It had the beautiful lake view as seen in the photos! The room was cozy and the inside looked like a brand new interior - everything was clean and neat. A/C was great as well. In a walking distance, there were several cafes where I enjoyed Vietnamese black coffee, having a seat with the lake view. If you like to stay in a quiet and cozy area with a lake view, iRest Orange'd be your best choice. In addition, the hotel provides with taxi service between the hotel and the airport, which is more convenient and cheaper than other taxi services.

Since it has some distance from Hoan Kiem and other travel spots, I had to use Grab whenever I went to somewhere else. But it was easy to have a Grab driver from the hotel.

This was the cheapest place we stayed at during our trip in Vietnam, but it was also the biggest room and the nicest room we stayed at. Very clean, beautiful decor, very spacious, great appliances. If I had known beforehand I would have stayed here longer! The pictures do not do it justice!

If they added some hand towels for the bathroom, it would be perfect! Other than that: Great

Beautiful decor, just like the pictures. Nice lighting. Very quiet in the night, as it's tucked away from the main street. A lot of cafes and eateries nearby. Washing machine was great, they sell detergent at the reception. The city view was pretty decent, you can see a small part of the lake (from the room on 7th floor). Good kitchen supplies, we were able to cook for a few days, mostly boiled stuff (non-stick pan was not there) and salads. No mold smell, good water pressure. Highly recommend!

-There was a misunderstanding about the price of the motorbike we rented from them, we spoke on the phone and didn't have written confirmation, so ended up paying much more than expected. This could have been avoided by paying in advance and not at the end of the 6 days. (Or get the price in written) -The bathroom is a bit older and less fancy compared to the rest of the apartment, it could use some tlc, but everything functioned properly. -The main gate closes at 11 pm so you need to ring the bell and the security man will open it for you. Not a huge issue, but he was not very happy to wake up from his sleep at 11:30 to open the gate for us. He was mumbling something in Vietnamese...

The room was exactly as described and depicted by the pictures. That's why I didn't bother to take any of my own to post here. Staff and security were very friendly, helpful and nice. They helped arrange taxi pick up from airport, restaurant reservations, et al. It's everything you would expect from a property.

There's isn't anything to dislike aside from the fact that it is very far from the old and french quarters. It's a great retreat from the hustle and bustle of the tourist attractions.

The apartment was equipped with everything we needed. All electrical appliances working. It was very clean and the view from the balcony was beautiful. We used the washing machine and dryer available. It was our little home away from home. It made our stay in Hanoi pleasurable. We arrived late at the apartment, but were most accomodating about check in process. They most flexible to suit our needs. They also organised a reliable taxi service to pick us up from and to the airport The receptionist was extremely helpful. I wish I could remember her name, she was amazing. Written communication was prompt. We highly recommend this apartment.

Nothing, everything was lovely.

The rooms were very spacious and very clean! Incredible rates that were very affordable. Vietnam can be non stop even through the night but where this place is located it was very quiet at night. Rooms either had a great view and or the others were a little more spacious with a washer in the unit with dryers right outside the door. They had the nicest staff who helped out so much and were very accommodating. I was there for a friends wedding and the front desk girl even helped us load the car and called us cabs to get to the venue when our rides fell through. Definitely going back and staying there again!

Only thing, was on the last couple days there was a dog outside that barked a bit in the morning but it was out of their control, probably just a neighborhood dog. Honestly nothing to complain about. For how loud some of those streets in the city can get it was still a great experience.

Front desk Ms. Van is extremely cheerful, helpful, and understanding. She can communicate well in English. The security guy is also friendly and kind. This apartment is super clean and quiet but near to all kinds of amenities. The apartment is well equipped with washing machines, fridge, cooking facilities, and utensils. The aircon are both working fine and cold enough. I am happy staying in rooms 702 and 502. Ms. Van helped me to rent a motorcycle at an offer price, appreciated.

The water pressure in room 701 doesn't seem high enough. This may need a plumber to check if the pipe was blocked or if the pump is not sufficient. The rest are super fine.

One of the most the well thought of from a features and decor point of view places I have ever stayed at. This place is fantastic if you want something away from the noise of Old Quarter but still want to get to it. I highly recommend taking a Lake View apartment since the view is stellar. Also great is the facilities, Washing machine / Dryer on every floor, Netflix on the TVs, Most appliances you would need for a longer stay. VERY Highly recommend if looking for a quiet place in Hanoi.

Not really a con but something to be wary of, finding cabs take a few minutes more than it does in Old Quarter but really something that didn't bother us. And unlike Old Quarter places to eat are a little bit of a walk away.

iRest orange hosts beautiful apartments. They have lovely decor and are very spacious. Provided everything we would need for a relaxing stay. The bed was very comfy too! The receptionist was very kind & helpful in all of our requests and the security man was also very friendly.

It is a bit far out from the centre of Hanoi so we did end up getting taxis in quite often, however it is beautifully situated on the lake & is a very quiet area so can also be viewed as a positive!

This place is an absolute must if you are interested in self-contained accommodation in Hà Nội. The apartment is quite private and extremely spacious. The bedroom is separate to the living/dining area (the bathroom is also separate) and the balcony is via the bedroom. There are two Airconditioners, one in the bedroom and one in the living area. The living dining area has a water filter (great for saving money on bottled water) and there is also a full-size fridge/freezer. Everything is very clean/tidy and it has all the ammenities that you need - plus the views are amazing! (The washer & dryer are on an outside balcony just by the lift and shared by the one other apartment on your level). The hosts are very friendly, easy to communicate with and can also arrange airport transfers. There are plenty of food/coffee/juice options nearby - there is also a Mart two minutes walk away (friendly owners) which stocks many everyday supplies, including fruit/vegetables, cheese, yoghurt and frozen food. It’s also only a short walk into the bustling Old Quarter.
