With eight restaurants and bars, a spectacular spa and a prime location by Hoan Kiem Lake, Fairmont’s latest outpost brings polished charm to Hanoi’s French Quarter
Location
Nestled between the Old Quarter and French Quarter, Fairmont Hanoi is the luxury hotel group’s first property in Vietnam. The grand building with its colonial-style facade is a stone’s throw from the city’s government and diplomatic offices, many of which date back to the French era. Walk left, and you land in Hanoi’s bustling food markets and famous street food spots. Seek out Bún Cá Sâm Cây Si for its fried fish noodle soup.
