furniture — gave me that same whimsical feeling I have when staying at five-star hotels in Paris.”

“All accommodations have supremely comfortable down-and-feather mattresses to lull guests.”

“This refined [Le Club] bar in the historic Metropole Hanoi now sports a brand new look, adopting a Roaring Twenties speakeasy aesthetic.”

“While the oldest continuing hotel in Hanoi exudes old world French-inspired charm, the two-storied spa speaks of modern blends of Eastern and Western decor”
