Overview

This stunning, totally original boutique library-hotel is tucked away in a quiet neighbourhood just off Nguyen Van Troi street. This convenient location allows guests to get away from the bustling city life, yet both the city centre and the airport are within 15 minutes by taxi. The hotel's extensive library lives up to its name, offering timeless style and elegant architecture with many places to relax with a book on a rainy day. Rooms are cosy and inviting with soft lighting and modern amenities including an en suite bathroom with rain shower, LCD cable television, air-conditioning and complimentary Wi-Fi. Guests can enjoy a delicious complimentary breakfast as well as tea and coffee delivered to the room, and the top-floor American restaurant serves burgers, steaks and fresh salads. This is the perfect place for couples looking for a romantic retreat as well as business travellers seeking to unwind after a busy day.
