Guest repliedI think its costed on business people staying in big chain ( rip off ) hotels that pretty much charge full whack wherever you are. Hanoi is on there at 50ish and you can stay in a 5 star hotel for £100 a night there, but go round the corner and you'll get a good local 4 star + for £8, slap up meal and few lagers for a few quid, new suit for a tenner, etc etcLeave a comment:
