Why It Matters
TripAdvisor Traveler's Choice Best of the Best 2025 winner. Positioned as a full-service boutique in the heart of Hoan Kiem — rooftop pool, dedicated spa (Ve'hanoi), Vietnamese restaurant (May Tre Dan), and a rooftop cocktail bar (Botan Bar & Dine) all under one roof. Founded in 2022, it's already one of the more decorated newer hotels in Hanoi.
Meritel Hanoi is a 64-room boutique hotel on Hang Bong Street, one of the Old Quarter's most characterful addresses. The design mixes Indochine and Renaissance influences — warm woods, ambient lighting, generous beds. It opened in 2022 and has already earned TripAdvisor's Best of the Best 2025, plus a clutch of Haute Grandeur Awards. The rooftop pool, Botan Bar & Dine, an in-house spa, and May Tre Dan restaurant make it a genuine full-service stay, not just a place to sleep.
Where You'll Stay
9 room types available
Deluxe Double
Double bed version of the Deluxe tier. Richer finishes and more space than the Superior category, with the same full amenity set.
Deluxe Twin
Step-up twin configuration with elevated Indochine-Renaissance design. Exact size not published, but sits between Superior and Executive in the room hierarchy.
Executive Room
The Executive tier steps up materials and space. Good pick for business travelers or those wanting more room to spread out without going full suite.
Family Connecting Suite
Two connecting rooms designed for families traveling together. Accommodates multiple adults and children without the cramped feel of a single room. The go-to for family bookings.
Grand Terrace
The top room category at 50 m² — more than double the entry-level. A grand balcony opens directly onto city views over the Old Quarter roofline. The hotel's own description: wake up to Hanoi sky in a frame, end the day on the terrace with a glass of wine. Hard to argue with that.
Super King-sized bed · 50 sqmJunior Suite
The first suite tier — more generous space, more pronounced Indochine design elements. Suited to couples wanting a bit more room to breathe.
Meritel Suite
At 32 m², the Meritel Suite has a balcony with Old Quarter views. The hotel positions it specifically for couples on honeymoon or romantic getaways. Enchanting bedroom design with full suite amenities.
King-sized bed · 32 sqm
Old Quarter Suite
Named for its Old Quarter outlook. Balcony or window views of the surrounding streetscape — one of the more atmospheric options in the building.
Superior Double/Twin
The entry-level room at 24 m², located on quieter, well-ventilated floors. No window view, but the size feels genuinely comfortable for the category. Indochine design details carry through even here.
