Pas du luxe mais très agréable pour 3 ou 4 nuits.
Pros:

L’accueil du personnel, l’emplacement, le linge propre, les boissons à dispo dans le lobby et dans le mini bar. La douche était bien, nous pouvions poser nos produits.

Cons:

L’ascenseur qui ne va pas jusqu’au 6, les fenêtres sont floutées, les volets ne cachaient pas toute la lumière, les poubelles un peu petites mais nous chipotons car la chambre et le service étaient incroyables.

Très bon séjour !
Pros:

Très bon séjour au Lantern Hôtel, les services gratuit proposé sont un gros plus ! (Lessive gratuite, eau et coca frais gratuit, wifi portable pour la journée,…)
Le personnel était très aimable et à l’écoute, la chambre était propre.

Cons:

Nous séjournions dans la chambre au 2eme étage la fenêtre donnait sur une ruelle qui ne laissait pas entrer de lumière ceux qui rendait la chambre un peu sombre durant la journée.

Good location and polite staff but painfully uncomfortable, outdated and smelling
Pros:

Polite staff, respectful, helpful
Laundry service was a great addition - clean clothes retuned same day
Location is really good and wasn’t too loud at night (sometimes neighbours would be retching and vomiting at night which wasn’t the best though but the hotel can’t control that).

Cons:

The bed was unbelievably uncomfortable so much so that it hurt my ribs and hips if sleeping on my front or sides. Of course, mattresses are subjective, and this seems to be a Vietnamese trait, but I am in another hotel now that is really soft yet firm and is like sleeping on a feather!
For the price, breakfast should be included. It is a small, outdated hotel – if that – with furniture that was stained / marked, and the worst part was also the drains in the shower and bathroom which were absolutely revolting whereby every night I had a rotten smell permeating my room.
The Air Conditioner also was so super loud that I couldn’t sleep at night.
Again, lovely staff and really polite!! But, you can get much better quality and a good night’s sleep for less money elsewhere, even in District 1

Pros:

Staff are very kind, responsive, and rooms clean. Great location.

Cons:

It is a very basic hotel, more like a guesthouse but without a kitchen. If you get a room with a window it’s extremely loud. Not the staff’s fault of course, but the street noise is the loudest I’ve ever heard in a hotel, and you can hear every door close, creak, etc from other guests. I was surprised because based on all the reviews, I didn’t expect it to be so loud or quite so barebones.
