Hotel Nikko Hanoi
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 10/19/06
With its sleek and airy lobby affording a peek into a tiny Japanese garden, this 15-story hotel is a shining example of understated Japanese elegance. The rooms are both simple and luxurious, with light, understated wooden furniture and large closets. The corner suites have spacious bathrooms that overlook Lenin Park across the street. Superior and executive rooms are the same size, but the latter have more windows. Three restaurants serve Japanese, Chinese, or French food: the Chinese dining room does an excellent Sunday dim sum, and Restaurant Benkay has the most authentic -- and most expensive -- Japanese food in town.
