H2HomestayOld Quarter automatic check inT3 Overview

You know what caught me off guard about H2HomestayOld Quarter? The automatic check-in actually works – and I mean, it really works. I was skeptical walking up to 42 Hàng Đào because, honestly, most “automatic” systems in the Old Quarter are hit or miss. But this place has it figured out. No fumbling with keys or waiting around for someone who speaks broken English. Just smooth, which is exactly what you want after a long flight into Noi Bai.

The location is pretty much perfect if you’re the type who wants to be in the thick of things. Hàng Đào street is one of those narrow Old Quarter lanes where motorbikes weave between tourists and locals hawking everything from bánh mì to knock-off North Face jackets. It sounds chaotic – and well, it sort of is – but that’s the whole point of staying here instead of some sterile business hotel in Ba Đình. You’re literally steps from Hoàn Kiếm Lake, and I actually timed it: three minutes to walk to the weekend night market on Friday evenings. The morning coffee scene is incredible too; there’s this tiny sidewalk café two doors down where locals squat on plastic stools at 6 AM, and the owner makes the strongest cà phê sữa đá I’ve had in Hanoi.

What surprised me most was how quiet it gets inside despite being on such a busy street. The windows must be decent quality because you can barely hear the motorbike symphony that starts around 5:30 AM (which, let’s be honest, you’re going to hear everywhere in this city anyway). The 4-star rating feels accurate – it’s not luxury by international standards, but everything works properly and feels clean. The WiFi is solid, which matters if you’re trying to upload photos or video call home. I mean, the space itself is compact, but that’s just Vietnam. You’re not coming here to hang out in your room anyway. One small thing: the stairs are pretty steep, so if you’ve got heavy bags or mobility issues, maybe ask about lower floors when you book. The automatic system is great, but it can’t carry your luggage up three flights.

Honestly, for the price point and that 8.5 rating, it delivers exactly what most travelers actually need in the Old Quarter. You’re paying for location and convenience, not a spa or room service. But when you can walk to Bún Chả Hương Liên (where Obama ate) in under ten minutes, and you’re surrounded by the best street food and coffee culture in Southeast Asia, who needs room service? Just don’t expect much storage space, and bring good earplugs if you’re sensitive to city sounds – even with decent windows, this is still central Hanoi.

Reviews of H2HomestayOld Quarter automatic check inT3

• Mathuuuu from Switzerland – 15 May 2025 (9/10)

  Vraiment incroyable ! Je vous recommande cet chambre d'hôte.
  Il y a 3 chambres de disponible, nous étions dans celle située tout en haut de l'immeuble.
  
  Il y avait beaucoup de places et tout ce qu'il faut pour être confortable. Il est même possible de faire sa lessive en demandant à la gérante.
  
  L'emplacement est proche de tout, le soir en sortant vous arrivez directement dans le marché de nuit.
  
  Info pratique : l'entrée de la ruelle se trouve à côté du magasin nomé "T-G Boutique" sur maps.
  
  What could be improved: Seul problème les toilettes du 2 et 3 ème étage sont communes, si vous êtes en haut ils vous faudra donc descendre et remonter les escaliers.

• Laurence from Cambodia – 17 April 2025 (8/10)

  L'emplacement central.
  L'équipement don't l'accès au lave-linge gratuitement.
  La propriétaire est très attentionnée, elle est même venue à 22h nous apporter des couvertures car il faisait froid.
  Globalement, un bon rapport qualité-prix pour Hanoi.
  
  What could be improved: L'immeuble est plutôt vétuste et mal isolé.
  Il y a confusion entre les étages. Nous avons été dérangés par d'autres clients qui cherchaient leur chambre au mauvais étage, dont une fois à 3h du matin. Il faudrait une meilleure signalisation.

• Joana from Portugal – 29 March 2025 (8/10)

  Perfect location, super central, felt pretty comfortable. You can do your own laundry for free!
  
  What could be improved: Nothing

• Sophie from United Kingdom – 20 March 2025 (8/10)

  Fantastic location, loved heading down the lane to the property, made us feel like a local. Big room, felt like a home for a bit. Was able to use washing machine.
  
  What could be improved: It was listed as private bathroom, but the toilet is downstairs. Good shower and sink by bedroom though (private use).

• Thomas from Vietnam – 8 March 2025 (9/10)

  Sehr gut ausgestattete Unterkunft.Sehr gute Lage. Mitten in Zentrum vom Alten Viertel gelegen.Der Night Market liegt genau vor der Tür.Aber da die Unterkunft in einer kleinen Gasse liegt ist es angenehm ruhig.Die Betreiberin der Unterkunft ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

• Cécile from France – 25 December 2024 (7/10)

  Chambre familiale très spacieuse avec deux grands lits double, un coin salon, un petit extérieur. Parfaitement équipée : bouilloire, vaisselle, sèche cheveux…
  La chambre n'était pas prête lorsque nous sommes arrivés à 17h mais la dame qui nous a accueillis a tout fait pour nous être agréable et rendre rapidement une chambre très propre et qui sentait bon.
  
  What could be improved: Il y a une salle de bain dans la chambre en revanche les toilettes sont partagées avec une autre chambre. Il faut monter deux étages un peu rude pour accéder à la chambre.

• Linh from Vietnam – 24 November 2024 (8/10)

  Chỗ nghỉ nằm tại trung tâm chợ đêm gần hồ Hoàn Kiếm rất tiện để đi chơi
  
  What could be improved: Mình ở tầng 3 là phòng dựng buổi tối tiếng cục nóng điều hoà ồn khó ngủ

• Wellmeyer from New Zealand – 14 August 2024 (7/10)

  Great location!
  
  What could be improved: Toilet sharing.

• Dario from Italy – 1 August 2024 (9/10)

  Staff molto attento, per motivi personali non hanno potuto esserci però mi hanno scritto un sacco di volte e tutte le volte che avevo bisogno di una informazione rispondevano immediatamente.
  Nella città vecchia a due passi dal lago.
  Stanza all'ultimo piano molto grande, con balconcino, doccia con lavandino in camera, e videoproiettore connesso al Wi-Fi!

• Nelly from France – 1 May 2024 (8/10)

  L’emplacement idéal, l’accueil et la facilitation pour notre arrivée très matinale et notre installation. La pression de l’eau sous la douche 🙂
  
  What could be improved: Rien, mais pas idéal pour une famille en voyage 11 mois
