Intercontinental Hotel & Resorts-boenden i Hanoi

The soundproofing is completely lacking. I can hear people talking outside the room, pulling luggage, cleaning, and people chatting and playing near the thay ho. Perhaps because of the building's structural characteristics, the sounds echo so loudly that it feels like I'm right next to you. I stayed for three days, but my head hurt so much that I couldn't rest comfortably. I wouldn't recommend this hotel to anyone who's sensitive to noise like me. I didn't get a good night's sleep.

Very good stay though access was very difficult as the typhoon had fallen over Hanoi. Room are spacious and clean. The service is top notch and breakfast very varied. We had diner at the Steakhouse restaurant which was good, though the meat was a bit stiff.
