Directions

Hanoi Main Train Station (approx 0.5 km SW) servicing north south. Gia Lam Bus Terminal (Hanoi) (approx. 2.0 km NE). Giap Bat Bus Terminal (Hanoi) (approx. 10 km SW).Taxi/Van service to and from the airport price range: $ 12 - 14 USD. In Hanoi be careful with Motorbike, Taxi, and Van drivers. They sometimes play a little game with the tourists: asking you to wait at the vehicle while they check the hotel for you. If they report no vacancies upon return, don't believe them--they want the hotel to pay a them a commission for bringing them a guest!
