Lion King Hotel
Description
Robert and Flower run this small hotel like it’s their home – because it basically is. Guests get welcomed with bánh mì on arrival and sent off with mung bean cakes, which tells you everything about the hospitality philosophy here. The kind of place where the owner will personally courier your forgotten belongings to your next hotel.
Rooms are clean, comfortable, and not fancy – think solid mid-range Vietnamese hotel rather than boutique resort (photos may oversell them slightly, fair warning). The pool is a genuine bonus after a long morning walking the old town in the heat.
Location sits just at the edge of the Ancient Town – quiet enough to sleep, close enough to walk everywhere that matters in under ten minutes.
