Sofitel Legend Metropole Hotel

The French colonial-style building now occupied by Sofitel Legend Metropole Hotel has stood proudly in the heart of Hanoi since 1901 and boasts a rich history and a century long tradition of welcoming ambassadors, writers, heads of state and entrepreneurs.

There is a choice of two wings at Sofitel Legend Metropole – the older Metropole Wing and the more modern Opera Wing.

The Sofitel Legend's location, just a block from Hoan Kiem Lake is such that restaurants, shops, cafes and Hanoi's historic Old Quarter are all within easy walking distance.

Premium Rooms in the Opera Wing offer neo-classical elegance with dark timber floors and modern features whilst rooms in the Metropole Wing retain a historic grandeur.

La Beaulieu restaurant offers the best French cuisine in town whilst Spices Garden Restaurant offers the best of Vietnamese cuisine.

The Sofitel is a classy hotel with lots of facilities including an outdoor swimming pool, fitness centre and spa.

What's so Special?

We love the Sofitel Legend's Metropole Wing which has a really historic feel to it, from the ceiling fans right down to the slightly creaky, dark teakwood floorboards.

The Sofitel Legend Metropole is Hanoi’s premier address and one of the most atmospheric luxury hotels in Vietnam.

Bear in Mind

The Sofitel Legend is a large hotel - there are over 350 rooms but has a boutique ethos.

Rooms in the Sofitel are split between two wings, the newer Opera Wing and the older historic Metropole Wing.

Premium Rooms (32 sq. m) in the Opera Wing offer neo-classical elegance with dark timber floors and modern features like huge LCD TV’s.

What kind of holidays do you do?

All of our holidays are private tailor made holidays, whether its a simple city and beach holiday or a longer tour of Vietnam or Indochina.

Each trip is customised for you - we can amend things to entirely suit you; your budget, your pace, your interests.

You will have your own private car, driver and guide on excursions and we normally include airport transfers by private car.

On excursions you'll have an experienced English speaking guide who will be able to give you personal insights into your destination.

What are the departure dates?

Let us know your preferred dates of travel and we will find the best and most suitable flights to fit your itinerary.

We will also advise you of the best times to travel if required.

Which Airlines do you use?

We work with all the major airlines flying to this part of the world.

Typically for Vietnam, Vietnam Airlines, Thai Airways, Singapore Airlines, Emirates, Qatar Airways or Cathay Pacific would be airlines we most often use.

However, just let us know your preferred airline if you have one. We can organise flights from any regional destination in the UK.

Vietnam Airlines fly directly to both Hanoi and Saigon from Heathrow.

Which Hotels do you use?

We're careful with our choice of hotels, but we're guided by our customers also. If you have some preferred hotels, just let us know.

We specialise in boutique hotels and so we will often suggest some of our favourite smaller hotels where we think these will be suitable.

We try to choose hotels with character, value and something special about them - which fit your budget.

We keep on top of hotel developments in Indochina from our office in Vietnam and regularly inspect the hotels we use.

Do you cater for Solo Travellers and families?

Yes, we have many solo travellers, and Vietnam is a very safe, friendly and welcoming destinations for those travelling alone.

River cruises on the Mekong are a popular option for solo travellers, especially with Pandaw Cruises who offer no Single Supplements on many departures.

Vietnam has plenty to offer families, whether it's exploring the Cu Chi Tunnels, cycling around Mekong Delta villages, enjoying a Water Puppet Show in Hanoi or sampling exotic Vietnamese food.

What about Honeymoons and Anniversaries?

Vietnam is great for honeymooners - especially those looking for a more active honeymoon or to combine some touring with relaxation.

There are plenty of options to add a bit of romance to your travel in Vietnam.

Cruise on a boutique Junk through beautiful Halong Bay, indulge in a private pool villa with all spa treatments included, enjoy drinks at a rooftop bar in Saigon and take a private overnight Sampan cruise through the Mekong Delta.

How long have you been organising holidays to Indochina?

We've been organising tailor made holidays to Vietnam for over 10 years.

Our team has a wealth of combined experience in the industry and our Director has been involved in organising holidays to Vietnam since the early 1990's.

Our partners on the ground in Indochina have over 20 years experience in operating there.

They understand the region extremely well and have a strong infrastructure of staff, guides and vehicles.

We've had the same partnership in Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos for over 10 years.

How does your office in Vietnam help?

We have our own staff in Saigon which helps in many ways with our customers in Vietnam and South East Asia.

It helps us to keep on top of any new hotel and travel developments in the region and forge stronger relationships with hotels and other partners.

We regularly do our own inspections of hotels and destinations in the region.

Should our clients need any assistance during a trip, we always have at least one of our own staff on the same time zone, and we're open 7 days a week in Saigon.
