5-star historic luxury hotel in central Hanoi since 1901

Accommodation & History

Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi has been a landmark hotel since 1901 and is the first Sofitel Legend in the world. The hotel has two distinct wings: the Heritage Wing (dating back to 1901) and the neo-classical Opera Wing. Guests in Grand Premium rooms, Grand Luxury rooms, and suites receive Club Metropole benefits or Heritage Wing privileges, which include 24-hour Majordome butler service.

Dining & Bars

The hotel offers six restaurants and bars: Le Beaulieu for contemporary French fine-dining, Spice Garden for elevated Vietnamese cuisine, and angelina for world-class beverages with comfort food. La Terrasse provides Parisian-inspired al fresco dining, while the Bamboo Bar serves drinks in an Indochine-style setting by the pool. Le Club Bar is known for its signature Metropole brasserie food and iconic high tea service.

Spa & Wellness

Le Spa du Metropole offers rejuvenating treatments combining Eastern and Western wellness traditions. The hotel has a heated outdoor swimming pool, a well-equipped SoFIT fitness center, and a spa lounge with relaxation areas. Sun loungers, pool towels, and sun umbrellas are available around the pool, and the pool bar serves drinks and light meals.

Location & Experiences

The hotel is located in Hanoi's historical quarter, adjacent to the Old Quarter and walking distance to Hoan Kiem Lake, the Hanoi Opera House, and St. Joseph's Cathedral. Noi Bai Airport is 35 km away. A distinctive highlight is the Path of History & Bomb Shelter Tour, led by resident historians, which reveals hidden chapters of the hotel's past and its role during the Vietnam War.

Services & Recognition

The hotel holds a Forbes Travel Guide 5-Star Rating and was listed on the MICHELIN Selected List in 2024. Event spaces include the stately Thang Long Hall for business and social gatherings, and all meeting and banquet facilities are available. Guest services include a 24-hour front desk, concierge, currency exchange, airport shuttle, laundry, dry cleaning, and a luxury gift shop (La Boutique) and gourmet deli (L'Epicerie).

“Staying here feels like stepping back into a more glamorous era, a feeling amplified by its rich history and prime location near Hoan Kiem Lake. The standout features include the award-winning French cuisine and tours of the hotel's historical bomb shelter; for me, it's a place where luxury meets legacy. I believe it's the kind of hotel stay that becomes a cherished memory, more than just a place to sleep.”
