Hotel de l'Opera Hanoi - MGallery Collection opened in 2011 on Trang Tien Street, a few hundred metres from both Hoan Kiem Lake and the Hanoi Opera House, in the heart of the city's French Quarter. The 107 rooms are dramatically decorated with slick wooden floors, jewel-toned furniture, and black marble-print wallpaper, drawing on 19th-century French design inspiration, alongside an indoor pool and fitness facilities. The hotel was voted Hanoi's No. 1 hotel by Travel + Leisure in 2024 and No. 2 in 2025, with guests consistently praising the warm, professional bellhop and front-desk staff and the central location, though a May-August 2025 renovation brought temporary noise and light disturbances for some guests during that window.
