Hanoi Ecostay Hostel

Unclaimed

Great Hospitality and Good value. For the price, it offers excellent value for money, perfect for budget travelers. It’s conveniently located in the heart of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, making it easy to explore popular attractions, street food spots, and local shops on foot.

Some staff are good, and the entire hostel, for the price paid seemingly goes above and beyond. The place is very small and simple with one 2nd and 3rd floor dormitory with ensuites. Each bed has a built-in table, electrical outlet and a fan. There are two AC units in each and a kettle and a large table for socialising, eating and working. The place is staffed from the morning until 00:00ish. The location is central and water can be purchased at reception. Additionally should you wish you can move or utilise the facilities of EcoStay 2 which is a 5 minute walk away. Very well managed for the most part indeed, and the WiFi is strong. I think, however, that the other staff are slacking substantially and seem to forget that a dorm is for sleeping, hence why most people book. I wouldn't stay again as the sleep quality is super poor and there is absolutely no real security at all as all the doors are open throughout the night (building door included) so anyone can enter without even paying and take a bed (and it happened often) or no doubt on some past and future occasion, some people's belongings.

Not as fancy as it shows on the picture, but very good location, the staff is very kind and helpful and the beds are also decent with curtains.
