West Lake

Beautiful pagoda in Hanoi... possible to walk but recommend to have a motorbike take you as it’s just outside of the main city area and easy to rent or hail someone to take you. Worth the views!

I had such an amazing stay at the Splendid Secret Hotel! Everything was top-notch. • Room Service & Cleanliness: The room was spotless, super comfortable, and felt like a true retreat. • Breakfast: The buffet was excellent—huge variety, delicious food, and a great start to the day. • Staff & Tour Planning: The staff team was wonderful, especially Ding Dong! Ding Dong was incredibly helpful, professional, and went above and beyond to assist me. • Ha Long Bay Tour: I booked the Ha Long tour through the hotel, and thanks to Ding Dong's seamless organization, the whole trip was smooth and unforgettable. Highly recommend Splendid Secret! It truly offers a five-star experience with exceptional staff like Ding Dong.
