Service
9.1
Service is generally praised—staff often described as lovely, accommodating (late check-ins, booking adjustments) and communicative—however several reviews mention impolite, mechanical or inattentive staff and occasional sales pressure; overall leans positive.
Location
9.9
Consistently highlighted as a major strength: extremely central, in the Old Quarter, walking distance to attractions and nightlife; many guests call the location 'perfect' or 'super central'.
Room Quality
7.5
Multiple complaints about very small rooms, limited space for suitcases, windowless/poorly lit or claustrophobic rooms and morning noise over the restaurant; some rooms have balconies and comfortable beds—overall room quality is mixed-to-below-expectation.
Amenities
8.2

Value for Money
8
Mixed perceptions: several guests praise the hotel as great quality for money and recommend it, while others explicitly call the price-value relationship poor ('rapporto qualità-prezzo assolutamente scarso').

Breakfast opinions are mixed—some guests found it exceptional, but multiple reviews mention below-average, limited or little variety in the breakfast; overall slightly below the hotel's average.
Overall Experience

Pros:

Belligenheden er god!

Cons:

Vi boede her i to forskellige omgange. Det første værelse vi havde var fint, stort og ok rent. Det andet, var småt, lugtede lidt indelukket, og der er fugt i hjørnet.

Pros:

A massive shout out to the hotel manager Mr Phu, what an amazing hospitality and such a gentleman. He made our stay so comfortable and extraordinary for us. We helped us booking the Halong Bay/Lan ha bay cruise with him. We arranged such a fabulous cruise for us and accommodated our dietary requirements so perfectly. He is always available on WhatsApp and replies to all your queries so promptly. Highly highly recommend.

Cons:

There was nothing not to like.

Wonderful Stay — The Staff Made All the Difference
Pros:

Matilda Boutique Hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Hanoi's Old Quarter — everything is walkable, the streets are vibrant, and the atmosphere is exactly what you'd want from a first Hanoi experience.

Our room was neat, clean, and well-maintained with a lovely balcony — a great spot to sit with a morning coffee and watch the city come alive. Exactly what we needed after a long flight.

But the real highlight of our stay was the staff. Genuinely warm, helpful, and attentive — the kind of hospitality that elevates a good hotel into a memorable one.

A special mention for Mr. Phu, who truly went above and beyond. When we approached him for help with our day tours, he didn't just book them — he took the time to understand exactly what we were looking for, arranged a brilliant Lan Ha Bay cruise and a Ninh Binh full day tour that were both perfectly executed. Beyond the tours, his local knowledge was invaluable — restaurant recommendations, what to see, where to go, hidden gems around the Old Quarter. He gave us the kind of tips you'd only get from someone who genuinely loves the city.

Cons:

The breakfast is decent and covers the basics, though we felt the spread could be a little more varied

Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

The room was extremely small and the staff impolite and mechanical. The sink was located near the bed and you can't open more than once suitcase in the room as the area was so small. Breakfast was below average and it felt like a 2 star hotel
