    Fantastic compilation.. I am very fond of old quarter area , best for shopping but yes for families with a relaxing stay i believe west Lake side is ideal

    Tip for crossing street in Vietnam:
    Many tourist foreigners scared of traffic in VN . Don’t worry about it! The rule to win this fear is keep routin slowly walking when you across the streams of motobike! motor-bykers knows how to avoid you themself in chaos-order! remmember do not runs and stop suddently , accident immidiatly ! Don’t be affraid off and do it if you want to be safety in the crazy- traffic in Vietnam.

    I'm a bit late and will be moving back to Hanoi soon, but wanted to say...DAMN! You're good-looking. :) That's all. Have a good day. I'm also a world-traveling woman from Chicago. Take care

    Thank you for sharing your insights on where to stay in Hanoi. I look forward to visiting Vietnam one day. I'd like to stay in the Old Quarter with my family and I paid attention to your comment on the noise. Any advice on how to determine if the hotel is on a quieter street?

    • @StefanoFerro
      @StefanoFerro  Před 3 lety +2

      The hotel i suggested in my post is very quiet. I had a fantastic stay.
      Generally speaking, avoid the main streets and try booking in a small lane, preferably with no car access..
      I hope i was able to help and hopefully you will be able to visit Vietnam sooner rather than later
      Cheers

    Hi Stef, Great advise on where to stay in Hanoi, Your last location you did not say where it was ????. You walked down beside some Cathedral but you did not say what area you were in ???. Max. Australia.

      Hey Max, it's in the Old Centre but well hidden. This is the exact location of the street on Google Maps maps.app.goo.gl/N6xFePEZzNzTjfDC8 . Enjoy Vietnam!!

    the Hanoi hotel recommended in this video 'the impressive hotel' no longer exists, it's been taken over and looks a bit different but I guess it's still a good location, don't know if it provides good service..

    • @StefanoFerro
      @StefanoFerro  Před rokem

      Thanks for the update. Do you know if Michael, the manager, is still there? Such a pity. Hopefully they will keep providing the great service that used to be

    how long it takes to walk completely in Old Quarter?

    • @StefanoFerro
      @StefanoFerro  Před 2 lety +1

      Hard to say. It really depends on your pace, what you are interested in, do you like making photos/videos and therefore stop and frame etc etc. I would say anything between 3-4 hours and 3 days (I am more into the 3 days LOL)
