Choosing

  • To swim or to cool down: rooftop pools in the centre are small (see hotels with a pool in Hanoi); a proper outdoor pool is more likely near West Lake (hotels around West Lake).
  • Children: I found no published child rate. Ask the age limit and whether an adult must stay beside them. See Hanoi with kids.
  • Season: from December to February unheated water is cool; summer is when a day pass pays off most (see Hanoi in summer).
  • Day pass or hotel night: at VND 650,000 per adult, a room in a hotel with a pool can be better value for two or three people: compare below.
