Be energised by the old-meets-new environment at The Chi Hotel

The name Chi – which translates loosely as “life energy” – gives some idea of what to expect from one of the Hanoi’s newest accommodation option. 

A blend of old-fashioned and contemporary styles create a traditional Chinese feel in this modern boutique hotel: dark wood furniture, modern lantern, artworks of lotus leaves and a dim sum restaurant. 

The hotel offers remarkable value right in the heart of the Old Quarter.

Rooms here are minimal and uncluttered. This is my preferred style – with nothing to distract from the function of the room. Premium materials are used from the bed frame to the bathroom counter, a sure sign that the hotel is uncompromising in its quality.
