I loved that it was located right in the middle. 10 min bycycle to beach and same to the old town. They let you use the bycycle for free. Beutiful place next to rice fields and quiet.

Khai Homestay offered 5* service and hospitality. It was really excellent and if I return to Hanoi, I would definitely choose to stay there again. The person dealing with guests, Hoanh, could not have been more helpful. He replied to all emails quickly. He spoke enough English to answer questions. He was helpful, polite and kind. The accommodation is a simple establishment which suited me perfectly. Hoanh lets you know when you book that there are shared bathrooms and stairs. This may not suit everyone. I found this no problem as the bathroom is kept spotless. After people shower, it is dried and ready to use again. It is only shared between two rooms. The bed was firm and, in my opinion, very comfortable. The bedding was good too. The room is large enough for one or two people. Tissues and a power board which is suitable for different sized plugs are provided. There's a bedside lamp. The aircon is very good. The location is convenient in the Old Quarter. It's not far from the Long Bien bus stop, where the airport bus stops. It's easy for taxis to find as it's next to a temple. It was very quiet in the evenings. There is some noise in the mornings but not as much as in many places in Hanoi. It's in an alley but this feels very safe. The price is reasonable. The photos on the booking website are accurate. If you want a simple place to stay in a convenient location at a reasonable price with a great host, it's perfect for you.

Fantastic! I enjoy my time there a lot. I was greeted by excellent lake view in the morning and closed the day with amazing sunset. I felt peaceful while staying with the cozy, private space but with vibrant lifestyle. I had chance to talk and share with other guests. Overall, this place made my trip, it gave me a lot of experience and feelings!

All hostels in Hanoi

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

One of the best hostels I've stayed at in Asia! The hostel is really beautiful with great facilities e.g. a hair dryer and a pool to use. The staff are really friendly, they let me check-out late, they stored my luggage for me whilst I did the loop, and they let me change the dates of my booking last minute. The beds are comfortable with a bedside light and storage locker as well as lockers big enough for my 55L bag. Great location. Really enjoyed the free walking tour which helped me meet other travellers.

Great hostel, great location and staff is available for any questions you could have and speak good English. We booked a room as we were just arriving in Vietnam for a long trip, the room was good, confortable and clean. The rooftop is the place to go if you want to meet some backpackers and take a drink!
