Rising over the rooftops of the Old Quarter, La Siesta’s original Hanoi hotel stands out from the crowd. This sophisticated, mid-city boutique hits the sweet spot with a delicate balance of homeliness and indulgence. Stepping in from the bustling street there’s an immediate sense of warmth, combined with a classically-understated elegance and contemporary finish - dark woods against bold black and white, with photo-ready pops of rich colour.
Certain distinctive details make it stand out: deep chairs and stylish coffee tables by wide windows carve out relaxing areas for gazing over the city; spiral staircases lead to cosy-yet-bright upper duplex rooms, ideal for a family stay; the sky bar transforms from a peaceful, late afternoon roof garden to an energetic night-time space. However you’re planning to spend your time in Hanoi, a stay at the La Siesta Classic Ma May is a chance to rebalance and recalibrate.
In a convenient spot in the heart of Hanoi’s Old Quarter, just a short walk from the picturesque banks of Hoan Kiem Lake and within easy reach of many of the city’s sights.
