La Siesta Classic Ma May

Exceptional service, all the staff exceeds expectations.

Located at the heart of the old quarter, best way to experience the local scenery.

Highly recommended! :)

The hotel was a great stay and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They helped arrange a boat and transportation to and from the airport. They spoke great English and gave us good recommendations about spots to eat around the hotel as well as coffee.

Fantastic accommodation- clean & lovely atmosphere. Breakfast was amazing. Location was great- central to everything.

Excellent service. Beautiful rooms. Would definitely recommend staying here.

A great location, beautiful rooms, and very good breakfast. All the staff are very friendly and helpful, take care of all your needs. The location was perfect with stunning views.

We had a lovely stay in Hanoi. Heart of a very busy old quarter but a relaxing and welcoming hotel. Excellent food . Service was brilliant, especially June, and went above and beyond on one of our party’s birthdays. Hotel was nicely decorated and had everything needed. 10/10.

Wonderful service from all the staff at this very nice central hotel. We were very pleased with our stay, comfortable spacious room, good breakfast and pleasant rooftop bar.
The help we received from Jun on reception made our stay even more enjoyable and convenient. She went above and beyond to give us suggestions on shopping , eating out , bookings and could not have been more helpful.
We made good use of the lovely spa, very professional enjoyable massages and facials. I would thoroughly recommend the 2 therapists we used.
Overall the hotel was excellent. Couldn’t fault it.

Excelent service, great location, the people was amazing very nice and friendly

La Siesta was the first hotel that we stayed at on our 2 week trip to Vietnam and it truly set the stage for an incredible trip. The hotel is lovely and centrally located. The included breakfast each morning was delicious. We traveled with 2 elementary aged kids and they loved the buffet and looked forward to it upon waking.

As wonderful as the hotel was itself, the staff and service are what puts it over the top. Every person is incredibly friendly and committed to offering 5 star service. We were greeted by Jun, who was amazing. She told us all about the hotel and surrounding activities and recommendations. The waitstaff at the happy hour rooftop bar each night were phenomenal as well.

This hotel is worth every penny. Highly recommend for your trip to Hanoi.

we borrowed a bath after check-out for the late flight. It was very kind:)
staffs are very friendly and buffet breakfast was also great!

We were a bit nervous visiting Vietnam for the first time since we usually stay at larger brand hotels, but we truly got lucky here! The location in the Old Quarter is perfect, and the accommodations exceeded our expectations.

We highly recommend booking a junior suite if having extra space is important to you—it made a big difference in comfort. The beds are incredibly comfortable, and the staff is amazing—so kind and attentive throughout our stay. Thank you for such a wonderful experience!

In the midst of chaotic traffic in Hanoi’s Old Quarter lies an oasis!
We’ve just returned from our Vietnam Odyssey and we spent 6 days ( not consecutive) in this peaceful hotel.
Staff are very attentive- there is always someone there when you enter to open a door, always someone available to answer a question etc.
Breakfast is ample with plenty of choice and upon request the cook made banana gluten free muffins for me. For someone who must always eat gluten free this was a big plus as I always look with envy at the great variety of pastries on offer.
Plenty of choices though for anyone Gluten Free.
The rooms are clean and well presented. No bath, just a shower.
Rooms have the usual kettle and bar fridge but with the added bonus of a coffee plunger. For 2 early rising coffee addicts this was a nice bonus as we could sip an early morning coffee while waiting for breakfast to start.
All of our accommodation in Vietnam was outstanding but the La Siesta staff were the best!

The La Siesta Classic Ma May Hanoi is a lovely hotel in the heart of Old Town Hanoi, with absolutely fantastic staff ( June, An , Doan and all their team)who go out of their way to make sure your stay is comfortable and you have everything you need, including recommendations for restaurants which were spot on, assisting in locating a pharmacy for medicine that I needed and making sure I would get delicious vegan dishes for breakfast. Although the hotel is in a very lively street our room was quiet and we slept well. Very comfortable beds too.

My husband and I spent 6 nights at La Siesta in March, not consecutive days - 2 days then 4 nights away, another 2 then 2 nights away and finally our las 2 nights before returning to Australia. The returns felt like ‘coming home’ so familiar did the hotel and it’s employees become!
The room was lovely. Really loved that we could make a plunger coffee in our room early in the morning. We’re early risers!
Breakfast was more than ample ( so much choice) and big plus as someone who must avoid gluten I was able to order a banana gluten free muffin when I wanted something sweet. So grateful thank you. I always look longingly at all the lovely pastries and watch with envy as my husband tries them.
We also ate at the restaurant a few times and the food was outstanding. Can definitely recommend.
Best of all though were the staff- always smiling, always helpful. No issue seemed too big.
A big than you especially to An who was very helpful and to the doorman who was always there to open that door.
I’m sorry I don’t remember more staff names as there were more I could thank.
Should we return this is where we will stay again and of course we will be recommending La Siesta to friends and family.

Excellent experience from start to finish. Staff go above and beyond to help. Room lovely and clean, great size.

Only had breakfast once, but that was a good selection.

Our only small criticism would be that our room was at the front of the hotel and it was noisy at night outside - although I fully appreciate this is due to being in Hanoi than the hotel’s fault!

Would recommend.

Rooms great, and breakfast exceptional - as we left we were offered a room to shower in as we had a late flight, really really good service

Amazing hotel - impeccable service, beautiful rooms , excellent brewkfast and right in centre of old town.

Such an amazing hotel in a great location! The rooms are great, spacious and with a comfortable bed! The service is top notch, the breakfast was amazing! I loved Happy Hour at the rooftop bar!

Disclaimer : the hotel has NOT insisted us to write this review unlike many other places in Vietnam.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at La Siesta Classic Ma May in Hanoi! We had originally booked a junior suite, but to our pleasant surprise, we were upgraded to a family suite — and what an upgrade it was! It felt more like a spacious two-bedroom apartment, with huge rooms and an incredibly large private terrace all to ourselves. It truly made our stay extra special.

The entire hotel was spotlessly clean, which made the experience even more comfortable and reassuring.

The breakfast was another highlight — a fantastic spread with a wide variety of options, including Vietnamese, European, and even Japanese dishes. Every single item we tried was delicious and thoughtfully prepared.

What really stood out, though, was the staff. They were extremely courteous, warm, and always ready to help with a smile, making us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay.

The rooftop sky bar is an absolute gem — beautifully decorated with incredible, unobstructed views of the entire city. It’s the perfect place to unwind and take in Hanoi from above.

Location is top notch, just steps away from the bustling beer street but tucked in the Ma May street which becomes quieter at night, allowing you a comfortable sleep.

The hotel also has an elevator, which is a big plus in the Old Quarter area. Overall, this is definitely one of the best places to stay in Hanoi’s Old Quarter, and we would highly recommend it to anyone visiting the city!

We stayed two nights and were looked after from the start with an early check in (10.30am). The room was beautifully appointed, sound proof and the bed so comfortable.
Breakfast was a highlight. Cooked to your liking and a huge array available from the buffet.
June looked after us so well with ATM recommendations and answering any other questions we had. Nothing was too much trouble.
All the staff were of the highest standard and a stay here makes you feel very special.
The hotel is happily situated within walking distance of convenience stores, the lake and all the other must see Hanoi attractions.
I’d highly recommend.
