Why Your 2026 Hanoi Adventure Starts with Little Charm Hostel

Hanoi, 2026. The city is buzzing, the incense is burning at the ancient temples, and the scent of street food is wafting through every alleyway. If you’ve just checked into Little Charm Hostel, welcome to the family! You’re probably wondering: “Where do I even start?”

The answer is simple: Follow Quin.

More Than Just a Map

We get it. You’ve seen the “Top 10 Things to Do in Hanoi” lists. But browsing a screen is nothing like navigating the chaotic, beautiful maze of the Old Quarter with a local friend who knows every heartbeat of these streets. That’s where Quin, our legendary walking tour guide, comes in.

At Little Charm, we believe that traveling isn’t just about seeing places; it’s about the energy of the people you meet. Quin isn’t just a guide; she’s the bridge between you and the “real” Hanoi.

1. The Route: From Ancient Gates to Train Tracks

Our walking tour isn’t a history lecture—it’s a vibrant stroll through the living history of Vietnam. Here’s a sneak peek of what a morning with Quin looks like:

• The Classics: We’ll dive into the hustle of Dong Xuan Market and find peace at Bach Ma Temple, one of the city’s oldest and most sacred sites.

• The “Gram” Spots: Yes, we’re taking you to the famous Train Street. Quin knows the exact timing to catch that perfect shot while sipping on a robust Vietnamese coffee.

• The Secret Eats: This is where it gets delicious. Forget the tourist traps. We’re stopping for Banh Chung Ran (crispy fried sticky rice) on a street corner and finishing off with a bowl of traditional sweet soup (Che) that tastes like a hug in a bowl.

2. Your Basecamp in the Old Quarter

Why do backpackers keep coming back to Little Charm Hostel? Because we know that after a long day of exploring, you need more than just a bed. You need a place with a soul.

Whether you’re chilling by our indoor pool, sharing stories in the common area, or joining Quin’s tour to meet your next travel buddy, we make sure you feel at home. Our “Female-only Dorms” and cozy bunks are designed for the modern traveler who values both community and comfort.
