Pampering Stay at Grand Mercure Hanoi

Straight out of Vietnam’s vibrant capital, here’s my take on the new Grand Mercure Hanoi experience — a modern hotel escape next door to history 🛎️✨ If you’re all about plush interiors and local charm, this place delivers. Rooms (opened 2023!) are good-sized with super comfy beds, all the extras (major shoutout to the bath salts — perfect after city wanderings). ⭐ The lounge on the 15th floor is a vibe: think afternoon tea, evening cocktails, and a killer city view for unwinding. Location-wise, you’re literally steps from the Temple of Literature (9 P. Cát Linh, Quốc Tử Giám) and only a 10-minute drive to Hanoi’s Old Quarters — so all the essential sights and eats are super easy to reach. Food here is a highlight: Breakfast gets big marks for its authentic variety (try their beef pho). The buffet spread is solid, with lots to crave before heading out to explore. My tip: If you’re sensitive to sound, ask for a room away from the road. Also, hotel checks the card you used for pre-payment if any. #thutravels #grandmercurehanoi #accor #hanoi
