Hanoi Banana Hostel

It feels like you're sleeping on the stairs, trye hostel has no privacy but this one is a big no.

i booked two days prior but when I arrived there they told me it's booked out and there is a problem with the system. they told me they will cancel the booking so I can get my money back, guess what, they never did. they also told me, that there should be a email that said, they are booked out, guess what, there wasn't. when I ask them for the email they couldn't show it to me. I feel scammed and can't recommend going there, they might just take your money..

The receptionist when I checked in was so nice and helpful and everything seemed great for my stay. However when I came back later during the night I noticed bedbugs, and the night staff did not handle it very well. He used some insect spray and expected me to sleep in the same bed. Told them that I wanted to check out and didn’t get offered any kind of compensation, and ended up paying for my entire stay.

Modern and clean but not the most practical hostel - triple bunks are uncomfortable and the female only section isn’t particularly private as it’s open plan on the first floor, so everyone walks through it. The bathroom is also quite open and feels like it needs a curtain or additional door on the outside as you can sort of see people taking showers (albeit, blurred out) and the space in the shower is very small.

The place was dirty, showers and toilet so small with odd smell

Receptionist cortesi e disponibili. Gli alloggi lasciano desiderare più che altro perché avevamo i letti proprio sulle scale quindi non sapevamo dove cambiarci e un po troppo nel mezzo del passaggio. Bagno minuscolo. Noi eravamo dormitorio solo donne. Pulizia normale, letti grandi. Per il prezzo direi che ci sta

The architecture of the building is not the best. No proper doors for the dorms, so its always super loud unfortunately. Also the privacy in the bathroom/shower could be better. But the reception girls are amazing and are doing a great job!

No hot water and the water stopped running in the morning

Beds are nice an big but the bathrooms stinks so bad. i only stayed for 1 night so i can’t rate the social aspect but i think it was pretty quiet.

Het hostel was enorm goor en je moest een heel vies steegje door om er te komen. Hier liepen ook ratten. De douches waren klein en zaten vol schimmel. Er hingen camera's in de slaapkamer, dus je moest goed opletten dat je handdoek niet per ongeluk afviel. De bedden lagen lekker en waren heel breed, maar het was bijna onmogelijk om erop te komen zonder je te bezeren.

Very lovely hostel, alot of stairs but super comfy beds and clean bathrooms. right near the centre near beer street

We stayed for a night before a flight which was good and lower cost compared to other options. Beds comfy and it’s clean, people who work there are so lovely. However, there’s not much privacy, triple bunks, so I wouldn’t recommend staying for a longer period of time because of that!

Very good location and staff is really nice and helpful!

Lady at reception was the kindest person ever, felt straight at home!

Amazing location and staff!

good but abit bad if elderly alot of stairs for luggage and no elevator

The staff were really nice and the bed clean. Nothing bad to say, this is a 10 !

Very lovely homestay, very clean comfy beds lovely facilities and lovely lady helped us with a lot of things !

Perfect place to stay in the wonderful old quarter. Comfortable, clean, safe and friendly. The staff are superb. I will return to this hostel whenever I’m in Hanoi again in the future :)

I loved my stay there, felt really comfortable. Everything was super clean, fresh bed sheets and a nice chill area with free coffee and tea, also the staff was really kind and helpful. They also offer different trips, I also booked the Ha Giang Loop there:)

It was a really nice hostel for our first stay on our trip. First of all, the two girls from the staff were really nice! Second of all, we felt really safe in our hostel. We often had our bag with our important things where our wallet, our documents and so on on our bed while we were on the balcony downstairs and no one stole anything. The hostel is in a corner in the near from the street, so it was not so loud, that was perfect! But it it’s not a hostel to make connections, everybody is deal...

Ruhig gelegen im Hinterhof, offenes Raumkonzept, schön eingerichtet, freundliches Personal

For the price of this hostel you can’t really complain! The lady at the front desk was so friendly and helpful to us throughout our whole stay. We checked in in the middle of the night which was very easy. The beds are thin but big, comfortable and private. Plenty of bathrooms and showers throughout the building. It is quite noisy due to the open plan of the hostel and blinds on bed knocking on metal but nothing a pair of ear plugs can’t solve. Highly recommend.

Perfect stay here. The atmosphere and vibes are great, staff couldn’t be lovelier and it’s located right in the centre of the old town. You have to go down a small alley, but once you get there the place is clean, cool and welcoming. Can recommend!

good location, worth the price only thing i didn’t like, there is no door for the dorm

Un hostel au coeur du vieux quartier de Hanoi, très confortable avec deux terraces tres agréable où on peut se reposer! Personnel adorable prêt à vous aider à tout moment, je recommande cet hostel!

For me it was the best hostel I have stayed at so far. Not because it is more luxurious than other hostels but because of the feeling of a home when staying there. It feels that way because there are no doors except for the bathrooms of course and there are rooms like a nice kitchen or a balcony where you can sit comfortably and socialize. The hostel is definitely clean and you do not hear anything from the noise outside even though the hostel is very central
