One of the few true upscale properties in central Hanoi, Apricot Hotel stands out among its competitors. That's not only for its superb location -- within a 10-minute walk of shopping and close to Hoan Kiem Lake -- but also for its beautiful, classic style. The attention to detail is excellent, with classic artistic touches throughout the building. The 123 rooms feature large flat-screen TVs and free Wi-Fi, with some top-end rooms offering private terraces. Many have fantastic views over the lake and city, but it's worth noting that Sketch Rooms look only onto the interior courtyard. A rooftop pool is a nice addition and there's a spa, plus a rather small gym. A look at the Hotel de l'Opera Hanoi would be a worthwhile comparison, which is close to high-end shopping.
