Especen Hotel

Overall, an excellent budget hotel! It was my pleasure to stay at the Especen Hotel for 2 nights recently - what a fantastic room for $25. (wrap around windows and balcony) - very large rooms and everything was in order. I will be back at the Especen when next in Hanoi.

About Especen Hotel

Especen hotel is one of the first mini hotels since 1990s located in the center of the Old Quarter in Hanoi. It is just a stone through from St. Joseph's Church (Cathedral) on a quiet alley off of Ấu Triệu street. This convenient location allows us to be just a 5 minute walk from Hoan Kiem lake, Vietnam Airlines booking office & Quang Trung bus stop (for service to Noi Bai international airport). You can get all famous travel points, restaurants, craft shops, pubs and art galleries,... as soon as you step on to the main road.
