Resorts in Hanoi

Our stay at Hamaya Home Hotel was truly unforgettable! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the exceptional quality of their services. The attention to detail in every corner of the hotel is remarkable. The restaurant is a gem—each dish was beautifully presented and tasted incredible. Their homemade lemonades were a refreshing delight, crafted to perfection. We stayed in the room with a view of the pool, which was absolutely stunning. The outdoor bathtub overlooking the pool was a luxurious touch, and the room itself was warm and inviting. A special mention goes to Susan, who made our experience even more extraordinary. She was not only helpful upon our arrival but consistently attentive throughout our stay. Her passion for her work truly shines, and it made us feel so welcome and cared for. Thank you, Hamaya Home Hotel, for an exceptional experience. We can’t wait to return!

Breakfast was an eclectic selection of both local produce such as seasonal fruits, pastries and breads, an array of locally produced juices, steaming warm Vietnamese soup and eggs that are made to your liking. Ingredients such as onion, tomato, bacon, capsicum can be made into an omelette. The food was exceptional. Our tour guide and sustainability expert Ms Nhung had a wealth of knowledge when it came to the Ba Vi mountain ranges, with bespoke French Colonial ruins of stone dotting the landscape. Ms Nhung was generous with her knowledge of the plants, fruits and natural flora and fauna of the mountain. We picked and tasted herbs, strawberries, pomelo fruits and searched for ripe figs, albeit unsuccessfully. Well-educated and passionate, I recommend Nhung’s tour for those with business and leisure interests in environmental sustainable design. The facilities were also glorious - a gym with a bespoke rainforest view, an infinity pool, a recreational room with a billiards table, hire bikes, a spa. Every idiosyncrasy - the lemongrass scent of the bedroom, the lemon-infused drink upon arrival, the openness, nearby hikes to a bamboo forest, animal feeding, and the accomodating and smiling staff - just made our trip all the more special and memorable. Mr Antony, the manager, approached my partner and I personally and we welcomed an amicable morning conversation. I would recommend Melia Ba Vi to those seeking a calming retreat from the hustle and bustle of Hanoi and a visionary take on hotel sustainable design and excellent use of the natural surrounding landscape.

The property was in a dream location, so quiet and peaceful with its own lake! My room was lovely, the linen was top notch and I even had a free standing bath which I love! Not good if you wanted to be near town centre which I didn’t! And it was near the airport. The staff were absolutely amazing and treated me like the queen! They found me a massage bed for around the amazing pool and escorted me there with my fresh towel every morning! The pool was amazing and I had it to myself which was great!

The indoor pool although there were no changing rooms. The obstacle course after all the buses of school children had left late afternoon.
