The Best Hotels and Resorts in Asia: The Gold List 2025
"A dazzling destination that flashes back beautifully to a bygone age, Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi has been a fixture in the heart of the Vietnamese capital since 1901. Behind its classical white façade, two buildings—the original and recently renovated Heritage Wing and the neoclassical Opera Wing, named for its proximity to the Hanoi Opera House—envelop a serene courtyard garden and sparkling pool flanked by a bar. The historic suites, named after famous former guests, including Charlie Chaplin and novelist Graham Greene, exude a sense of old-world grandeur, while its peaceful French Quarter locale makes it a no-brainer when planning a trip to Hanoi. From $330. —Keri Bridgwater" - CNT Editors
