Best Hotels with Activities in Hanoi

Hanoi is Vietnam's capital, built around the tangled lanes of the Old Quarter and the willow-lined shore of Hoan Kiem Lake. Families base themselves near the lake or the French Quarter for walkable access to the Thang Long Water Puppet Theater, Dong Xuan Market and the Temple of Literature, with Noi Bai International Airport roughly 24 km to the north. Hotels cluster tightly in the city centre, so a stroller can cover most sightseeing on foot without a taxi.
