We checked into Prince 79 Hotel after being subjected to threats of physical violence whilst staying at the Rainbow Hotel (Hoan Kiem Grand Hotel) after we asked when the water would be back on in our room as we had no water since we checked in 24 hours earlier and had told reception that morning. The hotel staff were so... More

We stayed for two and a half weeks in this hotel. The rooms are reasonable for the price you pay. There are a range of rooms with different prices to look at as well. Great location, very convenient for exploring the old quarter. What really makes this hotel is the incredibly friendly staff who are really helpful and make you... More

My husband and I were supposed to stay here for 9 nights, however we only stayed 2. When we first got there we were put into a room with black walls from the amount of mold and damp, so we complained and they moved us to a slightly better room with less mold. On the second night we woke to... More

The staff makes you feel very welcome and they create the relaxing atmosphere of the hotel. Things work and there is no cheating on prices or something like that. You can book tours and you get information about Vietnam and places to visit easily. There is a computer with internet connection at the lobby, which is very useful. Rooms are... More

We found Prince 79 on hostelbookers and after the predictably garish bus journey from Vientiane were greeted by the friendliest staff that we've encountered throughout our entire south-east Asian tour. They are all extremely informative and helpful and each of them knew our names. To top it off, we had the most comfortable bed we've slept in since home. Great... More

We booked this hotel for 2 nights over internet, but when we arrived, we discovered it in really poor shape. Smell of fungus everywhere, paint falling off, damp bed linen and cracking floors and doors... The rooms are dark and smelly. The pictures shown here must be from some other hotel, no way can they be from Prince 79! We... More

Manager and staff were very helpful, waking up at 3am to let us in after returning late from a tour.. Rooms were great for the price and location was perfect. Great for backpackers wanting a break from a busy hostel. Would recommend and will stay again

The manager of this hotel and other people who work here are very very friendly and helpfull although the hotel is very old and needs a renovation! I think they did not clean the sheets. The rooms were a little dirty... And the breakfast was very very poor. If you want something new and clean about the same price please... More

We stayed three nights in this hotel a good place to explore the city. Clean rooms, at the front with a balcony, breakfast simple but sufficient, airport taxi service to perfect, a rental space for your luggage and you can still use to shower. A nice hotel for backpackers in the heart of the old town. greeting Fam. Slingerland (Holland)
