Dolce By Wyndham Hanoi Golden Lake Hotel - I Slept in a 24K GOLD Hotel 🇻🇳 | You Won’t Believe This! 🤯 “Am I in a hotel… or inside a gold bar?” That was my first thought. Look, I’ve stayed in everything from hammocks in the jungle to five-star suites with champagne on arrival. But nothing—and I mean nothing—prepared me for the Dolce By Wyndham Hanoi Golden Lake, aka Vietnam’s infamous 24 Karat Gold Hotel. Yes, it’s real. Yes, it’s exactly as bonkers as it sounds. And yes, I absolutely had to see what a gold-plated hotel was like—because who wouldn’t want to sleep like a Bond villain? Get my free travel tips and hacks guide here https://paradiseadventures.live/southeast-asia-travel-tips-and-hacks-free-guide/ Welcome to Bling Central From the outside, the Hanoi Golden Lake Hotel gleams like it’s been dipped in honey and polished with diamonds. It’s a bold, unashamed statement in a sea of traditional buildings—like someone told a billionaire architect, “Make it shiny,” and they took it very, very personally. I walked up the steps feeling underdressed. My shirt wasn’t even gold-threaded—how embarrassing. A doorman in a crisp white suit opened the door and boom… GOLD. Everywhere. The lobby sparkled. The chandeliers sparkled. Even the columns? Gold. I blinked twice, trying to figure out if my eyeballs were malfunctioning or if this was just the future of luxury.

Like, imagine pushing a floor number and hearing a little ka-ching sound. Okay, that didn’t happen—but it felt like it could have. Each ride in that golden lift felt like I was being delivered to the penthouse of Mount Olympus. The Room: Golden Goals ✨ Let me set the scene: The bathtub? Gold. The toilet seat? Yep, gold. The faucets? Gold. Even the coffee cups—you guessed it. Freakin' gold. The room was dripping in golden details, and yet… somehow it wasn’t tacky. Weirdly, it worked. It felt like sleeping in a palace. Or at least what a palace would feel like if Beyoncé and a sultan designed it together. There was even a little welcome chocolate… in the shape of a gold bar. I mean, come on. That’s attention to detail. I won’t lie to you—I took a bath just because it was gold. I didn’t need it. It was 30°C outside. I was sweating before I even got in. But something about a golden bathtub makes you rethink your life. The Rooftop Pool? Oh. My. GOLD. If you’ve seen the photos, you already know what I’m about to say. But seeing it in person? Next-level. The rooftop infinity pool has actual gold tiles. The water glitters under the sun like someone spilled champagne in it. You float there, staring out over Hanoi’s skyline, and the only thing missing is a butler handing you caviar mid-backstroke.

Vietnamese pho, fresh pastries, tropical fruits… and yes, gold-plated cutlery. I had a croissant with a golden spoon like some sort of pastry prince.

About This Video

Ever wondered what it’s like to sleep in a hotel covered in 24 karat gold? In this video I check into the Dolce By Wyndham Hanoi Golden Lake (aka Hanoi’s famous “gold hotel”) to find out if it’s actually worth the hype—or just a shiny tourist trap. I give you a full room tour from the massive bed (it honestly feels bigger than a king, like two doubles pushed together) to the coffee setup with gold on the rim and handle, plus the minibar, robe, and slippers you’d expect from a five-star stay. Then I take you into the bathroom where the gold theme goes absolutely wild—gold on the shower handle, taps, mirror trim, towel racks, and a bathtub I’ve genuinely never seen before. After that, I head up for a rooftop pool test at sunset (with a quick reality check: no drinking in the pool), and I also show the surprisingly solid fitness center. I wrap it up with breakfast, which is more like a full meal buffet—egg station, noodle station, curries, fried rice, roast beef, pastries, fruit, desserts, and barista-style coffees. And the best part? The price shocked me: about $95.50 USD per night, which is honestly amazing value for money for an experience this over the top.
