Can anyone recommend a good gym in hanoi?

Question

hi

i'm visiting hanoi for 7 days later this month and really want to visit a gym, around the old quarter, as much as possible during this time.

can anyone recommend a good gym in the area which allows casual visits?

thanks!

Answer 1

There's a real good gym not far from the Hanoi Towers. However I would recommend that you do as the Hanoians do while in Hanoi.

Get up before 5:00 AM and go to Hoan Kiem Lake. You will see what seems to be everyone in Hanoi walking around the lake and doing their morning exercise. You can go to a gym anytime, but you can experience exercising around Hoan Kiem Lake only around Hoan Kiem Lake. Oh, and it costs NOTHING to do so.

Have fun!

The best gyms are probably in the hotels, the Daewoo Hotel, the Hilton and the Sofitel Metropole have excellent facilities and are open to the public (for a fee).
