    Title: Great family experience in the heart of Hanoi

    My children wanted more family-oriented activities at the hostel.

    Great location, close to local stalls and attractions. Affordable price for a hostel that functions like a hotel. The bar manager was welcoming and friendly, and the nights at the bar were enjoyable with cheap drinks and great food. The Rooftop Bar supervisor made my stay heartwarming and felt like a family member instead of a guest.

    None! There was nothing to not like about this hostel.

    We took part in the Halong Hideaway cruise, which provided us with unforgettable experiences that we wouldn't have gotten elsewhere. Exploring the real local Thai traditional Stilt House and cycling to visit villages of the Thai Ethnic Minority allowed us to immerse ourselves in their daily lives and culture. The hostel's location near Hoan Kiem Lake was fantastic, as it provided a popular hangout spot for both locals and tourists throughout the day.

    My kids wished for more child-friendly activities in the hostel.

    Great atmosphere for solo travellers, met people quickly and enjoyed the organized hostel activities. The rooms are air-conditioned with ensuites, privacy curtains, power outlets, and a light. The location is amazing with attractions, bars, and shops nearby. The hostel tour desk is helpful for setting up tours and day trips. The rooftop has a nice view of Hanoi and the free breakfast is super tasty! I had a fun and comfortable stay at Central Backpackers. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a fun and safe environment to explore the city.

    I stayed at Hanoi Central Backpackers for a few days to book tours and explore. The staff at the front desk, especially Miss. Snow, were professional and friendly. The tour packages offered were reasonably priced and enjoyable. The rooms and washrooms were clean and tidy, and the beds were super comfortable. The hotel provided locker facilities and lobby access even after checkout, which was a great convenience. me and my friends were very happy with our stay and the excellent service provided by the staff.

    We had an awesome stay at this hostel! The staff was incredibly helpful and always available to assist with our needs. They even cleaned our room everyday, keeping everything tidy. The hostel is centrally located in the heart of the old town, making it convenient to explore the area by foot. We loved the fact that the rooms had their own bathrooms, which made things so much easier. The hostel also had spacious dorms with big lockers, ensuring that our belongings were secure. The free breakfast was super delicious and we enjoyed the free beer from 7-8PM. The rooftop view was also nice and the young staff members spoke English well.

    No negatives from this place, everything was great!

    central backpackers was a fun, social hostel where I made great friends. The staff was helpful and the free breakfast was abundant. The location was perfect for exploring.

    Plug points were inconvenient.

    We had a blast exploring the old town and chilling by Hoan Kiem Lake. The rooftop Jacuzzis and sundeck were perfect for some pre-party relaxation with a cold beer. And speaking of parties, the sunset party at the Halong Hideaway cruise was off the chain! We made so many new friends and had some unbelievable experiences that will stay with us forever.

    The only thing we wished for was a bigger dance floor at the hostel's party area. The vibe was electric and the music was fire, but we just wanted more space to show off our moves and get down with our new friends.

    The value for money at Central Backpackers was excellent. The room was spacious and tidy, with its own bathroom and big lockers. The staff were incredibly helpful, assisting with tour bookings and providing great advice. The free breakfast was delicious and the included activities like pub crawls and walking tours were a bonus.

    Breakfast offerings could be improved to include a wider variety of options.

    I had the most amazing experience at Central Backpackers! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with warmth and hospitality. The location is perfect, right in the heart of the city, making it easy to explore. The rooms were clean and comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. The rooftop bar offered stunning views and the complimentary drinks from 7-8pm were a nice touch. The staff, especially Zo at the reception, were incredibly helpful and provided great recommendations. I felt welcomed and taken care of throughout my stay. I highly recommend Central Backpackers for a fantastic stay in Hanoi.
