West Lake, or Hồ Tây, is Hanoi's largest freshwater lake, surrounded by the expat-friendly Tay Ho district. It offers a tranquil escape from the city's bustle with scenic walks, lakeside cafes, and a more residential feel, ideal for slow travelers.
What creators say
Stay in the Tay Ho area around West Lake for a quieter, more residential experience with space to walk and explore, while still being close to Old Town.
In their own words: “We lived in the Westlake neighborhood, explored Old Town... For our 22 days in Hanoi, we stayed on Westlake in the Tay Ho neighborhood. We chose Tay Ho intentionally. It's quieter than Old Town, more residential, and felt like a place where we could actually live for a few weeks instead of just visit.”
Enjoy a stroll or bike ride around West Lake, a prominent natural landmark in Hanoi, often surrounded by popular eateries and cafes.
In their own words: “and this shop is very close to the West Lake and I can see a lot of foreigner, travelers, customer they come here”
