Built-in 1901 by French, the Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi is the oldest and probably the most famous hotel in Vietnam which survived the wartime and remains intact. The reputation of the hotel is mainly due to its roles in history. In the first half of the XX century, the hotel became “the rendezvous point for colonial society”; then after the 1950s, the new national government opted to maintain it as the official hotel for visiting VIP. During and after the war years, it became a base for press and diplomats.

Heavily styled with French architecture, Sofitel Legend Metropole pleases the eye with classical white façade and green shutters. The most iconic place of the hotel must be La Terrasse café and restaurant set on a stone pavement on the first floor, outside of the building. With 364 rooms and suites, the hotel also aims to give the best price along with the best room quality. Extra facilities are various and interesting including La Boutique Du Metropole – the gift shop, L’Epicerie Du Metropole – the grocery store, Metropole Cooking Class, and luxury Limousine Service.

Another thing that makes the hotel worth your while is the bomb shelter just opened to publicity recently. This is the place where many politicians and celebrities stayed during US bomb raids.
