Being in Hanoi, it is expected that one has to walk much. In fact, many attractions can be found around Hoan Kiem lake itself. However, what happens when one is just too tired to continue, and needs a break? Perhaps some nice food in air-conditioned comfort?
You can head down to Sofitel Legend Metropole Hanoi, where there’s a variety of food waiting for you! Whether it is an afternoon tea, chocolate buffet (we know!), or even just some simple comfort food, this hotel’s got it covered!
Located by the famous Hoan Kiem lake, there needs little introduction to this magnificent hotel. Open for guests since 1901, this hotel has seen history for over a hundred years. Among some of its famous guests include Hollywood stars like Charlie Chaplin and Jane Fonda, as well as politicians George H.W. Bush and Jacques Chirac!
The best part of this hotel is that they serve tasty food, and you get to enjoy your food in beautiful surroundings. The decor is classic yet modern enough, and you feel perfectly at ease while you take small bites at your food.

We enjoy afternoon teas, and we heard much about this hotel's Afternoon Tea sets. We knew we had to head over for a taste!
You can choose between their standard afternoon set, or a more adventurous chocolate buffet, which this hotel is famous for! FYI, this chocolate buffet happens in the afternoons between 3pm and 5.30pm!
We settled for the standard afternoon tea set, and the drinks soon came. We realised that their coffee is served Vietnamese-style, complete with a French drip filter!
The afternoon tea set for 2 has really generous portions. With an assortment of sweet selections, it can only get better! Savoury options include mini sandwiches and the evergreen scones. Of course, they are not gonna just indulge us in sinful pastries, cakes, and scones. There are also fruits served, so we can say we had a balanced meal! :)
At the end of it all, we were completely full, and satisfied!
